cedar shard

yeah

drifting creek
#

alll about that contact angle.

cedar shard
#

just wipe

#

wipe it off the mat

#

if its not fabric

#

it would not had beee2n lower than 0

#

that was so easy

drifting creek
#

should scoopt it off or blot it out, not try to force it into the towel.

cedar shard
#

the bidet plug

#

the print isnt too bad

drifting creek
#

yeah theres some lifting of the print.

#

more about the technique though

woeful crescent
#

Linus pointing out its flaws.. this is why hes not in marketing..

drifting creek
#

#

probably 69.99? to 89.99?

woeful crescent
#

59.99

drifting creek
#

size though might be 110

cedar shard
#

woeful crescent
#

cedar shard
#

woeful crescent

#

This is a signup sheet

cedar shard
#

wow only 60

#

#

woeful crescent
#

Good price, not gonna get it myself, atm anyway, but if I didn't JUST build a new system a year ago and such it would have been a nice get..

drifting creek
#

hows it compare with the GN matt?

#

I probably build a system or work on one once a year. got a NAS I need to put together.

cedar shard
#

my table isnt big enough

#

my table is 3 feer

drifting creek
#

I used to use a large desk mat, butit dried out after 8 years i think

#

Wearing gloves are important. my hands are fucked now ater using IPA directly on my hands for years.

unborn pendant
#

Wish the mat was almost a cutting board material

#

Or a harder material

olive bronze
#

lot of LMG people in the room tonight

limber acorn
#

This WAN show is pretty decent, but it motivated me to write down some gripes I've had with it lately

cedar shard
limber acorn
cedar shard
#

but its funny

limber acorn
#

It's just such a negative vibe, I feel

drifting creek
#

When/If is Linus going to do "hims" for hair, lol

#

inb4 'well never do a product that is injestable'

limber acorn
#

Mr. Tech Tips bars

drifting creek

All youtubers are constantly under siege by idiots or detractors.

ah i need to buy my mom anew laptop. her last windows laptop had a disk drive SKULL

cedar shard

drifting creek

cedar shard
drifting creek

Ready for middle aged linus?

cedar shard
woeful crescent
#

I just got a new laptop on Wed.. I went to the dentist for emergency dental work, came home, sat down with a frozen jaw, and my existing laptop had peaced out..

cedar shard
#

oooooooh

drifting creek
#

I've been continually putting money into desktops and storage but its time to get a new laptop, or hand this one down.

#

been doing remote desktop for the most part. and I hate that W10 is getting sunsetting

cedar shard
#

W10 is so good too

#

much better than 11

drifting creek
#

Linus doing sponsors on supplements? I thought he didnt want to do anything that was ingested.

cedar shard
#

lol

woeful crescent
#

My new laptop is a mirror of my desktop, at least this time last year lol.. i7-13700, rtx4070 (yes I know the moble versions of both aren't 1:1 their desktop versions.. but still funny)

cedar shard
#

his roast was sponsored by a coffee brand

drifting creek
#

That seasonic prime looks neat, but thats probably what $500?

cedar shard
woeful crescent
cedar shard
#

i didnt

#

i just saw it

woeful crescent
#

The image of it, means you have the most context :p

cedar shard
#

its druing the manscapped read

woeful crescent
#

Oh well then you just answered your own question if you think about it for a few seconds.. that ad + internet being anon..

cedar shard
#

ik

woeful crescent
#

If you don't, then you are too innocent to spoil :p

cedar shard
#

its distrubing

#

i get it

#

im not litereally asking what it is

woeful crescent
#

If you think thats bad you should see the stuff that gets posted about Emily..

