It's almost midnight and I want to go play Control after this lol

gaunt zinc
#

i'll make a laptop it will just be terrible, i dont even have my degree yet

sleek kayak
#

Speaking of laptop, i helped my dad order a new laptop. We got the HP Envy on sale.

storm jetty
#

as a user of various apple products i just tune out linus et al when apple comes up even if I agree with their points

gaunt zinc
#

my only apple product is an 8 year old laptop i was required to buy from my school

round ermine
#

So what is Linus' new investment?

storm jetty
#

regardless of how many employees identified this issue it only matters if someone at whatever level of the org tree decides that diverting money to the problem is worth it

sleek kayak
#

I remember when you were forced to use Safari to watch Apple events.

#

The sink only working for some skin colors is just like the 'separate but equal ' back again
like, same sink it just wont work for 'you people'
/s this is just a comment on it and should be taken as a job please

#

imagine if you wanted to drive though Wyoming and got pulled over for being in an EV bc some cop decided to actually enforce it

#

btw my new years resolution is a shockingly sharp 144i

#

btw where oil goes after it is used and where it comes from isn't really any better than lithium....
The lithium vs oil pretty much the same as nuclear vs coal...

#

b-but... I wanna 10 gig...

round ermine
#

Well 10 Gig would be good for seeding.

gaunt zinc
#

"but i run the servers and datacenter for my app and website from my house!"

stiff raven
#

It'd also be good for downloading steam games every once in a while

round ermine
#

If you only got a few big torrents coming out of an NVMe. then that would be an applicable need case.

#

But that's about it now.

gaunt zinc
#

other than the cost of the domain, i have an email attached to it for 100% free. Took a lot of hoops though.

stiff raven
#

I'm 1 person and I have 2 gig KEKW

round ermine
#

Having 10 gig currently would be mostly braging about your giant epeen speed number.

#

10 Gig is however good for your local network.

dull shard
#

I love my 10gig home internet I will never go back to 1 gig

round ermine
#

If you got a big NAS.

#

But 10 Gig internet?

gaunt zinc
#

My university has something like an entire x.x.x.x /16 of the IP space (65k IPs)

round ermine
#

That's overkill for current use cases.

dull shard
#

why do you think a NAS would matter? 10gig speeds mean I don't have to store anything locally when I can pull it faster over the internet than a local NAS

round ermine
#

Can you pull it faster from the internet? At this point we are going to include the time it takes to find the file.

#

If you have it local, it would still be faster to move it than to look for it online

dull shard
#

what makes you think I don't have it book marked as a common use item?

round ermine
#

Then why not already have it local?

dull shard
#

like I download ISO in seconds

#

so I don't have to tie up my local storage

#

down load use delete

#

repeat

round ermine
#

What if the host goes down?

dull shard
#

bro you pulling straws now data centers are all about redundancy

round ermine
#

I have seen plenty of sites go down still.

#

DDoS is very much a thing

dull shard
#

site is not storage

round ermine
#

I have seen sites go down due to too much traffic

dull shard
#

not when your running on a network that can handle 4 tibits of DDos attaks

round ermine
#

Hell it happened today with a site I use for FFXIV

dull shard
#

edge case and sure its going to happen I also have power outages

round ermine
#

They just released new housing in game, and all the new homeowners crashed a site that catalogues the furnishing items.

#

And of course the infamous hug of death when something hits the front page of Reddit

dull shard
#

your still talking about content and I am talking about storage

gaunt zinc
#

Linus, heres a tip: If you want to do it without the legal trouble, then just make the data able to be queried from and API and some 3rd part can make an open source extension that does it...

stiff raven
#

Linus ain't looking at this

gaunt zinc
#

pure bloom
#

linus rarely uses discord

gaunt zinc
#

right

dull shard
#

yep his people have people that kind of know about discord 😄

gaunt zinc
#

but he isnt gonna see my message anyway

pure bloom
#

hes busy hustling, no time for discord lol

gaunt zinc
#

so i would rather say it somewhere finable than a chat that goes away forever

#

Fire Colton, Luke shouldn't blame the birds.

I didn't really like the wheel. But loved the content it generated. Maybe because this being the first time may be part of the reason why

sleek kayak
#

The wheel is a good idea. They just need a timer for the topics.

