I liked his grading of Virginia, myself.
Are you trying to get me demonetized? Your flag has nudity, murder, and an explicit call to violence.

Yes, it is, but afaict it's impossible to make the video fill the height of the monitor — at least not on my 4k monitor. That's why I edit the URL from youtube.com/shorts/... to youtube.com/watch?v=... to get normal viewing behavior — on the infrequent occasions I think a short is worth the effort.

Oh, that fullscreen.
:butwhy:
If I want that I would just F11 like a pleb and deal with the black bars. But... I wouldn't do that, because what's the point?

@Tsaukpaetra said in Random but Not Dumb Videos Thread:

Sometimes I'd like to actually see the detail in the video.

what detail? It's at best 1080p vertical. I refuse to believe you possibly get that much more clarity from an inch of height....

Huh. Well that was interesting. Crazy things happened.
But I suppose a game that's been running for years would probably have to...

TL;DW: Because it's not a USB-C cable; it's a Thunderbolt cable and has a bunch of Apple proprietary stuff in it. It may be compatible with USB-C, but it's != USB-C.