#

Every time she shows up they basically need someone full time muting youtube comments

plain aurora
#

I thought we were past that as a society šŸ¤¦ā€ā™€ļø

cedar shard
#

as in anthony?

woeful crescent
#

looks at America .. Nope.. not even close.

cedar shard
#

or seddon

woeful crescent
#

Anthony..

cedar shard
#

yeah

drifting creek
#

"I am going to walk into the sea" Lmao

plain aurora
#

But I do live in nz and it’s not as ā€œloudā€ here

drifting creek
#

Sarah Butt must get so many jokes.

plain aurora
#

As in as far as I can tell the drama around it isn’t that high

woeful crescent
#

Same in Canada, its here, but at least almost anyone here that thinks that is smart enough to know most people will look at them like shit if they voice it.

#

Atleast where I am in Canada..

#

Different regions different attitudes..

plain aurora
plain aurora
#

I do see drama around islanders but I either ignore it or go into war because some of my best friends are well islanders

cedar shard
#

NZ is the size of a peanut so\

plain aurora
#

Some say I am living upside down in fantasy land

woeful crescent
#

NZ has bigger issues anyway, like Orcs

cedar shard
#

and sheep

woeful crescent
#

And stopping the french from sinking ships

plain aurora
#

Yeah I’m glad you guys watched the documentary otherwise known as lord of the rings

sudden rock
#

Im here now too. šŸ™‚

woeful crescent
#

They filmed LOTR in NZ so they didn't need pay for prosthetics and shit, just used locals..

plain aurora
#

Orcs are hard to talk to, still working on figuring out how to get them to clean to me

tiny mauve
cedar shard
#

yeah

woeful crescent
#

Ya shame about NZ not existing in Star Trek

cedar shard
#

or on maps

woeful crescent
#

See, its gone.. we nuked the orcs off the planet

drifting creek
cedar shard
#

šŸ˜†

drifting creek
cedar shard
#

theres 2 linuses?

woeful crescent
#

Owner, and Employee..

olive bronze
#

can linus fire himself?

cedar shard
#

it would have to go through terran

tiny mauve
woeful crescent
#

No, cause he owns LMG but Terran is CEO.. he could fire Terran though and take over as CEO to fire himself..

tiny mauve
#

it's really hot, in fact, because šŸ”„

cedar shard
#

if he changed ownership then he coult

olive bronze
#

what if he fired himself as CVO

cedar shard
#

then he would not be in videos prob unless it was an owner special

drifting creek
#

When can we have an AI linus, so we can have the Holy Trinity.
The Father, the Sun and the Holy ghost
The Owner, the CVO, and the AI Linus.

#

Inb4 Linus kid buys nvidia stock

cedar shard
#

i was gonna use my rewards points for gamepass

#

fvcking microsoft

plain aurora
#

Hmmm anyone want to mention to Linus how much PlayStation plus is 😵

cedar shard
#

yeah

plain aurora
#

I pay $27 a month to play back catalog which I will be canning once I have done the games I want to finish since childhood

olive bronze
#

but even the middle one of playstation includes ubisoft games

woeful crescent
#

Ubisoft? Are they included as punishment?

cedar shard
#

who plays ubisoft?

cedar shard
olive bronze
#

i like the assassins creed games

tiny mauve
#

I tried only one of them, idk which one, and didn't enjoy it

#

I realised later that I just don't care about single player games

woeful crescent
#

I was excited for the new SW game till I saw no steam, then I didn't care..

olive bronze
#

and they're making star wars outlaws

plain aurora
#

I am playing star ocean series and wild arms. The sub is cheaper than purchase mainly because I don’t see them as replay

olive bronze
#

i think it comes down to frequency. for a casual gamer that hardly plays a subscription is of marginal value, but a subscription that includes games such as ubisoft or ea titles saves you a ton of money

#

its like video streaming, subscribing to max and paramount and netflix becomes a lot but you don't really have the hours in the day to watch all the content all the companies offer

tiny mauve
#

instead off subscribing to max and paramount and netflix, I just pirate it and watch it via Jellyfin

olive bronze
#

so, advice time. i have a PS4 i dont play anymore because i am on pc gaming now. Ages ago I owned a XBox360. but theres a game coming up soon that is console only. I was thinking a PS5 on prime day, should I get an Xbox instead?

