Both Dictatorial and Ineffective
Quote: Originally posted by j_sum1 ![](images/xpblue/lastpost.gif) |
This smacks of ignorant idiocy. Pyramethamine is a drug used to treat toxoplasmosis and used to be a treatment for malaria. It is not psychoactive
and is not the kind of drug that could ever be abused. |
But...But... making Methamphetamine is ungood, making pyrotechnics is plusungood, so making pyramethamine has to be doubleplusungood!
Seriously, though, I think that YT shuts down these videos via a combination of intention and accident. They use viewer feedback, automatic
algorithms, and maybe some human judgement sometimes, in order to enforce their "community guidelines." Of the type of content they want to remove,
what actually gets a strike seems very arbitrary. Some things might even be deemed acceptable to the people who come up with ideas on what to
restrict, but their codes will weed it out nonetheless. Maybe the whole thing would make more sense if they stated specifically why something was
deleted, but maybe not. It appears, at least on the surface, to be a very random, chaotic process, with a moderate predisposition for removing the
type of channels which YouTube doesn't like. A video of people playing a sport, or cats doing silly things, might be less vulnerable to it than a
video of someone building bombs or encouraging racist crimes, but all are at risk.
I strongly suspect that they give the biggest channels some immunity, so they can keep advertising. Or maybe, they have actual employees to administer
strikes to channels with over say, a million subscribers. They wouldn't want their bots to accidentally scrap such a lucrative channel as King of
Random, now would they?
Don't get me wrong, I think YouTube is unreasonable about what they want people to watch, and I am angry that they target science so harshly. If they
try to restrict more and more subject matters, including science, then those subject matters will begin getting more and more strikes. Still, like
lightning strikes, there will always be an element of chance to what gets hit and what gets spared.
Whatever the cause, it is outrageous for them to target this video in particular. As NurdRage himself said, it is actually safer than many of the
videos on his channel. I really hope he can get the strike cleared, or at least not get any more.
Is it just me or has YT been extra hard on science channels the last year or so? I have been looking at these channels a bit more this last year, but
I've always browsed them off and on. Maybe it's just selection bias, and it's been this bad for a while? If it is a trend, I hope it does not get any
worse.
Glad people are archiving these channels.

I got in touch asking if they were interested in uploading to the site I host. Their reply:

If i should indeed get banned off youtube then i'll consider alternative uploads. I'm not too worried. Youtube has messed with me before. Strong

I have attached a Microsoft Word (.docx) and PDF (.pdf) version of the complete document, accurate as of 11th May 2018. Chemical structures/reactions
were drawn in ChemDraw. I've also attached a much shorter document covering the processing of platinum, gallium, and mercury wastes as documented by
NurdRage and NileRed.
Do tell me if I've made any mistakes!

Is anyone else going through and downloading all the channels posted by PirateDocBrown, Velzee, and 12thealchemist? I had started on the limited
number of sites I knew but have now expanded to everything I can find. I've added a few extra channels covering electronics, engineering, physics etc.
I'm currently 265G in and still have a way to go yet.
I'm using youtube-dl. Velzee has already posted a link. The full command I am using is:
youtube-dl --download-archive archive.txt --write-description --write-info-json --write-annotations --write-thumbnail --all-subs -f best
<<channel_link>>
Is anyone doing anything about the comments? Usually they're worthless but for these channels there are going to be some gems.

Another Good Channel
Applied Science is another great channel!!
I noticed that his channel hasn't been mentioned much here.
I don't think his channel is in any risk of being pulled by YT, but he makes great, notable content.
(I am not Applied Science )

I'm close to having all the channels I could find copied. I'll attach a couple of csv files listing the channels and what I have downloaded so far.
I think I have all the videos for everything except Royal Society Of Chemistry and NightHawkInLight. If anything doesn't look correct please let me
know. Also, please let me know if I am missing a channel.
I have the actual video, annotations, subtitles and summary information on each video. If anyone is interested in a list of all the video let me know
and I'll put it together.
I have not yet started on the comments. I will probably look into that this weekend.

