2. open up a text editor and paste that in.

3. search for the addebug_VideoID and add https://www.youtube.com/watch?v= before that.

4. You get the Video-URL (i.e. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J8J4icxoF0M).

A #reboot is a solution to many tech problems. But if you are on #Linux, did you know you need to reboot only if your kernel has changed? Otherwise you can do a "soft reboot" and get the same thing. You need to kill the init process and make it respawn. It varies from distro to distro but on #systemd ones, you can do systemctl soft-reboot and it'll do the job for you.

Also if you have problem with your graphical shell, you can simply restart your graphical stuff. Not even a soft reboot is needed. For instance if your display manager is lightdm like me, simply do systemctl restart lightdm.

I think this applies to other #unixlike operating systems with the similar kernel and system architecture as Linux. Maybe #BSD people can share their experience?