#

its worth thinking the game pass might be a better value with the pc gaming

plain aurora
#

What games are you wanting to play?

olive bronze
#

I am wanting to play the new college football version of madden that comes out in a couple weeks

#

for some reason its console only

tiny mauve
#

what even is the difference to regular madden?

olive bronze
#

i dont know exactly, its new but uses the madden engine

#

its college teams

#

so i can play as the Buckeyes

#

because i am obsessed that way like an idiot

#

so i'm just wondering if i should consider the xbox instead of the ps5

#

for what its worth i use the ps5 controller on my pc because i like that its smaller

#

so, no xbox fanboys to convince me ?

plain aurora
#

hmm so i am a ps5 girl so....

obtuse wind
#

I sent a support form on FP about my Fp mobile app but I think the problem is solved how can i cancel that so they dont waste their time on it xD

olive bronze
#

i dont think many staff directly reads discord duing wan show

plain aurora
#

i would look at your eco system, what games do you like that you can do on either console etc since you said you like the PS5 controller maybe go that direction

#

I would say ... email FP

cedar shard
plain aurora
#

they won't even directly read the pilot chat

high thistle
#

If you already have a gaming PC get a PS5 because there will be a lot less game overlap

olive bronze
#

well, the only real advantage evinta would be not duplicating because i wouldn't have to pay for PS Plus if I was just doing Game Pass for my PC anyway

plain aurora
#

...anyways also another question is price, what works out cheaper Xbox or PS5 if your just after one game

#

you don't need to have playstation plus, i just do it for the classic catelog so i can play games from my childhood that i never got a chance to play or clock.

olive bronze
#

on the other hand, i would be able to access the PS4 games I already own digitally

high thistle
#

Madden is on Steam just buy it there

plain aurora
#

plus you could get a second hand PS5 now with how old they are

#

mines technically but not technically second hand

olive bronze
#

but madden is nfl they are coming out with a college football version and college football fans are insane

plain aurora
#

brought at a pawn shop new in box for $180 off retail

olive bronze
#

most of the $200 PS5s on ebay are there for parts

#

hmm i havent checked pawn

high thistle
olive bronze
#

yes, i'm insane, buying console for one game... who knows something else may come out on console in the future

high thistle
#

I wouldn't say that

drifting creek
#

Waiting on valve to be hacked eventually

plain aurora
#

tbh i would go in your situation PS5 because a) you like controller and b) you have games on your ps4 side which will switch over

tiny mauve
#

considering how handegg games last so long and have so little play time, I fail to picture in my mind how a game like that could possibly be worth getting a whole new console for it and I'm kinda judging you

but you do you

plain aurora
#

in my case i did buy it for a game lol XD

olive bronze
#

in fact college football fans have been drooling over this since it was announced like two years ago so its annoying to see the official trailers and such with console only release at the bottom

tiny mauve
#

surely it'll go to PC at some point?

olive bronze
#

theres no guarantee of that. EA still has like, some soccer games they still havent crossed over

drifting creek
#

Sports games for me always seemed to me to be the domain of the controller in the 10 foot perspective

olive bronze
#

yeah tbh if i went with xbox i would find myself constantly comparing the controllers

drifting creek
#

I’m planning on getting ps5 games on Pc and considering getting a controller on sale

#

Hopefully on prime day

olive bronze
#

yeah i am hoping there will be a good PS5 deal on prime day

high thistle
#

Go look up the list of PS5 exclusives and see if any of them interest you, like Gran Turismo 7

olive bronze
#

for some reason theres a spiderman 2 bundle right now but its not much of a discount

woeful crescent
#

Only PS game I want on PC is Metal Gear Solid 4.. only Xbox Game I want on PC is Fable 2.

tiny mauve
olive bronze
#

are 16 or 17 prime numbers?

