something is strange

might be due to some timezone bug

brittle moon
#

maybe

#

I also made a system monitoring how long its running, and it also says 4h, so for a sec you had me worried i messed something up lol

other people on the chat are saying 5 hours

something might be wrong on youtube side

@brittle moon OG AF

the sacred timeline

Oh no, the YouTube VOD cuts off at least the first five minutes of the show. Starts in the middle of discussing topic 1

So someone, perhaps Colton, told Linus to keep ads enabled on twitch. For those who complain about the ads on twitch, I immediately switched to youtube because there is no ads. Now I only go on twitch for the pre-show, and then immediately switch to youtube. I keep the chat open on twitch, it just has the stream paused.

#

Is someone mad at twitch or some kind of contract requires ads to be enabled on twitch now?

tiny nimbus
#

Pretty sure it’s just because Colton wants the ad revenue from the people who won’t sign up to Floatplane

spice oak
#

so he's counting on people who are stubborn?

I still need to follow up on the previous episode, which still doesn't have subtitles enabled. Also mailed.

it's funny to me hearing countries that actually block or even warn you for "navigating the seas", when here unless you are watching football "for free", they just don't give a fuck

Interesting. Luke gets car sick for the same reason I do. If I do any kind of reading, like from my phone, it might make me feel car sick.

#

yep, since I no longer participate in twitch chat, neither do I with youtube, there's no point to it.

sharp plinth
#

oh yeah I pay zero attention to chat

spice oak
#

very low chance that Linus or Luke will see what I put in chat

i love how people catully buy the domains lines says on wan show

Dan makes WAN show so much better!

As of 4 March 2024, the day my subscription ended, there were 362 FP exclusives¹, totalling a whopping 118h 40min 32s of exclusive content.

Not all of it is great content, ofc, but I was plenty satisfied with the price-content ratio, though not for a year-long subscription. I'll likely be buying the sub for a month or 2 every year.

¹the last one to be released while I was still subbed was "Extras - Apple Vision Pro Review from Linus' Perspective"

elfin cloud
#

the raw footage content is also great. makes you realize how good the editors are 😊

dense ridge
#

Worth it for super Chex alone

#

Pre show vod is also nice

vague birch
#

FP chat is a perk too

tiny nimbus
#

FP chat is pretty much useless to anyone east of the Atlantic

vague birch
#

I'm in the northern EU mate, you watch it live if you want to

tiny nimbus
#

Sure you’ll get the odd LTT build stream during the day, but a 2-3am start for WAN Show is just not manageable for most

vague birch
#

I call it a preference and a minor inconvenience 🤷

tiny nimbus
#

Pulling a night shift for a video podcast is certainly a choice

vague birch
#

Yeah, night shift ain't for everybody

My insomnia usually ends up aligning with when WAN starts most weeks.

spice oak
#

insomnia is not a good thing to have

My brain just doens't like to shut off, the down side of my autism

sharp plinth
spice oak
#

Yeah. Is it like you're tired, but can't fall asleep?

sharp plinth
#

yep. i'm usually in a lot of pain, which leads to me sleeping at random times, so my sleep pattern can randomly move around.

spice oak
#

chronic pain?

#

yeah, that would make it difficult to sleep

#

Quick question, I just got an advertisement for sydney morning herald on the first minute of wan show, is this the dynamic ad injection thing I keep hearing about

#

I guess the server must have known which advertisement to insert based on my ip address?

real siren
fiery gulch
#

Not that I mind but that just got my attention

#

Iphone, using overcast

real siren
#

It would be an overcast ad based on your IP

fiery gulch
#

I have overcast premium and the developer is not known for inserting ads into this podcast app

#

But I would check as well, this is curious

fiery gulch
#

yeah I was told by various other overcast users that the mp3 is downloaded from the original server

