"Interested in Stuff" and be inspired.
I thought I kept up with the news but sadly I missed this come out in the US last December now it applies to me next month June 1st.
They can choose to make money from my work before I qualify to get a cut from their advertising. If I decided I didn't want to monetise work and save the viewer the adverts, I cannot control that if the time came. That's quite a shift in a relationship. What was mutually beneficial arrangement has now moved to potential arbitrary decisions by one side of the agreement. I only get to vote with my feet.
I now potentially have to view YT as solely providing promotion for my work. Each video takes approximately one day to edit. That's quite a price to be making money for someone else and I might only get some exposure not any revenue down the line if I were actually a success. That's a deal I may decide to accept but it's a ground shift.
Anyway I'm grateful for what I have achieved so far. It has been rewarding and educational for me.
The Adventure Overland Show at Stratford-upon-Avon late summer edition 2023.
My final day in the Elan Valley Area. I think I should check out the Strata Florida Road to see if I could attempt it sometime. Could have been a lot worse day I suppose....
I find a screw in my tyre, get a bit surprised and jump with both feet into a patch of mud.
I moved parking spot last night and now I'm exploring the Western part of the area. My cross country meander is interrupted with a gyrocopter.
More tracks and signposts to checkout…

Just about to leave to go on a trip and I spotted the indicator had fallen apart finally. Just a quick fix - well the video is quick, the removal was slow and tedious from years of rust on all the cover bolts.
Little trick to splice back into the trailer socket wiring.
Out on Rumble now!

This was the first time off-road for me in this truck after 3 years slowly improving and repairing things.
