Other Files

That YouTube channel that just wants to do a lot of things at once, and was just doing stuff since November 30, 2015, & hating forced change since November 2017

UPDATE:
This will probably be my very last X/Twitter post ever, as I have decided it just isn't worth it maintaining it for almost 15 years.
I probably might still like some things, but I just feel like this might make some semblance of sense and stuff.
And no, I'm not dead.

@MrSean64 At least Bluesky, but yes.

Morton stepped down as the head of ICE in July 2013, more than two years after the mooo incident.
That incident took place during the 1st term Obama era, whereas their more controversial status today is under the 2nd term Trump era.

Did you know that back in February 2011, uxwbill's personal website on a mooo-dot-com subdomain (and others) was temporarily seized by ICE in February 2011 as a part of Operation Protect Our Children.
It was most likely a semi-automated process.

About 84,000 users of the top-level domain (TLD) mooo were affected back then, and many of them who saw their websites replaced with an ominous notice were understandably upset and wanted an apology and/or accountability.
ICE was led by John Morton at the time.

RIP & HBD to the original Other Files YT channel.
The one that started it all.

A tweet to pin: Other Files is now on Ko-fi

Yes, this is real.

[Other Files @OtherFiles]

@carlos_o2094 Exactly.
I also learned of @ChrisPirillo getting his Facebook account nuked around the same time my YT was nuked, which was mentioned in a vlog titled "My 52nd Birthday was NOT Happy".
Meta *also* relies on an overly ban-happy AI like Google did, but Meta's AI's a lot worse.

[Other Files @OtherFiles]

@carlos_o2094 Who knows?
Even Microsoft got so hellbent on AI that they even let their Microsoft Rewards system rely heavily on AI moderation, leading to unnecessary cooldowns and harsh punishments on everybody, since the AI thinks we're all cheaters with bots & macros.

[Other Files @OtherFiles]

@carlos_o2094 To this day, it still saddens & angers me at the same time that Google would succumb to using AI to abuse the community--including users like me.

[Other Files @OtherFiles]

@carlos_o2094 It got nuked by YouTube claiming it was because of violations of "spam, scams & deceptive content" rules, when I have a feeling that I was caught by their AI's terrible moderation and/or falsely reporting of any wrongdoings by another user on the site.

@QuietKid611 @JasonSt77097165 Those infomercials--especially the mid-2000s ones for the Magic Bullet--are iconic to me at least.

@JaredDiCarlo1 @CNschedules As much as we'd want to have the Vitello/Phuzz dubs or even the original Japanese cut released in the USA, seems like most earlier Shin-Ei Animation shows like Shin-Chan or Doraemon (various iterations) always end up in weird legal wranglings of sorts.

Who knows if this means WB and Sphere outpaints and AI sloppifies Casablanca to piss people off like Ted Turner wanted to colorize it?
Speaking of, here's a good read from Roger Ebert about the colorization fiasco in the 1980s.

In light of the recent @SphereVegas AI slop foisted into The Wizard of Oz, I'm gonna highlight this Twitch moment from last year where @patthenespunk lashes at an old ad for Turner's vandalized/colorized version of Dark Victory promoted by CBS/Fox Video (on Turner's TBS) in 1987
