What’s the scariest thing you’ve ever seen on YouTube?

To close out spooky season, I shared some of my favorite creepy clips from YouTube. I tried to avoid series that spanned multiple videos or had the backing of bigger corporate sponsors, like Adult Swim’s infomercials. But let’s toss all qualifiers out the window: What YouTube clip or clips have unsettled you the most?

Adam Mosseri tries Instagram’s new long-form Features.

Mosseri opens the video by saying he’s “suspicious anyone actually is interested in” his roughly 6-minute day-in-the-life video. I can’t say anything that follows would lead me to disagree with him. But at least we know he won’t be making any extra money from it. [Media: https://www.instagram.com/p/DfLMRH-AJo8/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&vrfl=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ%3D%3D]

Proton now won’t “re-interview” staff, actually.

This week, 404 Media reported that Proton would be “re-interviewing” staff to ask about how they use AI at work and published an investigation into the company’s push into AI, driven in part by CEO Andy Yen. But today, 404 Media reports that Yen is canceling the interviews. There will be a reorganization, but Yen said that “there will be no loss of jobs from AI.” [Link: Proton’s CEO Cancels AI ‘Re-Interviews’ | https://www.404media.co/protons-ceo-cancels-ai-re-interviews/ | 404 Media]

“That’s what’s coming in November.”

A new GTA VI clip in the latest episode of South Park shows Jason grabbing a bag of dog poop off one of Leonida’s beaches and whacking an NPC in the face with it. You can try it yourself when GTA VI comes out on November 19th. [Media: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mcvmRMau284]

Discord is turning on websites for all Discoverable Servers.

Discord acknowledges that long-form conversations that can be popular on message boards, like help posts and theory crafting, have moved to Discord where they’re “inaccessible to the wider internet.” The option to make the websites already existed, but turning them on for all Discoverable Servers, a change set for November 16th, could make some information buried inside Discord easier to find. Admins can opt channels out from showing up.

Steam’s Personal Calendar feature is exiting beta.

About a year after Valve introduced the feature, which recommends new and upcoming games you might be interested in and even shows some on an actual calendar, it’s now considered a “full feature” of the Steam Store, Valve says. My personal calendar page has me pretty dead to rights; among other games, it recommends Final Fantasy Resonance, Star Wars: Galactic Racer, both of which I reviewed and really liked, and some indie games I already had my eye on.
