  • Wanted to mention this seems to be fixed, but I was never able to find a tool that could tell me why it was occurring.

    It was ultimately NTP (clock), but it was actually the router clock. I switched PCs and I think my original PC had software to talk to the router, which must’ve been setting the time. It seems like it changed to a completely different time at some point.

    Changed it, then just released/renewed/flushed dns. I also manually turned on the time service at some point and ran a sync from the command prompt just to be safe. and everything is acting normally now.






  • Update: So far i’m down to 2 extensions:
    Ublock
    600% sound volume

    Memory still ballooned from 1GB to 5GB.

    When I checked processes before closing, even after force unloading Youtube under processes, GPU was using around 1 GB. There was literally nothing else I could unload that would stop this.

    Again I loaded all tabs just to be fair…GPU is using half of that currently. I’m also questioning the reliability of about:processes to an extent, because I couldn’t actually see what was adding up to the 5 GB I was seeing in task manager.

    I also tried some advice I saw to just whitelist youtube, as it sounds like google does something regarding adblockers. But this did not seem to do anything noticable.

    edit: based on another post, trying troubleshoot mode, though i’m always uncomfortable having all site blockers (ublock now) turned off.





  • He really shouldn’t. What the guy did was still legally wrong, and he probably knew it and weighed he would rather take jail time and commit it. A less scrupulous person could do worse things, which is why those laws are in place.

    If he could somehow reduce the sentence that would be great, and if that is on the table he should, but some punishment should still occur.

    He’s a vigilante hero for what he did, but vigilantes are still criminals. The main issue here is that the punishment is clearly wrong, and the message is wrong, as the judge seems to think this is paramount to treason, which it isn’t.


  • Basically we encompass everything as black/white socialism/capitalism

    When pretty much every country (including the United States currently ) implements both.

    And the problem is by demonizing socialism as the main economic structure, politicians basically succeeded in shaming people for any socialist policy they disagree with.



  • I feel like you must have been traumatized by this one vtuber that we’re still arguing most vtubers based on a single one despite examples showing this isn’t actually true across the industry…

    Like it’s really not the norm…

    Like this would be like arguing every female cam streamer is flashing their tits for views every 5 seconds. Which would be insulting to your streamer prior to their vtubing of course.


  • Vtubers don’t use up anymore of the screen than streamers do unless they’re doing a chatting screen…which is typically when streamers also use a huge chink of the screen…did you watch them for longer than their initial introduction stream?

    It really sounds like you focused way too much on their comfy pajama appearance…

    Also fanart of animated characters is fanart. You could just…not lookup fanart like you probably did with the streamer (which I assume no art existed since usually streamers don’t have art drawn of them right?..so…just don’t look it up like you were already doing??)

    Like that extra bit just seems to be a you thing…I don’t see how you would have walked into it if you just did the same thing you were doing back when they were a streamer.

    I don’t know what happened to make you feel so strongly about this but it’s just not representative of vtubers generally…I mean even the vtuber in the cartoon in question generally wears modest clothing with very little physics involved…and thats if she’s even in her usual attire. Sometimes she’s a cake or a tree.


  • Weird since the most popular vtubers…don’t have huge titties.

    It is somewhat sad, but basically when you have an avatar you don’t have to worry about people wandering into your chat talking about messy bed hair…or lackof makeup…or that you look sick…

    Your avatar doesn’t change, and leaves very little to comment on after the initial impression. So the people who stay are focused on what you’re actually doing. It makes their lives easier as well.

    I mean there’s male vtubers too, and it has the same strengths. You keep a level of anonymity, and after initial impressions you don’t have to worry about people commenting about your appearance as much.

    I mean I have to ask, if you thought they were real funny, didn’t you keep watching them when they started Vtubing to realize it’s not what you’re making it out to be? Or did them hiding their appearance somehow detract from the experience for you?
