RyanF9 uses science to explain how Gore-Tex works and why you’re being ripped off.

    An ad for what. Certainly not Gore-Tex. Have you any idea how marketing works.

    Yes the video contains a sponsored segment, like 99.9% of youtube videos. Or newspaper articles. Or any other kind of content on the internet.

    …what I seriously wonder though is if people are downvoting this because it deals with technology that doesn’t contain electrons.

      The way you’ve decided to post this has made it an ad, the first think you see is “Check out brandname and get thing”. Putting a videos sponsor as the post content is generally not recommended.

        I’ve decided nothing that’s lemmy taking the beginning of youtube’s description and putting it there. FortNine (the youtube channel) put that there, because it’s their sponsor for the video. But fine I’ll manually add the stuff after to the post.

      It’s more about patents and trademarks than technology, would be a good submission for a business community.

        It’s a hell a lot more about technology as in PTFE vs. other membranes and actual experiments than random Musk posts. Or, currently at +362 on the sub frontpage, the white house threatening drug patents… not that drugs aren’t technology but I don’t see any pharmacology or chemistry in that article.
