What you did for my country last year is truly appreciated, and I hope your channel grows more in the future so that you get the recognition you deserve. Love the content because you don't try to brag about what you did but always stay with your funny character and stay real in the videos. Once again, thanks.

      Why in the hell does everything need an App? That’s a rhetorical btw, it’s bullshit. You know it, I know it. For lots of things less is best. My Samsung fridge wouldn’t go to the lower temp on the freezer without setting up the app and setting it from there, even though there’s a button inside the door to adjust the temp. I installed the app set the temp to the special app exclusive temp setting, uninstalled the app, and changed the password my home network. Like to hell my refrigerator needs internet access through a Samsung app. To do what exactly? Monitor every time I open the door?

    the PD bag has to be my all-time favorite backpack, the problems you're having are coming from buying it as a camera backpack. it's an "every day", hence the name, bag with features that can accommodate tech and camera gear, not a pro's gear bag. from PD their cubed travel bags are more in line with what you would be looking for (but WAAAAAY more expensive) or just any other dedicated camera bag.
    for a bag that can lug a laptop, lunch, books and other stuff the PD bag is absolutely awesome, more of a student or commuter's gadget though...

    I would never buy an ember cup for myself just because the price is ridiculous...but I was given one as a gift. I just leave the tempurature setting the same and don't change it, so I never use the app 😂. The cup keeps my coffee at a perfect temp and tasting great the whole time I am drinking coffee and for that I love it. But it's not $200 worth of enjoyment and you could get a similar effect with an insulated cup with a lid. I use it everyday and like it, but I still wouldn't buy one for myself.
