I’ve been watching him since I think 2020. He made some of the best tech content of YouTube and I’ve never seen another individual have more knowledge of Windows internals than him. He was accused by Youtube in the past many times for spreading viruses in the description of some of his videos.
This time it was a copyright violation of some random Japanese channel, with no relation to his channel. It is very possible this error was made by the new AI YouTube copyright detection bots.
Please help spread this. RIP Enderman 2016-2025
UPDATE: The channel is back up again.

ai has lots of problems, but lack of accountability is one of the big ones
“Therefore a computer is ideally suited to making management decisions”
More like…AI’s primary purpose is to provide an unaccountable excuse to fire people and keep wages down.
Idk man, I can nuke an LLM model I deployed pretty easy, but it’s pretty hard to hold C-suite types accountable unless you’ve got a green hat.
i doubt anyone would be held accountable at youtube/ youtube itself really even if it were not AI…
?
This is Google, they’ve been unaccountable for 2 decades.
I don’t know if that is a problem. If a human does dumb things he will be fired. If a computer/algorithm /Ai does it, it will be removed.
I think it has more to do with human costs (salary) vs the cost of brand damage (youtube).
They spent billions of dollars to develop and train the AIs that they use. They’re not going to remove it for fucking up someone’s YouTube channel.
They wouldn’t remove it even if it caused someone’s death (which it probably has considering that they have been shown to be very bad at therapy and that people go to them for therapy).
The ”C” in “AI” stands for “competence”.
The ‘A’ stands for Ain’t
AI = Ain’t Intelligent
Their joke but worse
That’s the joke…
WHAAAAT? NO WAY!
Are you trying to become Captain Obvious? Because that’s MY JOB!

I have a feeling that the YouTube apocalypse will be much harder to watch (as in “more sad/unpleasant”) than the Reddit apocalypse.
Yeah. Reddit is technologically very bland. It’s “easy” to make a Reddit clone - the community is what makes it tick. But YouTube needs crazy levels of infrastructure to provide the full experience that it does. When Reddit collapses there’s places to migrate to. But if YouTube collapses it’s just a loss.
Not to mention you can fit more Reddit on a 1TB hard drive than YouTube, which makes it much easier to exfiltrate content.
But in either case there’s massive value in the existing content that would be lost.
I’m sure some of those creators will try to take their content other places
On the other hand, maybe it will prop up PeerTube for once…
Better start mirroring content now
It already happens
Antitrust Google. Fork YouTube as part of it. All existing content must be preserved. Remove YouTube’s ability to sell licensed content (cable TV channels, music, on demand). YouTube can then be purchased or spun off as a “YOU Tube” again - content made by people for people. Brand saved, community focused. Monetization heavily regulated (governance or internal governance, but just make it a requirement.)
Or just let it burn and replace it with something else. Video’s just super-expensive to host and provide, probably by design to keep others out of the market.
Coming back to reality, it’s not going to happen.
Ai froze an important work excel sheet saying it violated tos. It was an EXCEL sheet SHARED at work BY work… Eventually it came back on… Ai sucks
important work Excel sheet
Hopefully your boss understands why they shouldn’t rely on MS software as a result
It was a Google sheet. We have Google suite through Okta.
youre funny
Encourage them to switch to Onlyoffice
That is the only real solution. Get people on board one by one.
Meet them where they are at
This is too insane to leave out details! What happened???
Edit: I know why there’s no reply, it’s because this did not happen
Excel has AI now?
Haven’t seen it on whatever version I use.
Google sheets
Yeah, it’s useless as it doesn’t know how tonuse excel functions, so it just Google’s the answer and gives you whatever came back. It might be the right function, but if it is, it’s a tossup
UPDATE: Channel “4096” (about 10 million subs i think, it had that legendary 30 million view video with the windows 7 windows dancing) has also been deleted:
UPDATE 2: The channel was restored.
Sounds like it’s a site wide push about Microsoft products:
YouTube’s AI moderator pulls Windows 11 workaround videos • https://www.theregister.com/2025/10/31/ai_moderation_youtube_windows11_workaround/
Imagine if that accidentally started banning all things Microsoft related due to some misalignment
While I do not wish for it to happen due to many real people possibly losing their real source of income, it would be quite fun hell to observe
i kinda get them pulling that, but it’s still shitty none the less.
