The white background gives the video a "clean", "professional" look to them. (Kinda like Apple does things... and I think Nintendo Direct does it like this too?)
If it's too bright for you, reduce the brightness. 
Because honestly, plain black background like in your example video, is no better for your eyes. A very dark grey is better, softer and more appealing to the eyes. Kind of like the background of dark theme on the forum, except slightly darker.
Proper "dark mode", should never just be single color solid hard black. To me it's dark shades of grey.

More than me who wants to remove the white background in Techquick for a black? I run dark mode and get dazzled and must  instead listen. I do not want to miss any episode of Tech Quick.

Maybe tomorrow? A renamed version works to upload on YouTube.

It'll be back. Just waiting on an edit to process

One question I'd like answered is: What PC did Janice think was best?
 
Sure you can argue for specs and whatnot, but its also about what the "n00b" in question would prefer. Which made her feel like she bought a quality product and which had the best support and/or ordering process for people that are not really gamers.

as you said

Its already been addressed on a different thread, but the reason is because of the sponsored facebook release from today, so they need to space the publication to YT so it can properly hit peoples notification inbox of release. Also, it should be up in about 30 or so minutes. 

I also had the problem, that Origin dosen't want to download the games on a Network Share. After lots of trying i found the reson why. Origin has a service called "Origin Client Service" which is required to download a Game. This service is executed under the SYSTEM user account, which doesn't know of your Network Share mappings. The easiest way to solve this is to disable the service. Now Origin cannot start the service and runs the Executable as Administrator of your User. To allow the Programs, which run as administrator, to see the Network Share you have to follow these instructions: https://technet.microsoft.com/de-de/library/ee844140(v=ws.10).aspx. You culd also map the Network Share in  the SYSTEM user but this is generally not a good idea, because then the SYSTEM user could be atacked throu that share. Also running the service under your user has the drawback that origin would not work in multi-user environments. My solution has the drawback that Origin prompts you with an UAC for the first download after Origin started. 
 
Here the detailed steps to realize my solution: 
1. type services.msc in to the Search field and open Services
2. Search for "Origin Client Host" in the list and duble click it
3. set the Startup type to disabled
4. Click OK and close the Services window
5. type regedit in to the search field and open the entry regedit
6. Locate and then right-click the registry subkey HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System.
7. Point to New, and then click DWORD Value.
8. Type EnableLinkedConnections, and then press ENTER.
9. Right-click EnableLinkedConnections, and then click Modify.
10. In the Value data box, type 1, and then click OK.
11. Exit Registry Editor, and then restart the computer.
12. Now Origin should be able to to download to the set installation-path even if it is a network share

Not a really suggestion for TQ but didn't know where else to post...i just hope someone sees this and considers...
im also pretty sure you guys have seen this but just checking if it has slipped by your radar =)
