[tulip hatch]

watch the viewer count drop now that everyone has gotten what they came for

#SponsorGang

[blissful ibex]

Thanks!

[olive bronze]

its the TaiWAN Show

[tulip hatch]

They're in Thailand?!?

[olive bronze]

thailand and taiwan are different countries

[woeful crescent]

I've had to deal with someone who thinks Asia is a country, and those are all just states 😐

[tiny mauve]

that would be ThaiWAN

[tiny mauve]

Murica?

[woeful crescent]

Nope.. but someone who got about the same level of education in geography.. and history too I guess :p

[olive bronze]

i hate couches that are nothing but a bunch of huge pillows

how can they have wan show after dark if it's not even noon?

[woeful crescent]

Fire Colton Week.

[sleek kayak]

Hello! I'm an hour late so did I miss much?

[woeful crescent]

Yes, about 2hrs 20min worth of content.. some of it constructive, lots of it dealing with mics in pre-show :p

[sleek kayak]

ah okay

[olive bronze]

hey choice of mic is very important

[gloomy marsh]

​​Talk about Ludwig's New Video Game Company.

[tiny mauve]

they don't read discord for topics

at the very least not during the show

[gloomy marsh]

That's why people should echo it

[woeful crescent]

Post in Twitch Chat.. they don't read that either but you'll feel closer 😉

[gloomy marsh]

Common its a big deal. He is becoming a publisher and Pirate Software as his Director in Strategy for all their indi's they sign on.

[woeful crescent]

They already sell his Bidet, what more do you want??

[gloomy marsh]

VIdeo Game talk? I am sorry is that not what they talk about?

[tiny mauve]

not necessarily

[plain aurora]

So adobe keeping track of what we are desiging....

[tiny nimbus]

Weird, YouTube didn’t show this WAN Show on my home page (had to dig into the channel’s “Live” tab to find it) and the VOD so far only has 84k views

[maiden shadow]

It showed it to me on my homepage, weird that it didn't for you

[keen bloom]

FYI affinity has a sale 50% off. Free your software or at least own it. Adobe has gone to dam far.

[spice oak]

the youtube algorithm works in mysterious ways

[plain aurora]

Work pays for mine

[graceful swan]

your work might not like Adobe owning your work.

[charred atlas]

https://www.youtube.com/live/tpZf4dsIfEk?si=9NozFlUjYYj2wWlu

[plain aurora]

It’s out of my hands

[tiny mauve]

I exclusively use the subscriptions page, it's much better than the home page and it won't give you recommendations but rather the stuff that I'm actually on youtube for

[tiny nimbus]

The home page algo got pretty good at predicting what I’d want to watch at certain points during the week, putting WAN at the top of the page as the first thing I’d want to watch on a Saturday morning, but last night’s wasn’t on there at all 🤷‍♂️

[drifting creek]

My home page is great but I spent a lot of time curating my content. Even selecting videos with 0.001 of watch time just so it influences my algo

[cursive tiger]

if you really want them to see it you could send a merch message

[cursive tiger]

the algorithm's all over the place for me

it probably doesn't help that i never smash that like button when i watch a video

and also since i subbed on floatplane it's gotten quite confused as to why i suddenly stopped watching a channel i used to watch quite often, and then started recommending a bunch of the videos from other channels that popped up last august

[graceful swan]

hahaha. years ago I got annoyed by being told to like and subscribe, so now I have 3 videos on youtube that I have liked.

has LTT ever done a video on how people actually watch youtube videos?

I just realized that I go to subscriptions, and then add videos of interest to watch later and watch from there. But I wonder both statistically and on a personal narrative level, how do people actually watch videos.

I think there are people who enable notifications and will watch things as soon as they go live, but I disable all notifications

[tiny mauve]

Most people I know who enable notifications don't watch it as it goes live, which bothers me beyond reason. The inbox gets so full for no reason... I don't get how anyone can live like that.

[restive rain]

can't wait to see linus's take on all the new iOS stuff during WAN

esp with the fact AI is locked to iPhone 15 pro/pro max

wonder what he will say about all of the customization

"andrOiD HAs had tHiS FOR foREver anD iOs is juSt NoW GeTtING it??" 💀

[chilly heath]

iOS 18 DB1 supports T-9 dialing.
https://www.reddit.com/r/iOSBeta/comments/1dcvqcz/ios_18_db1_phone_now_supports_t9_dialing/

[plain aurora]

Tbh yay. I am happy with my 14 pro not having AI

[spice oak]

Oh Linus gonna talk about this for sure

[maiden shadow]

They released a video covering some things from the keynote not long ago

[spice oak]

and here he is talking about t9 dialing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uxsTpMXzEU0

[brittle moon]

Am i the only one who doesnt understand the hype around T9 dialing? Like if im wanting to call someone, theyre already going to be in my contacts, so i just call them that way

[graceful swan]

yeah i dont care about t9, and im old enough to have used it when it was new.

[odd grail]

It’s just an old habit, and something Linus in particular seems to care about quite a bit. I don’t think there’s any real hype about it.

[brittle moon]

I also am not sure I understand it completly. Like is it just autocompleting from contacts?

[odd grail]

Yes. It autocompletes from contact names, based on dialing numbers that correspond with letters.

[brittle moon]

ah ok. Yeah it would make more sense to just search for the contact then

[odd grail]

Exactly

[tiny nimbus]

The idea being that you could type 254 on your keypad and it’d suggest “ajgeiss” for you to tap on and call - takes a special kind of muscle memory to call contacts like that

[elfin cloud]

or 1-800-companyname

[tiny nimbus]

No, that doesn’t involve T9 dialling

[elfin cloud]

oh yeah you're right.

[tiny nimbus]

Autocompleting majo for example would mean 625666

[elfin cloud]

yeah. i thought for a second it was just about putting the abc under the numbers. I should go to bed lol

[woeful crescent]

You sure? I think it was shown as just hitting the number once counts as all the letters, so it would be 6256 with the 6 counting as M, N, and O

[tiny nimbus]

It’d depend on the implementation

[maiden shadow]

<@&750150305383186585> bit of a suspicious link

[plain aurora]

Yeah I reported it

Would have been nice to have free credit 😅

[frosty tendon]

wan's gonna be p interesting this week, maybe back to 4hr wanshows?

[restive rain]

was there big news?

besides wwdc

[frosty tendon]

just wwdc, but there's a lot of things linus' been asking for, for a while so I thought he would go into a lot of tangents lol

[tiny nimbus]

Eh, he covered the basics in a main video so I doubt there’ll be much discussion on WAN

[tiny nimbus]

https://www.theverge.com/2024/6/12/24176889/tile-life360-customer-data-breach-hacker-extortion

[drifting creek]

It’s all prep for LTTs new channel. Linus T9 Tips

[tiny nimbus]

https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/google/youtube-tests-harder-to-block-server-side-ad-injection-in-videos/

[limber jewel]

When youtube vanced can skip patreon and sponsor reads it can block this as well

[atomic dock]

and how would you report a 5 sec sponsor segment if you dont know which ad will load and how long it will be?

[limber jewel]

They will find a way

[tiny nimbus]

Yeah, where Sponsorblock is relying on user reports as to where sponsored content appears in a video, and YouTube’s just force-feeding ads of different durations to individual users at random points in the segment playlist there’s a disconnect there

YouTube’s accountants are counting on the engineers to defeat the ad blockers once and for all

[limber jewel]

They wish, the hate for ads runs deep

[tiny nimbus]

You’re preaching to the choir there

[graceful swan]

Engineers: we have built a helmet with eye tracking and little pointy sticks to keep peoples eyes open during ads to prevent closing your eyes during advertisements. We just need the accountants to test it.

[tiny nimbus]

Oh, so that’s why they’re slow porting the YouTube app to visionOS

[keen bloom]

Dam.

[tiny mauve]

pre show is live boys

[olive bronze]

lets goooooooo

[neat kiln]

Why I gotta update windows before wtching lol. wonder what the story is

[merry thistle]

Yeah, tried to Google but the Patch Tuesday notes seemed quite tame and boring

I'm concerned now

[neat kiln]

Well I guess I'm about to find out

[merry thistle]

(even though I don't run Windows 😂 )

[neat kiln]

Wifi takeover attack

huh

[merry thistle]

https://www.forbes.com/sites/daveywinder/2024/06/14/new-wi-fi-takeover-attack-all-windows-users-warned-to-update-now/

👀

[neat kiln]

I can't even update. Maybe it's about time I reset my windows machine

Due to some regedits or group policy changes I made at some point because

I'm in the process of switching to linus for my handheld

Does this require that you connect to wifi for it to work?

I've got a handheld running an old windows 10, but purposefully never goes online

[charred atlas]

Did audio just drop out ?

