I usually use 7z as well… mostly because of the higher compression ratio. I resend in zip if I get complaints, but if it’s a large file that barely fits in size on whatever hosting service I decide to share the file on, I just tell them to install 7zip or any other archiver that can open 7z archives. If they don’t how to do it, hey I also offer remote IT assistance 🤷.

Not me, thanks. I would rather pay for my own vacation, but everyone just leave me TF alone.

IDK, seems stupid to me. The whole point of going to a vacation is to get away from work… well, at least for me. Some workaholics out there might disagree, but that’s not me 🤷.

I think there is just way too little data on the subject.

Like, for example, I used to organize some local PsyTrance gigs with DJs mostly (also artists, but the DJ sets were cheaper 🤷) and I know for a fact that at least 1 of the people that DJed on the gigs has a PhD in genetics. The other one, I’m not sure (he said he did have a PhD, but he was just way too plastered at the time to take him seriously).

I think most of them are genuinly afraid to actually say they’re highly educated in this or that field, because of how society might look at them if they do - you’re a decadent human being, you don’t deserve your PhD. Not to mention that for some of these people, this is like an alter ego for them. Some of them have normal 9 to 5 jobs, just like to do drugs and music on the weekends… I don’t have anything against this, of course, but society views these things differently 🤷.

I R baboon.

Mooom, the normies are bulling me again.

Well, at least they’re using Linux.

Most of the days for me… the wank I mean, too poor to be stones most of the time.

Gangsta C++, for the ammo endowed.

Not the likes I’ve seen in some of these clips. Sure, the 1W ones, yeah, you can. 20+W ones, no. The head and the control board alone cost between 1.5k and 2k.

I’m 38… the only thing I have on my name is an apartment. Fully paid, but that’s it.

But, than again, I don’t live in the US or any western country, so I’d have to take that into account as well… and that I have a child.

Apparently, people have way more money than they let on… cuz when I say I don’t have money, I litelarly don’t have money for anything else except food for the rest of the month.

Jesus… things have advanced a lot… apprently, now you can be your own mad scientist…

3D printers and laser cutters are significantly cheaper now.

I’ve fixed a few laser engravers for people that use them for jewelry. The current price of one for, let’s say, ring engraving (3 axes) is in the ballpark of about 7 to 10K euros. And we’re talking about the cheap Chinese copies here, not ones made by brand name companies.

This is still expensive in terms of personal ownership. Unless you use it for uour business, there is no way you can buy this solely for your YT channel.

OK, if that’s the case, then it makes sense.

Jesus 2 mil 🤦… I can dream of making that in 5 life times.

Not a bad Idea, I might just do that.

Then please explain this video.

Nothing here is cheap. Everything costs a lot. And the neuron cultures, I mean… how does an individual even obtain those 🤨.

Haven’t watched that…

Ummmm… that’s a lot of movies…
