I adore mechanical shit like this. For the longest time I've wanted to find attitude indicator and somehow shove it in to my cars dash, just because they're so neat.

Breadtube if it didn't suck.
Post videos you genuinely enjoy and want to share, duh. Celebrate the diversity of interests shared by chapochatters by posting a deep dive into Venetian kelp farming, I dunno. Also media criticism, bite-sized versions of left-wing theory, all the stuff you expected. But I am curious about that kelp farming thing now that you mentioned it.
Low effort / spam videos might be removed, especially weeb content.
There is a cytube that you can paste videos into and watch with whoever happens to be around. It's open submission unless there's something important to commandeer it with at the time.
A weekly watch party happens every Saturday (Sunday down under), with video nominations Saturday-Monday, voting Monday-Thursday. See the pin for whatever stage it's currently in.

A comment
For those wanting some info:
This is the Korry 433, a luminated 4-pole double-throw switch used by Boeing.
Pins 1-12 are the switching circuits, the four switches connected to pins 1-3, 4-6, 7-9 and 10-12. Pins 3, 6, 9 and 12 are the inputs, pins 1, 4, 7 and 10 are the normally-closed outputs, and pins 2, 5, 8 and 11 are the normally-open outputs. Pins 13-18 are two lamp circuits to separately illuminate the upper and lower sections. The two lamp circuits, A and B, are connected to pins 13-15 and 16-18 respectively. Depending on the specific model, pin 14 may not be connected, but if it is, pins 14-15 are tied for redundancy and lamp A will be polarised. Lamp B is always polarised, with pins 16-17 again being tied for redundancy.
I found a YouTube link in your post. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