[leaden oxide]

the chat says yes

[neat kiln]

I wondered what happened there

windows update and all of a sudden scrapyard

[leaden oxide]

mine says its up to date already

[neat kiln]

Ok so it does require actually being connected to the network

[round ermine]

Holy shit Windows

[charred atlas]

One of the many reasons I’m not on w11 yet

[austere crane]

You should look into a windows debloater tool or something similar

[round ermine]

I already got Startallback on cause the win11 start menu is ass

[austere crane]

I configured my search to block all web results and it went from useless to windows 7 quality

[tiny mauve]

#TeamOpen-Shell (though idk if it works on W11)

It brings back a decent search tool along with a decent start menu

[austere crane]

https://github.com/LeDragoX/Win-Debloat-Tools was the solution I found

• this

https://github.com/Raphire/Win11Debloat

[neat kiln]

ask me why I'll never use windows 11.
Though now my work has forced my on it and i hate it. Useless recommendations section in the start bar that won't go away even if I've disabled all the recommendations inside

[tiny mauve]

https://github.com/Open-Shell/Open-Shell-Menu

[neat kiln]

I have been looking at the Xperia 5 V as my next phone

[neat kiln]

I'd rather just not use windows 11.
But that's not an option for me, as it's a work machine

can't really install anything. I found a workaround to to at least lower the power usage of windows, as at the IT set setting, it was a very high performance, which was just unnecessary, and led to this tiny pc being very loud fan wise

this minipc with maybe a single 40mm fan had a 9th gen i7 running with high performance

When we mainly use outlook, teams, and browser

[merry thistle]

Just boot a Linux USB with persistence enabled

[neat kiln]

I still interface with the network and full things from a network hub.
I do still use the onedrive desktop feature while at work, as I might as well since I've got to use windows.
And anything usb plugged in will trip security

[neat kiln]

ok what did linus just leak with that luke face lol

[sleek kayak]

What browser is Linus using? I don't know this icon

[neat kiln]

are you sure that's a browser at all.
It's orange because there's some sort of activity it's done and it hasn't been opened yet

[sleek kayak]

Oh you're right

i'm dumb lol

[neat kiln]

Are they still on windows 10 as well

[sleek kayak]

What even

[frozen agate]

that icon is ShareX, it is not a browser

[sleek kayak]

oh thanks

[frozen agate]

https://getsharex.com/

[graceful swan]

Luke the travel agent lol

[neat kiln]

If a semi needs to stop, a semi needs to stop. what's directly behind it shouldn't matter if it's on the highway

[wicked inlet]

The fact that Tesla has to use lidar to ground truth their vision system is pretty clear evidence of how valuable it is to have. It's why they ordered all those lidar units

[graceful swan]

so the meeting at bethesda about WAN show on monday will be spicy

[zealous spire]

what's with all these linus-sized wan shows recently

[tiny mauve]

today was perfectly understandable, and so would be skipping next week's

but for the rest, maybe they're just trying to go back home at reasonable times

[cursive tiger]

imagine

kde search is a little strange sometimes but not that broken lmao

[zealous spire]

I've watched enough wan shows to know that they aren't filthy casuals

[spice oak]

I think wanshow for next week, should be skipped. Or Linus doesn't attend it. Going through that is hard and work should be the last thing on his mind.

[cursive tiger]

they could do a saturday wan show potentially

although it sounds like it'll be a friday morning one

which i'm sure dan won't mind lol

[graceful swan]

That's great, but maybe Linus can make his own choices? Some people like to work to occupy their mind. you do you, and let others make their own choices

[maiden shadow]

Linus did himself say that he would like to keep the wan show streak alive so we will just have to wait and see

I wouldn't object to a early for them wan show either cause it may be at a more reasonable time for us in europe

[dire salmon]

why no WAN show on FP from yesterday?

[restive rain]

its on yt

[frozen agate]

It probably needed an edit, it'll be there Monday or Tuesday probably

[brittle moon]

Or the transcode failed. That happens occasionally

[vestal breach]

Despite his height, Linus is in fact an adult capable of making his own decisions

[plain aurora]

Tbh having something like wan can help settle before a big event like that. I had my mum past 7 months ago and honestly having something that isn’t related to what’s happening in my personal life can really help with mental health during that time. So I can see an early short wan be both good for him and for us.

A few days after losing her I was at work doing things that were auto pilot so I didn’t have to deal with the whole situation for a few hours

It’s easy from the outside to have all the answers to the things that Linus and others who have lost loved ones should do but it’s best to let them process and do things their own way as long as it’s not toxic to themselves or others.

[spice oak]

Regret is also a powerful thing. Linus might regret doing wanshow during that painful time in his life instead of spending the whole day with family. I just won't pressure someone to do anything when something like this happens.

[plain aurora]

I’m sure he has people around him that know more than we know who can help him make the best decision for him.

We don’t know who, what where as we are just observers, we are not in his inner circles.

[spice oak]

Correct.

[gilded grove]

Is there a funeral? I missed the last few episodes

[graceful swan]

I wish I had a community of people tell me how to live my life

[keen bloom]

Linus speaking of rotation and "updates" . Me im central america with a i7 from 2013 and a gtx980. The monitor died first after 5 years so it got the "update" first.

[elfin cloud]

yeah, linus said: "not my kids, not my wife, but immediate family"

[gilded grove]

Well I hope they find peace and it gets left alone to deal with it in private

[plain aurora]

I kinda do, it’s more “help me navigate this situation team” it’s people I trust to have what’s best for me at heart. But over time you get to learn yourself. It only took 33 years to get this team.

[graceful swan]

sorry I was being sarcastic about having random people on discord tell Linus how to live. Having a community to help you is great, having random people online think they are your best friend is weird

[plain aurora]

Ohhhh sorry hard to read sarcasm via text

[graceful swan]

It is a problem that AI will solve soon enough. 🙂

[plain aurora]

But yeah I would never tell a stranger what to do without me being invited to.

[indigo prairie]

Do we have anything idea what time WAN show will be tomorrow?

[drifting creek]

Parasocial relationship?

[frozen agate]

About 6:30 pm Vancouver time

Based off of lateness

Assuming there is a wan show at all, given the context

[elfin cloud]

pretty sure they said if it's gonna happen it will be their morning

he has the funeral in the afternoon iirc.

[frozen agate]

In that case, probably sometime around 6-8pm UTC if they're doing a morning show

[indigo prairie]

Yes, they said it would be early. Given that WAN show tends to be 2-4 hours long, my guesstimate is around 10 am PST with Linus being in LTT onesie PJ’s and streaming from home. That way he had time to eat and get ready and get the kids fed and ready.

[tiny nimbus]

One of the rare times we get an earlier than usual WAN Show and I’ll be at an even rarer social event

[frozen agate]

Lol, earlier than usual, but I guarantee it'll still be late

[brittle moon]

my guess is 10:30 their time would be the time their aiming for. maybe 11.
but that is mostly just a guess

[indigo prairie]

https://whenwan.show has been updated to say 1:30 pm EST (10:30 am PST)

[frozen agate]

Yup, that would be because the owner of the site suggested that as their guess, right above your message 🙂

[olive bronze]

1:30?

does anyone know why it's so early?

[lean perch]

It's because of a personal trip Linus needs to take. He mentioned it in last week's WAN.

[olive bronze]

I must have missed that. i just knew it was going to be early

is it because he needs to travel after WAN or is he doing WAN remotely?

[plain aurora]

Linus has a funeral for a loved one that has passed away so he didn’t want to break the streak but didn’t want to do it after it.

[olive bronze]

that's sad. i know what that's like.

[brittle moon]

It’s so weird that wan show could only be an hour or two away

[indigo prairie]

Yeah it’s like that one WAN show a few months ago where they also decided to have it early and I missed it ☠️ ☠️ ☠️

[brittle moon]

yeah, this is even earlier than that though

[hazy glade]

I got the wan signal, but it's not on yet, right?

[brittle moon]

correct

[maiden shadow]

WAN is live

[olive bronze]

WAN is never live, they're actually undead

[brittle moon]

preshow is live

[low otter]

wait what

it's so early though

[brittle moon]

yeah

[maiden shadow]

They said it last week yes

Linus has a funeral to attend later today iirc

[brittle moon]

https://fxtwitter.com/LinusTech/status/1803938152526049581

also from last week's show: https://youtu.be/qthqnD65P_0?t=8375

[low otter]

thanks

also sorry to hear about that

[hazy glade]

Dang this is a rough show, I feel for Linus.

[maiden shadow]

I imagine it will be a short one understandably

[hazy glade]

He's so professional, (and hates losing so much) he won't lose the streak

[sleek kayak]

WAN SHOW AT THIS TIME?!

[olive bronze]

Linus is going to a funeral

[sleek kayak]

Oh…

[graceful swan]

lots of people like to work to keep busy so they don't dwell on the negative. plus the weigh of being a boss and employing people and needing to have the show go on for your employees and fans is a big motivator

[olive bronze]

so, the shirt he's wearing was made by his sister, she used to buy shirts at goodwill that had a flaw and she would attach logos to them

[sleek kayak]

I have a work meeting in two hours so I might miss most of it

[maiden shadow]

I don't think it'll be much longer than 2 hours

[olive bronze]

you can watch the rest later after it's posted

[tawdry drum]

Lol, guess I am in this weeks show.

[sleek kayak]

Who told Luke the zoomer memes

LOL

[slate notch]

that was the greatest japanese name pronounciation ive ever heard

[edgy tundra]

WAN SHOW EARLY?!?! WHAT IS THIS TRICKERY?!?!

[lean perch]

Linus has family stuff he needs to do. See the end of the last WAN, posted above, for info.

[sick bronze]

hey y'all

[graceful swan]

Unfortunately this blessing of early WAN is the result of a death in the family.

