The EEVBlog guy is waaaaay into bitcoins and gets super defensive when you tell him they're dumb.

Man I miss the time when loving everything didn't have to be politicized, both on the internet and elsewhere. Sometimes I feel like I should have stuck my head in the toilet and flushed about the 2007 time frame, if this is what the future was going to be like. Welcome to the future, where everything is sexist and everything is racist and everything is offensive and everything is bad for you! God drat I hope there is a backlash against this horseshit and at some point there is a generation who is chill and doesn't give a gently caress as a way to rebel against their tightassed parents.

Here’s the AI video and a link to the patreon news item where he says why he deleted it. It’s a dumb video but it’s not political. I guess until he starts talking about how the hypothetical AI should have human rights and that’s hardly a nazi position. https://youtu.be/LzRbzwjoEOg

Hopefully the "selfish fuckface boomer" thing was some sort of genetic fluke, possibly caused by all the nuclear testing going on around their time. My generation would continue to give no fucks, or back into the grey goo they would go, to be molded again!

In all honesty sometimes I wish Trump would get up one morning in a particularly lovely mood and let fly with the nukes. Bring on world war 3 and get it over with already. Humanity is a plague. Just label the launch button on his desk "gently caress You Obama" and that poo poo'll get pressed right quick! Vanagoon has a new favorite as of 23:21 on Sep 29, 2018 |

So I don't work in AI or Machine learning stuff, but I work in an office with people who do, and I remember showing them this video when it came out, and many laughs were had. It feels a bit like someone with some technical knowledge, who's really into science fiction, not understanding what they're talking about. I mean, it could have been worse. I don't mind his videos; he generally talks about things I'm interested in, but his editing is still off and he hasn't gotten much better over the years.

He's like one of my favorite people on Youtube. I always kinda figured he was kinda weird but claiming he could invent advanced AI in 20 years but doesn't because he knows he shouldn't is a pretty crazy way of thinking. It doesn't change my enjoyment of his general video's but it's weird seeing that side of him.

Mendigo posted:And for some reason he's obsessed with Peter Molyneux and will mention him on every single video. It is like someone being online mad at Justin Bieber on 2018, I mean, who cares anymore. Its clearly a running joke/gimmick. LGR has quite a few like Duke Nukem, aged beige plastic, socks and wood grain. Also don't watch Larry, its sometimes interesting in the couple videos I watched but loving up your hearing isn't worth it. I really like how over time LGR dislikes Sim 4 more and more.

Not exactly the latest versions, but they're there and boy, if this isn't a sign of how things have changed in recent years...

It's more a case of him being such a stereotypical dweeb, that of course he would think guns are the shortcut to bring macho. He just grates in every way. His voice, his mannerisms, his overconfidence in his own skills and knowledge, everything. It wouldn't surprise me at all if he was a shithead gamergate tiki torch nazi.

The only thing I don’t watch are the live streams as having assembled my share of computers it isn’t noteworthy for me. When he installs some weird parts doing the driver hoops etc which is edited I do watch.
