Feedback on the more structured approach: I like that you are scrambling less for what to do next. It's nice that you already know what to do next and don't have to constantly negotiate. It feels less stressful. But I am a bit worried about too much structure destroying the casualness of the conversation. I very much love that you sometimes go off-script if it seems appropriate for the topic or the situation. For example picking up an earlier topic again spontaneously if you see a good comment that can add to a conversation. Keep it a genuine conversation and make sure it doesn't become scripted.
Also the rapid fire merch messages felt kinda boring for the average listener. I'd rather listen to them dive further into more interesting messages/topics
This. It feels bad at times when they struggle to figure what to do next, and sometimes I wish they didn't run out of time and either rush or completely skip a topic, but that's pretty rare, or at least I rarely notice it went that way. Usually I'm fully engaged in whatever they choose to do and yeah I simply enjoy them fully discussing a topic to their heart's content. Like you said the more snappy topic switch is nice, but I don't want them to cut some segments short because of that.
Too be clear, I have been loving the approx 4hr WAN shows. I don't want the "more structured" show too lead to shorter episodes. I enjoy waking up early Saturday, drinking coffee and chilling in the recliner with WAN
Same, I enjoy having something _truly_ long format that I can listen to literally throughout the week, if I didn't already finish it early. 3h35 is still plenty long compared to many 1h shows I've seen through the years, but I don't want them to feel like they need to cut it short either. If they're tired and need to stop, sure. For us though? For me making them shorter is *not* better 🤷♂️
As someone who works overnight security, I am constantly convinced people who make games have literally never used a half decent flashlight. Linus calling it out is hilarious.
Imagine the whining you'd get if a game had realistic flashlights. Or realistic guns. Or realistic ammo. Fuck it - people whine about realistic drownings not looking dramatic enough in tv shows and movies.
At the same time, I don't think you guys have developed games? Games designers put gameplay cheats into games because games are meant to be played, not lived. Look up some things like Coyote timing or corner collider thresholds. Even sim games have some forms of gameplay cheating to get around the physics and timing of computers v.s. people.
@@ytfeelslikenorthkorea It has less to do with the devs never having done those things (many have) and more with the players not doing those things while playing. Games require more than just suspension of disbelief, they require elements which actively help you suspend your disbelief, as well as elements which help you understand everything that's happening. Since the player is doing things by essentially pressing buttons, they don't have a good feedback for the physicality and when something happens without sufficient feedback, it actually creates disbelief. A game therefore cannot afford to have certain elements because rather than feeling realistic, they'd simply be frustrating. For similar reasons, reload animations and other actions need to be exaggerated in order to provide strong visual feedback. And when it comes to flashlights, it's important to keep in mind that they are a gameplay element and as such need to be balanced to make sense in the context of the game.
@@zappy7393 Trying to get a box to look 3D with maths, that's a start. Now give me 100% realistic physics and you're using frickin Python and you're 5 months into it :) I have a sprite, I can move it left and right. Lol.
The Gary Bowser problem really boils down to this - if a company had been hit with a fine of that size (proportionally), it could simply declare bankruptcy and everyone involved would just walk away and start elsewhere (except the employees, of course - they are always fucked in these things). And it's not like you can jail a company either. As long as companies are treated substantially better than actual people, society will not be just.
To expand - in 2020 the median after-tax income of Canadian households was CA$73,000. With a $14 million fine, Bowser was hit with a judgement that was 191x the median household income. Seagate was hit with a fine that was twice their profit on the sale, and 18% of their net income for 2022. If Bowser had been with a similar scale judgement, it would have been less than $14,000. Less than 0.1% of what he was actually hit with. Now, these are two different countries, however, it is extremely telling that when a person breaks the law and wrongs a company for profit they are punished 1,000 times as hard as when a company wrongs a country for profit.
It's no secret that companies are heavily favored over private persons, as you said the consequences are laughable for companies. Meanwhile judges are completely fine "making an example" out of random people despite it being proven to have little to no effect on preventing further issues in the future.
On the other hand, team Xecuter knowingly and willingly monetized piracy and should've known this would've gotten back to them to bite them in the ass. The amount might be insane for a single individual, but it's not like he couldn't have known this would happen.
@@Stealth86651I think it's reasonable to expect your punishment to fit your crime. And I don't think anyone would think something pretty close to debt slavery would be a reasonableness punishment
@@xorinzor That's mostly beside the point. The problem is not that there was a punishment dealt for committing a crime. The problem is that the punishment is not commensurate with the crime and is outlandishly severe. If someone steals, obviously they knew it was wrong, but they shouldnt get their hand cut off for it like they used to back in the day.
Adding structure is important if you actually want to get through the topics, but too much structure may take away from the type of show this is. A lot of us are used to the free-flowing vibe. If you can keep that energy while talking about tech topics, shoehorn the merch messages in somewhere in the middle and leave the rest for after dark (rather than having two merch messages, segments and the after dark at the end), and do sponsors still; I think you have a pretty good show on your hands
I’m torn about it being more structured, I think it’s much more sustainable for the two of you but I was really loving the loose and conversational long form we were getting. So I’m overall fine with either but if it was fully up to my preference I like the long and loose style more.
Definitely would say I significantly prefer a looser flow. A “boxed in” vibe messes with part of what WAN is to me. The tangents and back and forth-ness always brings so much neat information and perspective to the table. I get the structure though, and not just looking for where to go all the time is probably a good thing.
As someone who until recently was working on Embedded C myself, for device drivers on Numerical Relays, I've shifted to Linux Device Drivers and I'd suggest getting an online portfolio and LinkedIn was the way I got the new job. It's not too hard to flip over or start over.
When speaking about the size of fines for companies the size is really important because it is so rare for the people in charge to get prison sentences. If the only penalty is a fine, then it becomes "cost of doing business" and in that case the fine must be larger than the profit. This person got both prison and a fine bigger than the profit, which is why it is feels so cruel and unusual.
I am actually very confused about it in general. I guess that's the difference between law systems in different countries? But in many many countries the judge would absolutely not fly with this at all for the same reason Linus already mentioned. Similar cases even have happened in the past. In most of these cases the person is just being declared bankrupt. (which btw also sucks). The only case were this wouldn't be possible, is when there are highly illegal activities involved. These kinda cases are usually just a few years jail time.
The whole case doesn't make sense at all. It really seems that Nintendo just bought the judge and declared Bowser the Example to all modders/pirates out there. Having a 14.5 mi fine attached to a single person that wasn't even the head of the pirate team and still send him to prison doesn't make a single ounce of sense when talking about Crime and Punishment. If it was the 14.5 Mi sentence or a prison sentence (since he can't pay) it would make sense, even if it's still a cruelt punishment.
Hey, he did get tried in a country/society built by the rich, for the rich, so it kinda makes perfect sense. Now if only said country didn't try to fume the rest of the world too with their decrepit ideas and laws...
The Gary Bowser case: This feels so outlandish to me. As a person living in Finland, here all debt will expire. For a debt as a result of a judgement in a criminal case, that is 20 years from the time of the judgement. After that, what ever is left uncollected, cannot be collected any longer. edit: Also in Finland there is strict laws on how wages can be garnished, and you the bailiff is regulated. In general you need to be able to keep your dwelling, and such.