[edgy tundra]

Awe, that stinks. Feel for Linus.

[maiden shadow]

I do wish wan show was more often at this time, despite the circumstances that have caused it to be early

[graceful swan]

nforce motherboards coming back!

FrameWork + LTT 4060 laptop nVidia doesn't want you to have. would watch the heck out of that video, and the go to Lttstore.com looking to buy one

[woeful crescent]

Wouldn't mind seeing an Arc option for Framework.. never have I been rotting for intel as much as I am now to get them to be a legit 3rd contender in the GPU Market.

[abstract raven]

first time watching/listening live

[obtuse crypt]

Garage sale🤘🏾

[candid juniper]

I'm in agreement with the emotion softening AI thing...as someone who has been on the receiving end of irate for no good reason customers I'm for this.

Also a lot of people who can get away with abuse, anger and vitriol with no consequence to them will do it happily and this might help with the person on the other end.

[woeful crescent]

I'll take new new new new Wonnick 4, best I can do is $50

In my time dealing with customers I'd say tone > words .. if the tone remains calm the situation less less likely to escalate and less stressful to deal with.

[abstract raven]

because it is 8PM

because of the early show

[lean perch]

So, he lost his sister? Eek...

[abstract raven]

no

[maiden shadow]

That sounds like what it is yes, that's really sad, surprised he is doing wan show

[abstract raven]

noooo way

[lean perch]

Me too.

[maiden shadow]

Listen to the previous 5-10 minutes of the show

[abstract raven]

yeah he talks about his trip

and the custom tshirts

[maiden shadow]

And then "that's whose memorial I am going to today" when referencing his sister

[tired topaz]

yea losing a sibling, someone you grew up with and spent your entire childhood with sucks a lot

[abstract raven]

but at this age??

he said "a bit older" i believe

[devout vortex]

I think this is the Video Linus was looking for. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DY283rzWvUc

[woeful crescent]

Wow I missed that comment he made about it being his sisters memorial. I'm surprised he was even on last week or this week.

[lean perch]

I lost my sister to cancer in September. It was rough, even though we weren't close. I can only imagine how bad it is for Linus, since he was much closer to his sister.

[woeful crescent]

I think he had at least 2

One that he did the video with, and a section they mentioned in the video.. maybe more? Can't say I've kept track of his family when its come up.

[lean perch]

Yeah, I don't remember myself.

[terse raft]

He had two sisters. One he was very close with, and one less so for reasons I don't think he ever mentioned.

[lean perch]

Ah

[bronze pilot]

wtf wanshow is over?

[woeful crescent]

Yes, he said it would be early last week cause of a memorial he was attending

[terse raft]

Imagine being surprised about news of something you don't pay attention to.

[woeful crescent]

And said he wouldn't be in the headspace to do it after, which given what we now know, makes 100% sense

If anything I'm shocked he was in the space to do it at all

[bronze pilot]

know what?

[woeful crescent]

But everyone grieves in their own way so I'm not judging

[terse raft]

After he mentioned the trip and everything, I could tell he wasn't feeling well and tried to keep his composure.

[bronze pilot]

oh i scrolled up

[woeful crescent]

It was his sister that died.

[bronze pilot]

yikes

[plain aurora]

Tbh when my mum died a few months ago, I went into work four days later so I could do things on auto, you could tell I was a wreak but I needed to do things not related to the situation to give my brain and emotions a break. I can totally see Linus needing that, hopefully after the funeral he can catch a breath, losing a loved one can be a rollercoaster.

…. Also the designer in me who uses Adobe and has been for more than 10 years… let’s just say I’m now questioning seriously why.

[woeful crescent]

My answer to most Adobe products is generally, there are other ways to do stuff just as good, but Adobe generally has the best package for making it intuitive, and not needlessly complex.. and even when it is, for most things guides from a decade or two ago still apply today. Still a horrible company though..

[plain aurora]

Yeah and the problem I face is the others I work with also use it. So to work with other programs is that it’s hard to share files if you’re not in the ecosystem

But I’m glad that they are being targeted now they need to be investigated for several reasons.

[neat kiln]

Listening a little late. But I love my big capacitor water bottle

[turbid shoal]

WAN happened while I was at work?!?!

what is this world?!?

just realized why. Rest in Peace

[tulip hatch]

Wtf

Why the f have they already gone live smh

it's not even 2 am yet

[woeful crescent]

Read up a bit, then feel like shit for raging

[tulip hatch]

I could never

[woeful crescent]

His sisters funeral is today

[tiny mauve]

Watching the VOD now and I'm so so so disappointed with the one of the sponsors...

Control D is a DNS service? f off.

[safe thistle]

https://linustechtips.com/forum/98-lmg-sponsor-discussion/

[tiny mauve]

It was the perfect name for something like an Omnivore, wallabag, raindrop, pocket, etc.

but nooooo, it had to be a boring ass dns service. great opportunity missed.

[safe thistle]

Also, CtrlD definitely look like a DNS service to me

[tiny mauve]

I can't see it

and with ctrl+d being the default shortcut for bookmarking a page...

https://tenor.com/view/my-disappointment-is-immeasurable-and-gif-20080022

[safe thistle]

Are you sure you're thinking of the correct control d?

https://controld.com/

this is their sponsor

https://docs.bmc.com/docs/productsupport/control-d

this is a different control D, 'coincidentally' also in the cybersec/tech software sphere

[brittle moon]

yes, they were talking about control d, the dns service, which is the sponsor

[tiny mauve]

I'm disappointed that they are a DNS service. It was a non-serious complaint. Not quite a joke, but in that same area. The company's name would be absolutely perfect for something like a bookmark manager, like the services I mentioned here #the-wan-show message.

[safe thistle]

Right, my bad, I misinterpreted

Evidently need to get the fuck to sleep

[tiny mauve]

that's perfectly alright, text sucks, have a good night

[safe thistle]

Fair point though, I guess it's cause D for DNS and Control as in to control, not the button

Maybe we will end up with another product that takes you up on that idea

[safe thistle]

nighty night lmao

[plain aurora]

Must be showing my age. CAD is a web comic for me secondary to the shortcut

[silk swallow]

loved the new time, got to listen to a lot of it during work hours

not all of it, but it filled my gap

[Insert joke]

[tiny mauve]

fwiw, I don't think I've used Ctrl+Alt+Del since Win XP

if I need to open task manager I just use ctrl+shift+esc instead

[spice oak]

I hope Linus will be alright. Losing a sibling must be hard.

[keen bloom]

Oh no, is that what happened? Damn I feel so bad for him. I knew he lost someone close, but not a sibling. 😭

[woeful crescent]

Ya he got asked about his shirt on wanshow, talked about how his sister made it, and at the end mentioned that thats whose memorial he was attending after :/

[brittle moon]

i didnt even know about ctrl+shift+esc until a few months ago

[graceful garnet]

What was the 2d platformer they talked about on WAN show a few weeks ago? It had pixelated graphics

[graceful garnet]

Yes! Thank you so much. I was talking to my brother about it and i could NOT remember what it was called

[brittle moon]

yw 🙂

[drifting creek]

Linus sister died? Was it on wan show? I recall him talking about her about her dating life was so hard in her 30s

Does Linus have multiple sisters?

[brittle moon]

yes

he quickly mentioned it last week and talked about it a bit more this week

[drifting creek]

I’m about Linus age and have family who has cancer. So I can relate

At first I thought it was his sister who had depression

[woeful crescent]

He was aslked about his shirt, went on to talk about how his sister made it, then ended with thats whose memorial he was attending after the show..

[drifting creek]

Just got to that part again. Was half listening to it and sounded like a story untill the context

[neat heath]

at some point in the past year, linus mentioned someone at ltt played one of the recent final fantasy games and got so emotional it made them cry, anyone know which final fantasy it was?

[native kraken]

oh, now that sucks

i only started watching the last wan show now

hope they rest in peace

[plain aurora]

I think it’s 16?

Cause I remember him saying he would be interested in giving that one a go

[tiny nimbus]

“David said he literally cried more playing that game [FF16 on PlayStation] than any other piece of media he’s ever consumed.”(timestamp link)

[neat heath]

Fantastic, thanks! And still not out on pc lol, though potentially soon

[plain aurora]

I should pick up a copy, should have gone down in price by now

Ekk I found this and want it 😝 https://www.mightyape.co.nz/product/final-fantasy-xvi-torgal-plush/36756141

[vapid vortex]

Damn that's a lotta fucking releases for a game.

[neat heath]

You mean how many final fantasies there are?

[vapid vortex]

Yeh

[woeful crescent]

At least they are all generally different.. unlike say COD, of FIFA/NBA/NHL/NFL/etc yearly releases..

[plain aurora]

They are all pretty much independent from each other except for spin offs. Some have some links to other but you can just jump in any one really

Now legend of heroes series’s,… yes I get ya for that one

[vapid vortex]

Eh. I get what you're saying in that you can jump in anywhere in the series, but my OCD quite literally prevents me from doing so. Like whenever I come across something like that, I literally have to go from 1 to 2 to 3, etc lol. (Not the reason I'm not playing FF, I really couldn't care less, I just am not that much of a gamer).

[plain aurora]

Basically it was meant to be a one off but the sales told square at the time, keep going.

