Brilliant ad... even as a cleanshaven dude I get tempted... and some cute cats help too.
is it getting old or could it be "adult adhd"
EDITED: we don't have pc zone here the states i do remember pc mahazine or was it pc world and coomputer gaming world along with pcgamer
(as a fellow unshorn individual) I was hoping for a before/after view of the trimmed beard!
But thank the gods this wasn't an ad for Manscaped's other product... Not sure if I could fully deal with that ad... lol
great, now im thinking about Jingles' balls.
finally a man that deserves this comercials , cause he has an amazing beared!
Thanks for the heads up - my ancient ASUS laptop gave up the ghost a month back and so now when I come to replace it I will know not to touch an ASUS with a bargepole. That's what I call community service Jingles so thanks once again. I already knew not to touch any Apple product ever but the news about ASUS is new. That's why it's called news I suppose!
msi asrock and gigabyte are the same
And that's why i spent my money in Lenovo.
@@TomGS I checked these things and still willingly bought Asus over Lenovo or Dell. Asus service is crap compared to those two which are pretty good in that, but I found the Asus product itself has better quality for the same price, so I took the risk. it worked out for me, and I say it is up to preference.
Mine died about 2 months ago and I purchased a new one. Unfortunately, all this happened after I had done so.
@nemlas85 i have been using my Lenovo Legion for about 4 years now. Absolutely rock solid.
I even use it for simracing, with an hdmi to a 32-inch tv.
The only game i had issues running, so far, is starfield. And that's in the big cities.
I once made a cup of tea. A couple of hours later I opened the fridge and wondered why the kettle was sitting on the fridge shelf. Been there Jingles :)
I've done that too 😄 I've also misplaced the remote for the TV... it was in the fridge
Oh man. I'll tear up a room looking for something, and find it in the dumbest places possible because my hands have a mind of their own.
I once put my coffee in the fridge, but by the time I was placing the milk on the shelf, I realised...
"A beard so magnificent it could deflect a 16 inch armor piercing shell" im fuckin dying
It would explain some of those unexpected bounces in WoWS, wouldn't it? 🤔🤨
I’m so glad Steve and his team at GN do this to keep companies on there toes!
P.s Jingles, use post it notes it’s under ya nose then 😅😅😅😅
@TheMightyJingles Thank you ever so much for the Shout Out!!
God save the Grandest Admiral!
On ASUS thing, my experience is quite positive. This is during the Pandemic 2021. My laptop was bought in Viet Nam and brought to France as I moved. Suddenly Ithe screen went completely dark. I have to contact ASUS France, send it to a service centre in the Netherlands with my vietnamese receipt, and get it back, no fuss, two weeks later., screen replaced One thing to note is that I actually had opened the screen to see what is the issue, and ASUS do not void guaranty if you open your laptop to attempt to fix your issue by your self (I've read it somewhere on ASUS website). Of course, I could be very much in the minority here.
Thanks for sharing
😂 Yeah, you weren't in America!
Europe has better laws for right to repair than the US does, though they are not perfect and Apple has not been fully brought to heel yet.
Your anecdote doesn't counteract the documented evidence we have here. Sorry ASUS sucks
@@sfs2040 not as bad as Blizzard!
Sounds like in a month or two, we'll have a Mingles with Jingles episode "The shit I forgot"
😂 Maybe a q&a from Discord!
When your health situation is no longer first point in our weekly mingling (and in fact is not mentioned at all), I take that as assurance that you are feeling fine Jingles. And I am very happy that you do. Have a good week, our mighty gnome! :)
JINGLES ONCE AGAIN PROVIDING A FRIENDLY VOICE TO START OUR WEEK ❤
I thought for sure he was gonna try to trim Akizuki while doing Mingles with Jingles! 😂
Good morning Gnome Overlord. All the best.
Love you, Jingles! Getting old does in fact suck.
Its one of these things where I am glad I live in Germany.
1.
Clicking Accept or Putting a Checkmark in a Box is not enough to Form a Viable Contract. As such this kind of EULA is useless in Germany.