45:36 My advice for the C programmer: learn a desktop programming language, like Python, C# or Java. Automation and tools is where 20 years have truly accelerated at, and finally some of the desktop development tools and paradigms are getting into embedded development. Things like unit tests, simulation/emulation before deploying on hardware, continuous integration (CI), CD, etc. are very powerful. Since I employed these techniques (especially unit tests), I've had far less need to sit in a lab with physical hardware attached to my laptop. I would write code once on my PC, functionally test it and verify edge cases, and then only have to make sure it compiles to sane code size/time complexity on the target device. That last part is already inclusive of the embedded mindset (no malloc, etc.), so I'm sure that sounds familiar. Also consider learning C++11 and later. Since then , C++ has got very powerful compile-time expressions and there are plenty of alternatives to the heavy stdlib. Learn how to automate tedious jobs with said desktop language like Python, C#. I'm not suggesting to go "full stack" professionally. But knowing bits here and there is useful. Being able to build/automate your own dev environment is useful. Roll your own toolchain instead of the proprietary junk that manufacturers ship to you. Etc. The programming of embedded devices in C hasn't changed much. Take it as an advantage that this industry is generally fairly slow paced. It's not like web where a new JS framework is the next best thing every 6 to 12 months. But given that legacy and high deployment costs is such a major pillar in embedded, it makes a lot more sense to invest in robust code development and testing techniques. There is still plenty of work in embedded, and unlike web/desktop development, I don't foresee a tool like ChatGPT writing new firmware just yet in the next few years.
That was the strangest part of that question to me, embedded programming is still useful and will be useful so I don't know why they laughed. If we assume AI or whatever will take over embedded programming then why would anyone assume something else is safe
I don't see any ML algos like ChatGPT replacing embedded programmers. The challenge with embedded systems isn't writing the code, it's conceptually understanding how the individual pieces work and doing 1st principles kind of thinking to derive a design that solves the problem while meeting all the constraints. The coding is actually the easiest part.
Decent embedded C coders will earn hand over fist over some general C++ monkeys or those chasing FOTM languages/stacks. One is hard to find, the other is about to be replaced by bots.
Hard drives might be a bit more modern version, I've always loved the ideal of how records work and how someone figured them out. Its quite amazing that its possible to create an exact pitch and vocal match with just a variation of a bump on something you run a needle over it, and then the processing of said tiny bumps into larger sounds. We, as a collective species, have created some AMAZING things. Mostly done by individuals who had the ability (time and lack of worry about survival necessities, and resources), if only we could give far more of humanity that same ability and access to resources, the things we might come up with then.
I listen on Google Podcasts, but there the sponsors are replaced with other read out sponsor spots, so I come to UA-cam specifically for Denis's sponsor spots :D
@@feltedsneed If he can't pay the fine anyway, why try? Just find some shady way to make money under the table and keep on stealing. If the obligation cannot be fulfilled, don't try. Just find a way to keep on living. The guy has no reason to change his behavior since ther'e no benefit to him--he's bankrupt and ruined regardless. And no one else will be scared into compliance by this precedent because their anger will overpower their fear. Try again. Try to say something less condescending next time.
I love the longer shows! I sit down on Fridays and do the weekly accounting for my small business. I put on my airpods and have WAN in the background and continue capturing invoices and doing the books!
Just so everyone knows... I want the un structured wan show back. 5 hours can carry me through a week of doing stuff and having something to listen to!!
While I love 5 hour wan show just as much as you and am happy to have additional content I can consume throughout the week, this is for the best. As someone with experience in casual live streaming it's actually work, even to just be yourself. I have already started to notice a shift in Linus's attitude in these longer WAN shows where he just isn't excited to cover certain topics, especially if he doesn't think the audience will be interested. It's probably an enormous amount of pressure for him to continuously watch the numbers and try to keep viewers interested, especially through a 5 hour WAN show. I believe this will ultimately be more sustainable for them and will lead to more enthusiastic conversations.
The After Dark with the multi tasking of trying to think, speak and type I found to be disengaging. I think having the questions read out loud or having quick fire rounds is better.
Here is where I lose my mind, A small group of individuals mess with Nintendo and end up being screwed for life. Yet somebody like SBF and Elizabeth Holmes (only got 13 years) get to just walk away nearly free of the impact they had on people, where their actions actually cost lives. When I was 20 and you offer me the chance to go sit in jail for $500 million dollars retirement at 40 it would not even be something I would think about. (If it isn't clear my answer would be where do I sign) I also think both their schemes was built for early retirement and both of them knew they were going to get caught. Their retirements are set for when they come out of jail. I would like to see their future income garnished for the investors and lives they impacted but we all know there is two different legal systems in the world.
I don't like Holmes one bit and she deserves all the punishment she got, but in her case the investors ,social media and press don't go scot-free either. She was treated as the next Steve Jobs, nothing she did was wrong and critics were accused of being jealous nay-sayers, while many experts in the field warned them.
Two legal systems: The 'justice' system for beautiful people, rich people and women: Lesser sentence/Get out of jail free card. The 'justice' system for everyone else: Get rekt filthy casual.
@@hamster3171 A US federal prison/holiday club is not that bad of a deal. If I had to go to jail in my country, it might affect my decision. Even then I would probably risk it.
I love the more unstructured version and even better if it's longer. Wan-show is a highlight of my Saturdays, and I love you guys talking for hours on end. Greetings from Germany 👋
Just watched the entire WAN show during work. I am enjoying the structure and length, more so than I have in the past. I use to just catch the LMG clips.
A youtuber The Cherno, who is a game engine dev who used to work on Frostbite and is now building an open source engine pointed out that the whole thing looks like a photogrammetry set When you take a photo of something and show it in a game, it's "photorealistic", which works well with their fancy gopro exposure simulation, but you can still tell
Not ashamed to admit it got me at first. Stage 1> it's a bodycam Stage 2> it's a bodycam with some post processing to make it look kinda gamey, very cool Stage 3> wait how much editing would that take to make it look that borderline Stage 4> oshit that's a game. It was pretty convincing, had me until pretty close to the end.
I saw instantly that it was a game. While is uses good textures, the geometry in some places is not that good... And the Grass in the first Scene grows out of the solid stone...
Regarding PA, look into the Dante protocol. It's an audio-over-IP protocol that's very low latency and is used in professional sound systems as well as PA. You can get receivers and transmitters that are PoE and just plug into an ethernet port in the wall and connect to your network switch. There is also built-in zoning functions and you connect everything together through a virtual patch panel on a PC.
The thing that really makes the realistic gameplay footage for me is the natural camera shake. I tried recording videos in game with my Quest 2, just holding the headset in my hand as if it was a camera. And while the Quest 2 graphics are mid, the resulting video still has this weird realistic feel to it. Just because I was holding a "real camera" with my real hands in the game world. Resulting in very natural camera movement.
