Both are bad, Apple needs to stop the parts locking (like not being able to use all the features on a replaced screen without their approval), and Android companies have to be better about giving support for their phones.

Keep both accountable, let's leave the console wars bs in 2008.

I keep a mini (~100) epub/pdf library on my phone for those occasions.

Weird, I remember when I was in elementary school in MN they used 'duck duck goose', this is the first i've heard of the other variation.

If it's just one large file I just play it on a podcast app (in my case Podcast Addict) and if it's multiple I stich them together with ffmpeg before sending it to my phone.

Every day, I have an app that connects the audio of my pc to my phone through wifi and using bluetooth would just make the whole setup unusable for calls + wifi has better range and audio quality than bluetooth. The whole setup is PC->Ethernet->Router->wifi->Phone for ~30 ms of latency and the app is soundwire.

Here is a thread from 7 months ago where more people noticed the video was plagiarized due to a DMCA of a re-upload: https://www.reddit.com/r/youtubedrama/comments/1391d4o/internet_historians_man_in_cave_video_was/

But to actually answer your question, it takes time to prove (or even notice) when a work has been plagiarized, particularly when the person who did wrong does not mention, or intentionally hides the original source. The Hbomberguy video is about exploring that in depth and the IH video is just one example, not the main topic.

Huh, I was wondering why that was becoming the default everywhare. Time to Re-encode my library so I can carry more of it on my pocket computer. Tech is awesome.

If it crashes hard I look forward to all the cheap server hardware that will be in the secondhand market in a few years. One I'm particularly excited about is the 4000 sff, single slot, 75w, 20GB, and ~3070 performance.