high thistle
tiny mauve
olive bronze
#

well there you go

tiny mauve
#

but 16 isn't

high thistle
olive bronze
#

sorry math isn't my strong suit

tiny mauve
#

if they ran it on the 2 and 3, it'd be fine

olive bronze
#

i've been out of high school since 1985

tiny mauve
#

I'm still in uni

drifting creek
#

Man I hate how Samsung just ditches updates after a few patches

olive bronze
#

i think i literally took like three math classes in college

drifting creek
#

I have a degree in quick maths. Literally don’t need to know anything else because we all use use AI

tiny mauve
#

my degree is marine engineering, it's pretty much just math but useful-ish

plain aurora
#

but yeah i upgraded from PS4 pro (which was my brothers so it was a long term loan) to the PS5 and haven't looked back, FFVII rebirth is beautiful

tiny mauve
#

(-ish because it's engineering, in the end i'll just be working with a friggin' excel sheet)

olive bronze
#

i have a friend who teaches math

#

Why would anyone need to use anything but Google docs when all we were given were Chromebooks and never needed to know what a file directory is /s

olive bronze
#

i bought like, lifetime license to MS Office 2021 and its so freakin buggy every time i would bring up word it would crash

plain aurora
#

ngl, the office 365 + 1tb storage deal x5 for under $20 a month is šŸ”„

tiny mauve
olive bronze
#

i use libre office and its so stable

plain aurora
# tiny mauve nope 🤣

i have excel as well as the whole shibang on this PC but barely use it atm, i moved my budgeting to everydollar

tiny mauve
olive bronze
#

yeah this lifetime license was like $30 on something like mashable and it was the whole thing

tiny mauve
#

damn, that's cheap af

#

like, waaay too cheap

olive bronze
#

i know and then the time i tried to use it, it keeps crashing

tiny mauve
#

suspiciously cheap

olive bronze
#

so frustrating

#

no its real office, its just a few years old

drifting creek
#

Most of my casual experience with spreadsheets is creating tables for myself for playing games

#

And being the ā€œteam accountantā€ lol

plain aurora
#

tbh i don't think i use the new features at all i just open word and do word

olive bronze
#

i prefer the lifetime license things, not the keep paying subscription stuff

drifting creek
#

It drives me nuts when I hear someone punching in 5 values to figure out how to make a 6 way split.
Just use a table.

olive bronze
#

evinta did you previously own a PS4?

plain aurora
#

yes

#

i went ps4 norm, then pro then 5

olive bronze
#

what do you think of the differences

plain aurora
#

i perfer the 5 overall

#

the controller is nicer, you can easily add another drive to the system which i will be doing because 1tb is suddenly not enough and i find the navigation much better

olive bronze
#

oh i have a lot of experience replacing a PS4 drive but of course at the time they didn't do NVME

plain aurora
#

you have 2 NVME spots

#

then again i have the disk edition 820gb

olive bronze
#

i definitely want one with the optical drive, i dont even have a bluray device

plain aurora
#

watched blu rays on it, great experience

olive bronze
#

so thats part of my budget, i want to buy a bluray

plain aurora
#

the only thing is the HDMI level is so high compared to my surround reciever that i had to plug straight into the TV

olive bronze
#

well i dont have a tuner or anything

plain aurora
#

i don't however have the sony TV to unlock "features" but have played FFVII Rebirth and my gosh on my QLED TCL it was beautiful

#

yeah i have a whalfdale surround

#

so everything else is plugged into my ahem sony reciever but the playstation but it runs on the same channel as TV so still get surround sound on the games that work with it

olive bronze
#

my tv has an acceptable audio

plain aurora
#

90% of it was a gift so it was a cheap and welcome addition to my home. If your brother wants to gift you hand me down speakers and all you need to buy is a reciever and a sub, yah not a hard sell

olive bronze
#

hahaha

#

pretty sure i'm more tech savy than most of the rest of my family

#

except for maybe a couple of nephews that are at the beginnings of their careers

plain aurora
#

and he sold me a $400 sub for $100 so yah thats the kind of brother i have

olive bronze
#

cool

plain aurora
#

i'm kinda in the middle, my brother loves building and maintaining PCs while i just deal with them so he does it for me haha

olive bronze
#

my brother tried to fix my toilet today

#

unfortunately he decided he needs to rplace most of the tank innards so he kind a showed me what to do and he'll come back later