The topic regarding the fine strikes close to home for me at the moment. Obviously not to the same degree, but the company I currently work for are attempting to fine me £8000 for repairs to van that was broken into. For myself that equates to around 26.8% of my yearly income before tax deductions, which I wont get any break on as my reported earnings will stay the same if the fine is paid. Its put me in a horrible position where I literally cant afford to leave a company that is absolutely horrible to work for.
I have always loved the pre wanshow content, early and later period wanshows and AFTER PARTIES, but the last month has been the best! DLL FTW. I enjoy the 5 to 10 hour streams of whatever you do!
I was just so stoked that Starship actually left the ground, let alone hit Max Q and not break up. Such an achievement. Joe Public isn't normally privy to these kinds of rocket tests.
2:48:20 - When a company looks to save money or improve productivity, it is going to be on the backs of someone or something. The inevitable first thing that goes out the window in the effort to make those new targets will be safety. If you work on a production line and they up the quota, you're going to start overreaching instead of taking the time to walk over and pick up something properly in order to save those precious seconds. The same applies to autonomous hauler vehicles.
The metaphor for the hard drive is not a bird flying in a hurricane. The metaphor is if the head of a hard drive were a 747 it would be flying at mach 800, 1 cm off the ground, and it would be counting every blade of grass.
Thanks for this weekly show which is most of the time very interesting, but I have to admit not all topics are. However, adding markers in the progress bar for each major topic would be a huge improvement as they would allow us to jump right to the topic(s) that we're interested in.
I love the chaos of the WAN show, the fact that it is half off the rails from the first 30sec on is large part of the fun. Also been really enjoying the longer WAN shows, so if "structured" means shorter, less chaotic shows, then I'm not a fan. Don't let the WAN show go corporate! (this is a joke.... mostly)
What left me perplexed with Unrecord is not the realism of the environment graphics (which are impressive), but the diversity of the hand animation. Almost all moves are unique, the firing and reloading are almost never the same for one shot to other which strongly puzzled me. it would almost seems like the hand animations are motion captured from the start to the end instead of repetitively played animation, like you would expect for target render (like the infamous KillZone 2 E3 trailer back in 2005).
I noticed that! Along with the visuals, just the animation ov everything feels very close to looking through the body camera. The angles, the shaking while running, just everything. No doubt this game will be controversial even though the devs are trying their best to prevent the game being controversial.
I believe UE5 has a system for creating procedural animations. That said it has its limits. During one of the reloads the mag clips through the gun/hand.
2:53:38 I had the same problem. The solution would be to not have a sunroof if you have the choice. The sunroof takes up a couple of cm of you headspace
Luke seeing Linus showing off dollar figures of how much they've made on merch messages and not knowing if pointing it out would make it better or worse
I commented this the last time the new backpack was shown, but I really hope it'll be possible to get the teal interior on a "normal" backpack, i.e. NOT with the leather-or-fake-leather exterior.
My 2cents (no, im not Jay), structure things however works for you guys. As you've talked about before, its the feel of hanging out with you guys that is great, and we all know that feeling of awkward silence. So do things how you need to to keep YOU engaged and not burn out.
Not only has google sat back and done nothing in terms of competition in the AI world, Google itself has gotten so bad. The first few results are ALWAYS promoted results and ads, and clearly just pushes the results from publishers that pay the most on advertisements.
I never thought Canada would allow legal indentured servidude on an individual from a corporation, foreign to boot, before the USA. Your country's liberalism is out standing.
Linus thanks for that bit in the end it cracked me up. I have ADHD and A.S.S. but I am an extrovert person so that sometimes clashes but because my parents always supported me. It also helps that I had the mentality whenever someone said I could not do it I would prove them otherwise. both high school and Uni told me something in the lines of go work at a grocery, and I am now a mechanical /electrical engineer. At my work we joke that ever one who is an engineer has A.S.S. so i feel at home there :P. So teas as you say you need people who support you, I see to many of my friends just give up because very one said they could not do it....
Linus should buy a few Flashlights and see how they look... There are some that have such defined circles, BUT since the wall is very close it should reflect form the wall and light up the whole room. I have a 1800 lumen flashlight, when I point it up the white roof, the whole room is bright as if I turned on the lights. Not daylight bright tho.
But that could be purposely done to make it look like a video game. As an elaborate hoax like we've seen in the past on the internet. That's the argument. I'm surprised Luke didn't mention that.
Been saying for ages Elon got no chance I even predicted he would blow the thing up on launch. Now if a GCSE level muggins like me can do that, what does it say about his fans lol. The cult of Elon coin, the real martians.
@@DailyCorvid Same was said in the beginning of SpaceX. They blew up 7 or 8 rockets before succeeding. NASA blew and killed how many people? It is part of the space exploration business. If it was easy we would be colonizing Pluto by now. The fact you hate on people and processes doesn't change reality. He is just a human anyway, he should be recognized for his achievements and flaws as any other human. Nothing to do with this particular rocket. People idolize movie stars, why wouldn't they idolize Elon? Nothing to do with Elon, people are just dumb and naive like that!
As someone who worked at an office with a coffee machine, there are days of arguments around the coffee machine I can think of. (Looking at you guy who always put two pots worth of coffee grounds into a single pot making some kind of insanely bitter jet fuel)
As someone who has been driving semi for over half a decade, autonomous semi trucks don't have to be that good to be better than the average. I have seen so many careless drivers, even in my own yard I work out of where we have a very good safety record. I truly believe it will come sooner than anybody anticipates.
I’ll be honest I really liked the loosely structured 5 hour wan shows. I drive around a ton week to week and having this to listen to in the car is great!
There was a recent scandal in TrackMania as well, where in some areas keyboard controls are vastly superior to controllers, but in other areas controllers win. The reason is keyboard is a 100% or 0% input for steering, which you modulate with frequency of pushing the button, while a controller is an analog scale from 0-100%. Traditionally some pro players play on keyboard, but also have a controller plugged in, which they only use when they reach those areas where an analog % input is advantageous. Recently, some keyboards can be programmed in a way that a certain key registers to the OS (therefore to the game), as if it was an analog input, for example 35% right input. This way the players could still have the advantage of normal keyboard inputs, but they could even be better than controllers, because they could jump instantly to the desired analog value instead of moving the joystick. The developers had to do a long review and decided that going forward this will be considered cheating. Kinda wild how even simple racing games are susceptible to this. The whole appeal of TM is you only need 4 buttons to play it, and the physics is perfectly deterministic so you can race to the millisecond.
I agree, I was like this is just bodycam until the flashlight, it just gives it away. Then after seeing it really is a video game footage, you see all the other tells.
@@costafilh0 thats kinda how I imagined it. a primarily Dan hosted show with one other person. I bet he'd make a great interviewer for guest interviews too.
Linus, my pistol flashlight is just about exactly like that. The only thing i can really se wrong with the flashlight is the reflections from the stairs and railing is way to much.
Doubtful mate, considering you are magnifying through a lens which is nothing like the shape of a perfect circle with a nicely smooth 25% gradient throughout with no artifacts or defects, no leaks, nothing its perfect - and so is the wall. Maybe we have better eyesight lol. I saw it like a hole in a gastank.
