Working My Way Up to Transformers One

I have started making my way through Transformers media because I like to start from the beginning of new franchises. Transformers has the most content out of any I've watched through so far.

I will mostly be sticking to the shows and I will be going through order of release(ish.)

Currently I am in Transformers Headmasters

( I have also been doing YouTube boycott and privacy information posts alongside the Transformers content. )

There will be spoilers, so I think the target audience is people who have already watched the shows and they can point at me and go :"hahaha you know nothing" or "You have no idea what's coming."

This is my first time documenting a watchthrough.

I do post other things from time to time, so if you want to sort out the transformers content, just search my blog by #I have a lot of transformers media to get through before I watch transformers one

TRANSFORMERS CONTENT LIST UNDER THE CUT

(List is a work in progress)

No Clue if this is the official one.

I haven't been on YouTube for more than a few misclicks so I have no idea.

This is what it might look like on Google if you are flagged as a minor.

I think it's about time I tell you guys about my favorite note taking app.

This website goes more in depth

Obsidian is Awesome! It's got community plug-ins and themes it's really fun, but more importantly all the files are stored on your computer.

It's also available on mobile!

Everything is a simple text file, but Obsidian uses a markdown language to add formatting so symbols get put on a text file and the obsidian makes it look pretty.

You can also link your note files together to make a mind map.

There is no login unless you want to. And it's totally free!

(The only features that you miss out on for not signing up is the group collaboration and file syncing, but it makes sense why that would be needed. )

A really fun thing is you can host your notes as an obsidian website for $8 a month. I have not done that myself, but I may in the future.

The Obsidian Help website uses this hosting and it has all the documentation you need to learn how to use the program.

This link will also help you get everything set up.

This episode is very Daniel centered and I love it. Everyone keeps picking him up.

Also they started giving Rodimus dark eyeliner after he ate the matrix again. I don't like it. It makes Roddy look angry or something. What happened to the relaxed and goofy li'l guy?

I love how Cerebros Comforts Daniel here. It gives me fun uncle vibes. Honestly I feel like all the Autobots could either be placed into the category of Uncle or Cousin. Wheelie is Daniel's favorite cousin. This is also the most expressive I have seen a bot in this show.

Something really weird is how I can't figure out how old Daniel is supposed to be. The Wiki says in 2005 he was 12, but Headmasters takes place in 2011. This means that Daniel should be 18, but he sure doesn't look or act 18. Maybe he was cryogenically frozen sometime between 2006 and 2011, or maybe time travel. You can never know in the G1 continuity.

With all the YouTube sponsors I saw from them I had a few suspicious thoughts.

You have to give up all your information to a company so they can find it, that doesn't feel totally safe, but it makes sense.

How do they know what data brokers have your information? Are they in kahoots? Is there some kind of deal between them and the brokers?

What's stopping them from just reselling your info when you stop paying for your subscription and bringing you right back to square one?

Click yes when they ask if you want to receive their newsletter. They already have your email on file and now you get reminders every once in a while that you have signed up for an account.

Proton is a company based in Switzerland, and the Swiss have privacy built into their constitution. (Article 13) They also have freedom of expression and information (Article 16)

Their definition of personal information includes IP address along with any other identification numbers.

This is why Proton VPN/ other Proton products are considered more private than other platforms. I recently started switching my account over to a Proton email for free.

They are so concerned about your privacy that they made a list of commonly used websites and banks that links directly to their email transfer pages.

Here are the alternatives I use for Firefox/Google

On Desktop I use Librewolf, it has a lot of privacy options and runs a lot of the same extensions Firefox does.

On mobile I use Tor Onion Browser. It's a bit finicky, but has the same layout as Firefox. It routes data through servers run by volunteers if I understand how it works correctly.

Universal Android Debloater

I used it to delete all the apps I didn't want 'bout 2 years ago when my service provider started downloading apps I didn't want without my permission. (I really didn't want tiktok or any of the other random game apps it started adding once I connected my phone.)

I deleted a lot off my phone and the storage has lasted a lot longer than it normally does. I think I may have accidentally deleted a few important things by accident though. My phone won't turn the screen off when I put it up to my ear on a phone call so I accidentally mute or press other buttons a lot. It's a small inconvenience to pay for the control of my own device.

I don't quite remember exactly how ot works, and the tutorial I used was on YouTube, but I'm sure there is documentation somewhere.

Headmasters is getting creative with their combat choices.
