    Bugs and patches are called that because they were literally used in old punch-card computers. Sometimes a moth would eat a card, or a misplaced hole had to be taped over with a patch. Crazy how words like that start.

    The fact about hot and cold water having different sounds is amazing. For some reason, I'm surprised at hearing it, and yet I've been subconsciously aware of the fact that they do indeed have different sounds.

    I certainly got a useless fact, Doomguy has a death animation!

    4:10 Yes, that’s why computer errors are called bugs. Famously so.
    But no, that first bug wasn’t a virus. It wasn’t spreadable from computer to computer.

      tho one could say some other moth[s] hopping around different computers are being a virus hehe x]

    The anti-piracy ad was also on shit tons of VHS cassettes (yes, even in 2007 they were still quite popular). I remember watching LOTR on VHS, and the anti-piracy ad was there. Luckily ads on VHS are super easy to fast forward, and I've always enjoyed how the image just gets so much faster, with the lines across it, which ended up being an iconic fast forward effect in both CZcams and professional TV show productions, and it literally was just a byproduct of the fast forward feature of the VCR where the head was still spinning and transmitting the video signal to the TV, while the tape fast forwarded, which inadvertedly mixed various frames together into one, which in turn created these iconic white stripes across the screen, those were the divisions that marked the transition to another frame. I always found it really cool.

    Nintendo also existed around the finishing of the Eifel tower and the Gameboy released around the 100th anniversary of the company.

    That's really interesting about there being more trees than stars in the Milky Way. I didn't believe it at first, but I looked up the estimated number of each separately, and it seems to check out.

    Far more interesting than the Jack the Ripper/Nintendo thing is that Nintendo almost got nuked. Kyoto was going to be the original target instead of Nagasaki for the nuclear bomb the USA used on Japan, but the secretary of war at the time believed it was too culturally significant. It is believed he also went on his honeymoon there.
    We could have been living in a world without Nintendo if it weren't for a couple people changing course. Pretty crazy.

    Lol I'm not very old but I remember gathering around the family computer with my siblings and dad choosing which movies we wanted to order from Netflix. Definitely strange to think it wasn't always a streaming service.

  • @pumpkinmaryam5500

    i wonder if someone being a twin means theres more than 6 or 7 dopplegangers, or if that number is the same regardless of if someone in your immediate family looks nearly identical to you

    • @NatetheNerdy
      @NatetheNerdy Před rokem +6

      That number means on average, each person has about 6 doppelgangers, but every person's exact number will be different. Some will have just a single look alike, some will have dozens, but on average it's believed to come out to 6 look alikes per person.

    Bugs are called bugs because of real bugs, so it's not that crazy to think that bug luterally came from a bug on the machine.

    6:33 Can't help but wonder if this difference is simply due to slightly differing pouring. A human obviously can't pour water in the exact same way twice.
    I wonder if there's been any experiments done where water is being poured and participants have to say whether the water is (sounds) hot or cold -- 2-tailed so that even when the experiments guess the other way round (saying all the hot water is "cold" and all the cold water is "hot) the results are still significant.

  • @sugarblunt
    @sugarblunt Před rokem +2

    It would be weirder if hot water and cold water did sound the same how do you think there’s gonna be a molecular change and that there wouldn’t be a molecular sound change it’s just logic. Do you think a pot of boiling water is going to sound the same as an ice cube? You realize that when somethings heated up the molecules start bouncing around therefore you would hear the sound of that and when it is colder, they are slower so you would hear the sound of that this is basic middle school stuff my guy.

    3:24 you’re assuming here that he hasn’t already been talking to women behind her back I mean, if she’s talking to people on match I’m guessing that he’s talking to people on match and I’m guessing that he wasn’t too happy in his relationship if he’s making a dating website, come on. His affairs just probably never ended and anything serious.

    Not sure if anyone has said it already but that anti-piracy one is wrong. The stuff about Rietveldt is mostly true, but it was for a different anti-piracy ad and has nothing to do with the Piracy, It's a Crime ad.
