Never heard of any of these people but well know the song. They are doing it quite well. I may listen to it five times in a row!

I know Billy Strings. He had a concert at that Texas venue they show on public TV.
Austin City Limits I think.

I went to a live video of him, playing acoustic guitar. Not my kind of music so did not even play it a minute. Was nothing like the above.

It's difficult to get me to watch videos. Most of them I am only listening to them.

I WILL be listening to it! Thanks for letting me know there is a new one. Lex will either have many interviews in a short period of time or no interviews over a long period of time. I've love to get a notification from him when he's released a new interview.

Okay, Vinny. The video that dualstow recommended is two minutes long. Lex Fridman reviewed it positively AND donated $100 to the creator. Really the first 10 seconds would be sufficient.

The difference for me is the ratio of overhead to content.

I prefer longer things that I click on once and then I listen for a long time.

Don't like clicking on a ton of smaller things that take just as much time as the longer one. Those smaller ones have a lot of time used up by overhead, non-content.

Right now MSNBC in playing through these computer speakers. TV is on Yankees games. Radio is on to music. So ears already occupied.

I will shortly be going outside to read Bruce Springsteen's biography and will be listening to one of his CDs through wireless headphones.

I get lots and lots and lots of short videos sent my way.

My policy is to ignore just about all of them. I'm a binary, computer person. Either off or on. Nothing in between. If I clicked on one then I need to click on all the others. So maintain the policy of none.

doesnt want to process the implication Lex has autism.

Been trying to keep my yap shut about covid, but every week there's a new twist. Just found https://old.reddit.com/r/myocarditis/

My roommate gave me an edited copy of his card and I wonder if he hadn't, would I have gone along...

Keen, Mosler and the MMT crew made names for themselves calling economists dumb but the Krugman types just dont want people knowing money can be printed. When AI gets bailed out we'll see what the narrative is this time. something something Trump. IIRC craigr said Trump would be brought in to take the heat for closing the border because you cant have a welfare state and no border