#

That a was a smooth rap transition

#

This show is long. Might have to head out soon

zealous spire
#

still going??

ITS BEEN 3.5 WHOLE HOURS!!!

storm jetty
gaunt zinc
sleek kayak
#

Almost four hours

storm jetty
#

when in doubt, just scrape data instead of paying for an api

grizzled charm
#

Damn that was a long show

north furnace
#

Was that the longest WAN ever?

#

Just looked through the backlog and didn’t see a single WAN that was longer

spice oak
#

might be, but it wasn't one that ended the latest

woeful ridge
thick lynx
#

During the wan show Linus mentioned having a system that could search through previous WAN shows to answer merch messages using chatgpt. They went on talk about the cost and it being an unofficial api. I built a small proof of concept for that using the text-embedding-ada-002 model. It's been publicly available for around a month now and is priced at $0.0004 / 1K tokens. I generated embeddings from just two past WAN shows and it averaged at 350 tokens per show. Those embedding costs are one time as you then store those text embeddings. Search is performed by generating an embedding of your query and comparing it to your database via cosine similarity. I'll try to put up a public demo by the end of this weekend as it's a tad bit slow to generate the embeddings.

spice oak

interesting

To extend the idea of react to bad hacking scenes in movies, recreating systems or desk setups from famous hacking scenes would be interesting.

For the Wheel of Pain i would love to see a chess clock type system, so they have to balance between defending their side effectively and having enough time to counter the arguments from the other person

Yeah, pre-show was about 15mins and that only gets a VoD on Floatplane.

#

I like DarkViperAU but he can certainly get all wound up about stuff lol, lets see what he says here

knotty flint
fossil dune
#

I'm still watching yesterday's WAN show so hopefully this didn't come up (actually it's old news so it probably didn't) but I came across a... somewhat disturbing observation today.

Someone informed me that Stable Diffusion open sourced their ML model.
Ah, they have an official article stating that it's open source: https://stability.ai/blog/stable-diffusion-v2-release
Oh look here is the repository: https://github.com/Stability-AI/stablediffusion

And would you look at that, it's MIT licensed. Wait a minute... there's a second license in here.
https://github.com/Stability-AI/stablediffusion/blob/main/LICENSE-MODEL

That license is exclusive to the ML model (stated at the end of the readme), and that's not a license recognized by the OSI. As a matter of fact, some of the clauses in here feel like they're in disagreement with the OSI.
To top it off, the training scripts and datasets have not been provided. This is basically the ML equivalent to a pre-compiled binary.

Maybe I misunderstand but... it feels very misleading to say that the ML model is "open source".
Is this in bad faith or am I just confused?

storm jetty
#

you are just confused

fossil dune
#

What am I missing?

#

Like, this looks part open source to me, but the ML model itself is not.
This is like an application being called open source when only the front end is open source.

#

I guess the ML model isn't source code, but rather an asset.
I'm just not use to an asset being such an irreplaceable part of a program's behavior.

#

Like this isn't just an icon for the launch button. This is the ML model.

storm jetty
#

the model is still "open source", but open source as such does not apply to an ML model - without reusing or even reading the source in that repository whatsoever, you could still recreate the model in a few different ways. Another difference is that open source licenses are intended to describe permissions/liabilities for use of the code, and don't have the language to describe the same for use of an ML model. Given the propensity for abuse of this technology, new licenses are a legal necessity if only to protect the authors.

also it seems like you may be conflating the model with trained checkpoints / model weights, which are not present in this repository as they are provided in a binary format

#

as for training scripts and datasets - they are available, they're not relevant to the code for the model however. This is a library, not necessarily designed to be used as a standalone program

The dataset is a subset of https://laion.ai/blog/laion-5b/, and if you want to train the model yourself, the diffusers repository (https://github.com/huggingface/diffusers) provides some examples for training from a checkpoint

GitHub

🤗 Diffusers: State-of-the-art diffusion models for image and audio generation in PyTorch - GitHub - huggingface/diffusers: 🤗 Diffusers: State-of-the-art diffusion models for image and audio generat...

#

now, if you want to train the entire thing from scratch, that's still possible but you may find yourself limited if you aren't funded or don't have a friendly relationship with andy jassy

fossil dune
#

That was a much more useful answer.
It sounds like the OSI needs to expand their licenses to cover ML licenses as well then.