I'd like to say thank you to all of you who are preserving these videos. I regained my interest in chemistry by watching nilered, nurdrage, uc235 and
doug's lab.
I got to see one video by chemplayer and the channel was taken down.
These videos have so much to contribute to our society. Had I not watched them, I would have never had the opportunity to see these reactions actually
being done.
I would not have known how dangerous they can be. Now I know. And hopefully, others know too.
IMHO, youtube asked the wrong group of people to critique their chemistry videos. They should have asked the folks here to do that.
Just my 2 cents / pence / <Add your currency here>

Hosting platform option...
As I understand the problem, we are currently at the whim of whoever is hosting the videos/etc to not delete them. I can almost guarantee that a few
years from now any links to the videos in this thread will be dead, either because the host went out of business, the poster didn’t keep up his/her
subscription, the video was deemed to violate a TOS, the link expired, or otherwise because a butterfly sneezed while flapping his wings in
Antarctica.
I think that Freenet (The Freenet Project) would offer a good solution to this type of problem. The project has been around for a long time, and the
program is a free download. It’s basically a cross between regular web hosting and a filesharing program like Bit Torrent. Very simply described,
the program runs invisibly in the background. When a user clicks on a Freenet link, a tab automatically opens in the web browser (Firefox, etc) and
the request is routed through the Freenet network. The file opens in the web browser (if the file is a web page), or the usual dialog box pops up
(giving you the option to open the file or save it), pretty much like it would if you were accessing a normal website. It’s operation is
practically transparent once it’s set up.
The main difference between Freenet and regular web hosting is that Freenet is decentralized. Each Freenet user designates a fixed amount of space on
their hard drive (10-50GB or so) to use as a datastore for the network. When someone uploads a file to the network, that file is automatically split
into multiple pieces and spread across the datastores of the various users on the network. When someone wants to download the file, the opposite
happens. Pieces of the file are automatically located and gathered together from the different user’s datastores. If several people are offline,
there are normally enough redundant pieces in the network to reassemble the file on demand, hence it is referred to as a “censorship resistant”
platform. This is contrasted with normal web hosting, where the host going offline or deleting the file means that no one can download the file
anymore.
Files can’t be deleted from Freenet once they’re uploaded, unless everyone goes offline and un-installs Freenet at the same time. It’s like
throwing a bag of dust to the wind; you can’t hope to retrieve the pieces once they’re uploaded. Every time someone downloads a file it gets
distributed more widely across the different client’s datastores. The only usual way for a file to disappear from the network is for no one to ever
download it; as new content gets uploaded, unpopular content gets slowly crowded off the datastores.
Freenet can be set up to connect to the network in one of three different ways: open-net mode, darknet mode, and hybrid mode. Open-net is what most
beginners use, as it allows one to immediately hook up to the network and start using Freenet. It’s like the World Wide Web of Freenet so to speak.
It could also be called the Wild Wild West of Freenet as well. Since the platform is censorship resistant it also attracts a lot of off-topic and/or
objectionable content. Pieces of this content will be stored in your datastores. The datastores are encrypted so that you don’t know what they
actually contain, but just the same, I think most people would be uncomfortable with this, even in the name of "free speech".
Darknet mode is much more limited. Users connect only to other users that they approve of ahead of time, instead of connecting to the wider Freenet
community. A given darknet would be isolated from regular open-net users. It would be like having our own private Sciencemadness network. Our
datastores would only contain on-topic (i.e. science-related) material, and our bandwidth would be donated only to other users on the same darknet.
This keeps our bandwidth from being used/abused by open-net users, and also prevents our own content from being pushed off our datastores (since
chemistry videos probably aren’t that popular on Freenet as a whole).
Hybrid mode is, you guessed it, a mix of open-net and darknet modes. At least one person on a given darknet also hooks up to open-net, allowing users
on the darknet to access the rest of the content on Freenet. This in my view is undesireable, as it brings off-topic material into our datastores,
and may slow down access to Sciencemadness users. If anyone tries this I’m pretty sure that I could identify them and have them kicked off the
darknet. It might be an interesting experiment to try. I think that darknet mode would be best for our given situation.
While Freenet is often promoted as providing anonymity to uploaders and downloaders, there are certain attacks that law enforcement or others can
apply to the network to determine if you’re downloading a particular file, provided that they are also a member of the same darknet (and assume that
they are). It’s not intended to hide what you’re doing on the network from others, but is designed to provide censorship resistance, i.e., the
opposite of what YouTube currently does. If you feel that accessing chemistry videos is somehow frowned upon in your jurisdiction, you can always
access Freenet through a VPN, etc.
If anyone is interested in trying this out let me know. We would need at least 5 people to get a darknet running well, and would prefer those who can
keep their computer running most of the time, but anyone interested in playing around with it is invited. We can upload some videos and have some
other users download them and see how the general performance is. Freenet is based on Java, so it will run on Windows, Linux, whatever. There’s a
learning curve when it comes to creating your own website and uploading it for the first time, but it’s not overly complicated. Uploading a video
by itself is by contrast very easy to do. You upload the file through the browser, and it provides to you a link that you can post to the forum, etc.

You could upload them to the Internet Archive: https://archive.org/details/movies

Probably something that every channel should do just in case (it's not going to cannibalise views as not many people know it exists, and I don't think
the contents are visible on a google search).