Not to mention that from the Start. EULAs cannot Override the Law. As such even if they are Correctly Agreed upon by being Signed after going through the Contents with a Representative.
If the Contents are in Violation of the Law. They are Automaticly Void.
Albeit I still by Default will Boycot Games which Require this Sort of Permissions regardless for which Purpose.
2.
Germany has a Proper Law on Refunds. As such I never had any Problems with Refunds, Repairs and Replacements on Asus or any other Company for that Purpose.
Which is not Surprising. Because if You Pull this kind of Stunt You usually end up in Court Paying both Sides Legal Cost as well as Possibly additional Fines etc etc.
So in Germany any Bigger Company usually wont even try doing this as they know beforehand that it just ends up being Expensive for them.
Elsewhere has it
Getting a decision like this should send shockwaves into the gaming communities - I'd argue that if anyone was paying attention, you'd see a massive drop in online gaming. I do everything on my laptop - occasional game, budget, development... and somehow I've authorized a gaming company to peruse content? To what extent?
Same under UK law as we haven't formed a separate one for it. Basically if it takes more than one page and uses legalese they're screwed as it's unenforceable, especially if it refers to external documents.
Only in the so called "Land of the Free" can they get away with this sort of shit.
Hey Paul, don't worry about the "CRS" (Can't Remember Shit). Years ago in my late 20's I was in the US Army and working at the Ranger Dept. The instructors had to be in by 0330 during the class on occasion and so I would get up around 0200 to get ready and do the 17 mile drive out in the boonies. Shit, showered and shaved, fully dressed I am walking around the house looking for my truck keys. 10 or so minutes go by and I cannot find my keys which are normally dropped in my patrol cap. I have my smokes and lighter in my right hand. The wife wakes ups after hearing me wandering around and asks what I was doing. I explain I can't find my truck keys. She says "you have your cigarettes and lighter?" and I say "yeah right here" as I take the smokes and lighter from right hand with my left. Lo and Behold, my keys were under the smokes. Yeah, CRS is a thing and it can hit instantly.
I had one of those autopilot moments a few months ago. I was still working 12s, and had to be at work real early, so I'd get up around 3:30. For some reason, I randomly woke up at midnight, and then proceeded to go about my morning routine, getting dressed and all that. It was a solid 5 minutes before it hit me like, "What in the hell am I doing?"
Asus has been losing market share and stories like these ones probably has something to do with that trend. Avoiding them is good advice!
Excellent WoWs video in the background by the way. Yes - postboxes. I once posted the envelope full of business cheques into the postbox that I was supposed to post into the bank's letterbox just down the road, and didn't realise it until I got to the bank's letterbox and realised I had the letter I was supposed to post still in my hand. Friday night it was, and the post office not open of course, so far fewer beers than planned so I could be up and at the post office for when it opened the next day. Yes that was about 30 years ago too.
16:39 common affliction. we used to employ a paper device referred to as a wheelbook: a flip-open memorandum book that fit in your back pocket of your dungarees. write it down. check it later--my marine corps CO father called it his "paper brains". invaluable. surprised the brit navy survived without them. of course, i hail from an ancient USN whose CPOs wore dungarees, and most of them were WW2 vets.
I'm barely into my forties, and I'm having forgetful moments. "Now this is important, do not forget it." Well, I do. Sometimes, five minutes later.
"A beard so magnificent it could deflect a 16" armor piercing shell..." Thanks, Jingles, best beard hedger commercial I've ever seen 😂. Yesterday was horrible, so I only today came to watch this masterpiece - you made my day.
Thanks Jingles
Jingles it is not getting old that does it , it is just you. I am older by far and I don't do half the things you do. But you are right we would not have you any other way. Another thing we have not had any of the "Rita moments" in a good while. keep smile and take care
I always buy my compt4ers from a good local computer shop. I know if I have a problem, they will fix it. Heck, back in the day, I'd build my own computer. But, that is not as cost effective as it used to be. And it was great seeing you and Akizuki at the beginning of the video. Need to see more of that cat :)
When I was 22 I was at a friends bedsit and ended up putting the kettle in the fridge... no drugs or drink involved!
