      Personaly I think the Megahard Doors 11 is much better than Michaelsoft Binbows 11. And both are better than that new BigMacOS Mountain Bottom that Pear just released. But don't forget that Smasnug can and will for sure release a new competitor to the Ybox and put Twodroid on it. I'm sure they will call it the UwULED edition. But then comes LowG TV and their new AwwLED that will be so bright and colorful that we will all forget about the Binbows scandal. It's all in the Matrix dudes. We can't escape. Not even if you have a Ford Unfocused 2020. It's not fast enough to escape. Vote Trumpet for a better future, because with Bidet in power we can't go far. Or was it the other way around? Oh man

    i appreciate how 2:05 is actually a somewhat sensible command

    • @Iwasneverevenhere
      @Iwasneverevenhere 8 месяцев назад +3

      Having a closer look at it, it does perform two kinds of rotation, but both only produce gibberish:
      The combination of 'rev' and 'tac' flip the base64-encoded data vertically and horizontally, which amounts to a 180° rotation (of the base64 encoded data, which is not very helpful).
      The tr applies a rot13 cipher to the base64 data, which can also be considered a rotation. It also doesn't do anything actually useful.
      Since both "rotations" undo themselves, you could try to treat this as a (very weak) cipher.
      Unfortunately, this will not generally work, as base64 introduces line breaks at a fixed point. Unless the length of the base64 encoded data is divisible by that line length, decoding and reencoding will move the line breaks around, so rotating it will now produce a different result.
      Since PNG is a compressed format, I don't think you could easily rotate it with a sequence of operations like this. For uncompressed formats, it might be possible.
      Also, it's probably possible to create a polyglot file where this exact command does actually produce the rotated image. (bonus points if you make it so that the tar archive can be renamed to .png to be the image)
      Anyway, this was fun to look at. Pretty sure that coming up with this mess was a lot more effort than finding the imagemagick command...
      Thank you for your comment, otherwise I wouldn't have given this a closer look xD

    hello! nice in depth video on this, saw these too where i live in Algeria (which is neighboring Tunisia) and wondered where did they come from. i just wanted to also clarify that this doesn't just happen with TVs but other kinds of products (even ones ripping from popular brands in china like xiaomi), again good video!

      I believe they were made by Vestel & rebadged as Tesla. Pretty common knowledge in the technosphere.

    The one with the three soccer balls is the weirdest one. Like how do you even come up with that idea we need it to be somewhere to Samsung but slightly different how should we change it. Fred got any ideas? Yeah how about we put three soccer balls in the middle instead of the AS and N? Fred you're a genius. Maybe you should be running this company.

    great video! here is what I can say about chinese manufacturers without ever going to china myself:
    I know a Stewardess who visits eastern asia several times per week and does all her shopping there (brought me some headphones and food items one time). the thing she told me was (watch out: anecdotal evidence) that you can buy pretty much everything there on the streets. most stuff is made in china and sold there for dirt cheap. the technology INSIDE of a smasnug 4K OLED Smart TV might as well be the same as inside the official counterpart by samsung! but you can buy it for a quarter of the price because the logo is different. if you buy a samsung or apple product in the western world, most of the money goes to the company selling the product, the same guys who came up with the advertisement, logo and marketing. that's why stuff is expensive most of the time. only a very small percentage is manufacturing/shipping costs. the same applies to sneakers, 200 dollar shoes being made for less than 10. where do you think all the money goes? the stewardess told me that eastern asia and especially china is kinda like the wild west of off-brand consumer electronics. this is where all the fake gameboys were being sold that still said "Nintendo" without any typos on them. she told me she once bought iPods for every single family member there and the price was like 10% of the original full price here in apple stores, although I can't confirm it or have a look at the authenticity of said iPods. do with that information what you wish, I guess it would be interesting to go there in person and film a documentary about the place where most stuff is being made (in weird giant factories) and what the working conditions are like. I think there was a fun scene in 'You don't mess with the Zohan' about resellers in new york trying to sell these off brand products as the real deal. kudos to you and nice work, can't wait for new entertaining uploads
