Ubuntu spotted in the latest Mark Rober video

Leaves the help/tips app icon in the dock. Proof Mark Rober is a psychopath.

This is already clear from using GNOME and Ubuntu

For the uninitiated, who's Mark Rober?

LDS former NASA engineer that makes silly devices and gadgets. Some interesting videos, though he's big into the clickbait game. Seems at least relatively sincere in his push for encouraging interest in STEM with children, though he can be a bit "flash over substance" for my tastes. But he is better then a lot of others I've seen in that regard.
- he's big into the clickbait game
  Don't hate the player, hate the game.
  Smarter Every Day did a video on using clickbait titles and thumbnails. The data is clear: everyone complains about it, but it performs far better than anything else on YT. And if the goal is to most efficiently spread educational videos to the largest number of people, then unfortunately, it's really the only option.
  TBH, the tone isn't that different from Bill Nye. Wacky colors, loud obnoxious personality, gotta get kids excited about science somehow.
- In the rock paper scissor robot video he went full mr beast. Good channel going down drain.

  Seriously. I used to like his stuff but lately it's just way over-produced crap.
- LDS?
- he's flash over substance
  Yeah, his audience is somewhere around the 10-16 demo I imagine. Needs something engaging or they'll move on. I imagine the idea is if he can get them a bit interested young that they might pursue stem, and then do the actual substance there.
A former NASA engineer that started a youtube channel where he showcases the tech projects he works on. You may know him from the Glitter Bomb series where he humiliated a lot of porch pirates.

Let's burn him at the stake for supporting snap

\s

You act as if Snap was bad in any way. Proprietary backend does not equal bad.
Edit: Most people don't care about FOSS vs proprietary. And the snap client is FOSS anyways, plus it's capable of installing snaps from local files.
- I will not use a system with snap and has nothing to do with being proprietary.
  One of the reasons that I could not use Ubuntu is that I cannot control using snap or not. They even use it to install apps that you install via apt.
  The fact that the only time I did use a system with snap left me with the impression that it is an absolute performance pig certainly does not help.

  I don't give a rats ass if things I use are propietary or not. FOSS is obviously nice to have, but if something else does the work better I'm all for it, and have paid for several pieces of software. But Ubuntu and Snap (which are running on the thing I'm writing this with) are just objectivey bad. Software updates are even more aggressive than with Windows today and even if I try to work with the "
  <this software>
  updates in X days, restart now to update" notifications it just doesn't do what it says it would/should. And once the package is finally updated the nagging notification returns in a day or two.
  Additionally, snap and/or ubuntu has bricked at least two of my installations in the last few years, canonicals solutions has broken apt/dpkg in a very fundamental way and it most definetly has caused way more issues with my linux-stuff over the years than anything else, systemd included.
  Trying to twist that as an elitist point of view with FOSS (which there are plenty of, obviously) is misleading and just straight up false. Snapcraft and it's implementation is just broken on so many levels and has pushed me away from ubuntu (and derivatives). Way back when ubuntu started to gain traction it was a really welcomed distribution and I was a happy user for at least a decade, but as then things are now it's either Debian (mostly for servers) or Mint (on desktops) for me. Whenever I have the choise I won't even consider ubuntu as an option, both commercially at work and for my personal things.
- Telegram's client is also open source. The servers are not.

How is this - at best - not akin to trainspotting?

This is really cool. Thanks for sharing the link!

That guy's a chad.

Who? Oh, that glitter bomb douchebag has sixty million subscribers.

Found the porch pirate.
- 😂
Such missed opportunity to put pipe bomb.
Your boos mean nothing; I’ve seen what makes you cheer: staged revenge porn.
- ... What? Staged (or not; I doubt ppl suddenly stopped doing disgusting crap on the web) revenge porn isn't an over-engineered non-solution to a widespread (?) problem, so idk how it's similar.

Who?

Edit: nvm it's that clickbait glitter guy who harassed the poor for views

Harrased the poor? What?
- Built a booby-trap device to cover porch pirates in glitter. Oh no, such a disgrace.