@@DailyCorvid You can doubt as much as you like, go out and try some better tactical and other higher end lights as i have used for years and you will figure out fairly fast that the light cone itself is not what is necessaraly "wrong". My Lumintop EDC05, and a random Massdrop light i have comes really close, while my Lenlenser P7r and old T7 comes fairy close with my Streamlight TLR-1 HL not too far behind if i take off the can om my 416. Thou the TLR does have some "sqaring" of the hotspot if you get close to the wall. What IS wrong is the reflection on the stairs and railing in the dark bit, and there is not enough light bounce from the flashlight making the contrast between the dark and flashlight illuminated part of the room way to high. I also noticed some pixelated shadows in the same area while pixelpeaping, but i would never have seen that without pausing. The barrel smoke effects thou, is... not great.
Linus and Luke, I always watch WAN show on Sunday afternoon due to my schedule, so this comment may never even get seen… Nonetheless, I love the show! I never comment on videos, but i couldn’t resist this time. BUY THE GR COROLLA! I preordered mine, drove over 600 miles to get it, and paid dealership scalping price over MSRP, but it was all worth it. It makes me smile every time I get in it! To Luke, it’s my daily driver/commuter car so it gets 100 miles a day. I wouldn’t dream of buying such a fun car to never enjoy it! Y’all keep doing great work, CW
To remark about the new format, I like it. I have found myself watching the whole WAN show a whole lot more recently where I hadn't been watching much at all before.
I always have it playing in the background, in a pic-in-pic window and get on with my day.... Then the next day watch it full screen when I am chilling at the weekend :) Best part of the internet = WAN Fridays.
Nintendo didn't lose any money. Its money they didn't make. To say Nintendo lost money to team executor assumes that every sale that executor made would have been made via Nintendo.
You can tell society is going off the rails when law becomes its most ruthless in the defence of money. I'll always remember MAX HEADROOM, and Edison Carter's boss getting a call to help stave off an arrest, to which is boss responds "Credit fraud? My god that's worse than murder."
If you look, governments class tax evasion as a greater crime than murder, ( murder by government is a pat on the head ). If it is assassinating someone in government, OK that is worse, ( unless their opposition gets in but even then they will still prosecute as they want to discourage it happening to them ). And that video of the Blip Vert victim is brutal. ( porridge explosion )
in the second half of the Unrecorded proof video, they show some 4K screenshots. The high resolution without the camera movement hiding some stuff makes it easier to see the video game look.
Watch your show and appreciate the time and effort you guys put in to make a awesome show. Thanks for the content and the now new excellent Hoodie I purchased at your merch store. All of them pockets and the color combination is the best. I know it’s almost summer but hey, never know when ya might need it 😅thanks for your content😎👊you guys are awesome🤜🤛 53:47
That's how it works in From Software's games (Dark Souls and Elden Ring, not sure about Bloodborne). You get "softbanned" which means that you will only be able see and play with other players who are also softbanned.
Hey Luke, why don't you add an auto split feature to the incoming merch messages so that at the end Dan can click a button for either 2 or 3 columns, then the page can split to like "Curated | 1 | 2 | 3". Then once that works next steps would be even out every so often when Dan has answered 6 and linus has answered 1 as a example. And to let someone focus one column so you can see just what you're replying to, yours + curated, or all columns
Also the support option should be something you guys can click too, so if someone hasn't done as I imagine is likely you can just say "I don't know we'll get someone to find out for you" generate ticket
The gameplay trailer seems to be using entirely precalculated lighting, hence why it looks so good, but any dynamic elements like the flashlight or enemies don't hold up so well. Right at the end it's extremely evident that the enemies aren't casting the proper shadows you'd expect for example. The flashlight also doesn't create any ambient light. Light should bounce off walls and light up the area outside its direct cone of light.
The game demo footage reminds of when half life 2 was first demoed, the quality jump was so apparent and this feels the same. If you follow what epic has done unreal engine 5 when they showed how its new tools could be used to enhance the level details its not that a suprise that this could be done.
What's funny is I can tell that google is finally working on their voice assistant again ever since the rise of ChatGPT but the only way I can tell is because my voice assistant has started struggling with basic tasks like "turn on the ___ lights" where every once in a while it just ignores the ____ and turns on/off every single light in every room. I've been using the same commands for 5 years and never had this issue before a few months ago. And with the google home you could think maybe it's hearing you wrong but it does the same thing on my phone while displaying the correct transcription of what I said.
You know what I love about LTT. It's that everyone pretty much looks like they are all at home with family instead of a work place with workers ABCDEF and so on
Regarding the Huawei/Seagate thing, it might be that refusal to ship those units to Huawei would have bankrupt them. At that stage, you have to choose between keeping good relationships with your partners or obey a ridiculous law. Also those hdds (or firmware) were not manufactured in the US, posing serious concerns for the global economy or your bottom line as a design only entity (like most American companies are today).
2:00:00 for LTX have a WAN show that streams live the entire time with hosts and guests subbing in theoufht the period. Can show off ongoing events abd such as well.
One day when Linus’ kids are asked if a skin is real and if it should be paid for it, they are going to answer, “yes, dad, it’s real, it’s digital art, someone worked on it and I’m paying for having it on my digital persona” and he is not going to have a valid comeback
The biggest endorsement of UE5 is ut being used for the mandalorian, and them shooting infrong of a tv wall instead of a green screen. Yeah there are parts lf the mandalorian that looks cgi but there is plenty you just don't notice. Seeing how it got made, thats what made me go, video games are gonna get so good, glad to see that game devs are working hard

Thanks to the timestamp guy for his service.

Feedback on the more structured approach:
I like that you are scrambling less for what to do next. It's nice that you already know what to do next and don't have to constantly negotiate. It feels less stressful.
But I am a bit worried about too much structure destroying the casualness of the conversation. I very much love that you sometimes go off-script if it seems appropriate for the topic or the situation.
For example picking up an earlier topic again spontaneously if you see a good comment that can add to a conversation.
Keep it a genuine conversation and make sure it doesn't become scripted.
Also the rapid fire merch messages felt kinda boring for the average listener. I'd rather listen to them dive further into more interesting messages/topics
This. It feels bad at times when they struggle to figure what to do next, and sometimes I wish they didn't run out of time and either rush or completely skip a topic, but that's pretty rare, or at least I rarely notice it went that way. Usually I'm fully engaged in whatever they choose to do and yeah I simply enjoy them fully discussing a topic to their heart's content. Like you said the more snappy topic switch is nice, but I don't want them to cut some segments short because of that.
Too be clear, I have been loving the approx 4hr WAN shows. I don't want the "more structured" show too lead to shorter episodes. I enjoy waking up early Saturday, drinking coffee and chilling in the recliner with WAN
I agree. I like to listen to the long WAN shows at work.
Well said! I can see you in the recliner! We definitely need longer episodes. All the best my friend, Richard U.K
Same, I enjoy having something _truly_ long format that I can listen to literally throughout the week, if I didn't already finish it early. 3h35 is still plenty long compared to many 1h shows I've seen through the years, but I don't want them to feel like they need to cut it short either. If they're tired and need to stop, sure. For us though? For me making them shorter is *not* better 🤷♂️
I mean isn't that what lmg clips is for anyways?