You cracked me up with your promo video thingie 😅🤣😂 And you're right; our kitties are more beautiful than us 😻😻 Cheers and grtzz
I'm pretty sure the local law supercedes EULAs. You can sign you're a paper saying you're now a company slave, it would only void the contract. That precedent is thankfully only affected locally.
Dang dude it is good to see you back and I’m good shape. Keep it going homie!
The posting a magazine whilst walking off with the letter in hand nearly made me spit my coffee up the wall! Don't ever change! 😄
The warranty thing is not rocketing science, they want you to buy new, keeping and fixing one does not make them new sales, which is how the execs get bonuses, sales figures. Two fixing things actually costs them. If you buy new nothing but profit.
This is why I am glad to live in Australia with some of the best consumer protection laws on the planet.
I agree completely, getting old sucks! I just turned 63 this past week on the 20th.
58 here and dodged the colon cancer bullit last week. Yes, something was off. No it wasn't colon cancer.....
they wanted to replace the screen coz apparently the top case and screen are a single part, so to 'fix' the miniscule ding in the plastic edge they need to replace the entire top casing which includes the non-dismountable screen. There were multiple time sensitive automated emails which they told them to ignore, but not before inflicting infuriating frustration. They eventually managed to replace the controller stick module thingy. What an utter rigmarole.
One other thing Gamer's Nexus mentioned, this was not the first time ASUS tried to scam them. They did the exact same thing thing a while ago.
Even 30 year old Jingles forgot to equip the grenades.
At least you can be reasonably sure it's not a cognitive issue. It's just the way you're built, and we love you for it.
Shitting on you for forgetting or missing obvious things is just how we say we love you. It's entertaining to watch you play on self induced hard mode. And having ADHD, I identify with your struggles.
It's the same with Markiplier, his ADHD sometimes make him effectively blind, and seeing him solve puzzles in a convoluted and needlessly difficult way the devs never meant, is just as adorable and fun. So you're in good company.
Don't worry Jingles, 22 here and I, indeed, cannot remember shit. It's a miracle I make it home from work with all my shit most days.
I've been using assorted ASUS products for a long time with varied customer support. Ranging from phenomenal to abysmal. But it's always been resolved in my favor in the end. Most recently, towards the end of my current laptops extended warranty (ASUS A17 TUF from early 2020 it had an issue. Got my RMA ticket, sent it in. After a week I got a bill, which was a problem as this was supposed to under warranty. Some back and forth, it was covered, they fixed it and sent it back. Kind of. It wasn't my laptop. It was the same model, but lacking the stickers I never took off along with a few other things. It wasn't packaged in my box like it should have been. And last, it was missing the screw for the second M2 drive. I never received my box, nor a replacement box, and only got a "Sorry, we can't help you" on that. They did however send me a replacement screw for the M2 drive. Which was shipped priority mail, in a box a bit bigger than a shoe box, filled with air bags, sealed in 2, yes 2, static bags. For a 2 x 3mm screw. Just odd stuff. Will I buy ASUS in the future, I don't know. As tbh, the other options are not really any better imo as we have had issues with many of them.
I have my own ASUS horror story! RMA'd a MB back to them; under warranty, basically got same song and dance! Said the MB was damaged by customer, me, and wanted to charge me 90$ US to fix! I eventually got my states attorney generals office involved with my warranty and receipts! After 3 months I finally got my MB back! I had moved forward and bought a Gigabyte MB in the interim; sold the returned MB on Ebay; fully disclosing that it was a fixed board! This consumer will NEVER own anything ASUS! This happened way back in 2017; so this practice is nothing new!
BILLS NEED PAYIN . Old jingles finally caved to the Manscape Money 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Can u groom Akazuki with it?
Glad to know you're doing well Jingles.
