Let's do this.

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

>>"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?

@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.

(Responding to: "Did this video make sense to you?")

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.

@TechConnectify This might just be the best video anyone has ever made. A VERY necessary video, to say the least.

@techindepth27 @TechConnectify @chrismerkel I'm sure youtube ads give some money, but if I remember correctly he has said in the past that most of the money comes from patreon memberships.