#

he used my LTT screwdriver

#

i'm the youngest in my family

#

my chat has frozen

#

apparently i missed the show by 6 minutes lol

It's also available on Spotify

#

I don't think they retain the VODs on Twitch itself

pulsar sierra
#

I listened to Linuth

#

I like all of the free games, but I rarley use my xbox anymore and it's such a waste

so mobile/casual, steam deck & other handhelds that may have gamepass + Nintendo + PlayStation + PC are the gaming market? yikes

Live preshow is only on Twitch and floatplane. And the preshow vod is only on floatplane.

cursive tiger
#

yes

#

that's why i wait for the fp vod

#

and the preshow yesterday was quite entertaining so i'm glad i did

tulip hatch
#

Or it's delayed by 5 seconds or the like, you mean?

brittle moon
#

live preshow is everywhere except youtube

#

only fp gets the preshow vod though

tulip hatch

#

the preshow is just for testing, they usually save the good stuff for the real show anyway

tiny nimbus

#

im watching the wan show vod on youtube (because of the timestamps) and looking at the chat replay, wow youtube chat is horrible

#

theres a guy spamming that linus is paid by the ccp

#

and a ton of other people just complaining about random things

woeful crescent
#

No one actually reads that chat.. its just people shouting into the wind, only their idiocy is recorded for all time.. at least Twitch sometimes gets looked at :p

brittle moon
#

yeah

spice oak
#

yep, twitch chat gets looked at until just one person says something idiotic that Linus doesn't like, and then Linus ignores twitch chat for the rest of the show.

tiny mauve
#

I think he hasn't even opened it recently, at least I don't remember seeing it

woeful crescent
#

He has, normally noping out before pre-show is over..

spice oak
#

I think he does that so that floatplane gets priority

#

since they pay and all

spice oak

youtube gets ignored, facebook gets ignored, twitter gets ignored

well considering the request came from Yvonne, Linus has to take it seriously, since she is 51% owner šŸ™‚

hey i know this was unintentional, but when Linus was talking about how Johnny Knoxville was going to get real breasts as a joke he also mentioned that breast forms exist. then gave an example of a YouTuber that used to wear them. it was shortly confirmed that they are now trans and Linus still referred to them as "He". now im not familiar with this person and there pronouns. but it's safe to assume that they no longer go by "he/him". just for in the future if your not sure what someone's pronouns are just use gender neutral ones.

# abstract raven they _really can't_ break the streak

No Linus even on the day of his sisters funeral I thought they were dedicated before but now…. I can see it now, at the grave site of a host … wan is happening!

But in all seriousness major respect. It’s hard to commit to something like a streak and just keep it going. Others would have long given up by now.

i used to watch on youtube, i dont think it used to be that bad

maybe im just spoiled by fp chat lol

cursive tiger

i used to watch on youtube, then a few weeks after i first subbed to fp watched on youtube again because i missed the first bit of the show and was caught off guard by the chat

#

so i think it's just being spoiled by fp chat

oh we are so spoiled by fp chat

Video on Demand.

#

Basically what the WAN show segments are on Floatplane/YouTube.

abstract raven
#

sorry im really confused. so a VoD is just the stream that has ended and is now available as a video, on yt and other platforms?

ahhh alr

didn't that take place at LTX?

pulling legs, last wan linus joking told luke to make it a piroirty for floatplane

tiny nimbus
#

We never got a figure from Luke as to how much it costs to stream WAN on Floatplane every week

plain aurora
#

... but he has the numbers

brittle moon
#

it varies based on exactly how many people watch the wan show and exactly how long they stream. I guess 1-2k viewers and around 16 hours streamed per month

#

I think that the number luke had was all streams on floatplane combined, so would probably be higher. but yeah

# keen bloom Why is it I never hear companies like Crowdstrike exist. Here chilling with Avas...

They are generally used by large companies, and even if you work there, you don't hear of it unless it's missing from your system. They basically use it for software security checks, so it isn't the equivalent of Avast or Panda (I keep forgetting what the actual antivirus of my former workplace was, but it doesn't even matter). It's running in the background, and the only place it is showing up is the device compatibility check via whatever solution the workplace uses for software center type downloads. The average user is very unlikely to have Crowdstrike installed, it's not very useful for individuals.

