  • I would give a shout out to two makers, Frank Howarth and This Old Tony both do some amazing works in general. Tony does a good amount of metal work, while Frank is almost all about woodworking.

    For some AI (sorta) stuff: Primer engaging way to learn about statistics I guess, I don’t know the right way to describe them but I always leave with something new.

    For car stuff: Rob Dahm who is known for a wild RX7. Also publishes a lot of public data for the rotary community.

    Junkyard Digs who does lots of classic car “restorations” or repairs. Generally tries to do the most accessible methods or tools.

    Tofu Auto Works does mostly custom body kits and so on, shown in step by step processes with tips and reasons/preferences for doing things a certain way.

    For gaming I’ll just throw City Planner Plays out there. He mainly plays Cities Skylines, and talks about how and why certain infrastructure is designed or used.

    Editting to add: sorta (mostly) does gaming, also does other topics as well. Arch fantastic visuals and historical breakdowns of topics. Doesn’t have many videos, but they are quite good.

    And purely because I’ve met him IRL and think his channel is very under viewed, About Here discusses city planning, accessibility and so on. A lot of it has to do with housing and it’s current issues, but has other city/civic related topics as well.



  • Not that you didn’t make the right call, but many of the longer software update “confirmations” (obviously they’re only worth something if they commit to that) happened around that time. Almost any android phone didn’t have more than a couple years of support, until very recently. Naturally, no brand is going to backtrack that far, especially for a completely new phone concept that they knew was going to have issues.

    Something can be said about that on its own, but first gen devices always carry first gen issues, and the news (both people and articles) of the time was very vocal about such. Personally I’m on the side of providing long software support, but not extending to hardware (in niche cases).
