The last gootube downloader immune to goog's latest countermeasures finally got taken down. Not sure how they disabled it or how it worked before. It was a cash cow. It ran too fast to be screencapping. It could have been using logged in accounts or running a browser which constantly reloaded the approved player.
Nowadays, using a burner account is the only way to do it practically. It seems watching a lot of music videos on the same IP address as the downloader reduces the occurrence of the login requirement so they're measuring the ratio of approved accesses to unapproved accesses.
Started opening every video to download in an approved player & letting it play commercials in the background. While this did improve results, it seems to require many approved plays for every unapproved download.
Another functioning gootube downloader popped up, with lots of reset connections.

AI stonk boom took off last week, after months of sideways movement & fed injections. The lion kingdom has as much cash as it did in 2019, before heavily buying stonks like everyone else in 2020. The stonk position then grew to match the cash position in the 7 year bull market. Paychecks refilled the cash position, manely in the 401k.
It's not 1999 yet, but it's getting there. We're probably heading into a 1999 style boom, with the fed printing like mad & similar IPO euphoria. Rising interest rates didn't impact 1999 until the end. IPOs didn't drain the market but caused B2B speculation. In this case, we're going to have IPOs draw money into index funds.
While the internet was a big part of lion lives in 1999, it was a spectator sport for the general public, who were all on dialup & spending most of their time in offline jobs. Lions are now on the opposite end of the AI boom, on the majority spectating side while the minority heavily converts to a prompt based infrastructure.
There were 3 plans for the boom time:
1: Keep enough cash for 10 years & put the rest in stonk.
2: Manetain a strict 50/50 ratio, starting before the bingo point.
3: Let cash & stonk float until the bingo point & then reallocate to manetain a 50/50 ratio.
Letting cash & stonk float forever, becoming cash heavy was never envisioned, because stonk was always envisioned to grow faster than cash.
Constantly rebalancing above & below 50/50 based on market valuation was never envisioned because there's no way to define what's over or undervalued. Lions could conceivably base it on BRK's asset allocation which is now cash heavy.
In reality, lions possibly could now go 15 years on the cash, with no interest, living like a college student. It would disappear faster with tax owed on roth conversions & the kaboom case: tax on an inherited IRA.
There are scenarios of inheritances making lions wealthier than they ever imagined & having no idea what to do with the money. It wouldn't be enough for a private jet or spaceflight, not enough for an intimate encounter with a super model, but certainly enough to burn it all on a dream house or large piano.
If lions had 1 offspring, the next generation might have been those animals with private jets or 2nd homes. Nowadays, with mixed families & polyamory, it would have more likely been split up. It's not really possible to have a chain of single descendants experiencing compounding growth.

Some maximum efforts. Never going to be 40 again.