#

Because Administrator is the highest level

keen bloom

it probably has kernel + driver + bios combined. to be able to cause bsod

timid ruin
#

Not really, a lot of malformed system file can in fact cause bsod, and the workaround was in fact to delete a system file, that actually doesn't affect Windows usability itself, only Crowdstrike.

#

Crowdstrike does, however, has a limited admin access

round ermine
#

It's a driver

#

The new patch added a new driver file

#

That driver file is causing the BSODs

Oh thanks, it was a .sys extension tho

I'm seeing that it's a driver

Why isn't crowdstrike in contact with Microsoft to see if the driver will work lol

he sure is. I hope that Microsoft changes how drivers are tested from now on so that what CrowdStrike did is no longer allowed.

timid ruin
#

The real question is, does one rare bug (even on this scale) counter the possibility of a system check overlooking a malware, that could possibly do more long-term harm.
Yes, this was a huge issue on a large scale, but it was, after all, fixable, if the IT has gotten to the necessary machines quickly enough at each company.

In comparison, an ex-workplace of mine had a cyber attack a few years back, which has halted production for over a week, and they have dealt with the backlash for months, as sensitive data was leaked and customers were not happy. Ofc this was more of a social engineering issue, where someone clicked the wrong link and their logon data leaked, so Crowdstrike wasn't going to stop this. The point is that should a malware have instead downloaded itself in the guise of an attachment (opened by the same person), and next day CS perhaps would've caught it while booting up, flagging the malware before it touched anything else, and perhaps stopped it from spreading; would it still be worth keeping the process as is?

Also, Windows won't be checking partner software updates on their end. It is not really their responsibility. It is generally the responsibility of the company's local software team to ensure that n updates go out to all PCs that have not been tested, which is why so many Windows system updates go out up to 6 months later in company infrastructures as opposed to personal system updates. CS security updates should be no different, which is why it was curious how it hit every online OS head-on. Unless users are allowed to download Windows driver updates on company devices freely (which is usually not the case), then this one shouldn't have slipped through in such a large scale.

#

CS is obviously at fault in here, but that's the tip of the iceberg. No updates on corporate network levels should ever be able to immediately pass to networked machines before the local IT security team (or whoever tests updates at that place) has had time to see if these updates are safe. Any updates. Whatever software infrastructure someone chooses to use is their responsibility as well as the software provider's.

gentle bear
# timid ruin CS is obviously at fault in here, but that's the tip of the iceberg. No updates ...

That’s not really how it works with EDR, the very nature of needing to block attacks that have just surfaced means it needs to be updated live to a certain degree, not whenever the company IT has the time to review it. Most similar products don’t even allow you to defer updates, so it really can’t be on the IT team. CrowdStrike should have absolutely tested before rolling out, this falls squarely on them

timid ruin
#

"to a certain degree" - yes. Live databases or security patches addressing a known problem - absolutely, roll those out. This was really, neither, just a regular scheduled update (at least by all the description and information seems to be suggesting this). Major updates should always be tested locally or at least second checked locally. Driver updates come through as a Windows update package, which literally can (and usually is) delayed, unlike regular software updates. And CS behaves like a driver (or is a driver, arguable, I'm not 100% on its full infrastructure).
In any case, second checking is always important, regardless who messes up. It will be your problem, even if someone else to blame, which was pretty much my point. But anyway, I digress.

gentle bear
# timid ruin "to a certain degree" - yes. Live databases or security patches addressing a kno...

