Now I'm going to have to view the YouTube ones more I keep missing all the best ads on floatplane. Unless they release a higher tier that includes all ads 🤔

#

There was only one creator I'd watch the sponsor spots through. And that's Tomska. If Dennis does more engaging ads like this, I'm certain Linus could sell their sponsor spots for more, as people will be less likely to skip them.

I can't believe Dennis is getting me to consider dropping ad block AND YTPremium

The latest technlinked is the only one I've noticed so far. Have ad integrations on the other channels been happening under Dennis?

it is, it's just that there are some stuff that are missing from what I heard

I generally don't get into random controversies a lot. It is tiring.

yeah, after like... idk 8-10 years of hearing about various ones, it's fuckin' tiring

maybe more, I remember quitting twitter 6-7 years ago-ish except for maybe FJF

is there like a massive change in tarkov for them talking about this for so long?

#

im still lost

glossy apex
#

its a massive problem in a very popular game, and they got wrapped up in it

Generally controversies have the same near pattern:
it's basically the same near damn story, and at the end of it, nothing has changed. Maybe there is some good things? But generally nothing will change.

oh yeah, they also Jingled The Keys, BSG did

TL;DR: cheaters have been ruining online games since online games have existed.

The cheating is so bad, I haven't touched the game in months.

only online game that didnt had cheaters was club penguin. change my mind.

Ah yes the swiss cheese model

Tarkov is gear vs gear.

If you lose, you get the other guys stuff

#

So you cheat, get their good gear, sell it to someone for real money.

and I know, the Swiss cheese model is too general, but it should give us a model why

Dude, it looked sick, I was opening the store last weekend as they were saying that.

I'd still nab some pins but now I'm down to wait for my next order

They were super surprised with just how popular pins were, so they'll definitely restock I think. Linus wasn't really sure pins would work until then

Listening to wan show about generations. Entertaining, I’d argue millennials are now as materialistic and wasteful as their parents and boomers though. We finally have the money to be the same way. I know so many nerds who buy figures and shit, it’s not fine china but it’s just equally useless.

It’ll happen to the zoomers too. As an xennial it’s funny to see the generational arguments.

spice oak
#

when Linus explained the millennial pause, I now see that quite a bit. You can tell they don't trust technology working. You can also tell they are impatient by only wanting to do one take.

jovial tapir
#

Could say the same for late stage crypto grifters

#

Then xennials who are fed up with the money systems would then reactionarily go towards whatever scam Mr Beast or Logan Paul is running

#

I would argue we buy materials because the nature of our interests have been increasingly physical. This isn't the same as a Funko pop obsession, I could easily make fun of those who use Squishmallows. Half of those people tend to be cut off from the world and introverted/socially inept.

Oh. Linus did a take on generations? As someone close to his age it’s kinda weird at times to see his takes on things

#

Like Linus is pretty early millennial, but also is a buisness owner and started his family basically half a decade before most people of his cohort

graceful swan
#

Linus and I (same year of birth, but im a few months older) aren't really early millenials. We were born around a third into the generation.
The kids born in 81/82 were the ones with the opportunities for rocket success with tech.

The boomers are tied to a baby boom from the (post) war. The subsequent generations are based on that. Statistics are real not marketing fabrications.

proven torrent
#

The only generation officially recognized by the census bureau are the baby boomers. The rest were explicitly fabricated by marketing execs

#

"Younger people are different than older people" is not up for debate, that's a fact of life. but the arbitrary lines drawn between them is pseudoscience at best.

#

Millennial was a term coined by a playwright and a marketing consultant, not statisticians.

@fiery tulip which 6650 do you have? The last update to HWL made it so casting lumos made my game chugs hard. Haven't played since. Have you run into this?

No Wan tonight?

its rather my slow m.2 sata ssd and my 16gigs of ram

i swear since upgrading to win11 16gig seems to be not enough anymore

I don't think it's a slow M.2 to blame. I have my game installed on a RAID 0 of 5 SSDs and I play at 1366x768. It still has issues

I'm not sure it's denuvo. Was that bundled in with the early access? Bc lumos didn't used to bring the game to its knees.

its the ssd and maxed ranm usage tho

i only encountered one single bug an a single spot in the 50hours i played\

I'll have to play with the settings. If it's a ram hog, I'll have to go back to my old rig that has 32 of DDR3. My R5 only has 16 DDR4 as well.

