"Mad at the Internet" - a/k/a My Psychotherapy Sessions

[Gatcha Gonna Getcha]

I hope it's Kitty Town (it most certainly is not Kitty Town). It's tasty and a portion of the sales go to helping shelters help cats

I've had them before. They're really good but I've had problems getting it to flow properly using those reusable k-cup. Makes me wanna go back to using a french press.

the COFFEE REVIEW is being UPLOADED.... recorded in stunning 4k 60fps that I had to eventually drop to 1080p30fps anyways because my camera was overheating so it was a fucking waste of time fucking with it at all

"The Caution" sounds like a very mild and English fake superhero.

My landlord won like over $900 from this. I asked him if that could be put towards my rent for the month. He chuckled and said "Maybe if you were a quadrupedal mammal with a 20 inch cock that can magically produce glue after spraining your ankle, you would have a shot"

my camera was overheating

Never in my life have I ever encountered or heard of cameras overheating due to recording at too high a resolution.
Congrats on yet again being first in some aspect.

Just give it the direct link.

Turns out this was my problem. yt-dlp --cookies-from-browser "browser" URL works fine BUT...
I was using the 'beta' locals UI. You need to switch back to the 'Classic' UI and the URL will look like "https://madattheinternet.locals.com/post/NUMBER/name" then it works fine. Now I just need to get my iPad mounted so I can watch while I drive.

"OK guys I'm going to blind react to this because people said its funny" watches 20 seconds, skips 5 minutes,"man what are they talking about" skips 5 more minutes "I'm going to set it to 2 times speed" watches 30 seconds " veto is a pedo (true)" watches 10 seconds "yeah this is fake bullshit, why did you guys want me to watch this shit?"

I love it. It's like a MATI stream if the entire thing was just 90% technical difficulties and fucking around with cables in a closet. It's less 'coffee comparison' and more 'Null spends an hour figuring out how to turn coffee beans into coffee'

So, it is a MATI stream then.

Also, for the gloves, it's cute Josh is pretending the FBI, NSA, CIA, MI6 and every other agency in the world doesn't already have his fingerprints, DNA, retinal scans, etc on-file.

And, Harbor Freight has a wide selection of nitrile gloves in various thicknesses which are great for doing stuff that requires dexterity.

"What else am I gonna do" How about put the Aeropress filter in the right place so it actually filters.

Picking out some stuff for the garden, I described a varietal as "hardier" and almost choked. Goddamn redneck liberal gave me a shiny new racist brainworm.

 

[Kulee Baba]

Too much of a feckless pussy to make the joke on my main Twitter account so I’ll just make it here. Also I don’t want anyone to misconstrue my sarcasm.

“Yes Josh but the Prophet Mohammed only consummated the marriage when she was 9 or 10 years old! Why those were just the cultural norms of the day!”

Holy shit it’s different than your Burger King review from a couple years ago

, Harbor Freight has a wide selection of nitrite gloves in various thicknesses which are great for doing stuff that requires dexterity.

Nitrile.
But yes, their gloves are banging. I'm thinking about taking some into my job site because they're really hardy and durable.

Is there any bigger indictment on how fucked society is than the rise of v-tubers?

Large numbers of young men worshipping cartoon characters? How the fuck did we get here?

Britney Spears, Justin Bieber, Miley Cyrus, whatever, pop idols are hardly a new phenomenon, it's just the parasocial aspect of online interactions and the quirks of J-Pop Idol Culture (which is its own bear to even begin to dig into) creating the most modern incarnation of the pngtuber idol, which has what every other idol has ever wished to have- a mask of anonymity.

I hope you have one of those autistic level coffee brewing systems. I don't even drink coffee, but watching people take their time to make coffee with brewing kits that can cost thousands is relaxing to me for some reason.

Espresso one that includes cooking your own beans.

And just a fancy one cup coffee maker.

Any way to enable downloads on Locals? Liked Gumroad as it was easy to download so I could stick them on my phone for when I didn't have Internet access which is often spotty when I travel.

I'm a bit late to the party but as someone else mentioned, yt-dlp works. Here's the command for anyone else needing it:

yt-dlp -f "bestvideo[height<=1080]+bestaudio/bestvideo[height<=1080]+bestaudio/best" --cookies-from-browser firefox -o "F:\YT-DLP\%(upload_date>%Y-%m-%d)s_%(title)s.%(ext)s" "https://webapi.locals.com/api/v1/posts/content/hls/playlist/<PLAYLIST_ID>/<FILE_NAME>.m3u8?vt=<TOKEN_ID>"

EDIT2: Obviously, replace F: \YT-DLP\ with whatever folder you're using to download stuff to with ytdlp.

To get the m3u8 URL, open the browser dev tools with CTRL + SHIFT + I, go to the Network tab and write "m3u8" in the search bar. Then, reload the page with the video and start playing the video. You should see something like this:

Just copy the link there under the File column and paste it at the end of the yt-dlp command.

NOTE: I think you DO need the token after ?vt= too, if I try to download the file without it I get a 404 error in yt-dlp. So make sure you copy the whole link.

BTW, I got the --cookies-from-browser idea from this post: https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/issues/1827#issuecomment-1494811340

Helps to read github issues for ytdlp sometimes!

EDIT: Forgot to mention, I tried this with Brave too but I had some issues, using Firefox for cookies seems to just work for me.

The Brianna Wu Hyper Bimbo superchat namesake arc finally came full circle. Good MATI lore moment.

Those are all real people with talent in singing and dancing. Not computer generated cartoons speaking in cutesy little girl voices. That very much makes it worse. You can understand people lusting over real, attractive people like Britney and Justin.