#

I did mail the developer and will see but considering I have overcast premium and the developer of overcast is a known podcaster who has pretty strong takes about these ads, this is pretty curious

fiery gulch
#

Ah it does show DAI on this “megaphone” thing

#

is this something that LTT is okay with though? to have ads dynamically inserted into the podcast? I only listen to wan show every now and then so I may not be up to date on their take on these

frozen agate
#

Honestly, I don't see how this is different than a non-premium Spotify user having ads put into their podcasts, idk how spotify handles that, but I doubt they wait for a 4 hour episode to finish to make you listen to ads

graceful swan
fiery gulch
#

that's fair, I was just assuming all the ad reads I'll hear on wan show will be human read, but I guess DAI might just be the future

im doing house chores and listening to the wan show on linus and luke doing 20mins+ mental gymnastics talking themselves into taking vpn sponsorships, god dam. get yourselves together, take their sponsorships and stop talking about it, accept the fact on your sponsor is enabling pedos and stop trying to reason about it; or stand on the moral high ground and not take their money. so many time spent just talking about a topic they have done in the past, guess those money bags are too bigpepoJuice

frozen agate
#

🇱 take if I've ever seen one

brittle moon
mellow wedge
#

I see, so the vpn providers don't have the issue of enabling pedos

brittle moon
#

kinda like cost of doing business. In order to have a private VPN, they have to do that. Unfortunate part of the world. If theyre able to remove pedos and stuff, then the VPN isnt private, which defeats the purpose of a VPN for most people

they could also just give the feds the worst people that harm people but also protect the users who just download movies or whatever

#

I wonder if they could have a cutout in the terms of use of the VPN on the specific crimes where they will not stand in the way of investigators, but they will still not log anything

brittle moon
#

the issue is that if they keep logs for anyone, then they arent a no-log vpn

#

and if they maintain no logs for anyone, then they are harboring actual scum, which luke said he wouldnt be able to live with

Just curious did anyone else see that news via Bing has become increasingly blocked by the demand to download the bing app?

Might be worth talking about. I have screenshots.

You used to be able to click on the stories that said "on msn" and then click a button to expand the story.. now that button has been replaced with a "continue reading on the app". I Get wanting people to migrate to the app, but this seems scummy.

I used to be able to click the app button then the android back button but now that doesn't even work.

its quite the info dumb they have been able to scrape

though if you are sending stuff in public servers you should always do that with the assumption that it is being logged/saved

In a few Wan show episodes the guys have said how much they dislike teams; Just wondering have they ever explained why ? I have moved our enterprise over to teams in the past 4 years and embraced all the advanced functionality and for the vast majority of our workforce it is painless. Curious as to what the experiences exactly are in LMG

harsh sundial
# misty cloud In a few Wan show episodes the guys have said how much they dislike teams; Just ...

Not LMG but I use Teams for both work and a massive non-profit I work for. Teams is a dumpster fire. We do a ton of webinars and meetings over Teams. A vast majority of us can’t chat on Teams for Windows (it just says you can’t chat until the meeting starts). Notifications hardly ever work. You can’t mass delete chats but Teams insists on keeping the chat for that one meeting you had FOREVER… How can a program as big as Teams doesn’t let you multi-select and delete a chat?

#

Video call quality is worse than Skype…that Microsoft turned into Teams.

#

Discord call quality is SO MUCH BETTER and it’s free…

#

Teams is a worse MSN Messenger

Just sat through that 7-hour-plus charity auction stream and by FAR the best moment was when Elijah found out that far from being alive after “popping off on Twitch a few years ago,” Bob Ross died in 1995 before Elijah was even born

Aaaaaaand it’s getting light outside in the UK 💤

There was a whole lot more interactivity over on Whatnot with the live auctions, people “accidentally” submitting bids, live chat etc that wouldn’t necessarily fit in the context of stream clips

Would like to see DLLs take on watcher entertainment (the BuzzFeed unsolved guys) moving everything to their streaming service

restive rain
#

There are far to many streaming services

cloud thicket
#

Yep, I also don't think their content is high enough quality to warrant the cost, they do travel, paranormal and food shows, like that's usually low tier cable TV at best

