Forgot to link the trailer on Nebula in the body. ๐Ÿ˜… Thanks for the reminder. Right now, Nebula lists 10 episodes out to May 25, followed by a "Part 2" coming June 1.

fyi you can embed images directly by adding a ! in front of the alt-text/link-text

Thanks for the tip. For some reason, I just didn't do that this time. Sleep deprived brains are weird ha.

DmMacniel@feddit.org · 4 pts · 154d (4 replies)

Get some sleep dude :)

TehBamski@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 154d (3 replies)

Oh trust me. I wish I could easily do so.

Just close your eyes duh

TehBamski@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 153d (1 reply)

Tell that to my continuous thoughts and feeling, brain.

Nutteman@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 153d

I will not

mysweat@ani.social · 24 pts · 154d

Omg we're so back

psx_crab@lemmy.zip · 16 pts · 153d (8 replies)

First its Jenny Nicholson, now Tom Scott. Is this christmas?

TheTechnician27@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 153d (7 replies)

psx_crab@lemmy.zip · 12 pts · 153d (6 replies)

Hbomber too!

Nah jk can't have too much good stuff.

qarbone@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 153d

Don't you do that

TheTechnician27@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 152d (2 replies)

No, wait, he really is. The first 80 minutes of his next video, about Adobe, has been available on his Patreon since November 13, 2025.

psx_crab@lemmy.zip · 2 pts · 152d (1 reply)

Waw, this is gonna be a long one

TheTechnician27@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 152d

You got lucky. An Hbomb false alarm is a war crime in 143 countries.

Skankboot@sh.itjust.works · 1 pts · 153d

You bastard.

Zoomboingding@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 153d

He did do an interview recently

vogi@piefed.social · 13 pts · 154d (3 replies)

"Tom Scott: Our Man in England"

Really excited about this. Would not mind him doing that in other countries as well afterwards.

TheTechnician27@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 154d (1 reply)

"I am here in Kabul."

Jokes aside, I would love to see him doing a country like New Zealand/Aotearoa.

zedgeist@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 153d

Tommy does New Zealand ๐Ÿ˜

J92@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 153d

The best guess would be Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland next.
Or at least I would hope.

lambdabeta@lemmy.ca · 8 pts · 153d

I've already watched the first episode. It was good. Classic Tom Scott style. I am happy.

NewNewAugustEast@lemmy.zip · 8 pts · 153d (5 replies)

The title is confusing: this guy left you tube, but is coming back... To nebula?

I dobt know who he is, but I watched an episode on nebula today and thought it was good.

So used to be on YouTube, now on nebula? Is that it?

SirHery@lemmy.world · 18 pts · 153d

The episodes will come out on YouTube.

WolfLink@sh.itjust.works · 9 pts · 153d (2 replies)

If you havenโ€™t heard of this guy before look up his old stuff on YouTube.

hawgietonight@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 153d

Most are pretty good but two of them (for me) stand out as "must watch," the chaos of programming dates and timezones, and the one about VPNs.

NewNewAugustEast@lemmy.zip · 0 pts · 153d

I quit watching youtube

scarabic@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 153d

He left video making for a while and is coming back. Which services he posts on is a secondary matter if that.

k0e3@lemmy.ca · 7 pts · 153d (2 replies)

I had no idea he left. Did he mention why he left?

PlzGivHugs@sh.itjust.works · 27 pts · 153d (1 reply)

He was running out of ideas, and just needed a break after doing a decade of weekly, main-channel videos. His announcement video is here.

k0e3@lemmy.ca · 3 pts · 153d

Thank you. I thought maybe he had to stop due to a mental or health issue. I'm glad he's fine and back.

daychilde@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 154d

Delightful news! I'm glad he was able to get in a good break, and I'm glad he's back - at least for now :)

J92@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 153d

I'm excited to see what he found to do in the three major counties of my life.

lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 147d

Omg I somehow missed this announcement.

Yaaaay! Glad to see him back.

abbadon420@sh.itjust.works · 2 pts · 154d

Woohoo!

Is the thumbnail AI generated?

TheTechnician27@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 153d (1 reply)

No? He's just in the location where he's doing commentary now, and he or his editors added a red rectangle (the color of his old shirt he always wore) but cut it off before it intersects his torso. Then they added text with a dropshadow reading "It's been a while."

yum@lemmy.eco.br · 2 pts · 153d

Thanks man. I love that I have been downvoted for even mentioning AI here
