Have you ever wonder why old people are bad with computers, yet they seem to be constantly on their phones? Or maybe you've wondered why the smartphone took over the world in the first place! Well, do I have the new video for you: youtu.be/lme9X2pf990

This is how my projector works (in blender)! (please note the perspective is insane here, the light sources are actually very close together)

I've been WAITING for this one!

I think as long as you send it from the email that you used to create the account, I don't think you need to include any personal information (at least that's how I read it in the ToS, I'd love someone else's insight)

That means you have until October 29th to send that email. If you don't send that email, you cannot be part of a class action lawsuit against them if your personal info was a part of this data breach.

Also you should stop paying for Nitro. It's clear they don't care about their customers.

Reminder from their ToS:

"Opt-out. You can decline this Agreement to Arbitrate–and no other provision of these terms–by emailing an opt-out notice to [email protected] within 30 days of September 29, 2025"

That forced arbitration clause that was in Discord's recent TOS update is starting to make a little more sense now... cybersecuritynews.com/discord-data...

Interesting, I haven't come across this yet. I'll look into it, though!

There's an early screenshot when I was trying to match the lighting.

If you are ever worried about making something that looks bad, do it anyways. Making stuff is the only way to get better at making stuff. I made my very first 3D-dude videos on YouTube just over a year ago, and the difference is BONKERS to look back on. New video tomorrow, see you then :)

A comparison of the visual quality of a video I uploaded back in May of 2024 and a video I uploaded in September of 2025. It's just prettier now, that's all!

I'm still very deeply involved with this topic on a daily basis and can say that any local government investing or expanding its use will be apologizing to their citizens before the contract expires.

Mark my words. My video was the tip of the iceberg. It's BAD.

Update: holy butts, batman, they actually agreed with the fair use dispute! No more claim! AMAZING!

For clarity, the video will be public for everyone on Saturday the 27th.

Reject Convenience @rejectconvenience.com · 15d

The new video is LIVE for members.There's a copyright claim on this one. I disputed it as fair use (because it is) but that normally doesn't work out on this platform... so this video might not make any ad rev, so I am really counting on the Patreon this time around!

Ditch the whole lot! Own your media again! I'm sick of renting EVERYTHING.

Reject Convenience @rejectconvenience.com · 20d

Hahaha sorry, I didn't notice you followed me. Thanks for the kind words :)

Reject Convenience @rejectconvenience.com · 20d

I use an iPod and dumb phone, so I don't really stream anything at all, as all the files are just local. I'd be curious what other folks think, though! I'm very out of the loop these days lol