#

I like it, but as a YouTube video I pull up when I want to see someone ghost hunt while making jokes

#

Now how this applies to LTT is a whole other thing, I personally subscribe and unsubscribe from floatplane based on my finances and content releases, would love to hear Linus's and lukes take since they're integral to running floatplane

discord is literally written for a browser. you can run it in most browsers.

woudln't the actual number be higher? if everyone who presses it with the extention dislikes and people who dont use the extention dislike that would = more then the people who use the extention and dislike. Or do those extentions "inflate" the numbers by guessing if X people disliked with the extention there is probably another Y amount of people who also disliked, aka its not just the raw number of those who disliked with the ext?

#

Listening to wan now.
I will say I dont appreciate the take that Keller has that nobody will want to play games from today because games in the future will be much better.

#

If the future continues to move towards games as service i won't take part in any games from that point.

strong tide
#

i dont think thats what he said tho

#

he also said that if we wanted to play a game that doesnt exist, there will be videos of said games and we can train an AI to just simulate it exactly as it was, without the underlying hardware, software, or anything from the original

#

@neat kiln

#

he did say that "nobody will want to play games from today", but he also added onto it with the above

#

not agreeing or disagreeing, just wanted to point out his point wasnt done after "nobody will want to play games from today"

#

maybe what he meant was that no body will want to preserve everything cause we dont have to and there are some stuff we just cant preserve

neat kiln
#

I also do think he's a bit "optimistic" about where we'll be in 10 years.
He also mentioned something about playing games from he 1980s based off of an old youtube video.
That doesn't encompass the many games from the past 10-15 years in which one vido or even many don't show a ton of content that these games have

strong tide
#

yeah i think he's optimistic as well. but he has an agenda lol. hes smart and everything, but he is a CEO of an AI company

neat kiln
#

"no body will want to preserve everything cause we dont have to and there are some stuff we just cant preserve"
That may be even worse if that's what was meant

strong tide
#

is this ur first time on the internet?

#

lol

#

he wants us to have as much eggs in AI cause all his eggs are in it rn

#

but maybe he wasnt capping, who knows

strong tide
#

cause he literally contradicted himself

#

he said "nobody will want to play games from today", but then he also presented a way how to do it. how to play old games

neat kiln
#

I'll be near completely outside of AI. Until it can be realistically and completely locally controlled outside of needing to run on external servers I'm not interested. I've always had a drm free anti-"as a service" mindset when it comes to computing

strong tide
#

im curious. why?

neat kiln
#

Because I like to own my shit, and not rely on keeping up with paying a monthly fee to have access to it? Or relying on internet. Or being under the control of large companies that can take things away for no reason like ubisoft.

strong tide
#

same

neat kiln
#

Had enough things disappear now that I am a preservationist and data hoarder.
And I've a few things that I revisit that simply aren't available online now

strong tide
#

so for the old games stuff, what ur saying is that u would rather play the game, like the actual original source, than to play a perfectly AI simulated clone?

#

what if the actual source is gone?

#

or like whats going on with the crew 2

neat kiln
#

I'd have a lot of trouble even trusting that the "clone" is perfectly simulated. but even if it was, I wouldn't pay unless I could run it offline locally, and drm free.
I don't think I could play a perfectly simulated "clone" of something like the fallout games.

#

least not in my lifetime

strong tide
#

i mean, i cant see why it cant. all the wikis out there. all the forums. everything on the internet about the game. how it works. everything

#

in my lifetime, idk. but im going on about the perfect clone

neat kiln
strong tide
#

the binary files. the exe. whatever. its getting hard to actually pin point where the actual game exists when we are talking about what the game is

#

also im rly tired, sorry lol

neat kiln
#

You don't think the AI would hallucinate a million things with all the various Mods for various games?
Let's say you could only play minecraft with an AI.
How would it know what version to use. what assets. What videos are and aren't modded

#

these things can't be hand selected to create a large enough dataset

strong tide
#

thats true. i still think it could do it tho. if it hallucinates, just tell it to stop. there's prob going to be a community of people trying to simulate their fav game with AI