Yes, it is a driver. But updating it is handled 100% by the EDR’s endpoint software, Windows Update knows nothing about it. Thing is, good luck convincing your EDR provider to completely rewrite the way they handle updates just for you. Your choices are basically use it as is, find another EDR (every large one I’ve seen in the wild operates like this), or roll your own, all of which are pretty much impractical, even at a large corporate IT scale

#

It’s a black box essentially, internal IT basically has no visibility or control on the software side itself

idk if it is a me problem or the chair that i sat on problem

timid ruin
# wanton token all gaming chairs i have sat on feels relatively stiff and not great

I think it's very variable for people regarding what they find comfortable. Cheaper chairs tend to be soft at first but have no good support and get super bad after 6 months or so. Office chairs are generally really thin due to the design and the way they are made, but that I personally don't like other than for typing (and most activities I do don't require me typing, such as work or gaming).
A good quality gaming chair lets me lay back, that's often what I do for meetings or RPG, and my current chair has a very good cushion support.

Then again, I'm actually using a small chair that fits my height/weight, so it's optimal (which is often the issue with gaming chairs, if they aren't exactly set for your body values), as opposed to office chairs, that tend to satisfy a wider range of body types in my experience. They aren't great for very light or very heavy ppl tho.

#

So yeah, I like them, but my partner hates racing chairs and instead he invested in a higher end office chair.

It's nice, but I can't feel the 4x price markup shroog

because if its about the writers i frankly dont even care if its about the devs im mixed because ima be honest ive seen studios gain more devs only to produce slower more buggy updates and games after when prior they were smaller and better company bloat is a huge problem hopefully non competes are banned soon and they get start new studios or something fresh

Last movie I saw in theaters was The Martian.. never been a big fan of theaters.. Expensive tickets, expensive concessions, other people being annoying, and I can't pause it to get a snack and have a bio..

#

Helps that it was something that I never could get into when I young.. with the nearest theater being an hr drive away.. if I lived in a town in walking distance I might have had a different perspective..

Not wearing headphones would likely help Luke with the pain.. or at least keep the cup off the affected ear..

running joke is that youtubers are uh, soliciting minors too damn often, mostly the minecraft youtubers

Oh that. I heard factor and thought it was some sponsor joke idk.
Yeah I know about the gaming youtubers and children issues just wasn't anywhere near the top of my mind

Its really more gaming youtubers in general not just Minecraft youtubers now

That was a short show this week

well last week DBrand helped us make it longer by dying Linus' hair, maybe luke is next...

And Luke has an ear infection.. he probably didn't want to be there longer than needed.

oh heck no, ear infection plus teeth.... owwwww

What was up with the hate on physical media this week? Started building out my Jellyfin years ago for media and recently started picking up music during my goodwill runs. Paying for streaming music is the same argument as streaming video.

# tawdry drum Garbage content.

EH. There's some animators that post shorts that I find genuinely good. It really is based on what you click on for what will be delivered to you. I've discovered new animators, science demonstrations, clips from podcasts that got me into listening it. It's a low friction introduction to new content.

#

Find Stuff I never would've found had I just blocked it

#

There's great shorts content out there. What's being delivered to you is determined by what the algorithm thinks you like based on what other stuff you watch.

tawdry drum
#

Maybe id hate on shorts less if their system was less agressive with trying to push them.

In the future, is there a way to get notified that the wan show will have special lttstore deals like a $9.99 mystery hoodie?

#

I am watching the wan show from last week, 8 days after it was live, i missed the deals lol

tiny nimbus
#

Some deals had very limited stock and went live during the show itself, while I slept šŸ˜‚

#

Even those who caught the show hours after it aired missed out on those flash deals

restive rain
#

lmao the end to the wan show was unhinged LUL

mellow wedge
#

thanks for clarifying it was the lime day deal, i know. my question is for deals in general, all future deals that will drop exclusively on wan show, such as the $10 random hoodie last week - can we get prior notification for it so we watch the wan show live?