#

The fact that the training scripts and dataset are available is what was really important to me.
I understand few people have access to the hardware to run the training, and yeah... there's really nothing we can do about that at this time.

storm jetty
#

they didn't state which specific instance class they used, but assuming the cheaper option is fine and you're happy with training taking a year, then you can train weights of your own for a cool 3.84 million USD

fossil dune
#

I do suspect a solution will eventually be found, some day, and not through just making computers cheaper.

storm jetty
fossil dune
#

And algorithm, you're making me think I'm missing something critical to how ML works.

#

Are you saying that the dataset really isn't that important, but rather the way it's built is?

#

Err, that the weights aren't that important, but the way they're built are?

#

I mean the big idea behind open source is that the users of said software have a right to understand and modify that software.
If the license permits that, then I think it's in the spirit of open source.

#

Even if the means of modifying it may not be practical for an average user.

#

(Most people don't know how to read/write source code and even more people can't afford the hardware to train these models)

storm jetty
fossil dune
#

Okay yeah, then I'd treat those weights like a firmware blob.

#

I'm more familiar with embedded stuff.

storm jetty
#

the model itself is originally described in a research paper - if you wanted, you could write your own implementation, train on the same dataset they used (with the same preprocessing), and though you will never get identical weights due to randomness, you will get a very similar result

fossil dune
#

I'm okay with not getting a perfect replica.
Open source hardware won't give you perfect replicas either.

storm jetty
#

the model's license also does permit modification and redistribution etc, just needs to be separate from the source code as it's more abstract

fossil dune
#

I feel like I'm not following something though.
Are you telling me that a paper describing the model is in-line with being public source code?

storm jetty
#

I'm saying that the model is the description, whereas the source code is merely an implementation

thick lynx
#

I'll add context around the relevant chunks with +-2 embeddings so there is more information

#

ideally I'd generate the transcriptions with openai whispers large model but gpu can't handle that so it's currently scraped from youtube which I'll slowly be replacing with whisper ones

#

Should have it able to answer roughly questions about topics mentioned during WAN shows once that's done though

Put up a basic frontend for the wan show search https://wan-show-search.vercel.app/. It has the past 4 months of WAN shows as its data. Currently sorting by most relevant to the prompt, I'll add metadata for date based sorting at some point. Transcriptions might fail a bit with company and product names since I can't run the best speech to text model on my computer. Feel free to dm me feedback.

i got around to watching the wan show and i am deeply disappointed in how they discussed darkviper's reaction content video, it is extremely ironic that they discussed his video without ever watching it when darkviper has had to deal with so much harassment from people criticizing what he said without watching his argument

hard lintel
#

Their instant backlash theory that was discussed seems to have been validated, though

#

But jeez... All they had to do was watch the video at some point. It was such a half-baked topic even though it was the title of tonight's show.

shut burrow
#

i just saw that linus has left a comment on the wan show saying that they'll address it next week, but it is insane to me that they'll leave this misinformation up for a week without addressing it more explicitly. it is also ironic given how linus in the past has said that he had shadow banned people for making moronic comments without watching the video

#

Transcript was added so it should be searchable. Pretty much have support for asking questions based on the WAN shows done so I'll probably get that out by the end of the weekend. No clue how I should title the cards for questions. Thinking maybe all the videos the data is sourced from since repeating the question looks stupid.

if anything, this drama started with linus / new wan writer for bringing this up at all since darkviper's video was not negative toward linus's reaction channel plans

karmic walrus
#

It doesn't seem like they interpreted his video in a negative way, though?

#

The drama seems to mainly be darkviper fans who are offended that Linus didn't watch the video, and that he apparently disagreed at some points?

