On that I agree with you. Though I find it’s easier to get people to see ones point of view by not going with an aggressive or down putting opening, but rather attempt more of a discourse.
I’ll freely admit it’s more of a “do what I say, not what I do” type ordeal, as it’s not as easy on practice as on paper.
Can’t really say anything about the Camilla series, as I have no idea what it is, but you absolutely have a point with your second paragraph.
There is no reason to make new Harry Potter stuff, or work actively to keep it in the Zeitgeist as far as I’m concerned. I can’t however speak to the motivation of the creator and am gonna go with assuming it’s not out of malice.
I don’t think she’ll feel any consequences from what I think about her books, one way or the other.
Now if I was spending money on merch, events, watching the movies on streaming services, buying the games, promoting her content or what have you, that’s a whole other matter.
But to have a reaction of displeasure whenever I see anything inspired by those works, I’d be mightily surprised if it affects anything. Unless she’s hanging out in my yard looking in the window, and if she tried to do that she’d most assuredly be told exactly what I feel about her antics.
Because J.K. Rowling is a massive loon we’re not liking Harry Potter anymore. If you feel otherwise about the books you stand with all her viewpoints, and thus your opinions are invalid. That’s what I’m getting from it anyways.
Whether an author should be given such power over their works as to be able to sully them retroactively is a whole box of frogs I’m not going to attempt to untangle, but I know I wasn’t even aware who the person was when I read the books in primary school, and to me those joyful memories of a magical world had nothing to do with a hateful old woman shouting crazy things from her castle.
And if anyone reading this thinks I’m implying she should be able to spew hatred and crazy without consequences, you’re wrong. I just don’t think pretending there was never anything magical about the books themselves is the way to go about it.
For the second part of your question, it wholly depends on your input language and keyboard layout.
As a Norwegian user I’d rather shit in my hands and clap than using the plain us keyboard.
Mind you Nordic QWERTY is fairly similar to most other QWERTY variants.
As for a tool, most people I know in a professional setting are at around 75-90 wpm, and never learned touch typing specifically. They just type, a lot, and repeatedly. There are many on-line typing trainers.
When it comes to programming, it’s not about typing quickly. Unless you’re churning out the most mindless of boilerplate it’s far more important to consider how to solve a task and why, then quickly shitting out lines of code.
Mind you this is all based on my experience, and your mileage may vary. Best of luck!
They’ve captured the hopelessness cats exude when begging for food (despite having been fed literally 3 minutes ago)!
My head went straight to D&D and was curious what shenanigans the party was trying to accomplish with his.
As someone who uses the æøå in their native tongue, please don’t. It makes the words sound awful.
I’m still annoyed with stargåte.
I could give a well thought out comment about AI, scraping the web, giving your end users a worse experience in order to copyright their content for your own benefit, or any number of subjects.
However, all I can muster is this:

I simply chose to read it as that, as my head was not up for dealing with the letter soup that was the name.
She seems very polite about looking down on everyone. 11/10 stars.
I chose to read it as JCLDS-PCB, which didn’t help.
In Norway you could make good money as an antenna port removal person, essentially filling it with solder or some such, and making paperwork confirming it had been done.
If you had that piece of paper you didn’t have to pay licensing fees, as it was tied to the antenna port. Funnily enough most everyone with a top box used the scart for television, so it didn’t really make a difference.
Oi! Do you have a license for that tv stick?
Du you, by chance, hear it in a deaf accent?
That’s a matter of some debate.
With all the various neurodivergencies and ways people are wired differently, language comprehension or barriers, not to mention physical or mental handicaps, a video might very well be easier to help someone absorb the information.
I wholeheartedly agree it’s not for everyone, but it is certainly for someone, and the more ways available to consume and process information, the better for us all as a whole. At least when it comes to educational and unbiased content, which seems to be the intention of this YouTuber.
At least someone is making informative content in an accessible format without trying to get me to buy whatever is the brand of the month.
I’d much rather watch that than the videos that should have been a paragraph.
A fellow person of culture!
They know about the flaired base…
That’s absolutely valid, if so I misread the situation. Not always easy getting a read (no pun intended) on written situations, at least I can find it very difficult at times.