Yeah I’m a fan of the long ones, but I get it. Lots of work
As someone who works overnight security, I am constantly convinced people who make games have literally never used a half decent flashlight. Linus calling it out is hilarious.
Imagine the whining you'd get if a game had realistic flashlights. Or realistic guns. Or realistic ammo.
Fuck it - people whine about realistic drownings not looking dramatic enough in tv shows and movies.
At the same time, I don't think you guys have developed games?
Games designers put gameplay cheats into games because games are meant to be played, not lived.
Look up some things like Coyote timing or corner collider thresholds.
Even sim games have some forms of gameplay cheating to get around the physics and timing of computers v.s. people.
@@ytfeelslikenorthkorea It has less to do with the devs never having done those things (many have) and more with the players not doing those things while playing. Games require more than just suspension of disbelief, they require elements which actively help you suspend your disbelief, as well as elements which help you understand everything that's happening. Since the player is doing things by essentially pressing buttons, they don't have a good feedback for the physicality and when something happens without sufficient feedback, it actually creates disbelief. A game therefore cannot afford to have certain elements because rather than feeling realistic, they'd simply be frustrating. For similar reasons, reload animations and other actions need to be exaggerated in order to provide strong visual feedback.
And when it comes to flashlights, it's important to keep in mind that they are a gameplay element and as such need to be balanced to make sense in the context of the game.
@@zappy7393 Trying to get a box to look 3D with maths, that's a start. Now give me 100% realistic physics and you're using frickin Python and you're 5 months into it :)
I have a sprite, I can move it left and right. Lol.
@@ytfeelslikenorthkorea games are meant to be fun, not real.
The Gary Bowser problem really boils down to this - if a company had been hit with a fine of that size (proportionally), it could simply declare bankruptcy and everyone involved would just walk away and start elsewhere (except the employees, of course - they are always fucked in these things). And it's not like you can jail a company either.
As long as companies are treated substantially better than actual people, society will not be just.
To expand - in 2020 the median after-tax income of Canadian households was CA$73,000. With a $14 million fine, Bowser was hit with a judgement that was 191x the median household income.
Seagate was hit with a fine that was twice their profit on the sale, and 18% of their net income for 2022. If Bowser had been with a similar scale judgement, it would have been less than $14,000. Less than 0.1% of what he was actually hit with.
Now, these are two different countries, however, it is extremely telling that when a person breaks the law and wrongs a company for profit they are punished 1,000 times as hard as when a company wrongs a country for profit.
It's no secret that companies are heavily favored over private persons, as you said the consequences are laughable for companies. Meanwhile judges are completely fine "making an example" out of random people despite it being proven to have little to no effect on preventing further issues in the future.
On the other hand, team Xecuter knowingly and willingly monetized piracy and should've known this would've gotten back to them to bite them in the ass.
The amount might be insane for a single individual, but it's not like he couldn't have known this would happen.
@@Stealth86651I think it's reasonable to expect your punishment to fit your crime. And I don't think anyone would think something pretty close to debt slavery would be a reasonableness punishment
@@xorinzor That's mostly beside the point. The problem is not that there was a punishment dealt for committing a crime. The problem is that the punishment is not commensurate with the crime and is outlandishly severe.
If someone steals, obviously they knew it was wrong, but they shouldnt get their hand cut off for it like they used to back in the day.
Adding structure is important if you actually want to get through the topics, but too much structure may take away from the type of show this is. A lot of us are used to the free-flowing vibe. If you can keep that energy while talking about tech topics, shoehorn the merch messages in somewhere in the middle and leave the rest for after dark (rather than having two merch messages, segments and the after dark at the end), and do sponsors still; I think you have a pretty good show on your hands
I’m torn about it being more structured, I think it’s much more sustainable for the two of you but I was really loving the loose and conversational long form we were getting. So I’m overall fine with either but if it was fully up to my preference I like the long and loose style more.
Definitely would say I significantly prefer a looser flow. A “boxed in” vibe messes with part of what WAN is to me. The tangents and back and forth-ness always brings so much neat information and perspective to the table.
I get the structure though, and not just looking for where to go all the time is probably a good thing.
As someone who until recently was working on Embedded C myself, for device drivers on Numerical Relays, I've shifted to Linux Device Drivers and I'd suggest getting an online portfolio and LinkedIn was the way I got the new job. It's not too hard to flip over or start over.
When speaking about the size of fines for companies the size is really important because it is so rare for the people in charge to get prison sentences.
If the only penalty is a fine, then it becomes "cost of doing business" and in that case the fine must be larger than the profit.
This person got both prison and a fine bigger than the profit, which is why it is feels so cruel and unusual.
I am actually very confused about it in general. I guess that's the difference between law systems in different countries? But in many many countries the judge would absolutely not fly with this at all for the same reason Linus already mentioned. Similar cases even have happened in the past. In most of these cases the person is just being declared bankrupt. (which btw also sucks). The only case were this wouldn't be possible, is when there are highly illegal activities involved. These kinda cases are usually just a few years jail time.
The whole case doesn't make sense at all.
It really seems that Nintendo just bought the judge and declared Bowser the Example to all modders/pirates out there.
Having a 14.5 mi fine attached to a single person that wasn't even the head of the pirate team and still send him to prison doesn't make a single ounce of sense when talking about Crime and Punishment.
If it was the 14.5 Mi sentence or a prison sentence (since he can't pay) it would make sense, even if it's still a cruelt punishment.
Hey, he did get tried in a country/society built by the rich, for the rich, so it kinda makes perfect sense. Now if only said country didn't try to fume the rest of the world too with their decrepit ideas and laws...
The 51% thing had me on the floor laughing 😂. Linus's face after pure gold
Best moment in LTT history! OMG😂
She had that locked and loaded in the chamber 😂😂
The Gary Bowser case: This feels so outlandish to me. As a person living in Finland, here all debt will expire. For a debt as a result of a judgement in a criminal case, that is 20 years from the time of the judgement. After that, what ever is left uncollected, cannot be collected any longer.
edit: Also in Finland there is strict laws on how wages can be garnished, and you the bailiff is regulated. In general you need to be able to keep your dwelling, and such.
45:36 My advice for the C programmer: learn a desktop programming language, like Python, C# or Java. Automation and tools is where 20 years have truly accelerated at, and finally some of the desktop development tools and paradigms are getting into embedded development. Things like unit tests, simulation/emulation before deploying on hardware, continuous integration (CI), CD, etc. are very powerful. Since I employed these techniques (especially unit tests), I've had far less need to sit in a lab with physical hardware attached to my laptop. I would write code once on my PC, functionally test it and verify edge cases, and then only have to make sure it compiles to sane code size/time complexity on the target device. That last part is already inclusive of the embedded mindset (no malloc, etc.), so I'm sure that sounds familiar.
Also consider learning C++11 and later. Since then , C++ has got very powerful compile-time expressions and there are plenty of alternatives to the heavy stdlib.
Learn how to automate tedious jobs with said desktop language like Python, C#. I'm not suggesting to go "full stack" professionally. But knowing bits here and there is useful.
Being able to build/automate your own dev environment is useful. Roll your own toolchain instead of the proprietary junk that manufacturers ship to you. Etc.