#

I'm totally uncertain as to how people could interpret any part of this WAN show as Linus criticizing dark viper

#

Also, following the spirit of Linus, I found a reddit comment that said that the writer's summary was pretty competent, and Linus agrees in his edited pinned comment, while darkviper says that it's almost like the new writer has something against him

#

So I'm just going to assume that he has not cultivated a particularly reasonable fanbase

But the thing is darkviper has never actively looked for drama.
The big drama thing that happened was he wrote a script about how reaction content is bad for everyone but the person making the reaction content. He posted the script online for his viewers to proofread, then a bunch of drama youtubers found it and made videos about it without reading or understanding his arguments against reaction content. The intro video in his reaction content playlist explains everything that happened and why he dislikes drama
this whole mess is about how people create drama without actually reading/watching his videos. Had linus watched his video or read the show notes beforehand, then maybe they wouldn't have talked about darkviper's video or titled the wan show "my channel is getting called out" which can be seen as inflammatory when darkviper's video was, as we have all pointed out, agreeing with linus

@DarkViperAU @LinusTech I think the best path forward is to invite you on next week so I can publicly apologize for not taking the time to watch your video in advance, and then hopefully we can move on. I'll hit up your biz email or DMs. Whatever's open.

Are you saying that he accidentally tripped and fell into repeat-after-repeat drama with many of the largest content creators? My brother in WAN show, he is a DramaTuber. He has literally talked about how drama helps grow channels in the past. Not to mention, the dude has said racist things and has compared react content to r*pe. Yes, he actually did that. The dude is a 2023 Keemstar.

Also, if you actually watched the WAN show, you'd know that Linus didn't say anything negative towards him at all, nor did he misrepresent DarkViper's views. This comment says it best and I highly recommend that anyone curious about this situation read it: https://www.reddit.com/r/LinusTechTips/comments/10n7gra/darkviperaus_response_to_the_wanshow_segment/j67ye4f/ . Yet, DarkViper's response to the WAN show was that he was traumatized and he acted like Linus murdered his family.

The fact of the matter is that DarkViper purposefully fishes for drama for publicity, has done so countless times with other content creators like MoistCritikal, Hasanabi, Asmondgold, XQC, H3H3, Ludwig, and more, has a toxic community that loves drama since that is how he built his channel, and that LTT is just the latest victim since they didn't bother researching into DarkViper before using him for a click-bait WAN show title.

The best course of action for LTT is to cut their losses and ignore this DramaTuber. Any interaction with him will be negative since DarkViper's only goal is to purposefully incite drama.

He has literally talked about how drama helps grow channels in the past.
citation needed. based on the videos i've seen, he has said multiple times that he dislikes drama as he believes "it's a waste of time, especially due to opportunity cost" [1]

the dude has said racist things
i am unaware of this, can you show a source for this?

has compared react content to r*pe.
i have seen this and it was mentioned in his videos and i agree that was a really bad analogy to make and is indefensible

Yet, DarkViper's response to the WAN show was that he was traumatized and he acted like Linus murdered his family.
i mostly agree with the view that in the end they both agree on the main points on reaction content. i agree that darkviper's reaction could be seen as an overreaction, but given the context of what he has been through, it is understandable how it is frustrating for him.
he spent a lot of time working on an argument against reaction content which gets picked up by moistcritical, which didn't accurately depict his argument. they had privately settled that argument, but other reaction content creators reacted to moistcritical's video which brought a huge audience to the drama. the problem was no one watched the original argument so everyone had this negative perspective on him. there were people who harass him for it without knowing his argument which understandably negatively impacted darkviper's mental health. he continues to get comments from random people disliking him for it

The fact of the matter is that DarkViper purposefully fishes for drama for publicity, [...] that is how he built his channel
i think this is factually inaccurate, most of his videos are around GTAV. he mainly uses videos on reaction content creators as evidence for his argument. he built his channel from speedrunning

If the language starts getting vile it starts to seep more the dramatic way, and there has def been more vile words said on other platforms. I was mainly disagreeing with those who said that linus should retract the invitation because [their reasons]. I think the judgement should happen live

#

Also for all the “I don’t want drama” people you don’t have to watch it. Give it a little and time stamp guy will have you sorted out.

#

I just think it was more then a little short sighted to not even watch part of a video then… react to it. YouTube comments are nearly meaningless. You would have better luck with tea leaves.

round swallow
#

The drama ironically enough was created by the very react content that darkviper criticises

#

Its very easy to look at all of this and go "oh darkviper is just a jackass" but he really isn't. People simply dont have the attention span to read through the 14 page essay that darkviper put out and darkviper doesnt want to dedicate his channel to video essays. He has said many times in the past that his "rambles" section of the stream was never planned. It just evolved over time. He reads quite a lot of his chat messages and when something of importance catches his eye, he talks about it.