[drifting creek]

Last Final Fantasy In”finished” was 8 so they basically doubled lol

Wasn’t even aware of 16 till my friend just started playing it when i visited. Last big one I knew of had noctis. But I appreciate the rougher, older character in the newest one.

Seems both a throwback and modern.

[vapid vortex]

Just thought I would bring up the topic about Anger Management and the company that I cannot remember the name of. I would disagree that all people who are calling, screaming, yelling are dumb. Perhaps in customer service - but I feel like this will be used outside of that and there will always be times where some people will do stuff like this in order to achieve a higher goal.

Actually on second thought no. While on some small cases screaming & yelling will get you somewhere, those are very niche. It's mostly talking with the right person.

Meanwhile usa still debating weather to ban tiktok.... just put but a great firewall. Taller and more elegant, the greatest firewall ever!

[sleek kayak]

you think the wan show will be early again tomorrow

[brittle moon]

probably not

as far as we know, its back to the regularly scheduled late show

[sleek kayak]

Damn okay

[woeful crescent]

That happened last week so Linus could attend his sisters memorial, and he didn't do it late cause he wasn't gonna be in the mental state for that.. so no I would not expect an earlier time.

[keen bloom]

https://youtu.be/Z0DF-MOkotA?si=-jrJKZGPZ_b7ex_u this beef is heating up. And also good guy Rossman brings the truth to apple usual gaslight tactics.

[unique inlet]

WAN show will be lit... who will Linus side with?

[bleak meadow]

Was about to post this

But the point of mkbhd becoming a Propaganda Channel is not on my bucket list, and the evidence supports this. Should MKBHD be trusted?

[woeful crescent]

No one should be trusted. But at the same time, if you tune in to MKBHD for investigative journalism and hard hitting questions, you took a wrong turn. That isn't his channel, its never been his thing, and I don't think its fair to expect or demand that.

I take Rossmann with a grain of salt too.. cause he has a tendency to take a comment or statement made by a company (for example, in that vid, the first topic he addresses, Apple commenting on changes they made to prevent water intrusion and then goes on a tangent about all these unrelated things.. They are all valid complaints, but unrelated to what Apples statement actually was about.. (I'm sure Apple has other statements more broadly made that he could have used to raise the same issues of course).. at the same time sometimes hes spot on, like the next part, where Apple talks about Repairability, and he rightfully rips them a new one..

[rugged panther]

https://store.steampowered.com/gamerecording

this definitelly should be topic for wan show.

[graceful swan]

beyond the news which would be good for gamelinked, what discussion is there for this topic? it's cool just not sure what else there is to say

[rugged panther]

it could extend into linux topic since linus said that linux challenge likely back on the table etc. maybe even showcase on wan show how it works

[graceful swan]

because steam deck can record game footage, you think it will get Luke or Linus to do a linux challenge again? but with a steam deck?

why would they show people on a podcast how screen recording on a steam deck works? what is interesting about that to listen to.

Sorry, I am not sure if I am missing something, or there is some confusion on what the WAN show is.

[lunar nebula]

If I remember correctly, they had floated around the idea before of doing a Steam Deck challenge, but I don't remember exactly why it never happened. I know Linus wants to do Linux challenge when if SteamOS gets released for desktop use.

[sleek kayak]

Is there some stuff going on with MKBHD? I personally enjoy his content. Just let me know if this isn’t the place for it to discus.

[woeful crescent]

Just the video linked above my comments, with Rossmann going off on Apple and him..

[sleek kayak]

Ah ok

[ornate arch]

I always find it amusing when hate comments just start rapidly popping up when someone criticizes someone... like that piling is just insane

all of a sudden you start seeing "I never liked you" or "This is why I unsubscribed 5 years ago" etc
like where were all of these comments before louis' video lol?

not even just this situation in specific, this literally ALWAYS happens

and even if you watch louis' whole video, you would see that people that makes certain comments either did not watch louis' video or take what he says and Runs!

people LOVE a reason and opportunity to hate and pile on

[woeful crescent]

See this is why I stopped reading what you had to say years ago 😉

[olive bronze]

does anyone know if we are on time today?

[woeful crescent]

I've never seen WANShow on time lol

[olive bronze]

well last week it was like six hours early

[woeful crescent]

That was because Linus was going to his sisters memorial, and wasn't gonna be mentally/emotionally there to do the show after

[olive bronze]

"on time" for WAN show means not early

[forest violet]

hello everyone. First time here so maybe a stupid question. can anyone give a estimated time that wan show goes live ?

and is there a pre wan show ? thanking anyone who can answer in advance 🙂

[olive bronze]

generally around 9:30 eastern time, plus or minus

[forest violet]

yep first answer was stupid says 5:30 pacific on top sorry everyone, and thank you dysorderly for answering

firt question

[olive bronze]

the plus is an hour error

[forest violet]

grr not typing english anymore and apologising again

[olive bronze]

last week it was much earlier for personal reasons. it can also change if they are travelling, like for a convention

[forest violet]

first time going to try and see it live and on floatplane always watch later and on youtube

[olive bronze]

glad to have you here

[woeful crescent]

https://whenplane.com/ should give you an idea of when it is supposed to go live, recent trends, and if theres an update it'll generally get posted there too if theres a known delay or ealry start

[forest violet]

thanks Ryoken

[woeful crescent]

Last weeks was super early for the reason I posted a page above, but ya generally 1-2hrs late is expected cause Linus often has big videos he films on Fridays, and lacks time management 😉

[forest violet]

being an old man i am off to play starcraft hopefully it will keep me awake until it starts. thanks again for answering Ryoken and dysorderly .

[bronze pilot]

When are we getting another 4hr wan shoe

[woeful crescent]

When theres a bunch of big topics, and Linus gets distracted telling stories

And neither have some place to be right after.. since Luke has needed to leave at a set time several times the past month or two

Wan show topic?

[left tusk]

was briefly touched on in a merch message last week iirc

[tiny mauve]

WAN used to just mean Waffling At Night, not officially tho.

But that's what the good WAN shows are.

just a load of waffle at night

[ornate arch]

it was actually his sister? I thought that was a rumor?

[woeful crescent]

He was asked on the last WANShow about his shirt, he talked about how his sister made it from thrift shirts, and ended the comment with "Thats whose memorial I'm going too after this" .. if memory serves its about 40-50min before the end of the VOD.

[ornate arch]

oh

shit

damn

[woeful crescent]

He had two sisters, no idea if its the one we saw on LTT before or the other.. In any case I hope he and his family are doing okay. I sure as hell know I wouldn't have been doing some upbeat social stream just before the memory (and I think the friday before was the day it happened, cause I knew he mentioned a loss then too)..

[brittle moon]

I’m In The News Again - WAN Show June 28, 2024.

[woeful crescent]

Twitch is Live

[turbid shoal]

live on FP!

[graceful swan]

plate whats?

mrbeast isnt 35 and cant be president yet

[keen bloom]

Just tuned in. What are we chatting about, boys?

[graceful swan]

jimmy 4 prez

[keen bloom]

Is he running!?

[graceful swan]

lol nope, but the debate was bad and thats how they got here

[keen bloom]

Ah, I see. I don't follow politics in any way shape or form. But that would be hilarious if Jimmy did run. xD

[keen bloom]

Why not? We trust linus. So why not MKHB? But i trust linus media store more than their content. And i trust mkhb content about anything else other than apple.

[woeful crescent]

American Politics is depressing.. so I try and avoid it atm..

[keen bloom]

OH cool this is still the pre-show.

Cool beans.

[keen bloom]

I felt some disconect on this. But apple is just bad. So really all louis said was the stuff he had been repeating. All their BS repair. All their anti consumer stuff.

I just seen someone in FP chat say " Dan for President." This I can agree with.

Either Dan or Bread.

[turbid shoal]

full live

[cursive tiger]

sadly you have to be an us citizen
i would vote daniel besser though

[woeful crescent]

Tay for Prez, MrBeast for VP.

[keen bloom]

President of the World.

Not just the US.

[turbid shoal]

that name lmao

[woeful crescent]

Mobile Game Knockoff

[obtuse wind]

anyone watching on android phone and got issues fp video freeze but sounds keep going 30s after opening live chat?

[keen bloom]

Not at the moment, but let me fire it up on my phone real quick.

How often is it happening for you? seems fine on my phone.

I'm using a Google Pixel 7 Pro though, if you're wondering.

[obtuse wind]

could it be my wifi? it seems to be ok on 4g

makes no sense happened everytime i opened the chat but now on 4g is ok but if the problem is my wifi the video and sound should both buffer xD

works perfectly fine on youtube with wifi on 1080p 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

[kindred bay]

Does Linus look at the Discord when he is doing the Wan-Show or?

[woeful crescent]

Nope, nor does he look at youtube chat, and generally not Twitch.. just FP

[obtuse wind]

no probably just fp chat and other chats

[woeful crescent]

He might check the LMG Corp Discord channels, but not the public ones..

[kindred bay]

Ah

[woeful crescent]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZZiur-Rwk74

[obtuse wind]

i ticked allow app to work in full screen and problem seems solved somehow

[tiny mauve]

lower bitrate though, so it might've been your internet

nvm, saw the last message

[obtuse wind]

on youtube lower bitrate? coz I speedtested my internet works perfectly fine 300mbps, my bet is that my phone is stupid xD its a 4 year old xiaomi redmi note 8 pro even though it was considered quite good when it came out but oh well

[spice oak]

I've seen photographers who will sell you the pictures that are in raw format. But for an absurd amount of money.