#

the only episode he is missing is the one from yesterday. be patient
if it was an employee, it probably wouldnt get done until monday anyway šŸ™‚

It maybe happens twice a year now where they release snap deals during WAN Show - the Friday of Lime Day week in July, and Black Friday in November

Is the WanDB broken for anyone else

Like Gaben said, "Piracy is almost always a service problem and not a pricing problem." If movie/TV shows sold DRM-free downloads of their content, I bet piracy would drop by over half.

It’s just a cool resource and I wanted to check it out again

I’m just glad the site as a concept even exists

And thank you for nobly maintaining it

Haha, it's been rough but I'm hoping to get back to developing it soon

the way they ended this week's wan show was INSANE

luke didn't even geet a chance to say bye, im sad

honestly i just lol'd when luke did that "laughter.... bye wave of hand....."

they should do a reality TV show. big brother sort of thing. but tech/gamer focused. Sony tried it but they did a bad job.

I also want an excuse to travel to Vancouver with my wife and explore the city while also getting screwdriver

My guess is weekend after next which would suck because it conflicts with QuakeCon

It looks like they announced the screwdriver pop up 8 days before the event day.

I wouldn’t be shocked if they announce it the day of the event. Though I imagine they will provide warning

spice oak

they might announce it on wanshow the day before just to keep it for locals only

wanton token
#

they are gonna find a way

It would be dumb to do that, they want some attendance, just not a huge crowd

yes

but people are gonna do it if they really want to

To anyone that hasn't seen it - PolyMatter's put out a horrible pro-Apple video. Almost every single comment on the video is about how biased and terrible it is. I know they said next WAN show will be all positive, but I really hope this scum gets named and shamed...

"scum" is a bit of a hateful thing to say, people are allowed to have opinions, even if they are objectively wrong.

I haven't watched the video yet, but it won't change my opinion on your reaction. Positive vibes for the positive WAN

expecting always good news isn't realistic

Im glad the canada football spying story came up on wan, for anyone whos interested and somehow doesnt know already heres what happened from it: 6 point deduction, the assistant coaches that were directly caught doing it were sent home, head coach is suspended for the rest of the olympics, ex-captain came out saying players didnt know about the spying (thats apparently been going on for ages, including last olympics where the canadian womens team won gold for football, womens world cup qualifiers, and they were planning to do it for the world cup until the employee who was meant to do said spying refused), and now the players all seem (understandably) extremely annoyed about it (they were seen training in their shirts inside out etc). I feel so bad for the players who are now having their achievements, rightfully, questioned because of cheating they weren't even aware of

#

as someone who watches a lot of womens football/soccer its definitely soured the event this year a bit with all of this happening

spice oak
#

Yeah, so sad. I hope they all learned their lesson here. And the lesson isn't don't get caught dingbats.

Wonder what happened to the Precision Screwdriver drop - Linus announced last WAN Show that Monday was the cut-off to be signed up to the notification list for the chance to buy one of the first 100 for $25 instead of $29.99

Happy for you, sad for me 🄲

I was surprised by it, and certainly happy. I just placed my order. I wonder how many people actually signed up for it. I hope they will say durring this weeks WAN.

Sorry man, 100 of them isn’t a lot. I’ve got to guess a few thousand signed up I’d think.

There's a hot topic for tomorrow's show. Fifteen thousand being let go from Intel. Too bad Linus wanted a 100% positive show for this week....

Late, as always

#

Any official word is normally quoted here https://whenplane.com/ .. but its rare they air early anyway..

brittle moon
woeful crescent
#

Indeed, didn't mean to imply it was, just that if there was an offical word, that it usually ends up there (rather than seeking out where they happened to say it)

brittle moon
#

you didnt, just wanted to make sure no misunderstandings happened šŸ™‚

#

but yeah only 2 hours before the scheduled start time, i doubt they would change the time now

woeful crescent
#

Unless its late late.. not overly uncommon to get word "Hey, Linus was out filming XYZ and, well, he's still there.. so.. go grab dinner first.."

#

Then again should be a shot stream.. positive news only.. so might not even hit 20min mark.. including pre-show..

linus: welkom to the wan show. ... thanks for wachting same bad time same bad channel.
luke: bye.