#

i could see it already lol

#

somewhere like this. where a few dozens of dedicated people who want to play a game that isnt available anymore

neat kiln
#

There's a few games that are gone. I think we should rather push for a future where things are preserved, rather that waiting and hoping that an AI will be able to run them.
Because when that happens, I'm imagining a million AI rules where companies step in and force it to refuse to make their Intellectual property. Meaning you couldn't even play a copy of mario because nintendo told the AI not to. Or you couldn't play an old gta properly because the tracks that were in it aren't allowed to be distributed via AI by the publisher.
I don't think AI at all will solve games preservation or be anything close

strong tide
#

oh yeah. god i cant wait to see how that plays out lol

neat kiln
#

Or the AI can't generate explicit or horrific content that was in some games because the company running the AI says "no"

strong tide
#

i would like the future of preservation as well. but its not happening so

#

there will be models in the gray areas of the internet where its made just to simulate games. ik im playing around with that immediately when its available lol

woeful crescent
gloomy marsh
#

Has anyone tried the read-out-loud function of Chat GPT 4? I was thinking it was going to talk like a normal AI voice but its not. It simulates someone actually talking with their voice changes as they read and get towards the end and it takes a simulated breath like a real speaker would. I didn't know their AI voice was so advanced for what it is which is simply to read out the text it prints. Kinda cool but also creepy asf.

The point isn’t that we should be getting things for cheaper. The point is that we’re getting them for too cheap, the person making the things we get isn’t getting paid fairly, and the middle man takes whatever profits were there.

"So if you did want to sleuth out what Framework’s cooking next, you might want to take a look at the web of relationships that the company’s building because there’s an explicit hint about that in its press release: “We’ve had a number of early partnership discussions with other startups in our investors’ portfolios,” one line reads."

If frame.work can build a NAS chassis with a backplane for drives, and a way to plug in your motherboard from an old laptop for the compute that would pair well with Linus's NAS software investment.

He's answered that many times before.
Some people just want to throw money at the screen and don't care, so let them

spice oak
#

Some people who do that don't realize that. They're maybe a new subscriber and don't realize that Linus won't read them. So why hasn't Linus disabled superchats if they don't work for him?

#

If you read the superchats that have been submitted, they are expecting a response back.

#

I think this is something that should be addressed on wanshow this week 🙂

frozen agate
gentle bear
#

They always say during the stream not to do it

frozen agate
#

literally every show

#

it is part of the "what are merch messages" talk

spice oak
#

you keep repeating your point without answering the question, why doesn't Linus just disable superchats?

#

instead of having to mention every single live stream to not send superchats

#

if you've ever read some of the superchats, you would know that those who sent it, didn't know the superchat they just sent, would be ignored. So why keep them enabled?

graceful swan
spice oak
#

You're dodging the question again. Some of the superchats sent are not by those who know they will be ignored. They think that Linus will respond to them. It's immoral.

frozen agate
#

They literally just answered the question, how is that dodging the question?

#

That is a decision for the business team, not Linus

graceful swan
#

there is no moral obligation with super chats

#

If you don't like it, don't watch, don't comment on the forums, and don't chat in discord. Because if it bothers you, there is the OPTION for you to find a community and creator that shares your moral values or is willing to bend to your demands. Or you can make it your mission to protect other people who would be hurt by the moral injury of unseen superchats to unsuspecting viewers and can watch every live stream and comment first "THEY DON'T READ SUPERCHATS SAVE YOUR MONEY" That would be a great service to the community, rather than this complain... which I assure you is not original or the first

graceful swan

true, true

spice oak
#

And when you can't win an argument, tell the person to go elsewhere.

frozen agate
#

I think you may have misunderstood, there was no argument, you asked a question, and were given several answers

#

including one which had a suggestion that if you didnt like the way things are, then you could always go elsewhere instead of hunting for drama

spice oak
#

And your answer doesn't cover if the person sending the superchat is new, and doesn't realize that Linus will not respond to them.

frozen agate
#

if someone is new, they shouldnt be sending a super chat in the first place

spice oak
#

why?

frozen agate
#

do you go and throw money at every person you meet in the streets?