You get what?
pulling bypass videos if microsoft asked them too. if we still had keygens, you think microsoft would be ok with keygen guides on youtube? press x to doubt.
Except this isn’t stealing windows. It’s installing it on unsupported hardware and/or without needing user accounts to be tied to microsoft accounts. It has nothing to do with bypassing windows activation systems.
your bypassing hardware requirements, that could be against the EULA, and it actually is if you read it. they dont want people sharing videos violating their EULA
Your inability to use your/you’re correctly really puts the cherry on top of your show of idiocy here, it’s fucking hilarious.
Take a hint from the votes, and learn basic grammar and spelling. Thought I wouldn’t be surprised if you’re actually unable to learn better, since every single comment you’ve made makes it very clear you’re dumb as fuck.
but your…bypassing their software requirements…without their permission…thus breaking the license agreement you agree to installing windows. Listen dude i get it, its fucking stupid, but at the same time, i don’t see what microsoft is doing is wrong (in regards to pulling bypass videos, not this guys account)
Are you real? Like this reeks of Subway from Community.
What grounds do they have to pull those videos?
You are aware there is no law called “If you show someone how to modify the product I sold to them (licensed to them too, as that makes no difference) I get to pull down their content” right?
You are out of your god damned mind to be logically equating modifying your OS with piracy.
i didn’t say it was piracy, i said it was against EULA.
You literally didn’t tho
Most “bypasses” are using admin tools and commands to keep accounts in company or local for enterprises. Its hardly hacking. Microsoft just wants to forcibly inflate their registration numbers. Same thing with one drive, the start menu pulling bing content… Etc.
Its gonna get worse faster as people bail on the eroding enshitified os… Making them try to forcibly lock in other people on the platform harder.
Related: DRM and piracy. The more invasive it got - the worse it was for paying customers… While the DRM would be stripped out by the pirates. You’d think they’d know better.
i think the real answer is just to not install windows 11 and install linux instead.
Right there with you. A fair number of companies are as well. Unfortunately not all software is “uniformly supported” so its really a mixed bag when it comes to who can flip the switch and who can’t.
There’s a lot of costs to consider as well.
All said - it says a lot when companies are willingly taking that plunge just to shed micro$ofts shit.
That’s so disappointing! One of my favorite channels!
Love that channel :(
At this point I feel like we should have a website and community that coordinates with all youtubers to collectively move together in waves. To have them exist on multiple platforms until everyone is firmly on a few other ones
To Vanillo, PeerTube, Nebula, & Glomble (When it is fixed and overhauled)
There’s no fucking way Glomble is the real name of a video platform.
You would be surprised haha. It doesnt work currently due to huge traffic but when it did it was actually pretty good. Definitely farther behind compared to the other 2 but it was not bad
Nebula as well
That too! I’ll add it in
Looks like the great purge of knowledge has begun… A long, long time ago, and now we’re knee deep in it.
There is so much link rot, I wouldn’t be surprised if most of the content on the internet has now vanished or become inaccessible
on youtube? mostly astroturfed by right wing content and comments about woke-ism, pseudoscience, plus influencers that are POS behind the scenes. while burying actual smaller content creators to the point of oblivion, i asian ytoubers i used to followed are rightfully buried for turning magaty during the pandemcic, these are the people they shouldved buried.
Just deleting useful information.
maybe we’ll get lucky and YouTube’s shitty moderation AI will delete the entire website
Youtube is trying to purge it’s own community
Much like Reddit.
By the way, there was a video by Enderman (or FlyTech, or similar) showing a Windows locale that looked ﻉกƚٱɼєℓץ ʟ𝔦к𝚎 Շዘﾉร, intended for English-speaking devs to test support for Unicode and unusually short/long strings in the UI. I haven’t been able to find it for years (the title, which was along the lines of “The Strangest Windows 8 Build” didn’t help). Has anyone seen it recently?