I wonder if ram speed plays a roll.

It could be that casting lumos in the castle is a problem but it's fine elsewhere. I'm second guessing myself on a lot of stuff at this point.

"Ive dropped my fair share of hard R's in the past"

nova gate
#

Its probably not that outlandish for someone who doesnt hang out in circles where the term comes up to think "the hard R" refers to a bad(/'hard') word that begins with R, so I don't really blame him for misunderstanding. Good that luke was able to catch him on that though.

#

Lmfao how did Linus flub that

upper fjord

People talk about "the n word" so think thats the only nonexplicit way people refer to that term. Most bad words are "the <first letter> word", so "the hard R" refering to the final letter is unusual, at least in a relatively sheltered space.

^Same, except I'm geographically east of where Linus is based in Canada (not immediately close, but 3 provinces over in Manitoba), and watching this live, I was also under the assumption like Linus where he meant the term for learning/cognitive disabilities when he said that. I have never heard the term "Hard R" until that moment. Luke may have totally and possibly single handedly saved not only Linus, but possibly LMG as a whole. In a general sense, people know what the N-word is, but not in that context when someone says "Hard R". It may be a common term where it's used in certain places, but not so common in other places.

Regardless, as Luke mentioned in the show, they dodge bullets like Neo, as I paraphrase on what he said.

Ok now i am curious if LTT could make a video comparing Open Source Alternatives like Nextcloud and Libreoffice to paid products like Office 365;

Like for the small business i am in with 3 employees, low cost of running things is our priority due to low income for now so we swapped to libreoffice and slack as our main tools, along with google video chat or possibly switching to video chat alternatives if we find one that works;

#

Obviously though that doesn't scale presumably for larger organizations and i'm interested what benefits are there for scaling to closed source software like 365. especially now that chatgpt4 is being integrated into 365;

#

Well I guess 2020 kinda put sitting in office buildings in the past already.

When menial office work can be performed by an AI it would be financially stupid to keep people on staff to do those tasks

#

Art is a whole separate conversation

Look no further than the chilling effects of face filters

#

you don't see pores on the internet anymore, all the faces are smooth

It's merely a tool in art. Art is meant to convey meaning, even if that meaning is simply making something pretty.
Even using AI, it takes a lot of work to get exactly what's in your head into the output.
Yes there's people making art fairly effortlessly with it, but most of that isn't thoughtful into what they're actually trying to create with it.

Then we get botox injections just because people got photo filters

#

Then we get the collapse of the appreciation of art due to deskilling it

#

Even then, the people who it deskills claim they have skill in 'prompting'

#

You can still appreciate art, while allowing anyone to do it.
You know the arguments people used against digital art all together in favor of physical painting?

#

Well, for one, texture

#

Can't stipple

#

That it was deskilling it. That allowing more people to enter the art field would cause art to lose its alure

#

Ai is but another tool, just as any other digital tool

#

It is something different, and the fast-feedback nature does introduce a ton of problems in our time

#

Same argument was made against computers in favor of hand drawn animation.

#

Is the real tragedy the skills gap in understanding it?

#

These companies are pushing a certain narrative

#

that it's 'smart'

neat kiln
#

All these tools have made the ability of artists to create works faster and more efficiently.
Ai is going to be but another tool. And utilizing it a skillset indeed

#

I won't mind the methods of the copyright office to not allow purely generative ai works to be copyrighted, but that shouldn't mean you can't use it in an arsenal of tools

#

AI art is like that one reply-guy that never stops shitting out useless proverbs tho. It pollutes spaces

#

When used properly by true artists, yeah it engenders creativity

#

well, good faith artists (in this context, the good faith part directly relates to human production)

#

The larger the datasets for the ai, the better it will be and less "copying" we get out of it as well. The more diverse output

jovial tapir
#

I fear outcome-oriented art rather than the journey

#

like... it will just be reduced to images of images

There's a lot of things that can be done simply with programs and tools, that people still enjoy to do manually. I think the same people that enjoyed that before will still enjoy it now. But these ais especially allow people. Who otherwise might not be able to express themselves very well to do so more clearly and effectively

jovial tapir
#

Humans copied, but that's because they wanted to

#

AI copies, but it's because the company who created it wants you to

#

big difference