#

I doubt it

#

so why would you do it online?

spice oak
#

other youtubers have superchats and do respond to them

#

so it's expected

#

that's an invalid comparison

#

online you are viewing a stream, there is superchats, and typically with superchats, the person doing the live stream responds to them.

#

they're not labeled as a donation

frozen agate
#

no, it isn't expected, that is merely a false expectation on behalf of the naive

#

anyway, I do not have time to argue with someone who is out to hunt drama, so, feel free to keep fishing, but I'm muting the chat now so I don't have to see it

if you want to continue the conversation, you will have to send me a donation.

Some creators also respond to regular chats, but there is no moral obligation to respond to them all. Nor does the financial contribution of a super chat entitle you to anything. It is a donation.

And I am not telling you to go elsewhere, merely let you know the internet is big and full of different communities and that life is best when you find the right community for you. I also gave you a way to save others in the community from the problem you have, but that was dismissed.

So if you don't want to find a better community, or contribute to this one, you just want to complain until you get your way?

spice oak
#

Nope. Just bringing up a point that was made on why superchats should be disabled.

#

And apparently the middle finger emoticon is not allowed on here, my apologies.

It works for me. 😆

hmm it was removed as soon as I tried to use it 😄

That's interesting.

It may be worth mentioning that before merch messages they wouldn't always manage to get to all YT superchats (even if you only take into account the ones that were still in the dashboard and hadn't just disappeared because YT reasons), now at least those throwing money at the screen can get something in return if they don't get to your question.

#

Also, kinda off-topic, YT live chat is actual trash, why would anyone use that? Load up the YT livestream, because it's pausable and therefore superior even if the quality is 💩, and F off to Twitch (if you're a normie, like me) or FP chat, then you won't see superchats and therefore they'll no longer exist

prisma needle
#

I mean, there are thousands of people who throw money at YouTubers and Twitch streamers through Bits and Superchats every day, and thousands of messages are ignored. This is no different, except Linus draws attention to the fact that there's a better alternative, and NOW people are mad.

#

Making the world a better place just backfires so often.

spice oak
#

So for those who are thinking that Linus will respond to a superchat, turn them off. That's the moral and right thing to do.

#

No need to remind people every single time that they won't respond. It's much easier.

Not in this context. I look forward to wanshow if they come up with this topic.

#

can you please try to drama farm somewhere else

#

im sure there are worse problems to complain about

restive rain
#

maybe iny our dreams

spice oak
#

ah yes, claiming it's drama instead addressing the moral issue. Another way to deflect something.

graceful swan
#

again, I find your conduct here a moral issue. But you don't seem to care. Only enforcing YOUR morals on others. not very cool.

restive rain

#

There’s no moral issue here because there’s no guarantee they’ll respond to your message. Merch messages exist because super chats are bugged and don’t always show up in the dashboard.

#

Not all hills are worth dying on. The sooner you learn that, the better off you’ll be.

spice oak
#

Then I guess we have different morals.

tiny mauve

How is anything that people volunteer their money to immoral?

tiny mauve
#

btw, this is the super chat info section

#

nothing there says to the person buying "the creator** WILL** see your message"

spice oak
#

Do you read the terms and conditions of everything before you buy it?

tiny mauve
spice oak
#

not everyone does that

#

most people don't do that

restive rain
#

also weather you read it or not they still apply lol

spice oak
#

Scroll up to understand.

cursive tiger
#

also the whole problem with super chats in the first place was that youtube's buggy dashboard thing wouldn't even show them

#

there was a fairly recent show where someone spent i think it was $50 on a superchat and it didn't show up in the dashboard, a bunch of people pointed it out in floatplane chat

spice oak
#

Correct. So if they don't show for him, for those who are new, that send a superchat before Linus can explain not to send superchats, why not just disable superchats?