They want to make money off of the processing they do on the pictures that they then sell back to you.

It also ensures that no one else can compete with them on that.

Which to me is monopolistic.

[frozen agate]

Not really monopolistic, nothing stops you buying a camera of your own and taking the pictures yourself

[plain aurora]

And there is a huge market of photographers who offer different packages etc for a variety of prices

[spice oak]

if they're the only ones that can modify the picturs after, yes it is. They're preventing competition through copyright law.

[frozen agate]

That, is how copyright law works, yes

Congratulations?

[spice oak]

they shouldn't be able to copyright a picture of you

they are hired only for taking the pictures of you

if they don't do a good job of editing the pictures they took of you

you should be able to get someone else to do the editing of your pictures

[inland lake]

Imagine if you hired a photographer and they held the actual pictures you paid them to take to ransom. Oh wait, we are literally defending that...

[spice oak]

that is a much better way of saying it

[graceful swan]

People don't seem to understand work for hire.

[tiny nimbus]

“A lot of people are asking: no, it wasn’t Bella, who was featured in the video, it was my older sister. She was by far the one that I have been closest to as an adult, and it has blown chunks, um… yes.” (timestamp link)

[vapid vortex]

Bella? That just makes think of the Lestrange lol.

[fallow nova]

What the hell is happening to the wan show? WHERE ARE MY 4 HOUR SHOWS?

[frozen agate]

Blame Dan, his organisation with the context cards is killing their jam and forcing them to conform to these weak, pathetic short shows /s

[spice oak]

In the music industry, work for hire means that whatever work you do, they own the copyright to it, not you.

So I can take that understanding and claim a photographer is a work for hire, and I keep the original raw photos of whatever they take. I can then choose for them to process it or have someone else process it.

It ensures competition.

[graceful swan]

Exactly. When Apple hires someone to take photos of the new iPhone, or a photographer is hired for a film or tv, the contracts will dictate who owns the IP.
It all comes down to the contract, a point Linus made rather clear.

[spice oak]

That should be the norm.

Whoever hires the photographer should retain the copyright and get the original raw photos.

Whether that be a company or an individual

[frozen agate]

If that's how you want it, make sure you negotiate the contract that way

[spice oak]

you ignored that I said that should be the norm

therefore I don't have to negotiate that point

[frozen agate]

Well, get to making it the norm, negotiate

[spice oak]

better response

[jolly oar]

The norm:

Yuck

[spice oak]

uh oh

where on the valve youtube channel?

[drifting creek]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RATHbP1bAhI&t=50s
Also arent they legally different buisnesses? the US 7-11 and 7-11i?

I remember Linusbtalking about Japan a few months back

[spice oak]

yep, I'm seeing more asian and indian snacks in the 7-11's here

[dire shale]

Are there still any plans for this weeks Wan show to be on full battery backup? They mentioned this earlier that they could do it as a proof of concept

[spice oak]

if they do, we'll hear about it in a video soon after or sometime before

[safe river]

I found this part of the show really interesting this week

https://youtube.com/clip/UgkxkNwUcDBO6fV3bC6OdpNXOsHYD162s6zC?si=y4PKdz79Ifk-TxHq

[keen bloom]

Linus getting into the battery game?

[tawny siren]

The livestream stopped thankfully

[tiny nimbus]

Aww the Twitch notif for the Snapdragon X gaming stream hit my phone while in DND mode post-10pm, did anything fun happen in the pre-show?

[woeful crescent]

Linus showed off the strength of the new spout lid..

Also in both preshow, and in the proper live show they showed why they are using an intel laptop not AMD (they couldn't get capture to work on their AMD systems in any reliable way)..

[tiny nimbus]

Explains why last week’s stream attempt was aborted

[spice oak]

yep

[tulip hatch]

How to double downvote already seen WAN shows you get in your autoplay?

They should seperate WAN show from videos, have to unsubscribe to stop getting old news in my autoplay atm.

YouTube should add a filter option, so you can filter away keywords from your autoplay function. Would much approve it.

[tiny nimbus]

Before Google stopped allowing me to turn auto play off I had auto play off, now I just click away to the home page or I just watch through a playlist

https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/hackers-abused-api-to-verify-millions-of-authy-mfa-phone-numbers/

[tulip hatch]

Oh, autoplay is forced now? The more u know!

WAN show would be much better, if they shared their current topic on sceen all the time

RN, if you missed the first 5 seconds about a subject, it's like they just randomly mumble about nothingness for half an hour

(No context if you missed the beginning)

[brittle moon]

i can still have autoplay off... if they force autoplay on that could be another reason to stop watching youtube alltogether

that and the new ui, wtf is going at youtube recently..

sometimes it feels like youtube is wanting to get rid of as many users as possible. With making the site a pain to use, and spamming non-premium users with minutes of unskippable ads...

[brittle moon]

if you watch the vod, they should be timestamped, so youtube will show the topic

[tiny nimbus]

I used to see an “Autoplay on/off” toggle control on the main video page at the top of the video suggestion or playlist sidebar, but that disappeared a few months ago and there’s no equivalent checkbox in my Playback settings in-browser. Oh well 🤷‍♂️

[maiden shadow]

The only place I can find autoplay toggle now is in settings on mobile

[restive rain]

I actually like the new ui…

[brittle moon]

why

It’s like someone said “let’s being all the annoyance of mobile to the desktop!”

[restive rain]

Because I watch in theater mode normally and having everything on the side like that is basically the same as theater mode but I don’t need to scroll to see stuff

Assuming you are talking about the same ui I am

[brittle moon]

Yeah, I think I am. The issue is that it smushes everything

So it’s basically a phone next to the video, and making things more like mobile designs is not the direction things should be going

Everything else about it I don’t mind, the part that makes it usable is the fact that they’re just smushing everything off to the side

[restive rain]

Fair enough

[tiny mauve]

honestly, other than the wan show, I don't even use the yt website (and definitely not the app) to watch youtube nowadays, it's unbearable

I either watch the auto-downloaded video for the channels I know I'll watch regardless of the video, or watch it with freetube.

[long fox]

https://www.gamesindustry.biz/hilmar-petursson-making-ccp-tech-open-source-will-enable-eve-online-to-live-forever

I think the guys should look this up and discuss it on the WAN

this is one "holly mother of god" ....

[keen bloom]

Hell i cant how what.is this.

[woeful crescent]

I already won Eve almost a decade ago, but props to them.. its always been an interesting game, if unforgiving.. and its impressive how long their legs have been for a MMO..

[cursive tiger]

the issue is they go off on so many tangents that dan couldn't keep track of it all

[tulip hatch]

hmm, true true

[woeful crescent]

Its simple, we clone Dan

[tulip hatch]

Maybe there is some magic viewer rate reason for keeping the subjects hidden for the viewers also

[woeful crescent]

6 or 7 of him should be enough

[tulip hatch]

🤷🏻‍♀️

like, if we can see the subjects

we can just google it & know all about it in 5 sec

[woeful crescent]

I think its mostly that they can't keep track of it easily.. Luke and Linus bounce around topics so much, even when answering one question, that you'd end up with a new topic marker every 90-120 seconds..

With loads of doubling back too, where they revisit the actual topic between these side missions

[cursive tiger]

yeah

[woeful crescent]

That combined with Dan only has 2 arms and 2 eyes..

[cursive tiger]

there is the timestamp dude

[woeful crescent]

And even now he gets lost at times with what Linus and Luke are supposed to be doing

On a normal day

On a big launch day he's just totally swamped and out of it

[cursive tiger]

he should just use his legs too then

[tulip hatch]

He's on a pay roll, surely

[cursive tiger]

he gets free floatplane

I was looking for a better clip from an anime that did involve typing with feet but somehow I can't find a gif, which leaves me dissapointed, and with a goal to make one tonight if I remember.

no that's the cccp

[long fox]

not uncommon 😄

[random trout]

Your codec pack? No, our codec pack, comrade.

[brittle moon]

This is why I almost always search things in private tabs lol

[real ice]

Came across a interesting product that might be worth mentioning on the wan show. A sequel if you will to the “analog” Ethernet splitter. A tiny Ethernet switch.

[restive rain]

Bit trigger happy imo

Timestamp guy is probably itching to go patiently waiting 27 mins

[keen bloom]

IS this still the pre-show?

[round ermine]

Put the pre-show on youtube

And I'll never watch on Twitch again

I watch on Twitch until the show is live on Youtube

[keen bloom]

Could always join Floatplane. /wink

[round ermine]

I am a broke college student

So no.

[keen bloom]

Understandable.

[tiny mauve]

same

FP was good but even then I still watched WAN on youtube

being able to pause for as long as I want is great

[olive bronze]

why

oh

does anyone know how to get rid of this discord quest popup? its annoying when i accidentally mouseover it

[tiny mauve]

3 dot menu on discord quest popup > hide this

[olive bronze]

oh thanks

its been bugging me for almost a week

[brittle moon]

preshow today was great

[cinder lark]

god damn

i forgot how much better WAN 1080p looks on floatplane

[keen bloom]

Exactly why I watch it here. Pre-show too.

