Can’t decide if impressive or horrifying: Nebula: nebula.tv/videos/tfc-c... YouTube: youtu.be/cnloyyWIbhk

From my Mastodon. The people have spoken 😂

"The overall goal at A New Social is to shift the power of social networks back to the people, not the platform makers, by giving them tools that let them move their account, their followings, and leave if a platform ever fails them in some way." 🎯🎯🎯 🗣️ PEOPLE. NOT. PLATFORMS.

Both of my parents recently got the OneUI 7 update and hated it enough to call me to complain. Not because of any specific feature but just because things have changed. Never ceases to amaze me how normal people hate big updates while us nerds think not having them is a problem.

This floating AI turd button in Excel has been genuinely infuriating. It's distracting, laggy and only turns off temporarily. What are the best / worst AI product integrations you've seen? I'm making a list for a future video.

Love a good Sternfahrt ✌️

This is what peak branding looks like! Nebula: nebula.tv/videos/tfc-t... YouTube: youtu.be/SxzDR-fYMAE

Looks like Insta360 is doing a summer sale with some pretty big discounts, especially on their excellent webcams. I have affiliate links if you want to make me happy: Insta360 Link: www.insta360.com/sal/link?utm...

After a brutal fall in 2020, Huawei quietly worked its way back to revenues that almost match their peak again. Their product portfolio is expanding and on paper they are more profitable than ever. How did they do this? Now available on Nebula: nebula.tv/videos/techa... YT version coming soon.

While I *love* companies trying new things, it only took me like 5 mins to understand why nobody else has used an aspect ratio like the Huawei Pura X before. My finger reaches maybe 2/3rds across the screen at best. The whole phone is hilariously unusable with one hand 😁

China has a new flagship chip! Nebula: nebula.tv/videos/tfc-c... YouTube: youtu.be/VgEkGMcKjPw

I dug through some financial statements to make this graph for my next video about Huawei's comeback and it really puts things in perspective

I haven't done a classic hands-on video with a phone in many years, but I really wanted to see what one of these ultra slim devices feels like in 2025, so here we go! Samsung Galalaxy S25 Edge: But why? Nebula: nebula.tv/videos/tfc-s... YouTube: youtu.be/jH1ohg3wHfo

Now on YouTube as well! 1 Month Without US Tech Giants Nebula: nebula.tv/videos/techa... YouTube: youtu.be/7w8jmw96ryA

Many people are thinking about ditching various US tech giants so I thought I'd try out how far I can go. I tried living about a month with as little Google, Microsoft, Apple & co as possible! Here's the video: nebula.tv/videos/techa... (On Nebula right now, YouTube coming later)

Hi I’m a professional YouTuber and I’m starting to have sponsors back out of contracts because tariffs. I’ve done well for many years and I’m not worried about myself; I merely offer this information as an anecdotal indicator.

Looks like we finally found the censorship industrial complex. I'm sure the Twitter Files conspiracy theorists will be all over it any day now. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

I often get more work done in 60 minutes on a Ryanair flight crammed between 2 stinky people than I do in a day sitting at home. There is such power in having no distractions!
