Make sure they mention 'Gaffer' 'Assistant' or 'Executive' repeatedly.

GORDAMMIT GOOGLE QUIT BREAKING YER YOOTUBE! GAAAAAR.

Honestly. This stupid update for Youtube users is just so bad it's unreal. There's so many poor design decisions that even Lovecraft couldn't understand their crazy architectural logic.

Disregarding the cosmetics, which users are probably also biased against because we fear change, the update is also bad because it breaks Youtube's functionality.

Videos that I know worked on Firefox in the past no longer work properly for me. The video player itself won't even load, it's just a blank black box. Tests on Google Chrome show it works just spiffingly, but that's not surprising. I haven't tested it on Chrome while logged into Youtube, but still.

That's another kick in the teeth; youtube users have to tolerate this abomination of a Facebook wannabe, while the anonymous majority of people get the same old "still decently functional and makes sense" youtube.
How old is your firefox version? I know Flash broke for me in FF4 a bit ago, I updated to the (now not recent) FF13 and it works fine.

I was happy earlier today.  My dad finally installed the shower doors in my bathroom, and took a shower in my own bathroom that I don't have to share with anyone else.  It was wonderful.  I took as long as I wanted and the bathroom didn't smell like mold.  Yay.

Then later, my mom comes trudging downstairs with my older brother and they start packing the new cabinet with supplies from my mom's bathroom, stuff like hair curlers, hair dye, her towels, her shampoo and her deodorant.  NO REASON WHY.  I even asked why, and she was like "well this stuff should have been down here forever ago."  WTF?  It's like my mom has a PATHOLOGICAL NEED to fill up every empty space in our house with as much crap as possible.  She didn't even ask, she didn't even tell me she was doing it.  Recently, we got a new, larger cabinet for our pantry 'cause the last one was overstocked hard, and then mom goes off and buys twice as much food, and now we can't even fit all that crap in the pantry.  WTF.

According to the "About Firefox" tab in the "Help" section of the toolbar thingamajig it's 16.0.2 and is "up to date"

It might have something to do with the NoScript plugin I got installed on Firefox conflicting with some doohickey in the thingamuhjig in Youtube's updated scripts, but I just find that hard to believe. Adblock can't be the problem, since I have it in both Firefox and Chrome.

That's a minor annoyance really, although not working at all is a rather large flaw in designing. What bugs me more is just...the cosmic horror that is the new page layout. Some choices just seem entirely inefficient and outright odd in some cases. (like going from the pages-of-comments system to "load more crap all on the same page". really Google?)

What are you talking about? Youtube is still the same as it has been for a long while, there haven't been any updates like that.

That I can see in my Youtube stuff, at least.

"That guy who got me my coffee that one time"
"Jorge on the corner, who makes awesome hotdogs"
"Whoever made these fantastic seats"
"Are you really still watching the credits?"
"I mean, it's been like 20 minutes now"
"I guess I could put a few more joke ones in or something..."


If I ever do credits, these will be in it.

I would just make them loop, or have credits for randomly generated names.
Do the randomly generated thing, then 15 minutes in have a small thing reading "If you still havn't figured that these are randomly generated, shame on you. Random generator provided by [Random string of characters here].

youtube... it has the new interface on my Ipod and in opera (even if I trick it into thinking it is another browser) but NOT in any other web browser I have on this computer.  The main thing I dislike is the way it affects the subscriptions by including likes of the people on the list as well as their uploads.

Isn't there a box on the page you can check saying "Show uploads only"?

I got a beta version of what's probably the next update for a day or so once. There were zero filtering options. Welcome to YouBook. Or perhaps FaceTube, since it also tried to persuade me to change my username to my real name in order to "increase my notoriety".

Nah, that's not fair. If they're persistent enough to sit through that quantity of accreditation, they at least deserve a personal touch to their joke credits.

Maybe an achievement?

Coming soon to home theatres near you: Movies you need to be always online to watch! It isn't for DRM, we promise! It's so we can use IP-tracking to put in Bonus Content(TM). By allowing us access to where you are, we can insert your name into our movies!

Oh, how about an input your name thing that adds your name to a list at the very end of "All the people who sat through the credits"

Score one more for copyright infringement, go goddamn stupid marketing go!
I almost even care! I'm suddenly more pleased by never watching movies. This is offset fully by the knowledge that, if at some point in the future I decide to change my mind, massively fucking stupid shit like that is going to force me to have to wrestle with illegality in order to avoid privacy violation. Bloody hell corps, figure this stuff out. It's not rocket science. Back the hell off and stay out my home.