The programming of embedded devices in C hasn't changed much. Take it as an advantage that this industry is generally fairly slow paced. It's not like web where a new JS framework is the next best thing every 6 to 12 months. But given that legacy and high deployment costs is such a major pillar in embedded, it makes a lot more sense to invest in robust code development and testing techniques. There is still plenty of work in embedded, and unlike web/desktop development, I don't foresee a tool like ChatGPT writing new firmware just yet in the next few years.
That was the strangest part of that question to me, embedded programming is still useful and will be useful so I don't know why they laughed.
If we assume AI or whatever will take over embedded programming then why would anyone assume something else is safe
@@cyjanek7818 I know of multiple companies over here in europe that would hire him no doubt. After an excruciating background check though. But still.
I don't see any ML algos like ChatGPT replacing embedded programmers. The challenge with embedded systems isn't writing the code, it's conceptually understanding how the individual pieces work and doing 1st principles kind of thinking to derive a design that solves the problem while meeting all the constraints. The coding is actually the easiest part.
Decent embedded C coders will earn hand over fist over some general C++ monkeys or those chasing FOTM languages/stacks. One is hard to find, the other is about to be replaced by bots.
@@hellcoreproductions can you expand FOTM?😅
Hard drives might be a bit more modern version, I've always loved the ideal of how records work and how someone figured them out. Its quite amazing that its possible to create an exact pitch and vocal match with just a variation of a bump on something you run a needle over it, and then the processing of said tiny bumps into larger sounds.
We, as a collective species, have created some AMAZING things. Mostly done by individuals who had the ability (time and lack of worry about survival necessities, and resources), if only we could give far more of humanity that same ability and access to resources, the things we might come up with then.
Necessity might be the mother of invention, but free time is a strong muse

I love the longer shows! I sit down on Fridays and do the weekly accounting for my small business. I put on my airpods and have WAN in the background and continue capturing invoices and doing the books!
Just so everyone knows... I want the un structured wan show back. 5 hours can carry me through a week of doing stuff and having something to listen to!!
While I love 5 hour wan show just as much as you and am happy to have additional content I can consume throughout the week, this is for the best. As someone with experience in casual live streaming it's actually work, even to just be yourself.
I have already started to notice a shift in Linus's attitude in these longer WAN shows where he just isn't excited to cover certain topics, especially if he doesn't think the audience will be interested. It's probably an enormous amount of pressure for him to continuously watch the numbers and try to keep viewers interested, especially through a 5 hour WAN show.
I believe this will ultimately be more sustainable for them and will lead to more enthusiastic conversations.
@@Drazil100 makes sense!!

Here is where I lose my mind, A small group of individuals mess with Nintendo and end up being screwed for life. Yet somebody like SBF and Elizabeth Holmes (only got 13 years) get to just walk away nearly free of the impact they had on people, where their actions actually cost lives. When I was 20 and you offer me the chance to go sit in jail for $500 million dollars retirement at 40 it would not even be something I would think about. (If it isn't clear my answer would be where do I sign)
I also think both their schemes was built for early retirement and both of them knew they were going to get caught. Their retirements are set for when they come out of jail.
I would like to see their future income garnished for the investors and lives they impacted but we all know there is two different legal systems in the world.
I don't like Holmes one bit and she deserves all the punishment she got, but in her case the investors ,social media and press don't go scot-free either. She was treated as the next Steve Jobs, nothing she did was wrong and critics were accused of being jealous nay-sayers, while many experts in the field warned them.
Two legal systems:
The 'justice' system for beautiful people, rich people and women: Lesser sentence/Get out of jail free card.
The 'justice' system for everyone else: Get rekt filthy casual.
You wouldn't want to go for years in jail in your 20s . Your youth is priceless.

Good to have a job that lets you lol
A youtuber The Cherno, who is a game engine dev who used to work on Frostbite and is now building an open source engine pointed out that the whole thing looks like a photogrammetry set
When you take a photo of something and show it in a game, it's "photorealistic", which works well with their fancy gopro exposure simulation, but you can still tell
Was about to suggest here that people watch that. His other stuff is also very interesting, like his "Road to PS5" commentary.

I think the lighting is really amazing and makes it so realistic.
"You can have a Go XLR!"
HahahhahahahahahHhahaha
I'm dying here...
Regarding PA, look into the Dante protocol. It's an audio-over-IP protocol that's very low latency and is used in professional sound systems as well as PA. You can get receivers and transmitters that are PoE and just plug into an ethernet port in the wall and connect to your network switch. There is also built-in zoning functions and you connect everything together through a virtual patch panel on a PC.
Was asleep for the first time in 2 years during a WAN show.
Well I am getting old now I need my naps :D .
Love the show!!
@@1newme425 I swear each year my bed-time loses an hour of ground :D
The thing that really makes the realistic gameplay footage for me is the natural camera shake. I tried recording videos in game with my Quest 2, just holding the headset in my hand as if it was a camera. And while the Quest 2 graphics are mid, the resulting video still has this weird realistic feel to it. Just because I was holding a "real camera" with my real hands in the game world. Resulting in very natural camera movement.
The topic regarding the fine strikes close to home for me at the moment. Obviously not to the same degree, but the company I currently work for are attempting to fine me £8000 for repairs to van that was broken into. For myself that equates to around 26.8% of my yearly income before tax deductions, which I wont get any break on as my reported earnings will stay the same if the fine is paid. Its put me in a horrible position where I literally cant afford to leave a company that is absolutely horrible to work for.
@2:24:00 WAN after dark is an amazing add. Like the structure of doing merch messages mid show as well with the lighting round questions.
I have always loved the pre wanshow content, early and later period wanshows and AFTER PARTIES, but the last month has been the best! DLL FTW. I enjoy the 5 to 10 hour streams of whatever you do!
"After dark" is better now, when we can see you again, and not only as shadows as it was for a few times.
Mage Quit looks super fun. Might try it with friends soon
That WAG hoodie is very funny cos I listen to the WAN show when I'm walking my dog haha
I love the huge WAN shows.
I was just so stoked that Starship actually left the ground, let alone hit Max Q and not break up. Such an achievement. Joe Public isn't normally privy to these kinds of rocket tests.
Yes we are lol. We're privy to basically every single test launch aside from those in communist nations
2:48:20 - When a company looks to save money or improve productivity, it is going to be on the backs of someone or something. The inevitable first thing that goes out the window in the effort to make those new targets will be safety. If you work on a production line and they up the quota, you're going to start overreaching instead of taking the time to walk over and pick up something properly in order to save those precious seconds. The same applies to autonomous hauler vehicles.
The metaphor for the hard drive is not a bird flying in a hurricane. The metaphor is if the head of a hard drive were a 747 it would be flying at mach 800, 1 cm off the ground, and it would be counting every blade of grass.
Awwww down to under 4 hours. Oh well. The wan show is love. The wan show is life.
A kitchen drill? made me laugh real good
I always changed the keybinds in Pinball whenever I played that back in the day. The default controls didn't make sense.
