@BoydStephenSmithJr @almino I have watched the video couple of times now and have seen no ads. And even if I did, I don’t see the point in throwing a fit about it. There are more important things to get upset about than couple of ads in an informative video.

@TechConnectify I am not completely through your video but have an interesting videolink to the recycling problem.
It's completely in German but it shows a process to completely separate all layers of a solar panel to get pure materials for new panels.Or on yt

Let's do this.
us, yesterday evening “we've just spent the day looking at conference video, we're tired, but the laptop is already connected to the big(-ish) screen in front of the couch, let's watch something lightweight, like @TechConnectify preaching to the choir¹ about how cool solar panels are”
us, yesterday evening, a bit more than one hour later: “ouch”
but it was the good kind of “ouch”, because those things needed to be said, thanks for doing so
¹ at least in our case

@TechConnectify This may be your best video yet, certainly the best not on dishwashers or christmas lights.

@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.

>>"Interpreting that as a “request” involves adding in as much context on your part as interpreting my comment as a rebuke."1st half: Genuinely, what purpose does a question mark serve if not to indicate a request?
2nd half: You got me there!
I absolutely agree that, had I given your words the same benefit-of-the-doubt I'd applied to the "TL;DW?", your statement *could* have been intended as a completely earnest suggestion without even a HINT of disdain or rebuke.
Were they?

@TechConnectify @GoodNewsGreyShoes Make sure to watch the entire thing.
@gudenau Absolutely will do!
I won't be able to until after work today, tho.

@GoodNewsGreyShoes They were. The video is well worth taking the time, and almost anyone (myself included) will come out of it more educated.
[edit] I’ll also add; some lessons are better learned not through a summary but through the actual process of learning. A summary and an education are different. Otherwise school would be a week of cliff notes and done. These are topics I feel deserve learning; because the summary isn’t really that new.
There’s value in spending time.

Technology Connections Oh man, right-wing heat pump and dishwasher spaces must be in a wild tizzy this weekend. This is going to be worse than all of the people suddenly asking why Star Trek had to go and get all “woke”.

@mattwilcox I can accept that, & apologize for assuming otherwise.
I genuinely agree with everything you've said, here!
You're absolutely right about the merits of this video & thorough study itself, & I certainly hadn't meant to suggest I believed otherwise. >"A summary & an education are different"
Precisely! A summary (tl:dw) is *not* meant to replace watching the video (it never could!), but to ADD something: your personal take-aways!
TL:DW is an accessibility aid, not a substitute.

@TechConnectify This was amazingly well researched and put together, like most of your videos.
Hopefully this will get some people to understand the importance of moving on from fossil fuels many instances.
I came for the video and stayed for the amazing rallying cry during the latter part.
Keep up the amazing research and thank you for speaking out, though it's unfortunate that you felt like you had to.
