Topic Wiki

If your video is not embedding, see if your link starts with "http:" - if it does, change it to "https:" and it will work.

If a video isn't embedded you should assume it may be inappropriate for some people.

How do I embed a Youtube video?
Simply post the YouTube URL.
Alternately (actually, this may no longer work):
Click the "youtube" button on the second row on the furthermost left side.
You will now have the words: [youtube][/youtube] in your editor.
Now, copy and paste the youtube video id (youtube.com/watch?v=oHg5SJYRHA0&x=y) in between the middle brackets in order for it to look like this:
    [youtube]oHg5SJYRHA0[/youtube]
and leave out this part of the link: "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v="

Or you can paste the YouTube link, highlight it, and then click on the "YouTube" button. This will encase the link in the youtube tags,
Now just click "post" and you're done!


How can I search if a video has been posted here before?
This is not foolproof, but it's a good start.
Search for the youtube ID (youtube.com/watch?v=oHg5SJYRHA0)

Pretty cool. Reminds me of the reddit logo when the antenna spins.

WTH did I just watch. Leave aside the standard anti-vax BS. These people realize the end of Green Eggs and Ham is that he tries it and likes it, right? Unreal.
You made me watch it too  >:(

Nittel nacht ?

I have no idea when this was. Though it doesn't make sense to me that it was a nittel nacht. I saw it online today in honor of his tenth yahrzeit. My FIL is a big fan of his (I was never in Yeshiva in Montreal, but seems like anyone who was there when he was around is an admirer).

Looks like he took lessons by the legendary R’ Yudel Ackerman Z”L

I'm not familiar, but if anything, given the ages, they might have both had the same teacher. R Volf was famous for things other than dancing (He was referred to by the Rebbe as דער מאנטרעאלער מקובל, though I've heard that whenever he was respectfully addressed as "Rabbi Greenglass" he would respond "איך הייס וואָלף"). http://chabadpedia.co.il/index.php/מנחם_זאב_גרינגלס

I think you left off a "w" at the end.
Do you want to play a board game, digitally or in Lakewood NJ? PM me. (Can be asynchronous, i.e. take turns whenever)

Just saying its a halachic problem to be videoed on Shabbos if you know that there is a camera and you intend to be on it (I mean to exclude security cameras - even though there are some Poskim inc. R' Elyashiv who forbade going past security cameras if one was aware that they were there).

Furthermore, if he intended for Jews to watch it as well, even though his audience will be mainly non-Jews according to the Mishna Berura 276:97 it would be forbidden B'Chdai Sheya'ase because of Ma'ase Akum and according to all Poskim the Issur of B'Chdai Sheya'ase on videos and photos will last forever as one could not take such a video during the week.