Asus has been around since 1989. I have purchased items from Asus in the 90s and 2000s and must say, I was always pleased with their products. Asus may have changed since then but back in the golden age of computers, I found their electronics to be of high quality, reliable and at a reasonable price.
20 seconds into this and BAM Like button! thumbs up!
hope your doing well Jingles !
You got the Akizuki worship in too. So it was a satisfying Mingles.
Good to know that my Asus laptop I bought 5 years ago is not just getting crappy, but can also count on absolutely zero customer support.
If I wasn't broke after 6 years of student debt I'd have bought a new PC already.
Can you play WoT on it?
As someone who worked in mobile device repair, it's equal parts outrageous and understandable that the repair department (or, much more likely, an underpaid third party contractor) would latch onto any ding on the plastic housing and claim LCD module damage. Most manufacturers design the display assembly in a way that is obnoxious to repair, for example, on Google smartphones, if you want to replace a battery, you will probably need a spare display module because they're extremely fragile and you have to remove them to access the battery. What Asus did was, they all but welded the display to the front half of the outer case, meaning that if any part of the front case was "damaged", hey presto that's the display module, pay us 200 bucks. Valve doesn't even do that, and the displays on the Steam Deck are a pain to access.
The one company other than Fairphone that makes the display module right, ironically, is Apple, at least before Touch ID (that's the main pain point for Apple device repair). They're sturdy so they don't die when you want to replace a battery, and there's no way a repair fraud shop could claim display damage based on a scratched case.
Asus makes some really sweet hardware like that souped up Surface lookalike, but I'm sorry to say that until they change their practices, I'm building with a different manufacturer. I don't want to be held hostage during a warranty repair.
I'll be 42 this year soon, and man do I feel you with the memory stuff. I, coincidentally, have just survived bowel cancer myself, and let me tell you it only gets worse memory wise. You need to look up something called "Chemo Brain". Because I believe you said you were still going to be getting treatments.
Jingles your advertising skills are amazing, I nearly brought the manscaped product and I don’t even have a beard😂
ASUS support is terrible for network equipment too. I had a bad mesh device after just 6 months. I had to sit on a call to document everything, then fill out ALL the information I'd just given me, then pay to SHIP THE DEVICE TO THEM. Then they didn't send the shipping label after MULTIPLE calls. Had to fill out a new RMA. Still don't have the replacement yet. The WIFI backplane is completely dead, and it won't hold a config if it turns off or has the ethernet cable backplane disconnected.
Not sure when I last saw a Giulio Cesare replay on this channel.
" A 16" AP shell off the side " LOLOLOLOL.
Sir So glad that you are well on the rebound, and the sense of humor is even better now than before.
The post office, I remember when that was IT if you did not run a corporation and ran your own shipping.
Many a GI would get a box with words like " Fragile ", " Do not crush ", " Keep dry ", And when that box got there it looked anything other than what the sender had in the minds eye how it would look like when it got there. but the face said more than 100,000 boxes ever could.
Carlin, George Carlin has done a lot on the effects of aging, on aging, about things " In some way attached to aging ", I highly recommend a night of listening to one of
America's best funny men who was warning us THEN about the Here and Now, hope you do not suffer a hernia, LOL.
Thanks for the warning, I've cancelled my order
The week starts now.
My only experience with ASUS returns was 6-7 years ago. It was a minor issue with the laptop fan. I sent it back, they fixed it and I just had to pay for shipping. Sad to hear that things have apparently gone to shit at ASUS since then.
Never change, Jingels :)
I recently had a similar story happen with an Invicta watch I own. Bought it at a mall for 85 bucks. The winding pin came loose and the watch had to be opened back up to replace the small metal piece that holds it in. Repair bill? $235. I told them to keep the damn thing, ill just go to an outlet and buy their newest watch i liked for $100 dollars instead. After refusing their offers for a month, the finally cut the crap and I got the watch back for around $70. I liked it a lot so I was content at that point. But yah, repairing shit is less and less viable these days.
Jingles asking what has the world come to? Basically thats what you get when shits not regulated. The worst warranty policy Ive seen in germany was the seller asking me to tell him whats wrong before sending it back and then taking it back to repair anyway.