Thanks for this weekly show which is most of the time very interesting, but I have to admit not all topics are. However, adding markers in the progress bar for each major topic would be a huge improvement as they would allow us to jump right to the topic(s) that we're interested in.
I love the chaos of the WAN show, the fact that it is half off the rails from the first 30sec on is large part of the fun. Also been really enjoying the longer WAN shows, so if "structured" means shorter, less chaotic shows, then I'm not a fan. Don't let the WAN show go corporate! (this is a joke.... mostly)
What left me perplexed with Unrecord is not the realism of the environment graphics (which are impressive), but the diversity of the hand animation. Almost all moves are unique, the firing and reloading are almost never the same for one shot to other which strongly puzzled me.
it would almost seems like the hand animations are motion captured from the start to the end instead of repetitively played animation, like you would expect for target render (like the infamous KillZone 2 E3 trailer back in 2005).
I noticed that! Along with the visuals, just the animation ov everything feels very close to looking through the body camera. The angles, the shaking while running, just everything. No doubt this game will be controversial even though the devs are trying their best to prevent the game being controversial.
I believe UE5 has a system for creating procedural animations. That said it has its limits. During one of the reloads the mag clips through the gun/hand.
There have been may of times that I ordered not in Amazon but they still fulfilled the order.
2:53:38 I had the same problem. The solution would be to not have a sunroof if you have the choice. The sunroof takes up a couple of cm of you headspace
Luke seeing Linus showing off dollar figures of how much they've made on merch messages and not knowing if pointing it out would make it better or worse
ironically the CEO of nintendo america is named Doug Bowser. so its Bowser v Bowser
I commented this the last time the new backpack was shown, but I really hope it'll be possible to get the teal interior on a "normal" backpack, i.e. NOT with the leather-or-fake-leather exterior.
My 2cents (no, im not Jay), structure things however works for you guys. As you've talked about before, its the feel of hanging out with you guys that is great, and we all know that feeling of awkward silence. So do things how you need to to keep YOU engaged and not burn out.
Not only has google sat back and done nothing in terms of competition in the AI world, Google itself has gotten so bad. The first few results are ALWAYS promoted results and ads, and clearly just pushes the results from publishers that pay the most on advertisements.
Sentenced to live on the streets for hurting Nintendo's pocket change
3:25:41 as a bicycle owner i do like that, it makes sure i hear the car coming, instead of feeling the car.
I never thought Canada would allow legal indentured servidude on an individual from a corporation, foreign to boot, before the USA. Your country's liberalism is out standing.
Linus thanks for that bit in the end it cracked me up.
I have ADHD and A.S.S. but I am an extrovert person so that sometimes clashes but because my parents always supported me.
It also helps that I had the mentality whenever someone said I could not do it I would prove them otherwise. both high school and Uni told me something in the lines of go work at a grocery, and I am now a mechanical /electrical engineer. At my work we joke that ever one who is an engineer has A.S.S. so i feel at home there :P.
So teas as you say you need people who support you, I see to many of my friends just give up because very one said they could not do it....
Linus should buy a few Flashlights and see how they look... There are some that have such defined circles, BUT since the wall is very close it should reflect form the wall and light up the whole room. I have a 1800 lumen flashlight, when I point it up the white roof, the whole room is bright as if I turned on the lights. Not daylight bright tho.
As someone who fixes broken down houses, those textures on the dirt and debris are comfortably uncanny valley.
I'm with Linus, at about 15 seconds in the original video when the guy pans left after going inside, you can easily tell it's a videogame.
But that could be purposely done to make it look like a video game. As an elaborate hoax like we've seen in the past on the internet. That's the argument. I'm surprised Luke didn't mention that.
That rocket is MASSIVE! No wonder why it destroyed the launchpad 🤣
biggest rocket ever build (bigger than saturn 5) and spacex didn't bother with a proper launch site for testing
Been saying for ages Elon got no chance I even predicted he would blow the thing up on launch. Now if a GCSE level muggins like me can do that, what does it say about his fans lol.
The cult of Elon coin, the real martians.
@@DailyCorvid Same was said in the beginning of SpaceX. They blew up 7 or 8 rockets before succeeding. NASA blew and killed how many people? It is part of the space exploration business. If it was easy we would be colonizing Pluto by now. The fact you hate on people and processes doesn't change reality. He is just a human anyway, he should be recognized for his achievements and flaws as any other human. Nothing to do with this particular rocket. People idolize movie stars, why wouldn't they idolize Elon? Nothing to do with Elon, people are just dumb and naive like that!
@@DailyCorvid I'm pretty sure everyone at spacex was surprised it even got off the pad tbqh, it lost quite a few engines on takeoff
I thought that game trailer was done in VR which I was really excited because that would be an awesome VR game
The more structured format is good. It reminds me of old WAN from the couch.
Man Yvonne really holding on to that % share to IMMEDIATELY pull it out
As someone who worked at an office with a coffee machine, there are days of arguments around the coffee machine I can think of. (Looking at you guy who always put two pots worth of coffee grounds into a single pot making some kind of insanely bitter jet fuel)
I'm sorry, but don't like to drink coffee tea.
"You mean besides the time you had to have 51% of the company when we started it?" DAMN that got very real very quickly. 🙄
As someone who has been driving semi for over half a decade, autonomous semi trucks don't have to be that good to be better than the average. I have seen so many careless drivers, even in my own yard I work out of where we have a very good safety record. I truly believe it will come sooner than anybody anticipates.
I’ll be honest I really liked the loosely structured 5 hour wan shows. I drive around a ton week to week and having this to listen to in the car is great!
There was a recent scandal in TrackMania as well, where in some areas keyboard controls are vastly superior to controllers, but in other areas controllers win. The reason is keyboard is a 100% or 0% input for steering, which you modulate with frequency of pushing the button, while a controller is an analog scale from 0-100%.
Traditionally some pro players play on keyboard, but also have a controller plugged in, which they only use when they reach those areas where an analog % input is advantageous.
Recently, some keyboards can be programmed in a way that a certain key registers to the OS (therefore to the game), as if it was an analog input, for example 35% right input.
This way the players could still have the advantage of normal keyboard inputs, but they could even be better than controllers, because they could jump instantly to the desired analog value instead of moving the joystick.
The developers had to do a long review and decided that going forward this will be considered cheating. Kinda wild how even simple racing games are susceptible to this. The whole appeal of TM is you only need 4 buttons to play it, and the physics is perfectly deterministic so you can race to the millisecond.
2:41:28 “I just need anything that vibrates”.... Well that's not going to be taken out of context 😅
I agree, I was like this is just bodycam until the flashlight, it just gives it away.
Then after seeing it really is a video game footage, you see all the other tells.
Hopefully there will always be WanShow Operator DAN! ❤
Hell, Id watch a DAN show!
@@MadLadenstein I like him more interacting with people being a savage! lol
@@costafilh0 thats kinda how I imagined it. a primarily Dan hosted show with one other person. I bet he'd make a great interviewer for guest interviews too.
Linus, my pistol flashlight is just about exactly like that. The only thing i can really se wrong with the flashlight is the reflections from the stairs and railing is way to much.
