When not even my closest coworkers or boss could tell if I was working or screwing off because working on or doing research for my personal projects is indistinguishable from my work ones 😅

Small correction it's technically an LSposed/Exposed module, but everything I said previously still applies.
If you have a rooted phone and Magisk there is a module that essentially turns the stock YouTube app into the Premium version without adds and background play enabled.
I'm right there with you, but I can't ever seem to thread the needle. Like in your Matrix example I have had people get offended by a question like that.
More generally speaking, I think it's so difficult because a lot of people aren't actually all that interested in learning or communicating in a way where a mutual understanding of each other's base reality/knowledge are understood. They prefer to operate on their innate or learned social cues and prefer making assumptions or reading between the lines of what the other person is saying. Or in modern parlance, they just go by the vibes.
I have watched two people completely talk past each other and misunderstand the other person and yet they both seemed to come out of the conversation pleased with the interaction so many times. It's baffling to me.
Their whole thing is to do this stuff with Linus. It's a constant friendly back and forth. Linus will make fun of and trash Dbrand in videos they sponsor, while Dbrand makes fun of him. In a vacuum, this looks really weird/bad, but if you are familiar with the back and forth it very much comes across as two really good friends taking the piss and just having fun.
There is basically no piece of content Dbrand isn't willing to sponsor with LMG because they don't give a fuck.
Don't use the time he instigated a coupe attempt as a reason?
Can you tell me why putting my hand on an electric burner that is red hot is a bad idea? Don't use anyone's past experiences being burned by hot objects.
Sure you could technically go into a complex explanation using physics as to why it's a bad idea, but why?