I like jingle's little spice rack
Without going into details, good call on the wet wipes
I do the same thing with my Alexa To-Do-List, it has things on there for years at a time before I remember I have a To-Do-List. #54andproud
The last Asus device I had was a gaming laptop from around 6 years ago, think it had a 970m chip (before mobile GPUs were scrapped). Anyhoo, one Friday evening I shut down as usual but the next day the device refused to turn on. Being a time served techy I stripped it down to trace the fault & the APM chip had failed so all power was blocked to the main board. I just went into town & bought an Acer Nitro off the shelf & never bought Asus again as further investigation showed that this was a known manufacturing fault on the model I had & it should have been recalled long before the warranty expired. I still have that Nitro 5 & it continues to run although the 1050 is sorely dated, currently have a Nitro 17 with a 4060.
Jesus Christ - someone tell the guy in this video that the "shift" key will take him into and out of zoom. The damn slow ass scroll in was fucking insane!!
You're looking well squire. Much better than myself (though I'm some five years or so your junior) but in mitigation I am recovering from a minor heart attack two weeks ago.
Don't worry Jingles. I suffer from C.R.S and T.M.L
CANT
REMEMBER
S..T
and
TOTAL
MEMORY
LOSS.
Also while watching the game play. I happened to notice that the main range finder rotated with the main guns. I wasn't expecting to see that in the game
It's the long suffering shrug of the cat owner that got me lol.
It's worth pointing out that asus, dell, msi etc, don't repair or rma anything locally themselves. A 3rd party company will do it. The repair or customer service is only as good as they are. Which is why the reports vary wildly between area's and country's. It's not a case of one rule fits all. Just something to think about.
Apparently ASUS is now AFSUS, which is Persian for "ALAS".
As a sidenote, when repeated, this word is used as a euphemism in song and poetry - "Alas, alas" referring to all those who did not survive what the Chinese would call interesting times in history. ASUS haven't quite gone that far, but they definitely seem to deserve a single AFSUS. Or: add an F to pay your respects to common decency and the absence of maffia practices.
I don't know how you make me feel better about myself, when I am quite certain that you are functioning at a higher level than me. Oh well I am at least older than you.
Nicest Promo ever.
I promise to watch your ads if Akizuki is in them.
I bet you 10 bucks after the video uploaded to youtube he remembered what he was going to talk about.
your great like polished crap, we love you, don't change 👍
I had an ASUS motherboard that glitched. The error said that it was power related, not being connected to a UPS. But it WAS connected to a UPS the entire time, and they wouldn't honor the warranty. I haven't bought anything ASUS since then.
I have my moments too, but i am 4 months of seventy.
Thanks for doing the Manscaped sponsorship Jingles.
For some reason I thought their products were for trimming "below the waterline", if you get my drift... 😳
I believe it started out just selling careening accessories.
I've seen those episodes of Gamer Nexus. My 14+ year old PC has a ASUS P9X79 Pro and a GTX1070. If I ever choose to upgrade, ASUS isn't on the list anymore.
How to ruin your reputation and company all for the easy sin of unadulturated greed 101.
Jingles, you're like a good Whiskey. You just get better with age.
What's worse about the Asus situation is that people speculate (and I am inclined to believe them) that this whole repair quotation fiasco happened because Asus sold their ROG Ally below the cost of the materials just to try and get a foothold in the handheld PC market. It ended up going swimmingly for everyone involved, as we can see.
I bought an Asus last year! D'Oh!
Jingles, didn't that fiasco with magazine happen a few years ago when you were in London with Rita at comiccon or something like that? I remember you talking about that in one of the MWJ episodes
How funny, I was just thinking about the manscaped stuff yesterday 😂 is that a sign?
That is an unbelievably anti-consumer call by the jury. Having access to a machine's physical specs, yeah, I can kind of see a reasonable justification for that to be part of a EULA to help troubleshoot hardware compatibility issues - but demanding access to scan the _FILES_ on someone's machine whenever they want? Because they assume you've probably done something they don't like, and they want to go looking for evidence of it?
