I created a little script that ran on startup that would wait a random amount of time between 5 and 15 mins and would just hit the left key once. I dropped it on a dev’s computer when he left it unlocked and forgot about it. After weeks of torment, it activated while he had a YouTube video so he figured out it wasn’t his fault. He was convinced it was the keyboard and started harassing IT so I had to come clean.

Jokes on me though, every time there was any quirk on his computer, server, or with his code he blamed me and didn’t believe me.

I had no idea until I read Katy’s comment, it’s a game changer

Holy crap that’s exactly what I was looking for, thank you!!

I did this as well but the other accounts get ads because the premium only applies to my first account. Terrible user experience and Google go hand in hand

It really is wild how a company can be so massive yet unable to do basic UI. I got a notification that someone replied to a YouTube comment I made so I clicked the notification and it opened up YouTube’s landing page. I tried to find notifications and couldn’t so instead I tried to find a page that has my comment history.

I had to look it up and apparently you can’t even find it on YouTube, you have to go to a separate website, my activity.google.com.

I wish there was a feature like this on YouTube. I’d love a profile for watching educational videos, a profile for feeding me cool videos when I’m high, and a profile for when my kids want to watch stuff. I’m tired of vibing and listening to music videos only to get hit with a language learning podcast or Disney songs.

It’s insane that they have an incognito mode that still serves up ads even though I have premium.

That sounds like complete damage control lies. Why would the AI think the chef had finished prepping the sauce just because there was heavy usage??
