youtube-dl -f43 8CHxboMGv1E # is ~120MiB of a single static 640x360
image!

How to flood the tubes with endlessly repetitive bits, Jootoob style!

These "podcasts masquerading as vlog-casts" are a blight on the
Internet for sure, and given that most of these are re-encoded by
Google, why the hell is there not a short-circuit for such static
images?

One single FHD JPEG at say 4MiB, plus a time constant, say "the
entire video", and the damn thing is reduced in size by TWO
FIRETRUCKING ORDERS OF MAGNITUDE.

MOFOS!

Also, bloody idiots - why the hell is Google burning so much
bandwidth, electricity, etc? Just madness...
