As far as things involving the internet go, I uploaded a 14GB 4K video file to YouTube a few days ago on my previous internet (40 upload speed) and it took an hour. With fiber, that same video took 4 minutes. Maybe this will get me back into YouTube (probably not).

Fiber install was today. And it was much more of an adventure than I was anticipating. Tech shows up pretty much on time, which is the first shocking development. I'm used to waiting hours. He thinks it will be relatively simple. This was a mistake. Someone else shows up and is concerned.

After checking daily for over a month (since they finished laying the wire out), fiber internet is FINALLY available at my apartment. I've never placed an order so fast. $35 for 1 gig up and down vs the $110 I'm paying for 1 gig down and 40 up with Spectrum isn't really comparable.

You can bet your ass I'll be paying attention to see if Adobe charges me again even though I indicated I wanted to cancel my subscription. I've seen too many stories of people having to fight them and they do not allow you to delete the current payment method, only to change it.

I finally took the steps needed to completely rid myself of Adobe and its ecosystem. I had only held on to it for web hosting purposes, but I finally am beginning to move my site to a new host. It feels good to do so, even if I have NO IDEA how to work this new service, but that's part of the fun.

It remains wild to me how different Krampus is from Arby (our cats). Arby played as a kitten, make no mistake about it. But Krampus is so different in how she plays. Arby had select things he liked to play with, but Krampus will play with ANYTHING. And I mean anything.

I cannot express how much I loved watching this. Joakim Noah said some pretty disparaging words about Cleveland back in the day, so seeing him decide to come back and see what the city truly had to offer was special. Much respect Joakim. www.youtube.com/watch?v=brT4...

Do we think if I continue to tell Adobe how much they suck they'll actually do something about it? No, I didn't think so either. I really need to move my website off their hosting in the near-future so I can finally fully cancel that subscription.

Things continue be awful in the world, but I did get a chance to try Marathon for a bit last night and was pleasantly surprised with how much I enjoyed it. Given my disdain for PVP and general lack of interest in extraction-style shooters, that was even more surprising. But I had a lot of fun.

MST3K is being revived again, which is the perfect time to talk about why it remains my favorite show ever. notgeriatricyet.blogspot.com/2026/02/the-...

Democratic leadership just continues to fail us at every turn. The cries to abolish ICE have never been louder, but Chuck continues to ignore what the people who elected him are demanding be done. ABOLISH ICE and put everyone involved in this and the Epstein Files in jail. Stop being cowards.

"Everything we do is legal, ethical, and moral." Don't believe ICE and their lies, please help share what's happening in Minneapolis. youtu.be/W1dyNcRGRXY

It's been a minute since I posted, but wanted to make sure my thoughts on what's happened are pretty clear. notgeriatricyet.blogspot.com/2026/01/stan...

datto does deadlock is now live. after 425 hours in the game, i'm ready to devote some content time to it. i really love this game and i'm getting back to some pvp roots with it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=v2JF...

Please take seven minutes out of your day and watch this.

It truly saddens me that an entire segment of our population cannot fathom the idea of actually caring about strangers and wanting to help people out. They cannot comprehend someone just wanting to help another human being because they care. They can't believe there isn't any other motive.

It's insane that I keep opening social media to another atrocity being committed against US Citizens by an entity that has no jurisdiction over them, only to then see the federal government straight up lie about what happened and MAGA is like "yeah, that's how it happened." Ghouls, all of you.

my discord and twitter accounts have been compromised. do not respond to anything i send. please mass report them as hacked/compromised. sorry about this.

Every single time Trump goes on about law enforcement and respect, the immediate follow up should be to ask him why he pardoned people who assaulted police officers on January 6th. We know he'll snap it ignore it, but that should happen EVERY TIME. Same for any republican defending it.

We are now being joined by BRIAN VILLALOBOS (voice of Lodi) and STEPHANIE KERBIS (voice of Blue) on stream to talk about their voice acting careers & their roles in Destiny 2! Please come join us! (& Byf!) 🔴 twitch.tv/falloutplays

Every time a republican member of congress tries to say this murder was justified, they should have to watch the video and clearly demonstrate how. Give us your actual reasoning. EVERY TIME. They won't because they're cowards and democrats are too cowardly to confront. But they should.

Fuck ICE. Democratic leaders either need to do something, or move the fuck out of the way and let actual leaders step in and do the job properly. That said, the fact that so many people are trying to justify what happened is sad. Go find that Jesus you claim to love.

Don't think I've shared it here, but we have added to the pet collection. Her name is Krampus and Arby is so happy to have a new friend. She's slowly getting more comfortable with him, so I expect full chaos here soon.

Will Arnett was on Conan and told a story about how Conan dealt with the death of his parents by accusing Jason Bateman of killing them. It’s so funny.

