Another saw a ship leave our atmosphere and shoot through a green circle and go through a gold explosion and disappear and more.

Imagine, the algo detects game content in this unrelated video, so bumps it in the "gaming" category. It pops up in the suggestions for people who normally watch/like/subscribe to a lot of vids in that category. But after a few hours not a lot of those people have watched/liked/subscribed to this channel, so the video was not relevant in "gaming" after all, in spite of being so popular in general, and in spite of featuring gaming content.

    Re: Pluto, I still agree with the IAU definition because we do very much teach about dwarf planets which very much lines up with what they said of "1000 planets but also the big 8". Yes the neighborhood argument is shoddy since any day we may find two extrasolar planets in the same orbit but when you look at the solar system, you can't lump planets like Jupiter, Uranus or Venus in the same group as, like, twelve near-identical lumps of ice in the Kuiper belt

    Me and my now ex used to religiously wait for each one of your videos to release and we’d make a point of not watching it until we watched the video together at the same time. It was one of my favorite little things about our relationship and getting psyched after knowing you uploaded and laughing our asses off to the videos were a fond memory. This is the first video I’ve watched after finding out she cheated, and even though I can’t really laugh at it yet. I smiled for the first time in weeks, and I’m proud of that. Thanks internet historian, keep ‘em coming

    I used to work at CERN. While the LHC is not running you may be able to book tours to the detectors. (Those are the places where the particle streams colide)
    If you go to Geneva some time you should try and visit. It is one crazy impressive piece of equipment.
    They are running a lot of interesting experiments.
