  • For anyone that doesn’t know, SponsorBlock is just a extension where someone marks a part of video as:

    • Sponsor (/Ad)
    • Self Promotion
    • Interaction Reminder
    • Highlight (to skip to)
    • Intermission/Intro Animation
    • Endcards/Credits
    • Preview/Recap
    • Hook/Greetings
    • Tangents/Jokes
    • Non-Music Sections (in Music Videos)

    You can then set what it’ll do for each caregory: auto skip, put a button you click to skip, color the seek bar, or obviously just do nothing but let the video continue normally.

    It’s so nice, I actually use it most for auto-skipping intermissions in recordings of live content these days… It even records how much in total: I’ve skipped 9688 segments (totalling 14 days 15 hours 3.5 minutes) since I installed it.

    This picture is of Elizabeth Homes. “In 2018, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) charged Theranos, Holmes, and former Theranos chief operating officer (COO) Ramesh “Sunny” Balwani with raising $700 million from investors through a fraud involving false or exaggerated claims about the accuracy of the company’s blood-testing technology; Holmes settled the charges by paying a $500,000 no admit no deny (NAND) fine, returning 18.9 million shares to the company, relinquishing her voting control of Theranos, and accepting a ten-year ban from serving as an officer or director of a public company.” There was no “Accidentally”, it was intentional to get money they didn’t deserve.

    But to those of you who think it’s a relatable meme about imposter syndrome using a random image of an average person in an office environment… yeah the world feels complicated. If you’ve been completely honest to others though, your very presence in that role is the only proof you need to show you actually do know enough.


  • I listen to ambient nature noise (thunderstorms are a favorite) with noise-canceling headphones while laying in bed.

    Still technically electronics, but it doesn’t require any active attention, so it does a great job at transitioning my brain to a state where falling asleep is easy, while still being stimulated enough in the meantime to avoid being restless/bored.