While it doesn't fix the problems the game has faced, Destiny 2 Renegades is at least a step in the right direction. Very fun experience and felt better than Edge of Fate. Look forward to running the campaign on my other characters and the new dungeon next week.

Talking about how AI is ruining PC tech, then more Destiny 2 Renegades. www.twitch.tv/daveykmedia

Absolutely vouch for 1. B as she's a phenomenal creator, and 2. Elgato's stuff is really good, especially when you can get it on sale like today. Lots of good stuff in there worth looking at if you've been on the fence about their products. I personally use, well, a lot of it.

I love my setup! Mostly thanks to all the @elgato.com products! Good thing you can grab a bunch of them with the awesome Black Friday Deals! - Stream Deck 20% off - Low Profile Mount (my FAV!) 30% off! Check them out with my link: elgato.sjv.io/ATB #Elgato #ElgatoAmbassador

Not me completely reorganizing my tech channel at 1am to update playlists and move videos into more appropriate places while a new video uploads. No, couldn't be me.

I didn't know what else to do with the PC footage I shot last year that didn't turn out very well, so I put it to music and showed parts of the teardown of my previous build, the rebuild from 2024, and what my PC looks like today. youtu.be/AAcgwBEdMr4

Time to tear down my kid's PC and rebuild it on stream. www.twitch.tv/daveykmedia

Maybe I'll give this YouTube thing another go (but probably not) youtu.be/m6g5Mt2vnhI?...

I'm trying to dial in a stable OC on my 9950X3D before I dedicate any return to streaming. I know what's safe, but now I want to find out what the limit is. The system will randomly freeze if things aren't stable, hence why I want to find that point first. Yes, stock is fine, but that's boring.

More than ever I'm convinced people are arguing for the sake of arguing, not because they actually believe the thing they're fighting about. It's all performative and exhausting and I don't understand any of it. Y'all can fight. I'll deal with what I can control and tinker with my updated PC.

Feels like something extra has been in the water the last several days. I've seen more close calls while driving in the last week than I can remember in a very long time, and today I nearly got rear-ended. Naturally, most of the time at least one person involved is on their phone, but not always.

I guess it's good that the rapture didn't happen yesterday (again) as it gave me the chance to finish the main Borderlands 4 story. It would've been a real shame if I had missed that opportunity. In any case, solid experience overall and look forward to end game stuff now.

I just canceled mine. Was already considering it because of the $20 price increase for the yearly plan, but this recent situation pushed me to make the decision.

Is today the day I finally return to streaming? It's entirely possible.

Getting to work right as the internet seemingly cuts out is an ominous start to the day.

Heading out to Cedar Point for the first time in a couple of years and very much looking forward to getting on some coasters with my kid.

I'm finally back on the video creation grind for my friend @alltimebrianna.bsky.social with a new collection of clips from her Twitch stream. Take a look and consider supporting my amazing friend. youtu.be/w3shw5ffY3o

book video is finally out. spent about 150-200 total hours on this mf so i hope for the people that i'm targeting that it's a fun watch. no sweat if you're only here for some gaming though, this is 2 hours long. www.youtube.com/watch?v=0_0v...

I might have to write up a script on my video editing journey. I've used a few programs and learned a couple of things over the years. Could be fun to share.

Took me way too long to give DaVinci Resolve a try and I'm almost definitely going to cancel my Adobe Premiere Pro sub because the free version does exactly what I need and maybe even more. It's also way less laggy than Premiere Pro has been for the last couple of years.

The GCX Charity Marathon kicks off Monday, and we’ve got a week packed with unforgettable moments, incredible creators, and a shared mission: to support the kids and families of @stjudeplaylive.bsky.social. From wild incentives to heartfelt stories, every block helps make a difference. 💜

Now that my two month lingering cold is finally starting to fully lift away, I've had my two most productive days in a very long time yesterday and today. There's still more to do, but the bulk of it is done and it feels good. Now to catch up on all my video editing projects I've ignored.

Lian Li's TL LCD fans are fancy, but the longevity of them has proven to be less than stellar, which is a real disappointment given how much they cost. One pretty much died within the first year of ownership, and now a second one is clearly biting the dust after a year a and a few months.

12 years of doing youtube content and a transition into the next era of the game felt like a good time to upload my 3rd retrospective on destiny, my content creation career and just myself in general. www.youtube.com/watch?v=qNST...

We've got so many meet and greets planned this year, we can't fit 'em in one place! Here's your lineup for the weekend at the @stjudeplaylive.bsky.social booth in Stage 21! Keep a look out for additional lineups happening both days in other Stages! Announcements coming soon. 👀

YouTubers, I am begging - please either go easy on the flashing effects or put a warning like I’ve been seeing more of on platforms like TikTok. Having a seizure knock me out bc of a 5-sec bit that in no way needed the flashing effects really sucks. People die from seizures every day. It’s scary.
