Definitely nice for chill background noise stuff, but his WoW videos grated one me after a point.

There is a Yu-Gi-Oh guy I follow (MBT), who does Shorts on occasion, and I like his thing, he finishes the runtime with a sentence that argues into the first sentence of it, so it loops pretty seamlessly. I'm still not going to watch all of it twice, but it's neat

trilobite terror posted:are they on the youtubes? They can be. It's all Greek so the audience is already limited, but it shouldn't be too hard to just upload them. Half the reason I wanted to save them was to make sure they aren't lost, since we recently sold off the magazines and the tapes were pack-in for a year and a half.

Shipon posted:I think there is something to be said about him not picking more recent and popular games. Who the hell is playing Tomb Raider? Cyberpunk is a more relevant game especially given only a few months ago the game was overhauled with new DLC and everything. Always thought the idea was to test with a known factor, rather than something fresh and still getting updates that could affect performance.

Former Human posted:I'm nervous that once I build a new $2000 PC I will just end up loading a Doom 2 source port with going down dot wad again. Some of the games I've played the most in my 2021 new PC have been Melvor Idle, Marvel Snap, Cookie Clicker, and Vampire Survivors

evobatman posted:One of the most hilarious things I've seen is turning on smoothing on Star Wars ep IV on my TV, and watching it go from cinematic masterpiece into a Doctor Who VHS. I want to try that with something like Seven Samurai, now that you mention it. Also, if your copy of Star Wars includes multiple languages/subtitles, I tried a short bit of it some years ago with subtitles only and just the soundtrack, and it worked very well.

Randalor posted:When Wendy's poo poo-talked the competition and roasted people who (literally) asked for it, those were funny. This is just racist "Your name sounds rude" comments. There's no joke here, no playful jab. Yeah, this. I had no issue with Dbrand taking the piss out of Linus or just good-natured ribbing. Hell, I can see the joke in literally mailing someone poop ("Send me poo poo" "Ok, shipping you an order of poo poo"). This is just "Lol foreign man name", it's nothing but racism. At least when MJF did it to Takeshita in AEW it was kind of mocking the internet racists, but it wasn't a good one then either.

SpartanIvy posted:Our central printer system is setup so that after queuing up a print job, you walk over to the printer you want, swipe your bade, and then it either prints everything under your ID or lets you select which job(s) to print if it has a touch screen on the printer. Pretty nice way to save paper, make sure things don't get forgotten on the printer, and avoid assholes throwing away your stuff. Ours works the same (with a PIN option as well, if you don't have your badge set up), it lets you pick what to print, since all the printers I've noticed have a screen. Also does scanning to email, but on Macs you have to set up each printer manually, no centralized one. There probably is a program for it, we just haven't used it yet.

Cyrano4747 posted:A few? If anything it feels like they're all on Switch. That mental line is perfectly fair for a specific distinction, but it depends on what number you're looking for. Are you looking for "people who identify as gamers and whose primary platform is pc", or are you looking for "people who primarily play games on pc"? My dad has multiple thousand hours logged in Steam. He exclusively plays workshop levels in Picross Touch, but he probably does more of that in a week than I've played any individual game all April. Yet between the two of us, I'm the one calling myself a pc gamer, and he's a pensioner with a woodworking hobby.

Cyrano4747 posted:Frankly I kind of like his talking head bits. If i just want to roll around in chart gore the website is good for that and at the end of the day all I really care about is a run-down of whatever the latest video card du jour is. That's how I watch GN too, when I do. Talking head bits for an explanation, skim/skip the charts, but when I was shopping for a GPU, I was going through it all to hear what he had to say about the results.

Branch Nvidian posted:I hope GN never devolves into algorithm chasing clickbait sponsored content slop. When I click on a GN video I know exactly what I'm getting myself into and it's why I'm there. I want them to do an April Fool's video like that. Thumbnail of Steve doing the mouth open eyes bulging look, sponsored by some junk, and the rest of the video is an actual GN video of whatever the clickbait title is. "Is NVidia DYING?" and it's analysis of their Q1 financial report with the conclusion "no"

My default behaviour is opening stuff in private browsing. If I want something to count, or add it to watch later, open it logged in. Keeps my algorithm tolerable

Cyrano4747 posted:My two cents is that there's nothing inherently wrong with current phone design, the problem lies in a business model that depends on you buying a new one every year and marketing that encourages everyone to do just that. If you go ~5 years between phones all lot of that stuff comes in handy, and by the time you're junking it it probably would have been slow and feature-poor enough that you would have been ditching a brick of a phone with swappable batteries, user-serviceable screens, etc. Besides the obvious culprit (capitalism), isn't that the use case already? Most people I know don't replace just to be on latest and greatest every year, but rather every 3 or so, say 3-5 depending on budget and averages. And for the people that want to replace stuff, they can spend the extra on Fairphone or a similar option. Obv, we're not the typical consumers, but I was on a Galaxy S4 in 2012, upgraded around 2018 to a Xiaomi Redmi Note 5, and then within the last couple of years to a Galaxy A53. It's always been due to the device starting to fade (battery, specs, etc), rather than needing the latest. Sure, I wouldn't kick a fancy new flagship if I was offered one, but it's just not worth the difference at this time, and that's a sentiment I've heard around a lot, most "scheduled" replacements seem to be from carriers/work, rather than "well the iPhone 16 is out, better upgrade from the 15!" Not that those folks don't exist, but I don't think they represent the majority of consumers. And a lot turn their phone in for replacement which cuts down on waste, since they often get refurbished and sold again, rather than a new one.