[drifting creek]

Which wan show was it that Linus first mentioned his sisters death?

[tiny mauve]

2 weeks ago, i believe

if last week's was the funeral one, that is

[olive bronze]

i think the service was 2 weeks ago

[tiny mauve]

then 3 weeks ago

[woeful crescent]

^

[olive bronze]

last week was normal time

[brittle moon]

yeah the early one was 6/21, so this was 6/14

[woeful crescent]

Yep, it was 3 weeks ago he mentioned the death, 2 weeks ago was the funeral, last week was back to regular programming

[drifting creek]

He just brought it up in the show one day, right? Iirc she died of cancer?

Man it’s been that long ago that the pool project

[woeful crescent]

He didn't say what she died of, and on that 3 week ago wanshow he just said death in the family, not wife, kids, parents.

[olive bronze]

at least a year

[woeful crescent]

*don't remember him saying what she died off, he might have mentioned it last week

[olive bronze]

and as i recall he had a lot of trouble with the pool contractor because theres not many pool contractors in his area

[drifting creek]

Man Watercooling is a labor of love

Hopefully he has 100% off site backups for those all

[woeful crescent]

With a watercolled system as jank as Linus, I'd probably want plastic layers between devices on the rack.. or if room an actual plastic water trap with a drain that can be connected to pipes or something, and directed to a drain..

Linus backs up to LTT, which backs up through their normal process.. if memory serves..

Also, a water sensor that can turn everything off, at least at the bottom of the rack (ideally at each layer under each server)

[olive bronze]

i've never built a watercooled system, if i was going to i would want a second person with experience in it

[drifting creek]

I had a stand built for a front loading washing machine and wish I had multiple levels of handing incidental spills and then a whole spill

[woeful crescent]

I've always avoid watercooling, and even AIO's.. cause when it works, it works great, but when it doesn't, things can get expensive fast.

[olive bronze]

i have an air cooler on my CPU and the cooler that came with the gpu

[woeful crescent]

Yep we have that for our warshing machine, and its SOP to do it with machines above the lowest level of a house for people I've meet.

Like basement, who cares.. but main floor, or upper floors.. nope.. gonna have a layer of protection

[drifting creek]

I would have drilled a hole in the stand to a container, and the a coat of paint on the stand to resist water damage

[olive bronze]

my case has room for an AIO at the top if i wanted though

[woeful crescent]

Hell I have a plastic thing under my mini-fridge in my comp room just so if power goes out for a while, or it dies, it doesn't defrost to the point where it leaks out

[drifting creek]

It’s in a garage though so a spill doesn’t do too much damage but more than that like a full drum I can’t channel that water. Funnily enough the water heater adjacent has a pan and a drain that goes all the way outside

[olive bronze]

i mean, it's interesting to look at some of the water cooled systems but man some of this stuff is really expensive

[woeful crescent]

And gets more expensive when a leak takes out your mobo and expensive GPU or something :p

[drifting creek]

Linus “for the most part I don’t pay for hardware”

[olive bronze]

exactly

i mean, if you can afford like $3k for your water cooled system... but also afford losing the entire system

[woeful crescent]

I got a 4080 and I would cry if it died.. not just because I also had a 4070 and upgraded just to be able to Max Cyberpunk cause yolo

[drifting creek]

In Linus case it’s mostly the data and he has access to experts who he can pay to be familiar with his system

[olive bronze]

i know. i think my system is probably worth about $2k if i had to replace

[drifting creek]

Mines would be $1.3 k just in storage

And that’s just gaming

[woeful crescent]

Ya linus has access to experts.. even if it lost data it can call up Wendel or something like he did when the LTT array shit the bed..

[olive bronze]

i've been pricing my 4070ti and they're still listing at like $700 which is what i paid for it 2 years ago

[drifting creek]

Yeah. The normies are going to be all on board with cameras

[woeful crescent]

I did sell my 4070.. but I sat on it too long and nVidia released their updated versions this jan.. so didn't make as much as I could if I sold in nov/dec..

[drifting creek]

Feels like there’s a real generation gap with millennials and Gen Z/ “digital natives” with tech skepticism.

[olive bronze]

i did upgrade my 5600x to a 5700x3d a couple months ago and am very happy with that upgrade

[drifting creek]

Web cameras are probably cheaper as a COTS solution than something to “anonymize” data

[woeful crescent]

I upgraded my whole system last may/june.. then upgraded my GPU (again) in Nov to the 4080.. just cause I wanted to play Cyberpunk on pure max.. not the wisest use in my money, but fuck it, yolo.

2070 Super --> 4070 --> 4080.

[olive bronze]

how much vram does the 2070 super have?

[woeful crescent]

Google says 8GB

Good card, good price, cause I got it literally just before the GPU Shortage and prices went insane..

[tiny mauve]

damn

what a burn

[drifting creek]

Google publicity to hardware vendors at Ces:
“Dude we’re getting Adele!”

[olive bronze]

i saw shiela e in vegas once

[tiny mauve]

Adele's nice, but Alicia Keys's better

[olive bronze]

one of those things that was included with the hotel, i wonder how much they were paying her

[drifting creek]

I was into clubs. Wouldn’t be watching wan show otherwise

“LTT cat hoodie” when discussing the track suit lol

Nico lets go gaming

[woeful crescent]

So who else is flying in for the LTT Yard Sale?

[drifting creek]

Imagine taking a server rack on public transit

Well Linus did like that one Saudi flying car

[tiny mauve]

that sounds like a dumb idea

[woeful crescent]

I mean, I'm not.. but I'm sure someone is :p

Dammit I cut the anime clip I was talking about yesterday to represent Dan.. and its still "pending review" on tenor..

Screw it, imgur to the rescue..

https://i.imgur.com/b3gvPJO.mp4 Dan right now

[misty lynx]

if people want an extremely rough benchmark, this is what amazon charges

[olive bronze]

and thats for how many viewers?

[misty lynx]

900 @ 1080p

[olive bronze]

no wonder they stick to a certain tiime frame

[misty lynx]

it currently estimates a 50% view time too, so 900 people watching half the stream

[olive bronze]

so when they have a sponsor, like secret lab, it offsets this streaming cost?

[woeful crescent]

He should be wanting more people on twitch to save them money :p

[misty lynx]

it wouldn't make sense to have floatplane and then not offer WAN show on it though

[woeful crescent]

Not saying not offer it, just less shitting on Twitch :p (also, nuke Colton and the Twitch Ads)

[olive bronze]

but i think wan show is to get more floatplane users, to watch more of the fp exclusive videos

[misty lynx]

yeah, the show probably drives merch and subscriptions

[olive bronze]

right

they sell a ton of merch and ppl wouldn't buy any near as much without wan show

i dont know if sponsors overpay what they sell in merch on friday, but i bet at the very least its a similar amount

[misty lynx]

also remember that even though the bandwidth sounds expensive 3 people's time going to cost more than that (even just Dan's time outweighs the bandwidth costs)

[olive bronze]

it also makes me wonder how much it costs to stream wan show after its live

[woeful crescent]

They pay Dan in bread.

[drifting creek]

This graphical demands conversation is fascinating. Was playing with models and layers and looked at the reflection of a character I. Their eye, and it was basically their eye reflecting a simplified skybox. In action it looked amazing

Part of the appeal of WAN show is watching Linus age in real time as he looks back at the industry

“I hate that 2011 was longer ago than I think”

Me> oh thats 10 years ago which doesn’t feel too long ago
“But 10 years ago is 10 years ago”
“Also it’s been longer than10 years”

[olive bronze]

direct link gif (i.e. copy+paste file onto discord) still works as preview and is downloadable if that is part of your reasoning for posting to tenor/imgur

also, i miss gfycat

by far the best source for usernames

[woeful crescent]

I went tenor cause its easy to search for in discord based on tags..

[tiny mauve]

and searching gfycat on the internet archive just isn't the same :^/

[olive bronze]

grr i just noticed my router isn't keyed. i was going to buy power strip keys and hang it on my wall with the cable management magnets

[woeful crescent]

And I can't even view the gif itself on tenor yet till it gets approval.. just a tiny thumbnail on my upload page

[woeful crescent]

a drill and some yolo can have you covered 😉

[olive bronze]

well its leased probably the cable company wouldn't be happy if i drilled it

[woeful crescent]

Also you can use the power brick with its straps to hold it..

[olive bronze]

oh thats not a bad idea

wait, could magnets affect a wireless router?

[tiny mauve]

geocities websites >> everything else >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> modern websites

[woeful crescent]

"could" sure.. will they realistically.. no.. like the people asking if putting the MCM on their comp case will cause issues..

[tiny mauve]

never thought dan (enginemode11) would be mentioned on wan show

[woeful crescent]

I miss geocities.. I really miss their old html chat, before they switched to Java.. before they died lol

[olive bronze]

someone on stackexchange says magnets don't affect transmissions

[tiny mauve]

Electricity and magnetism are dark magic so,,, maybe. Impossible to know, really

[olive bronze]

i mean its not that important. the router currently sits on top of my computer and i would prefer that it wasn't

[tiny mauve]

source for dark magic claim: I failed Physics 3 a total 3 times and only managed to pass on the 4th try because it was during the pandemic and the tests were done in collaboration.