#

If dviper and linus collab on wan show I have feeling theyll realise that like 90% of their opinions overlap

earnest grail
#

So while I read darkviper’s doc on react content and agree with his conclusions, I think his approach has been actively terrible

#

So many unnecessary jabs and bad faith criticisms

#

Even in the document itself

#

Most of the people who make use of react content (even the bad kind) honestly think they’re doing something good/helping smaller creators, but the way viper characterizes them really feels to me like there’s no real desire to actually help a person realize the error of their ways and he just wants to “win the debate”

#

Now I don’t think that’s the case, that’s just what it comes across as

#

It’s really a shame, because I think what’s he’s saying is super important

#

But that plus a number of poor points will probably make a lot of it fall on deaf ears methinks

#

Wow alot of back and forth on this week's Wan show regarding the Darkviper thing. In my personal opinion this kinda shows that our community probably can't handle Linus or LMG by extension doing reaction videos.

dreamy pilot
#

They're already doing reaction videos though. Roasting Chinese rigs and testing tiktok hacks are the two recent ones that jump to mind - Given Linus' low opinion of react content he probably wanted them off the main channel but accepts he can't ignore the genre because he wants that 💵 -especially in a year he expects low growth compared to last.

DarkViper might have some good views on react content but given his history you'd have to be blind to not realise he's milking this/creating drama to gain relevance again. He loves to fly off the handle then play the victim, apologise or both.

I honestly wouldn't be surprised if his entire hatred for react content was manufactured so he could point to it when he feels the need to DMCA react videos aimed at his shitty behaviour/simple reuploads of said behaviour.

# dreamy pilot They're already doing reaction videos though. *Roasting Chinese rigs* and *testi...

Ok so it's kinda funny, because in my mind this exact line of reasoning is why I don't really like darkviperau's approach, because I feel like it kinda boils down to:

  1. You're wrong
  2. Character attack (which might be correct, but is ultimately irrelevant)
  3. Character attack (which might be correct, but is ultimately irrelevant)
  4. You are only saying that because it benefits you

Now given, it's less of a problem here because this is a discord with a few people casually chatting about a topic, but I think that form of discussion is super harmful when applied on a large scale and by people with a large following (or by people trying to push it to a large audience), plus it puts the emphasis on the other person being wrong rather than an honest and good faith search for the truth of the situation. Darkviperau might be doing all this for the clout and for free relevance, that's totally possible, but it's also totally possible that he truly believes what he's saying and fights for it for that reason. Regardless of his reasoning, the points for and against what he's saying remain the same, and so any more formal/public discussion of the validity of his points should include character attacks to an absolute minimum, because nobody is receptive to criticism right after they've been insulted.

Just watched dark vipers videos. His first on was decent. Nothing really in criticism of Linus. I can't recall anything bad Luke and Linus said about the video, however after listening can certainly agree that it was summarized poorly, and because it was summarized poorly, talked about poorly, and that's where a lot of the issue comes from. I know Linus is busy so I can certainly understand why he didn't watch the video, regardless it it being only 20 minutes. From what I recall at least he's said he doesn't very much consume YouTube videos.

That said, People's criticism of darkvipers latest response appear to boil down to the tone he typically speaks in, rather than what he actually said.

It can feel like he overly focuses on one point that reaction content and any content is biding for your attention/taking it away from something else that could use it. And it feels like he focuses on it so much that it's saying that anything taking attention away from anything else feels bad, even if that isn't his intention. He does feel genuinely passionate about it

Honestly, DVAU just takes this stuff too seriously. I get that making 1 video expressing why he may feel negative towards that type of content is OK, but he just gets way too triggered by anyone who decides to make such content, after which he just hyperfixates on that, until it develops into propper drama.

Part of the issue that because he didn't watch the video, some of what linus said seems to insinuate that DV said stuff that he didn't.

Twitch never gets polls. It's super annoying.

Hm.

Linus would make a reasonable MLA or local city councillor.

Partisan politics would drive him batty.

#

Anyways, his chatting about Mr. Beast / Jimmy sparked the thought for me.

