I’m pretty open to all varieties as long as the narrators voice isn’t terrible.
The Internet’s Own Boy: The Story of Aaron Swartz https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Q6Fzbgs_Lg
Aaron created RSS, and was an early developer of Reddit. A visionary of accessible information and information technology.
Since his death, the direction the internet has gone has been in ways that he would very much be taking issue with.
PBS NOVA is great. That playlist has 20 documentaries on it about a range of topics, most just under an hour long, one that is just under two hours long.
Good bot
This one is kinda like a documentary. The Marcus House channel spends most of its time documenting the latest developments in the design, construction, and testing of the SpaceX Starship.
It’s a really interesting show. To make it into a “single documentary” one could watch every episode. But that documentary would be super fucking long.
House talks about various little design problems and solutions. There’s sort of a spy briefing feel to it, in a subtle way, because SpaceX doesn’t share all the informaron about what’s going on, so he speculates about what certain observed things means. They’ve got drones and pod-mounted cameras watching the place in Texas where they’re building out the facility. The facility is really interesting too. They’re basically building a factory to mass produce the biggest rocket ever.
If you think Musk is a tech bro asshole narcissist baby I literally don’t care. Just go watch something else. Incidentally zero of the show is about Musk but you can’t mention anything even related to Elon Musk without a chorus of hate so can we please just skip it this time? It’s a cool show about engineering and construction.
You could have left out that last paragraph and nobody would have bat an eye.
