Pretty accurate. I haven't seen it on Amazon's site specifically, but Hololive fans are in shambles trying to buy $100 worth of merch and seeing $145+ import fees due to China

But, dont those products come from japan? I know Amazon became Chinesium during the KungFlu but, really?

They do not, they are made in China and imported to Japan. Since they are imports, they are tariffed as a luxury good. This is the consequence of sending all of your manufacturing to Chinese sweatshops. China produces incredibly cheap goods due to slave labor, companies purchase those goods for insane profit. Now the government is getting a slice of the pie to discourage these imports, and hopefully get countries to start industrializing again.

Over the past few days, I've finished archiving the entire 'GameBoomers' channel. Audio only, because each of these videos is around an hour long and the channel has more videos than subscribers.
Most of them didn't even have enough views for YouTube to auto-generate captions.

There's probably a snowball's chance in hell that Null hosts this, so does anyone have any ideas on how I can get the size down?
Each audio sample is 128kbps.

Its weird because I havent seen anyone but Trump himself say that Amazon putting the price thing on stuff in relation to tariffs would be a horrible idea.

Amazon is 90% chinese knockoff slop nowadays and I think that having the prices reflect that, and be honest what you are paying for when prices go up, is a direct benefit to the consumer. i.e. Two things are $120, one made and shipped from America, and another a knockoff that is normally 80 and marked up $40. You are more likely to buy the normally $120 one because its likely to be less shit because its objectively worth more than the chinese knock off.

Arch did not enjoy the tucker video and thinks that Dev has dropped the ball. Probably not to the point that he's going to actively disassociate with him, but he's very pissed off about it.

It's always a "joke", but with a mask to hide their anger, huh?

He would have been better off making it a series, slicing it in 7 30 minute parts or some shit. But what he produced wouldn't really work as that since he also used so much footage to do the talking for him and a lot of the video is just news footage played with no comment by him.
Click to expand...
He would have been better off doing that for his whole channel, but his insistence on "waiting for all the facts to come out" unsurprisingly ended up biting him in the ass more ways than one. Had he decided that he wanted to focus on sociopolitical current events and pumped out frequent "facts as we know them" update videos, he'd've been more likely to actually have a healthy Youtube channel where he could have paid Dave and Naomi as part of his actual production crew. It's just one of many stupid decisions on how to run his Youtube channel but the one that ended up most damaging his credibility, especially after the Ruby Ridge take.

Really depends on the video codec used and how compressible it ends up being and the compression algorithm you use for the whole archive. You might be able to get it down further with a lossy archival format if you don't mind the quality suffering a bit.

I think I've found a way to compress by ~85% while not sounding like shit.
This may be over optimistic, but I think I can get it to around 50GB if I spend a long time re-encoding.

Edit:
I've managed to compress portions to about 1/20th the size.

I used a new audio codec called .dac which had basically unnoticeable audio compression at 8kbps, but it's currently not supported by media players.
Since not even ffmpeg supports this format yet, it needs to be re-encoded into a normal format for now.
I'm including a sample to make sure others can properly decode it and I didn't fuck it up.

pip install descript-audio-codec
This will probably take about 1 seconds per minute of audio; a 1 hour stream took me 1 minute to decode on an RTX 3060 12GB.
Python: 
import dac
from audiotools import AudioSignal

# Download a model
model_path = dac.utils.download(model_type="16khz") # Compressed using 16khz model
model = dac.DAC.load(model_path)

model.to('cuda')

# Load audio signal file
#signal = AudioSignal('input.wav')

# Encode audio signal as one long file
# (may run out of GPU memory on long files)
#signal.to(model.device)

#x = model.preprocess(signal.audio_data, signal.sample_rate)
#z, codes, latents, _, _ = model.encode(x)

# Decode audio signal
#y = model.decode(z)

# Alternatively, use the `compress` and `decompress` functions
# to compress long files.

#signal = signal.cpu()
#x = model.compress(signal)

# Save and load to and from disk
#x.save("compressed.dac")

# point this to the .dac file you want to decompress
x = dac.DACFile.load("compressed.dac")

# Decompress it back to an AudioSignal
y = model.decompress(x)

# Write to file
y.write('output.wav')

Noteworthy points about this week's Seeth:
  • Dev plans on doing the trucker video some time this month. He claims to be 75% done with it, and figured he might as well kick it out.
  • After the trucker video, he will do a response video for both Kirche and Ace. He did not clarify if he would do the same for Ayden, Scrump, or Uzalu.
  • His channel rebrand will come after all of these videos are made.
  • Dev got offended that one of his orbiter, Mama Octo (also a troon), doubted that Dev will get the Kirche video out. But Naomi rightfully pointed out that Dev has had a constant streak of overpromising and underdelivering.
That is all that is worth talking about for this Weekly Seeth.

Tell them that they support Chinese slavery and are anti-workers rights. Also buying Chinese garbage is and has always been optional.

The fuck is he going to rebrand to? And why? He's too petty to do anything but politics. I kinda feel like thats him setting up an out for when the kirche/ace vid comes out and it turns out to be crap.

I think the consensus is that he's dropping the 'shortfatotaku' moniker. I don't remember him ever talking about anime or Japanese culture, and he probably wants to move away from the self depreciation of calling himself short and fat.
