    Imma join the disassembly gang. Takes no more than a minute to unscrew and take the top off, then you take a hammer and give it some direct hits. Could additionally take the magnet that’s inside (or an even stronger one) and give the disks a few swoops if you like. (And now you have a free magnet!)

    Aren’t you basically just describing FOSS and framing it as a complaint? Valve for example has a vested interest in improving their software stack, and they do just that by donating both money and engineers to various projects. If these open source projects did not exist, they would have to spend the same or even more money on a proprietary licensed alternative, or to develop their own solution.








  • You can get all the IDs using yt-dlp

    yt-dlp --flat-playlist --print id <playlist>

    Assuming you’re on linux, you can add >> ids_all.txt at the end to save the list to a file.

    You can also add

    --compat-options no-youtube-unavailable-videos

    to get only the list of available videos instead and then, again assuming you’re on linux, do

    diff ids_all.txt ids_available.txt

    to get the odd ones out. That’s the simplest I could come up with. You’ll have to hope you can use the wayback machine, or a good old exact search to turn up what video that ID actually referred to