Doubtful mate, considering you are magnifying through a lens which is nothing like the shape of a perfect circle with a nicely smooth 25% gradient throughout with no artifacts or defects, no leaks, nothing its perfect - and so is the wall.
Maybe we have better eyesight lol. I saw it like a hole in a gastank.
@@DailyCorvid You can doubt as much as you like, go out and try some better tactical and other higher end lights as i have used for years and you will figure out fairly fast that the light cone itself is not what is necessaraly "wrong". My Lumintop EDC05, and a random Massdrop light i have comes really close, while my Lenlenser P7r and old T7 comes fairy close with my Streamlight TLR-1 HL not too far behind if i take off the can om my 416. Thou the TLR does have some "sqaring" of the hotspot if you get close to the wall.
What IS wrong is the reflection on the stairs and railing in the dark bit, and there is not enough light bounce from the flashlight making the contrast between the dark and flashlight illuminated part of the room way to high. I also noticed some pixelated shadows in the same area while pixelpeaping, but i would never have seen that without pausing. The barrel smoke effects thou, is... not great.
I love “sports ball” guy. He always announces himself as the unicorn that doesn’t watch sports.
Linus and Luke, I always watch WAN show on Sunday afternoon due to my schedule, so this comment may never even get seen… Nonetheless, I love the show! I never comment on videos, but i couldn’t resist this time.
BUY THE GR COROLLA!
I preordered mine, drove over 600 miles to get it, and paid dealership scalping price over MSRP, but it was all worth it. It makes me smile every time I get in it! To Luke, it’s my daily driver/commuter car so it gets 100 miles a day. I wouldn’t dream of buying such a fun car to never enjoy it!
Y’all keep doing great work,
CW
To remark about the new format, I like it. I have found myself watching the whole WAN show a whole lot more recently where I hadn't been watching much at all before.
I always have it playing in the background, in a pic-in-pic window and get on with my day....
Then the next day watch it full screen when I am chilling at the weekend :)
Best part of the internet = WAN Fridays.
Nintendo didn't lose any money. Its money they didn't make. To say Nintendo lost money to team executor assumes that every sale that executor made would have been made via Nintendo.
Loving the way merch messages get shown/are interacted with.
You can always count on the wife for completely destroying you 🤣😂 Love it. So typical 😅
You can tell society is going off the rails when law becomes its most ruthless in the defence of money. I'll always remember MAX HEADROOM, and Edison Carter's boss getting a call to help stave off an arrest, to which is boss responds "Credit fraud? My god that's worse than murder."
If you look, governments class tax evasion as a greater crime than murder, ( murder by government is a pat on the head ). If it is assassinating someone in government, OK that is worse, ( unless their opposition gets in but even then they will still prosecute as they want to discourage it happening to them ).
And that video of the Blip Vert victim is brutal. ( porridge explosion )
@@alanhilder1883 Isn't it.. lol
What is this, a wan show for ants? It needs to be.... At least.... 3 times longer!
in the second half of the Unrecorded proof video, they show some 4K screenshots. The high resolution without the camera movement hiding some stuff makes it easier to see the video game look.
Had no idea you guys had changed anything. The conversation seemed structured but natural! Well done boys and well done WAN team, keep it up!
Length of WAN show: what goes up must come down I guess 😢 Still super amazing, thanks for all your content each week 😊
Dude, people used to be mind blown by 3 hour WAN shows :D
Might have stuff they need to do and don't have time to do it longer this WAN show
I literally mowed the whole yard while listening to this. Now i just need that automated mower so i can give myself some legit nightmares
Watch your show and appreciate the time and effort you guys put in to make a awesome show. Thanks for the content and the now new excellent Hoodie I purchased at your merch store. All of them pockets and the color combination is the best. I know it’s almost summer but hey, never know when ya might need it 😅thanks for your content😎👊you guys are awesome🤜🤛 53:47
Maybe instead of banning cheaters, just put them in a separate matchmaking lobby so they will only play against other cheaters.
Most peopl cheat to get an advantage that their opponents don't have. It stops being cheating if everybody's doing it and it's officially allowed.
@@Ryuu44 thats the point
That's how it works in From Software's games (Dark Souls and Elden Ring, not sure about Bloodborne). You get "softbanned" which means that you will only be able see and play with other players who are also softbanned.
I wish I was recording my reaction when Yvonne came in with the tidbit about the "51% of the company." Absolutely savage. 👑
and thats the true rapid fire merch msg every msg is responded with lol then on to the next one from then onward xD
Hey Luke, why don't you add an auto split feature to the incoming merch messages so that at the end Dan can click a button for either 2 or 3 columns, then the page can split to like "Curated | 1 | 2 | 3".
Then once that works next steps would be even out every so often when Dan has answered 6 and linus has answered 1 as a example. And to let someone focus one column so you can see just what you're replying to, yours + curated, or all columns
Also the support option should be something you guys can click too, so if someone hasn't done as I imagine is likely you can just say "I don't know we'll get someone to find out for you" generate ticket
The gameplay trailer seems to be using entirely precalculated lighting, hence why it looks so good, but any dynamic elements like the flashlight or enemies don't hold up so well.
Right at the end it's extremely evident that the enemies aren't casting the proper shadows you'd expect for example.
The flashlight also doesn't create any ambient light. Light should bounce off walls and light up the area outside its direct cone of light.
The game demo footage reminds of when half life 2 was first demoed, the quality jump was so apparent and this feels the same. If you follow what epic has done unreal engine 5 when they showed how its new tools could be used to enhance the level details its not that a suprise that this could be done.
I once had a flashlight that had a well-defined edge like a spotlight.
What's funny is I can tell that google is finally working on their voice assistant again ever since the rise of ChatGPT but the only way I can tell is because my voice assistant has started struggling with basic tasks like "turn on the ___ lights" where every once in a while it just ignores the ____ and turns on/off every single light in every room.
I've been using the same commands for 5 years and never had this issue before a few months ago. And with the google home you could think maybe it's hearing you wrong but it does the same thing on my phone while displaying the correct transcription of what I said.
Yvonne with the '51% of the company' moment was more savage than all of her roasts
You know what I love about LTT. It's that everyone pretty much looks like they are all at home with family instead of a work place with workers ABCDEF and so on
Regarding the Huawei/Seagate thing, it might be that refusal to ship those units to Huawei would have bankrupt them. At that stage, you have to choose between keeping good relationships with your partners or obey a ridiculous law. Also those hdds (or firmware) were not manufactured in the US, posing serious concerns for the global economy or your bottom line as a design only entity (like most American companies are today).
2:00:00 for LTX have a WAN show that streams live the entire time with hosts and guests subbing in theoufht the period. Can show off ongoing events abd such as well.
One day when Linus’ kids are asked if a skin is real and if it should be paid for it, they are going to answer, “yes, dad, it’s real, it’s digital art, someone worked on it and I’m paying for having it on my digital persona” and he is not going to have a valid comeback
The biggest endorsement of UE5 is ut being used for the mandalorian, and them shooting infrong of a tv wall instead of a green screen. Yeah there are parts lf the mandalorian that looks cgi but there is plenty you just don't notice. Seeing how it got made, thats what made me go, video games are gonna get so good, glad to see that game devs are working hard