Yeah, no, that's a blackmailer's dream come true. If game companies want that kind of access, that's search-warrant territory.
I sincerely hope the cheat company can appeal this bullshit, because that's a horrifying decision. I'm kind of baffled that the judge allowed Bungie to even make the argument that "we can prove he violated the contract based on stuff we found when we broke into his house" in the first place.
Jingles, really glad that you are on the up now. I have been wanting to ask for ages if you would ever consider going back to war thunder? I found your channel through war thunder doing a talk on the history behind the aircraft. I would really like to see some more videos on that if you need some filler content.
I've been buying ASUS laptops for almost 10 years now. I did have some issues with them regarding their hard disks getting faulty within a short period of time on my last ASUS laptop(the hard disk got faulty barely after 3 months and I had to change it twice within a year). However, I've had no issues with their service thus far. They've been courteous and efficient. ASUS Singapore knows what they're doing.
I always watch jingles during my lunch, you kinda scared me when u started to talk about te sponsor. Bread in mouth thinking " oh god, here comes the curly whites "
This reminds me of the time I bought a pre-built PC and it didn't come with the graphics card specified. After getting through to customer support, the PC company said they'd send a replacement only after I had returned the incorrect graphics card. While a bitted pissed off that I would have to sort out their error myself, I obliged and while a few days later than expected, the replacement arrived. However, the box it arrived in contained another graphics card and a power supply which I thought initially they may have included as a good will gesture. I was wrong.
They later called me to explain that they had included these in error and I would have to send them back to them. Being off caught by this, I agreed. Luckily, upon reflection, I sent a very angry email essentially telling them to get stuffed if they thought I was going to have to solve their mistake yet again for them. A couple days later, they agreed and proceeded to organise the return themselves, to fix yet another mistake they made.
Moral of the story, don't take shit and go out of your way to fix the mistakes of incompetent companies.
I am from Taiwan, and i cant even remember when is last time i bought something from Asus .. so yeah..
❤❤ U old man :P
I see Comrade Dyatlov has gotten a job as ASUS.
Perfect sponsor for someone who just had a procedure that probably involved getting your cheeks shaved.
That lawsuit ONLY counts in the USA (most likely also the UK now - having fun with Brexit?), that shit wont fly in the EU.
Good morning Mister Cancer Free!!!
*edit*
Oohh, your promo is Manscape? I need a new beard trimmer, too, and they're uhh.... *other* trimmer is absolutely amazing. Cleanest trimmer I've ever used by a massive margin.
Ah Jingles cut yourself some slack, surgery (or the drugs related to it) does a number on your brain for a while. I had surgery a while back and now get up to grab a drink (my pc is next to my kitchen) and sat back down with a different shirt on - without a drink. Brain still loading,
I watched that Nexus video, it was good. And then another from Jayz 2 Cents on the MB damaging Intel's processors
make a text file with the reminder to read the other textfile.
I returned my gaming laptop to asus repair centre i think it was the one in scotland. The problem was that the device had basically just hard locked itself because i never really shut it down and that caused the whole device just to freeze up. Anyway the repair centre blamed this on a motherboard glitch and were going to charge 1250 quid for a new motherboard is 500 quid more than i payed for the laptop in the first place. The funny thing is i got it back and it turned back on straight away. Rest assured i do now shut it dowm properly.
Memorial day in US
Instant like cos of the beard ad.
Jingles, you're just exploring the experiences of getting old, ya whippersnapper.
Crap,i have gaming Asus laptop,Asus motherboard,Asus keyboard.....praying now,that they last some more years to come :)
no weekly medical update? or was that the piece that you forgot?
While ASUS did do some shady stuff, cost of labor is really insane, my car had its passenger side rear light not working, I took it in and in 30 or so minutes it was fixed, part cost me 2€, work 38€
I see, so Jingles is a fellow Gamers Nexus enjoyed. )
