Quick Life Update
🕑 Added 2019-07-19 16:53:11 +0000 UTCHey everyone, I don't usually post things like this, but I wanted to let you all know what's going on behind the scenes here on my end.
Before Vidcon I had a minor medical issue that is ongoing and will hopefully be cleared up soon. But I also set myself up to move immediately following Vidcon, which was on my mind the entire trip. As many of you know, I like to keep my private life private, but the place I'm moving to is nicer in every way - I won't have noisy upstairs neighbors, motorcycles driving by, or a refrigerator in the same room that clicks on at random. But the internet is a terrible DSL connection.
I didn't know this until I signed the lease and started moving things, but I'm basically stepping ten years into the past when it comes to my internet speed. There's only the one provider in the area, so I am kind of stuck with it. But I've figured out a solution, I'm going to have to get an unlimited data plan on my phone and connect through that when I want to upload or stream. But suffice it to say, this has been a significant source of stress on top of everything else.
In my Q&A, I said I would start streaming in August, and I do plan to make good on that promise. But it might be a little rocky until I figure my connection situation out.
Meanwhile, I am working on my next video, I don't foresee it being delayed or anything. But I did pick a topic that would be a little shorter than my usual videos because of everything else that's going on. I hope a ten minute video will be okay with all of you.
I don't like disappointing my patrons, but I wanted to make sure you knew what else was going on.

You are fine! I always pay as much for what I have already consumed for free as for future content, so please don't feel bad about uncontrollable circumstances.

Thanks for letting us know (better) about the situation. We'll be here with baited breath, waiting for the next video no matter how long it is. Good luck with your health, good luck with the move, and good luck with the internet.

Take care of you. A troubled Knowing Better keeps us from learning better.

No worries! Take care of yourself!

Next time you sign a lease, you'll know better.

I canceled my cable based broadband 3 months ago and only use an unlimited data phone plan now. It has been fantastic. No regrets at all. Hope yours works out as well for you. Thanks for your great work.

I enjoy all your videos so do what you can, when you can. No worries here.

If you can post from some thing portable, you might check out the bandwidth at your local public library. Bonus: It will get you out of your house from time-to-time.

I'm in the middle of moving, and that's stressful enough! I hope it's a smooth transition (despite the connective issues). Thank you for keeping us in the loop, and personally thankful for any content.

Enjoy your new place

Your health and wellbeing are the most important thing KB. Look after yourself & the other things will fall into place 👌. I doubt anyone is gonna be going anywhere due to a ten minute video (I'll watch it regardless 🤷🏼♂️).

Hey man, what we appreciate from you is honest presentation of facts. I Don't forsee anyone having an issue with a shorter video, so long as the quality of the information remains at the same level you've always provided. Brst of luck with the internet sitch, I know lag drives ME pretty nuts, so I hope things work out favorably with things going forward.

Quality over quantity, anyday. I'm sure whatever you produce will be thought provoking, as usual. Good luck with the move. Health is wealth. 👍

Hope all’s good and as long as there’s content I’m content :)
