I'm getting bored of looking at the same websites everyday. Please list 2 websites (url's) that you consider to be your favourite. Also list 2 youtube channels. Brief descriptions only please.....

 

My top 2 urls:

https://cointelegraph.com/

Im interested in bitcoin and ethereum. 

 

https://www.drugs.com/comments/alprazolam/

This website is a classic. I use it if I'm ever prescribed antibiotics or pills from my doctor. Reading the reviews from some of the users of certain antidepressants (as an example) shows how screwed up one can become being on some of these pills. Im not on xanax and would never take it. After reading some of the comments I can see how good my life is...

 

Top 2 youtube channels:

DW doco channel:

https://www.youtube.com/c/DWDocumentary

The best documentary channel out there. I cannot find a better doco channel. 

 

Wolf of Wall street channel:

https://www.youtube.com/user/scottmelker

This guy interviews some high level participants in the crypto industry. I like his style of reporting. Sometimes he gets high and does a video. Full respect to the man.

    Too many favourites to be mentioned......a wide variety can be considered a favourite. 

    No such beast as a singular or a couple of favourites. The list is endless.

     

    Of the YouTube class, that's even broader - 

    Small example:

    Voice TV

    PITVFANPAGE

    FCCTEvents

    UsefulIdiots

    Etc.....etc....etc

    For Youtube I love  movies from the 60s or 70s.  Remembering the fashions, the language, places I used to live, etc.  Matt Helm movies, In Like Flint.   And so many songs and music from the 60s I had never heard.

     

      I listen to Thai Radio all the time.  Love it.

    https://radioth.net/

     

      I watch the streaming live High Stakes Poker now and then.  I don't play those high stakes but I do play and have spent many hours in the casinos in Los Angeles that broadcast those.

     

      Finance wise I am pretty set on the path my equities are on (dividends and income) so I pretty much don't have a need to move things around.  But I browse Morningstar for details,  watch bloomberg online when my cable package does not carry it,

     

     I play free poker online.  Would never put real money in to those crooks.  I probably can't post that site but a few hours a week is interesting.   I even play a free slot machine now and then.  Again never put real $$ in.

     

    House hunting for my retirement home or even a rental investment I typically start with Zillow because their search features are pretty good.  Then if I find a property I find the redfin has more information such as crime, flood, noise ratings etc,  for a property.  Sadly, Zillow is often not that up to date and propertie sale or not for sale status is a bit suspect. 

     

      And of course I scan Thai Visa for Thailand updates, and Youtube for some of the daily news and often watch and listen to the Thai News, Thai PBS etc.  I like the language

      

    I live on my sailboat so I like sailing on YOUTUBE along with live events, sports, blowing up s**t, kidnapping, nothing pleasant.

    YouTube Channels:
     

    Daniel LaBelle - the most intense, thought-provoking content known to mankind.

    DUST - short but decent sci-fi movies when you just don't have the time or patience to watch a full-length

    Websites:

    Only one unfortunately. Ever since I subscribed to aseannow.com, my browser automatically directs me to it no matter what I try. Tried unsubscribing from the newsletter, but all that happened was an extra quick load of the homepage + auto login to the website. I tried complaining but that just blue-screened my PC for three days.

    Aljazeera live on you tube and the other western live news channels.

    Ars Technica

    Reddit news, world news, bad cop no donut, public freakouts.

    Liliputing

    Anandtech

    Cnx Software

    I don't subscribe to any YouTube channels, but I watch videos about science, inventions, space exploration, mechanical engineering, all things technical.  I also watch videos about different retirement destinations (in this part of the world).

     

    For entertainment, I enjoy British comedies from my days back in the UK >> Dad's Army, Rising Damp etc.  I briefly subscribed to Netflix, but found it was mostly US movies and US comedy.  Not of interest to me at all ????