[inland lotus]

but knowing how big of a magnet before it starts effecting things is what I would be interested in. might have to crack out my magnets lol sounds like a fun time.

I don't think permanent magnets wouldn't affect much, moving magnets maybe?

[sleek kayak]

I was out for dinner but I'm back. I was watching the part where Linus's PC got soaked. Did he say what happened after? Like is it able to be saved?

[tiny mauve]

do you really want spoilers?

[sleek kayak]

will it be a video?

[tiny mauve]

no

[sleek kayak]

then i dont mind you telling me

[tiny mauve]

||only one pc ended up dying||

||and one of the battery backups, iirc||

[sleek kayak]

oof

[tiny mauve]

||one of the kids computers, that are used in the basement lan thingy, again, iirc||

[sleek kayak]

damn

[tiny mauve]

might be wrong, bad short term memory, but this isn't exactly vital information

[woeful crescent]

Also what happened was a fitting on one of the LAN PC's PSU failed due to corrosion (not found in the other pc's despite using the same part).. and he's working with EK to figure out why.. (since they use EK parts, pre-drama)..

Apple is walking a line.. on the one hand they aren't changing their privicy, and giving up data they have to Russia, but they are removing 3rd party stuff from the store that lets you hide what you're up too.. I mean Apple could have just removed the ability to even connect too/use a VPN on iOS in Russia..

[drifting creek]

I b4 Linus either gets him a house or new underwear

[inland lake]

watching the show on delay as usual, at the wicharge bit... OMG people are insufferable. The hypocrisy is amazing. Wicharge is a scam that has been debunked because a guy with a squeaky voice said its not efficient.. Which means it 100% cannot work ever somehow. Yet we all know wireless charging on phones is real and that is horribly inefficient yet we accept that it works... How?

[random trout]

I mean, technically wireless power at longer ranges than phones sitting on a Qi Charging pad is possible but indeed is far from efficient, and is susceptible from all kinds of interference. In the case of infrared-based far-field wireless power: if you break the beam, the power stops flowing.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_power_transfer#Microwaves_and_lasers
The concept isn't new either - it's been around since at least the early 1900's in various forms. It's still only good in very niche applications, like charging phones or in the bottom of electric toothbrushes.

[plain aurora]

Nothing like finding out that your word was backed up by labs on WAN. I was in the market for a new PSU to replace my aging old one and randomly said that i won't take a Thermaltake because i don't like what i have been hearing, labs be like....

[spice oak]

When Luke mentioned about using his android phone for directions, instead of needing android auto. It reminded me of this article: https://screenrant.com/android-auto-phone-screens-app-nolonger-works-alternative/

So he must now be using Google Assistant Driving Mode.

[abstract raven]

full WAN mode

[random trout]

Or potentially Waze, which may or may not work better depending on how many other Waze users are located in your area. Tis a large reason I use Waze over anything else - there's enough users where I'm located that the user reports in Waze combined with the traffic data from Google (since they've owned Waze for a while now) provide a better experience than Google Maps (for navigation) alone.

[spice oak]

Garage sale today at LTT labs was good. They definitely gonna release some videos with the footage they got.

[keen bloom]

Omg, why have I never thought of doing WAN lighting for my room!? You sir are a genius!

[woeful crescent]

Of course, LTT never misses a chance to film.. if Linus had of not been dealing with so much I'm sure he would have filmed his server getting soaked too.. (can't fault him for not though, especially on that day)

[keen bloom]

Yea, that must have been a terrible day for Linus. Poor buddy. I'm glad he's doing ok though.

[keen bloom]

Can't wait to see!

[abstract raven]

thanks lol😅 it takes a lot of different remotes and software since i don't have a single lighting brand😒

[abstract raven]

it's actually extremely sad, especially at the age, which can't be more than 5 years younger/older than Linus😢

[keen bloom]

That's exactly why I made everything icue compatible (even though I hate the software.) The Govee lights going around my room are even icue compatible through wifi. Can't you use like Armory Crate or another type of software like that to put all your lighting elements into one software? I've never used anything like that before so I'm not sure if it would work or not.

[woeful crescent]

Honestly I don't even thing that matters, any family member that close to you dying is gonna be soul crushing 99% of the time. Him even being on Ten Forward the day of the funeral and week before is more than I would have managed

[keen bloom]

Yea, I'd have no idea what I would do if I lost my sister. Let alone my PC rig on the same day. Fuck. I'd be so lost.

[abstract raven]

me wondering how he even mentally survived himself

[keen bloom]

Me too. I'd be broken for a long, long time. Perhaps forever.

[abstract raven]

i love Govee, only i'm not currently interested in spending money on lighting, even though i do have a Led Strip in mind.

because i mean, i have a fine cheap ledstrip that can do all rgb colours, go pretty low and high brightness, and i use 5 modes at max so the cheap remote is* fine

but my fans have like infinite modes lol

[keen bloom]

Nice! That's how my old lights were. They were technically for use with a car, but I found them for hella cheap and they lasted me a couple of years. Finally died like a week ago. So I wanted to do things right this time. Get a good light strip and what not. 100% worth the price. So when you're ready to make the jump I can vouch for the Govee light strips.

[abstract raven]

nice deal you got there

but all the individual lights were visual on them?

[keen bloom]

On the old lights? Yup they were RGB. I controlled them with an app on my phone. The new lights I can configure though the Govee app on my phone or on my PC using icue. It's pretty nifty.

[abstract raven]

the one i got in mind are 3meter basic Govee light strip with the lights blurred by the thing, so it looks like 1 line

[keen bloom]

Probably not the best photo, but that's how the Govee ones look in my room currently while playing AC6. 😂

[abstract raven]

where the shit are we even talking about in this channel 😂

[keen bloom]

If you were curious.

I have no idea. 🤣

[abstract raven]

yeah mine look like that too, but i'm going to buy one with lights covered

it looks like this stock photo

the cover thing

[keen bloom]

Oh nice! That looks cool! I wasn't a fan of the LED's showing at first. But I've gotten used to it now and don't really mind it. Those covers look sweet though!

[abstract raven]

oh yes, the "Govee Neon LED Strip Light" 3m version is my preferred one. A less expensive alternative to Hue.

[keen bloom]

Oh man, those Phillips HUE lights are ridiculously expensive.

My jaw almost hit the damn floor when I saw the price of those lights. I got the 24 1/2 foot light strip and that only cost me $60. The same length strip of the HUE lights was easily over double that.

[drifting creek]

I want one for the backyard for the spa but Jesus

[tiny nimbus]

Floatplane exclusive 🥲

[tiny nimbus]

Even with everything else going on I bet we'll see a few phone clips from the day edited in. Nothing quite like a server rack mop-up to take your mind off things

[spice oak]

they sold the 45 drive storinator

[wanton token]

Ive been sayint to my friends for a bit, thermaltake more like thermalgive

[gaunt sapphire]

Based on the fact 2 failed, surely they should be called Thermalbreak

[woeful crescent]

Hopefully being publicly called out my LMG will inspire an internal review of their operations.. selling defective products only works till people realize they are defective, then suddenly you're not selling enough to be worth it :p

[plain aurora]

well lets put it this way, it was for sale at my local computer store till a few days ago

and my be quiet one has settled in well, everything looks stable according to hardware info

oh also a lian li psu that failed thermal testing but i ruled that one out because it failed thermal testing

[restive rain]

[tiny nimbus]

I was going to ask “what fresh drama” then I spotted your comment on the subreddit

[plain aurora]

Cooler master was what I had, it’s now on its way to help a friends niece who unlike me her psu is failing. So glad to prevent E waste just for how much longer it can hold out.

Waymo self driving taxi was driving in an oncoming traffic lane due to a construction worker putting up a confusing traffic sign. Anyone with malicious intent can cause traffic accidents now. I can already see regarded tiktoker filming themselves setting up misleading signs as a "prank" and they'll get arrested AFTER they kill someone. Wan show wanna talk about it and raise some awareness?

[woeful crescent]

Drive around with a Wrong Way sign on the back of your car and really fuck em up

[spice oak]

and that just goes to show the level of intelligence that self driving cars have.

[woeful crescent]

Sadly I feel its still not far off from the average driver :p

At least the self driving car isn't texting and watching a hockey game..

[drifting creek]

Soon you can ask your self driving Tesla to generate you funny memes while commuting…. At which point it will overheat and overdraw and careen off the road…. And then show you a funny cat picture.

[limber jewel]

Check out NHRL it has smaller bots, but way looser rules which makes it a lot of fun. A lot of very creative bots.

[pastel vector]

is there a discord for TechLinked?
the youtube news channel

[inland lake]

Heathen! I loved robot wars as a kid but that was only because there was literally zero competition. The robots largely had no weapons, everything was just a shoving match. Even the house bots would get destroyed by a lame battlebot.

[crude sandal]

Why would there be a separate discord for techlinked? It's an lmg channel

[pastel vector]

because TechLinkd is very much good!

[random trout]

Agreed - that's why this entire Discord Guild is for everything related to LMG content. 🙂

[pastel vector]

hi, so there is no specific server? unfortunately i cant find a dedicated channel either here.

[random trout]

Not that I'm aware of. This Discord Guild serves the purpose of tech and everything LMG quite nicely.