Mann why did wan spend so long on the darkviper thing? Ive got his channel blocked on every platform hes on and im sitting here with him thrown in my face for 45mins, or skip half the show

strange mural
#

I liked that section quite a bit

#

I watch both darkviper and LTT a ton

shut burrow
#

i got around to watching the darkviper segment and i think it went well for everyone
however, it was weird that at 27:03, when linus switched to his screen for the "tiger protection stone" gag, it sadly break's darkviper's audio just as he's describing the negatives of reaction content
also, linus says that he disagrees with points that darkviper has made about reaction content, and i was really hoping they would discuss those points as it would be really interesting to see each other's view points

Can we be done with it already please? Holy hell. After wan last week everyone said "please dont make next week about this" yet they did.

spice oak
#

No, we must talk about it again next week, and the week after 😄

#

Couple things that Linus needs to change is 1) how he gets his view point on a video. By actually watching the video the comments are about. Otherwise he may get an incorrect view point by comments from people who also don't watch the video, and just comment, which, if you're gonna do that, shut your cake hole please.

And 2) following his own advice with cheaters. There's been a few times where he's cheated in channel super fun. To me, a game is no longer fun if you're gonna cheat. I think a new rule needs to be established for any games on channel super fun. If you cheat, you're automatically disqualified.

eternal raven
#

@grizzled charm 100% agree. I was really hoping LTT wasn't going to take the bait... but hook, line, and sinker.
I tuned in for the pre-show, as I have for years now, saw the tease of the guest, and for the first time, turned the WAN show off.

I honestly was not upset at the comments last week. I was mad at the piracy stuff but last week there was no need, I do care that for a while now seems like the wan show is focusing too much on drama. dont know. dont care much. i need a talking show to get by weekends so this fills the spot.

The bulk of merch messages are actual messages that get displayed on screen though, which is maybe what the senders care about? Never really got the appeal of non-question messages

The ones that appear on screen (in the middle where the big LTTSTORE.COM plug goes) flash up a lot earlier in the show and dry up toward the end

I also am generally not a fan of “guys please stop talking about it” attitude as can hurt good and meaningful dialog. And I have been know to -figuratively!!- “beat a dead horse” several times so I might not be the best to judge.

#

Anyways… back to your original question: I think it’s safe to assume that this should be the last we hear of it? For a while at least…. Probably?

Everything seemed pretty amicable, so I think that's a wrap

I'm not sure if this is the correct place to pitch the topic but in case you would like to make this a talking point on the WAN show; it appears youtube creators are getting hacked and locked out of their accounts, to which the hacker promptly renames the channel as TESLA, starts a "live" stream with a recording of Elon and promises free giveaways. I've now seen this happen to 2 channels that I follow. I have captured a screen shot of the stream if interested

That’s going to be an interesting WAN show if Linus covers it

So i sent a merch message some time ago, and i never saw it on screen is there some other place merch messages show up on? Appart from the live feed? Like if i am too lazy to watch the video again. (I listen to the wan show i dont watch the wan show). it would be nice for messages that get answered generate a email response. Maybe its too much to ask. I really wish they could live on the youtube app comment section so i could see them when i browse.

Every submitted Merch Message is reviewed by the producer and/or Linus and Luke, and can either be:

  • Shown on screen in the lower third
  • Shown and replied to on screen in the lower third
  • Curated for reading out and answering on the show - would also see a “Thanks! X person scored a merch” on screen
  • Rejected for a number of reasons - might still see a “Thanks! X person scored a merch” on screen
  • Marked Potential for Linus or Luke to review and either Reject or answer, usually when they run out of Curated messages toward the end of the show
  • Archived mainly to indicate the message has been dealt with as above

I get that Netflix is seeing 100 million households sharing their passwords as "OO look 100 more million accounts to sign up"...100% guarantee that is NOT what will happen.

#

If anything it'll make people cancel or not sign up

I cancelled as soon as they wanted more than $13.99USD for 1080p

what's the point of paying for 4 screens if all 4 screens have to "login" to my wifi every 31 days...yeah...not happening...I'll stick with Disney+ or others that let me go to my friends' houses and sign in to watch something together

His kids are to young to seem likely to be into it and Linus doesn't seem like someone who would of been into it when he was growing up dukThink

I guess more since I don't think Linus would be into it, means he wouldn't of been likely to introduce it to his kids