Well, see, there I go again...proposing a complicated solution to a problem that's already been solved. I didn't know that you could just upload
videos to archive.org. Do they have some kind of TOS for what you can upload? I didn't see any real guidelines when I checked, other than to mind
the copyright laws. That seems overly permissive to the point that I'm sure to be missing something.
I may play around with Freenet a bit anyway. I haven't done much of anything with it over the years, in spite of how interestingly it seems to work.
I find poking through various types of networking platforms to be fun. Perhaps I'll take one of my better posts here and upload it in the form of a
small Freenet website just to see how it goes.
I2P is another option, but I believe that the datastore is not decentralized on that platform, thus the hosting computer would have to remain online
at all times to make the webpage/files accessible. That wouldn't be very useful from a resiliency perspective.

You may also be interested in https://ipfs.io/ - it seems to be gaining a lot of traction lately.
When I initially started backing up these channels I didn't have any plans other than my personal use. Tools like youtube-dl make it so simple it
seemed like anyone could make their own backup. As the volume of material I've collected[1] has grown I have thought about how I could apply it to a
larger purpose.
That being said, I'm uneasy about posting the videos anywhere without the creators permission prior to a video or channel being deleted.
[1] I have now downloaded well over a terabyte of video. Many of the largest channels are not chemistry related but the 1-10 GB for most channels
quickly add up.

The 4 main channels currently on YouTube are
NurdRage
NileRed
Periodic Videos
Cody's Lab
There are a significant amount of others, and they are in a significant amount of danger.
NurdRage did get a strike but I think his appeal was listened to and they took it back. He is probably the most important source for inorganic
chemistry, although his lab practice is a bit messy.
NileRed is my personal favorite and is a valuable source for organic chemistry although NurdRage is probably the better chemist. He is in way more
danger despite his videos being less dangerous than NurdRages. Even though he is rapidly gaining attention, I still worry.
Cody'sLab is probably ok as he is very considerate of regulations. He isnt technically a chemist (he is a geologist) but his videos can still be
considered valuable.
No need to worry about periodic videos.
In terms of what should be backed up, certain videos should have priority such as:
NurdRages sodium synthesis w/ domestic chemicals
acquisition of chemicals
Electrochemistry videos
Purifying Chemicals/extraction videos
Acquisition of pure elements
Safety videos
Videos in immediate danger (NaCN synthesis by NurdRage, etc.)
Complex important organic chemistry videos
Videos with hard to find information
Creation of alkali/halogens/acids/bases
Iodine/phosphorus/benzaldehyde and similarly controled chemicals
Hard to find lab practices
Methods to create sulfuric acid
Lab equipment acquisition
Im sure there are more, but that is a good start for a priority list.

Thanks for taking the time to document so many reactions, 12thealchemist! Great work.
It's interesting to see my videos distilled down to a few sentences, which can still accurately describe everything I did. It made me wonder "How did
I manage to turn that into 15 minutes??"

WGTR: I was rather heavily involved with Freenet at a point many years ago, and was intimately familiar with its architecture and code. It suffered
from extreme latency and reliability issues. Not a great place to archive thousands of videos, because most people simply won't allocate a useful
amount of storage to Freenet. If it tries to find the video, and you've got to retrieve it 15 hops deep... it'll be a month before you're done.
Also, uploading content is a spectacularly slow and painful process. Even to insert a small blog-style page to a KSK or SSK took hours. Worse still,
if the content is unpopular and not accessed routinely, it'll be forced out of the stores relatively quickly (due to typical store size). Then you
have to re-insert it.
I say put them up on a torrent site accessible over Tor. I can't get BitChute's magnet links to work for whatever reason--it never finishes
downloading the metadata and one of their trackers fails every time. And I just can't be bothered to make their setup work when magnet links from
elsewhere work fine.
Hell, I've got an old 1TB RAID from years ago that I just dug out of a box and have no use for. If someone made torrents, I'd be happy to seed them,
assuming the content creators are okay with it. It wouldn't hold everything certainly, but I don't mind sharing what I can for storage and bandwidth
for high value content.
Edit: Skimming through the first pages of the thread, someone mentioned the idea of actual DVDs of Chemplayer's videos. I would also pay for that. The
same goes for NurdRage, NileRed, and a number of others. I buy dead-tree books still, why not have nice DVDs?

@ ChemPlayer--thanks for archiving your stuff. grabbing the OGG archive now. BitChute does kind of have issues, neither the nickel
chloride/borohydride vid or acetophenone one will play for me.

to it. sites like Bitchute and Vemeo takes forever to upload and there are limits to how much can be uploaded in a week.