[pastel vector]

i see

given that i am not subscribed to linus and have watched at most 2 of his videos, the chatrooms would be just too much for me. so i m gonna have to stick with twitter for now

[tiny nimbus]

personally preferred Matilda, but Sir Killalot was good too tbh

[restive rain]

akshually this is a discord server, guilds are a different thing and limited to 200 members 🤓

[frozen agate]

Akshually, this is a discord guild, according to the documentation for the official API, and Discord's Guilds feature is separate entirely from this concept

GamersNexus also covered it and hinted that they got a source with what it could be https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oAE4NWoyMZk

[warm shadow]

I'm gonna start listening to the wan show, is there any episodes I should start on or should I just watch the latest one?

[spice oak]

just the latest is fine

if they refer to a previous one, then check that one

[warm shadow]

Ty

[spice oak]

it's a combination of the weekly news, internal ltt stuff, possibly a topic from a previous wanshow that needs following up, ltt store new stuff and/or sales, and more recently, hilarious ads for sponsors done by Dennis.

[woeful crescent]

A lot of the interesting parts get uploaded to the LTT Clips youtube channel too..

[spice oak]

oh yeah, that too

[brittle moon]

Yeah I watched lmg clips for a bit before I started fully watching wan show

[frozen agate]

meanwhile those of us who remember the days of Linus' dining table (and the ungodly amount of trolls on old twitter saying horrible stuff on stream)

[tiny mauve]

I only started watching back in 2016 😔

tbf I barely understood spoken english until mid-2015

[brittle moon]

that was only 4 years after they started

[tiny mauve]

also, FREE the MaRKDoWN HeaDeRS, ＠mods!!!!

[graceful swan]

is part of the crew at whatever event others folks are at? (and thus may lead to delays due to technical difficulties)

[woeful crescent]

WANSHow is always late unless something bad is happening.. so I wouldn't worry about it.. generally its late cause Linus films some of the bigger videos on Friday, like Ultimate Upgrades and such..

[tulip hatch]

Where are they anyways

[brittle moon]

i think the only people involved in the running of the actual show are LLD (i could be wrong) so unless one of them is gone (which they wouldnt do) then it wouldnt effect the show lateness

[unborn pendant]

Yeah I think its just a 3 man show

[tulip hatch]

https://tenor.com/view/you-are-late-judge-judy-hurry-its-time-faster-gif-5395101

Ya its a 3 man show.. sometimes Dan has help but thats not common..

[unborn pendant]

I would like to see a Wan show behind the scenes. Wonder if thats ever been done in the [insert number here] years they have been doing this

[brittle moon]

there is a wan set tour on floatplane

[unborn pendant]

Ah man

That sounds sick

[graceful swan]

yeah so linus and luke do travel to events...

[woeful crescent]

They hae shown off the WANShow set on other mainchannel videos

[woeful crescent]

Not often, and when they do the show goes on.. normally just as late as normal

[brittle moon]

54 minutes of (mostly) dan: https://www.floatplane.com/post/B8DWRGuiZh

[unborn pendant]

Might need to subscribe

[turbid shoal]

tis worth it

[brittle moon]

if you like chatting, the people in floatplane chat for wan is way better than the other chats

[woeful crescent]

When I get floatplane first place I'm going is the full Kallmekris experience..

[unborn pendant]

$50 for the year isnt a bad deal at all

Just made an account

Will look into subscribing

[brittle moon]

they might be raising floatplane subs at some point, so consider doing it soonish 😄

[unborn pendant]

How does that work? Are you locked in at that price for the year or do they honor that price forever (assuming u keep the subscription going)

[woeful crescent]

You get locked in as long as you stay subbed

[brittle moon]

they have a grandfathering system, so if you subbed at the old price you keep that price

[woeful crescent]

They have raised prices before

[unborn pendant]

Thats sick

[woeful crescent]

But I think if you let the sub lapse then you're you sub again you are gonna get the new deal not the old one

[unborn pendant]

Feel like that kinda policy is becoming harder to come by

[woeful crescent]

Which is fair

[brittle moon]

i think that you keep it forever, but im not 100% sure on that

[turbid shoal]

bets on WAN start?

[woeful crescent]

I always bet on 2hrs late

[unborn pendant]

has 5 a month always been the price or has it been cheaper? Looking through all the floatplane creators prices are fairly affordable

[turbid shoal]

2hr late is 11min ago

[unborn pendant]

Over under 2 hours late

[woeful crescent]

https://whenplane.com/ says 1hr 11min late

[brittle moon]

it was cheaper forever ago, but its been $5 a month for a while

[unborn pendant]

Thought we were only 1 hour lateish

[brittle moon]

yeah we're only 1h 13m late

[turbid shoal]

I forgot they officvially pushed back the start time lol

[brittle moon]

the start time hasnt changed in years lol

i dont think its ever changed actually

[woeful crescent]

Except that one day where it was scheduled early for reasons

[unborn pendant]

I love watching the old wan recordings

[brittle moon]

yeah other than scheduling it for specific days, normal fridays have always been 4:30 i believe

[unborn pendant]

Crazy to see how similar the show has been over the years

Frick I'm not done with last week's Wan show yet

[woeful crescent]

Increase playback speed

[unborn pendant]

I just finished it today. I rarely catch it live I mainly watch it throughout the work week when it gets slow

[plain aurora]

The creators set their own prices but back in the beginning it was $3 for LMG which some do pay, now $5 ($50 if you do a year) for 1080 and $10 if you want 4k

[coral patio]

I could watch it live but I like to save it to listen through the week

[unborn pendant]

Seems like a great price for the amount of content

[plain aurora]

Yep I enjoy it

[coral patio]

MAX PLAYBACK SPEED

[plain aurora]

Also the discord chat is great made some nice friends there

[unborn pendant]

Also, I love subscription services that give a yearly pay option. Just buy it around christmas or birthday time and forget about the payment for another year

[plain aurora]

Yep I do yearly at random months so they don’t all show up at once 😂

[unborn pendant]

Smart

I have prime student and a couple others on a yearly cycle

Hate subscription model but makes it a bit better to pay a larger amount for a longer period imo

[plain aurora]

Yep same here. I can’t do Spotify because it’s through my phone plan

[coral patio]

I just get only one movie/show streaming subscription at once and that saves me a lot

[plain aurora]

I hate it too but it’s the world we live in now sadly

[unborn pendant]

I do spotify student and I havent been able to figure out a way to pay for it a year at a time

[plain aurora]

My phone plan gives it to me for $7 a month

[unborn pendant]

Thats pretty sweet

[plain aurora]

I do have YouTube music as well but I found that a lot of artists and songs I listen to are not on there

[unborn pendant]

The Spotify Student + Hulu bundle for $5.99 a month is great

I am thinking about switching to Apple Music + Apple TV student bundle but havent pulled the trigger on that yet

[plain aurora]

I can’t get Hulu in nz sadly but some of their shows are on D+

[unborn pendant]

Thats odd

Why is that?

[plain aurora]

Content rights

[unborn pendant]

Ahhhh

Yeah that sucks

D+ has some good content too

[plain aurora]

That it does

[unborn pendant]

Get that through Verizon I am pretty sure

[tiny mauve]

ffs, twitch didn't autostart, missed 14 minutes of preshow.
outrageous

[plain aurora]

I can get neon through my phone plan but you only save $2

[plain aurora]

Love that username

[unborn pendant]

Im still waiting for YT to start

[tiny mauve]

thanks, i found it myself on gfycat
then changed it because of the whole LH (fuck him) moving to Ferrari (💕) back in February

[coral patio]

Cause f twitch

[plain aurora]

Yeah too expensive for what shows they offer

[tulip hatch]

Just watch on Facebook EZ

[coral patio]

Best option

[coral patio]

What's neon

[woeful crescent]

I care Linus.. I CARE.. I need to know about the AI.. and how to keep it away from me :p

[tulip hatch]

is every word on the WAN show scripted?

Like are they reading from a promt all the time?

[olive bronze]

no they come up with topics ahead of time

the actual discussion is off the cuff

and people will ask questions too

the topics are always the current tech news, i think some of the writers suggest them

[woeful crescent]

They have a document with the topics and some information, put in by not just them but others on the team.. so they aren't just winging everything

[woeful crescent]

And its just that simple.

[plain aurora]

Basically a streaming service

[woeful crescent]

And Linus gets another meeting booked with HR

I pitty anyone who just tuned in

[drifting creek]

Just tuned in. What was the opening topic?

[brittle moon]

the headline topic was tesla training their FSD models specifically in influencer routes to make FSD seem better to influencers

[tiny mauve]

I wish they'd publish that somewhere, I'd really like to see that in detail

[woeful crescent]

[woeful crescent]

Now someone ask Linus about painting walls..

[drifting creek]

Linus reviews ladders.

The way luke tilts his bottle in the direction of the laptop makes me cringe.

hes left handed right?

[tiny mauve]

I don't think so

[cedar shard]

come on luke you can do it

[drifting creek]

did he rub it in there. its a textured surface.

aw man he should be using a detergent, not a solvent.

[cedar shard]

true

LOL

[drifting creek]

probably lost some of the inprinting

[cedar shard]

yeah there seems to be some

[drifting creek]

can't wait for the GN crowd to be irritated by this

[cedar shard]

oh no..