#

It would save the money of those who are new trying to send a superchat.

Consumers blindly agreeing to terms of service because they would take hours to read, has been like that for over 30 years.

gentle bear
#

If you’re going to spend your hard earned money, you should probably be doing your research first, and any failure to do so is on you

#

I’m going to stop engaging this at this point too, I think the point has been well made that so far not a single person in here has agreed with you, you’re obviously entitled to your opinion, but the evidence is out there overwhelmingly supporting that LMG and Linus are not evil, and are good to their fanbase. Not everything they do will be agreeable to everyone, that’s just a given, but come on, they have an extremely good track record of doing the right thing for the community.

spice oak
#

I never said Linus was evil. I just find that particular business practice to be immoral.

Sorry, but you're lying. There's no way you read every terms of service and Eula out there.

God, I'm glad I muted this chat, it's still going on? Consider me disappointed in your lack of ability to hear out the points made by others, someone ping me when it's over lmao

crude sandal
#

they've been told the exact reason why multiple times now lol

#

nothing they say will change that, and yet they continue to be a clown

They've dragged this on for a while day nearly, I literally gave them a reason yesterday morning

this is not the first time either

and other times on other topics too

Linus directly addressed the non-sensical backlash to superchats back in December (timestamp link)

Tried to quote the relevant part here but got warshipped for using 26 (?) “unicode/emoji”

#

Linus did say “I can’t stop them” when it’s technically feasible to turn superchats off, but he also called out specific superchats in the past while highlighting how broken YouTube’s dashboard still is, and at some point in the past turned superchats off only for some people to get mad at him for not allowing them to “throw money at the screen”

Can't please everyone, so he's gonna stick with the option that "If you wanna send me monies, so be it." and can't find real fault with that..

It’s WAN Show day!!

#

Week flew by for me

tiny nimbus
#

Same, not least because I spent most of the past week listening to a top 1000 countdown 😂

#

God I hope Luke gets to talk about the Unheard edition of Escape from Tarkov and how the devs are directly lying, gaslighting, and intentionally changing the features of other versions of the game to remove features promised with purchase.

#

not only that, but they're also "geniusly" attacking a direct competitor in their own genre as the entire community is upset at them and leaving Tarkov.

tiny nimbus
#

Didn’t think Luke was keeping up with Tarkov news nearly as much these days

glossy latch
#

Right, but this is pretty huge in the gaming space in general. Overwatch 2 did something similar with the promise of PvE

It would be cool if we could get a topics preview for WAN Show for FP subscribers

I still think they will be late to the scheduled time.

what if it is a NAS launch...

that would be cool, but more likely someone has a plane to catch or something lol

wan is at <t:1714161600:t> today (that converts to your timezone)

How dare they. I’m gonna be upset for FIVE WHOLE MINUTES and then move on with my day.

I originally wrote "if" but when reading it back, i realized theyre almost certainly still going to start after 1

#

Well atleast it’s gonna be before normal time then

#

We hope

brittle moon
#

well, the "normal time" is like <t:1714181400:t>, so hopefully itll be before that lol

tiny nimbus
#

The music podcast I’m listening to ends in almost exactly half an hour so will be interesting to see if there’s any pre-show overlap

brittle moon
#

knowing them, they probably wont start until 1:30 or 2 so

main falcon
#

I have a feeling they're kidding with the 2000z start time and will be 0230z same as usual

brittle moon
#

i dont think they would do that

graceful swan
#

did they say anything about guests?

brittle moon
#

no

#

my guess is that one of them has a plane to catch

graceful swan
#

yeah makes sense, but i thought they mentioned guests at one point and not just Jim Keller. That's another reason for the change of schedule

brittle moon
#

I don't remember them mentioning guests other than Jim Keller

#

happy late show!

tiny nimbus
#

I’ve started listening to the next music podcast

graceful swan
#

maybe its because of canuks game

brittle moon
#

i dont think any of them really care about sports
