Not directly HI related, but Brady's trip to Vietnam with his father was discussed on HI in episode 47 in 2015. Brady has just published the 5th video after a 7-year gap.

The !canvas@toast.ooo event begins in 2 days! Any Tims interested in placing some pixels in the 2024 Fediverse Canvas?

A bit of history if you are curious...

r/place 2017

This was the original r/place event, and the only one that Grey and Brady discussed on the podcast.

Grey and Brady faces, Numberphile "pi" logo, Flaggy Flag, HI logo, Nail and Gear, CGP Grey flask icon, "r/hellointernet", White Cross, and "Tims!"

r/place 2022

  • Left panel: Audrey, allied territory, and bees.
  • Middle panel: Grey and Brady faces, HI logo, Nail and Gear, and "CXXXVII" (137 in roman numerals)
  • Right panel: CGP Grey the lady penguin, allied territory, Numberphile "pi" logo, CGP Grey logo, allied watermelon, plane crash corner, and a tiny 4x4 Professor Poliakoff.

r/place 2023

Last year, we were unable to secure a single large territory, but managed to claim and hold multiple small territories.

Region 1

CGP Grey bot, Nail and Gear, split Grey and Brady face, HI logo, 137, and Flaggy Flag. Unfortunately, this region was steamrollered by a streamer and did not survive to the end of the event.

Region 2

CGP Grey bot, plane crash corner, Flaggy Flag, HI logo, and Audrey.

Region 3

Another HI logo, 137, and bees.

Region 4

Near the very end of the event, we managed to secure a whopping 24x24 region on the "taskbar" at the bottom of the canvas. We had to fight off a barbie to get it (true story), but the Tims held strong!

Fediverse Canvas 2023

And finally, our humble patch on !canvas@toast.ooo last year.

Fediverse Canvas 2024

The !canvas@toast.ooo event begins in 2 days! Would this community be up for placing some pixels?

There are already a few Tims organizing in the "Tim Army" Discord but I thought it would be nice to have some people from here as well.

What do the Tims say?

Could there be a more "Brady" news story?

Yet another case in which I wish the podcast were still active...

Here is the distribution of scores from trivia quiz 3. We had a more even distribution of scores this time, though slightly bimodal. Shoutout to the super-Tim who got a perfect score!

I was pleased that we managed to trick most of you on "Which Numberphile video was referenced in the context of averaging lightbulbs over a long period?" :)

Episode 4 quiz should be up shortly.

Here is the distribution of scores from trivia quiz 2. It looks like many of you found this one more difficult! I think we also misjudged the relative difficulties of the questions.

I was surprised that more people selected the correct hypothetical username than whether Grey would prefer zero or infinite copyright, if forced to choose :)

Let's see how you do on the third quiz! Good luck!

Unmade surpasses Hello Internet in episode number. Both shows have had their share of numberless episodes, so it's not an exact comparison, but I thought it was interesting nonetheless. I wonder when Unmade will surpass Cortex. For reference, Cortex matched Hello Internet just over a year ago.

The 10th anniversary of Hello Internet is coming up. Anyone planning on doing a relisten?

Very similar to the ones at Grey's *favourite* airport (Washington Dulles), but slightly larger and more modern.

Hey Tims! Thoughts on these, individually and as a set?

I just finished my third listen-through! I'm pleased by how well the show holds up. Some of the politics and tech segments obviously feel dated, but many of the segments are pretty timeless.

On this most recent pass, I also listened to Goodbye Internet for the first time. It was nice to have that little bit of new (to me) content. Now, all I have to do is track down the wax cylinder episode and I'll be fully "caught up"!

How much of the show have you listened to?

An old classic: Grey and Brady's conversations animated by Dovsky.
