i bounced up and down on my boy's richard to this post
now for pageloss
that's interesting. i wouldn't be surprised if that was the case.
t-series's popularity booming in the past year is directly caused by the boom in mobile internet access in India. their mobile data consumption increased 500% between january 2016 and january 2017, and is of course still increasing steadily. t-series is also a near 40-year-old production and film company. it is an established brand and one of the most powerful record labels in the country. t-series is also a multi channel network that owns 27 properties, so they have plenty of pop culture brands to bring viewers and subscribers.

this kind of growth on youtube is unprecedented, but not impossible. the growth of india's broadband access has been anticipated since as early as 2015. the only thing is, like Nigel mentioned, it's possible Indian youtube accounts are automatically subscribed to T-Series on creation. India has an amount of control over the internet similar to China (though they are far more open), so it's definitely possible.

tony did kony 2012
iirc there were some "Tony 2012" threads back after the Kony video came out.

Also people have noticed that when they opened an account in the Middle East/India they were automatically subscribed to T-Series, which means that the channel may possibly have tens of millions of hollow subscribers that have never seen a single video by the channel. Yet they have us automatically unsubbed from channels because of view activity. Bull, loving, stuff.

you cant just point to a population statistic of a country that only 25-50% of their population even had access to the internet

so you are telling me out of their 500 million (this is a very liberal estimate, actual sources quote anywhere from 200-300 million) internet users, 13% of them are subscribed to this ONE youtube channel that appeared like last year?

thats like saying tom from myspace had the most friends

also how the forget is youtube allowing this, they are so obviously sub botting. they can't break 100k views on some of their videos, yet they gained 50 MILLION subs in ONE year

also they upload enough videos every week that they get near or over 1m views per day. in the last month they got 2.5 billion views.

there's their views over the course of just one week, including today so far.

At some point in september, youtube changed how audio and high quality video is streamed, which broke a lot of downloading websites and extensions. i have a website that works, but does anyone have a firefox extension that still works?

So I brought it up and we ended up adding a digital copy of the game to the $20+ tier backers and up. There was a bit of a snag as we aren't able to add rewards to tiers with backers so the $100 tier doesn't have it listed, however they will be receiving it as well regardless.

Despite this, good call.
great! i'm glad i brought it up.

Off Topic / Re: Why do people (start) smoking?
« on: October 04, 2018, 12:12:11 AM »
i saw an excerpt from some psych book that was talking about cigarettes. one of the big things about smoking is that it's something you can do while doing something else. it's a void that nothing else can fill. it read something like this:
What else are you going to do while watching TV? What else are you going to do while browsing the internet? What else are you going to do during your work break? so on and so forth.
this combined with straight up nicotine addiction makes it difficult to quit.

in terms of starting, it's probably peer pressure that starts it most. some kids do it because their friends are doing it, some people think it makes it look cool. i think right now it's "cooler" to smoke weed, at least where i live. everyone i know who smokes weed or dabs also vapes or smokes cigarettes, so sometimes they go hand in hand.

the visuals are amazing. i'm pledging to the kickstarter.
i noticed there isn't a tier that gives backers the game upon release, not even for the higher tiers. i'm pledging anyways, but why did you decide to not give any backers the game?
