   #YouTube u wot m8

   What is more premium about "1080p Premium" then? And is this an option that the creator has chosen (and presumably gets a kickback from)?

   I see other videos at 1080p, 1440p and 2160p that do not need a Premium account.

   I am not buying a Premium account. If this is a creator choice then do know that I will Patreon you at £1/mo sort of levels before I will ever sign up to YT Premium.

     @alarig I don't know what it is about Factorio and odd voices but the ultimate Factorio mad lad probably has to be DoshDoshington who also has a very distinctive voice.

     Factorio but everything is modded to require fuel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jFC7ez1bgnQ

     @alarig His 16 tile high ribbon world is pretty crazy also. But there is no speech for most of it, only captions.

     @alarig I thought you played #Factorio !?

     He's Dutch.

     I did at least learn a few things:
     - If you place non-military buildings over the map it dissuades biters from expanding to those chunks.
     - You can prevent biters spawning by completely encasing bases in walls
     - It's cheaper to have no repair packs in your bot network and have bots replace walls entirely, than it is to have bots die while repairing damaged walls

     Here is a video with such an option. I downloaded it and got a webm (vp9) at 3617kb/s. Can someone with a Premium account see what bitrate they get for the 1080p Premium option? Sorry I don't know how to examine that in the browser.

     @grifferz I don’t have a premium account, but I have questions about the accent. What the hell is this?
