    Great video! This references the fantastic book Flatland, which helps explain dimensionality in really easy to understand way, and helped me get my head around what a 4th or n level dimension is (and why we it’s so unintuitive for us 3-dimensional beings)

      Is that book okay for a 10yo girl?

    "[download] Got error: HTTP Error 403: Forbidden. Retrying fragment 30 (3/10) ..." Looks like yt-dlp just got nerfed again. Google: We can download all your stuff but you can't download ours....

      yt-dlp works fine for me. make sure you've updated. they now list the js that is used for solving for youtube downloads as an external dependency, so you might need to install that too. look at yt-dlp github, look for yt-dlp-es

      It's your IP address, you're leeching too much without using the prescribed player. After some time it'll start working again. I bet if you go to the web site it will ask you to log in to prove you're not a bot, if you're not logged in already.