The actual term for it is “Pseudolocalization”, might throw up a hit
Wow, that’s a very informative article! I only knew about Faux Cyrillic, Greek, Vietnamese etc., which are parts of the text transformation, but not about the technique as a whole. I guess I’ll edit the Faux Cyrillic and “faux German” (Metal umlaut) articles to help anyone search for info about a cursed string they saw in a niche setting deep in Windows.
See, I’ve been wanting to make a post about Windows 11 suddenly being like
Are you sure you want to perform this action? Performing operation 'Μθđїƒý' on Target 'ŞΜЪ Ćľį℮ŋт Čõпƒìğцгăţїõŋ'. [Y] Yes [A] Yes to All [N] No [L] No to All [S] Suspend [?] Help (default is "Y"): _and I needed the video to provide more context. I guess the Wikipedia article could be enough but it obviously doesn’t show screenshots.
Overall, localization on Windows has gotten worse, there are context blunders that wouldn’t have happened in XP days.
They’ve released at least one screenshot, but since they mostly use it for internal testing, and they very rarely ever release those builds, there’s not much to go on.
So builds they didn’t intend to release provide the best insight.
Now I’ve only ever used the English releases, but I know before Vista that this simply wasn’t a thing. Each language release was a separate build, handled separately by different teams. So there was never a mixing of languages or loading strings at runtime, they were hardcoded into the binaries that shipped on disk.
This is what you’re looking for.
Sounds like something FlyTech would show.
But I don’t remember that happening.
Popular youtuber “looses” channel after AI error
looks inside
It is very possible this error was made by the new AI YouTube copyright detection bots.
This is clickbait.
I would be more upset about this sort of shit happening to youtube about 10 or 15 years ago. If i need some information and theres a youtube video on it, the info is usually around 8 minutes in to a 30 minute video where they give shit loads of guff that nobody needs to know while telling you to smash that like button, hit the subscribe it really helps out the channel so if you like the content can you please subscribe dont forget to subscribe if you wanna see the channel grow then press subscribe dont miss a video by pressing subscribe I need you to subscribe here’s the information I promised but dont forget to subscribe hit that subscribe button if this helped you then leave a comment and dont forget to subscribe and like this video if you want to see more like this.
Just install sponsor block. It’s the only way to make YouTube bearable.
What kind of absolute dog water content do y’all watch where pressing the 5 second skip button isn’t good enough?
What premium version of YT are you using that adds a skip button on in video sponsorships?
The right and left buttons on the arrow keys? Is that the issue and why you need sponserblock?
You’re so right, I should just close my ears and eyes for all ads while I’m at it, then I don’t even have to pay to remove them. So smart!
I remember when you used to be able to just enter the Wadsworth constant in the URL and it would jump you right to the good stuff
I’m high and I don’t know what this means but it sounds absolutely fantastic.
Wadsworth Constant
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wadsworth_constant_deviation_system
I think you meant this: https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/the-wadsworth-constant
nah I was being silly.
check out the sponser block extension. i stopped using the app on mobile just to use the extension on firefox
deleted by creator
Yeah, I was wondering if there was enough content on Nebula to make it worthwhile to pay. A lot of my favorite channels do this and it’s getting old. I understand this is how they make money, but that doesn’t mean I’m obligated to watch it. I can just move along.
Loses*
Its amazing how much of a problem lose vs loose has become lately. But yes, OP should change it to “loses.”
For all intensive purposes, we have become too lose with txt quality, and it effects my mental health.
for all intents and purposes*
lol
Thanks for the inlitenment!
The thing I don’t get is how often are people using “looses” that it becomes possible to mix it up? I don’t think I have ever used that word in 40 years.
My guess is that because English is such a mish-mash of other languages and has a lot of contradictory rules, the double-o in loose is how most people would guess the way to spell the “o” sound in lose. To people who haven’t been told otherwise, lose probably sounds similar to hose or dose in their heads and “oo” looks more correct despite being wrong.
In the wise words of Sugi: “Not why; memorize”
Sorry, fixed
human errors, automated errors, ai errors, yt going for all achievements speed run
