@TechConnectify I love your videos! This one was amazing. Also, I'm not in the US but fuck Trump and the republicans.

@TechConnectify Thank you so much. I'm sorry it has come to this but you more than met the moment.

It seems pretty clear, at the end you consider the US to be in the early stages of fascism.
Have you thought about writing anything explaining this?

Loved this video. Thank you. -

@TechConnectify Dude, my God, incredible video, all 92 minutes! Thank you for a shot of hope!

@almino @Janne_O I don't claim the video should be public domain, but I do claim that someone else publishing it on PeerTube could be a violation of any copyrights on the video.
Monetization affects both the impact of illicit mirroring and the incentives for creators to mirror (or migrate entirely) themselves.
@BoydStephenSmithJr @almino my point was that people who “suffer YouTube ads” shouldn’t have any issues watching this video on YouTube as it has no ads as far as I know.

@Janne_O @almino Depending on country, YT inserts its own advertisements into videos even when the creator is not (or cannot) monetize the video.
They've been doing this for about 18 months, IIRC.
EDIT: https://www.pootlepress.com/2025/04/can-youtube-show-ads-on-your-channel-if-you-turn-off-monetization/ says they've been doing it since 2020, but not if Alec is part of the YouTube Partner Program (idk if he is). Google's support pages confirm the current state: https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/2475463?hl=en
(I've had YT Premium since it was "YT Red" and given away free with what was "Google Music" so I often don't notice when YT changes how much they advertise.)

Thank you for plainly and passionately saying the things that need to be said, and for setting a powerful example for those of us who feel as deeply about these things as you do. I have more admiration for your courage and conviction than I can readily articulate right now.

@TechConnectify Man, quite a video. I suppose going to my library to ask about this stuff is a good idea. Hopefully we can get things fixed soon.
@gudenau @TechConnectify TL:DW?
(I do plan to watch it, but would love to hear what parts stood out most to you.
) -
@utf_7 @TechConnectify Then educate yourself and watch.
@mattwilcox That's an oddly sharp rebuke to level at a stranger who asked someone else for help.
What made their request so objectionable, to you?

@GoodNewsGreyShoes They didn’t though. They said “TL;DW?”.
That’s not asking for help. That’s an incredibly terse way to say “what you made is too long and I didn’t watch it”.
Interpreting that as a “request” involves adding in as much context on your part as interpreting my comment as a rebuke.
In both cases; the “request” and the “rebuke” are not in the original statements.

@TechConnectify I was gonna make a joke about I hope he explains the refrigeration cycle again but that last 30 minutes was everything I could ask for
@jakobpunkt
After many videos talking about a way to make ice, this one explains how to abolish it

@TechConnectify It was sooo good. Thank you!
Make sure to watch all the way to the end

@maruno @TechConnectify I built my own 20kWh + 5kW off grid setup, batteries included, for about 2000 euros.
LFP cells cost about 40-100 per kWh, you just have to add a BMS, inverter and some cables.
The expensive part is people. Same goes for the panels; 5kw of panels is 500€, but getting them put on your roof and cabled and all that costs (sometimes tens of) thousands, because there aren't a lot of people who do it and they want a high profit margin.
Happy to show you how to do it though
@anthropy @maruno @TechConnectify My budget to install 8kWp on my roof in Belgium when I bought the panels in 2023: 4K€ panels, 2K€ supports, screws, cables etc. 1.5K€ inverter and at least 50 hours of my time (not finished yet). Today the panels part could be reduced to 2K, but the energy policy makes injected energy worthless, so I have to account for a battery for when my EV isn't charging.
Panels are cheap but we're often forgetting the other equipment and work needed to install them. -

Panels are cheap but we're often forgetting the other equipment and work needed to install them.@aris @maruno @TechConnectify Batteries are also cheap if you know where to source them, same goes for the inverter; 1.5k sounds like a fancy one, I got two offgrid inverters each capable of 6kW+ for less than 500 a piece, and roughly 15-20kWh worth LiFePo4 cells for 800 ish, a BMS for 250.
I'm guessing my situation made them easier to install though, as I'm putting them down flat on my carport with clamps on the sides, my 5kWp took roughly
5-10 hours. It honestly depends on your situation. -

Where would you recommend buying batteries in Europe? The prices I found were around 300€/kWh so way more expensive than what you tell me, but I haven't done thorough research yet (I wanted to study my overnight power requirements first)

@aris @maruno @TechConnectify I actually source them straight from China, because they are the king of LiFePo4; in 2012 ish western manufacturers choose to go with nickel-cobalt chemistries, which are far more expensive, because at the time they had a much bigger capacity per weight. These days they're very similar.
To add, China tried to flood the western markets with cheap EVs but got held back by regulations/taxes so they have a huge oversupply of these batteries and sell them for dirt cheap
