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.
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.
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 🤷♂️
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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...
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.
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.
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...
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 👋
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.
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
@@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 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)
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
For the SpaceX thing... I work as a researcher at an engineering firm. No one that knows what they're talking about talks shit on Twitter, because that's a dumb thing to do if you want to continue being liked in your field. People know each other, and word gets around... also, actual experts understand how hard that stuff is and know they'll make their own mistakes
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
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.
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.
2:48:20 - 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.
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.
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!

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 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!
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.
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.
@@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.
As someone who watches the WAN show weekly but can never catch the live stream: the structured format is a huge W. I can't find the time in a day to sit through 2-5 hours worth of content in one sitting, so it usually takes me a good while to finish a full stream. It's a lot easier to stop a video when topics flow more consistently, especially when there's a kiddo around. 😊
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)

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.

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....
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 )
A mechanic that rewards helping wounded enemies and punishes illegal acts would be sick. For instance you could get less support in streaks and slower special recharge for killing downed enemies or hurting civilians Edit: Luke literally just said the same thing right after I typed this
the only maybe concerning thing about the "Bodycam" game ist the fact. That this Building he is walking through was the original Demo Video from the company who is doing these Megascans of real objects. So the question is will there be more levels or textures with that high quality
They could just keep scanning real locations (plenty of abandoned buildings, offices, woods, houses, ...) but it would definitely limit level design intent. Then again, maybe it's actually better if the environment are quite literally realistic, not "designed"? Also, not looking forward to a 1TB install size lol :P
@@JanTuts Yeah we definitely need a way to load the leves over the internet instead of having them installed locally (a bit like MSFS, but without the luxury of being able to reuse assets so much)
If I were a game dev CEO I's say target a maximum of 100 Gb of total game file size and have the rest via streaming to have a good balance and have no need for either a ton of storage or a lot of internet bandwith.
Hi Luke, Dan & the other guy whose name I forget ... Interesting show today usual. I agree with you on 2 things today: (1) The Gary Bowser issue just seems inequitable, yes he has aided in the commiting of a crime and was paid for it but he isnt the one who earned the profits and the scope of the punishment absolutely is cruel and unusual; and (2) Alcohol on company expenses - this was one i pondered prior to being a financial controller, after i always fell on the side of no except for exceptional circumstances (wedding, birth, etc) and maybe for an annual dinner because as you mentioned the possibility of liability falling back on the company and its officer's. Always fall back on a company do with an open bar, say, that a person gets hammered at and then drives home and gets into an accident ... that's a mess that you must avoid as a responsible company officer.
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.
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
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.
That game demo looks fairly consistent with other UE5 content we've seen. It's extremely realistic but there are SO MANY things that make it obviously rendered. It worries me so many people have failed to notice that even when it has been pointed out
2:51:49 Hey it might never die, but it might get greedy too xD My Accord was guzzling oil at 1 quart per 100 miles. Still drove perfectly fine. Very likely wouldn't pass emissions. But it ran and drove. I even would forget to add oil for a month, and it would get misfires at high RPMs, and sometimes even went into limp mode from oil starvation to the bearings and stuff. Add oil, clear the codes, and it ran fine again. I used that car as a beater for the last year I owned it, cause it developed a bunch of problems. Paid just over $1.1k for it back in 2019 at 213k miles. It used to consume 1 quart every 3.5k miles (So a bit over average, but not anywhere near what I got it to xD). Lasted 3.5 years, and honestly could've continued to drive longer. I considered selling it for cheap so someone could take it to Mexico or somewhere in the US that doesn't do emissions testing. So long as they could spare 25 extra bucks a month for oil, it would continue to drive. But I just junked it, cause that was way easier.
The oil consumption problem started after the distributor died. Thinking the ICM died, based off of someone's input. I stupidly tried starting it so much, it was as if the engine was running dry for a minute or something. Replaced the distributor, and it ran perfectly fine again, besides the oil consumption. Also all of those starting attempts ran a ton of gas through to the cat converter. Burnt it out. Replaced it with a cheap 70 buck one off Ebay, and a 15 dollar cheap O2 sensor, to get rid of the exhaust smell, and to get rid of the O2 code. Again, ran fine after that. But VERY unlikely to pass emissions xD New car has ignition coils. So that'll prevent any prolonged starting attempts from happening again. But it could still allow unburnt gas to reach the cat. So as soon as I get one of those codes, I'll replace all four.
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
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
45:01 Am i the only one who noticed the pain in Luke’s eyes when linus showed on stream the merch messages per min 😅😅 For anyone wondering why , linus just publicly (for 600k viewers) revealed a pretty accurate estimate of the company’s sales figures (3 to 4 sales per min , is about 1,5 to 2 million sales per year) at a average price of 20$ per sale, and the industry standard 30+% of which are profit ( 6+$ for the 20$ sale) meaning that they make from 9 to 12 million dollars per year on merch alone Note: i know that there was increased traffic because of the wan show being live, but these are merch massages not sales , and for the calculations i assumed an average of 20$ which is an underestimate ass their most successful products are the water bottle, screwdriver and backpack which sell for 30$ , 70$ and 250$
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
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).
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
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.
Watching Linus talk about how flashlights dont have such a well defined circle on the edge... then picking up my $20 Anker LED light that looks identical to the light in the video...hes never used a good flashlight has he?
There is a difference between what you with your actual eyes would see (bright circle makes everything around it dark for you) and what a camera would record (bright circle would also illuminate the room more).
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.
I never ever comment on youtube videos, but I tune in and watch / listen to WAN show every week. I love that it's more structured in the front half and off the rails after dark. Keep the good work y'all!

good work brother
Thx a lot
doing gods work
Thank you very much for filling in the gap that Noki left us.
@@Andrewligan there's a huge gap between 2:07:09 and 2:51:37
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.
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.
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
Thanks to the timestamp guy for his service.
That doesn't exist here. Stfu

@@jeremycorbett9085 now even i can't find it 😂
Zero timestamps …
@@jeremycorbett9085 OG timestamp guy retired a few weeks back. He posted on the subreddit that he didn't have the time anymore.
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.
Nowdays I am literally interested in NOT SKIPPING the sponsors spots due to Denis's creativity.. this guy is something else. 😂
Same, I’ve yet to not get a chuckle out of each of them. Kudos, Dennis.
Nois
Dennis sponsor spots are fantastic!
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
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.
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!!
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.
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
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

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?😅
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.
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...

@@mrtriathlondude cinema history was made
I think the free flowing conversation is what makes you guys unique and entertaining. The Chaos adds to the fun and we learn about the news to boot!
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 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.

@@feltedsneed you clearly dont know people
@@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.

Try again. Try to say something less condescending next time.
His fine is almost as much as Seagates

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)
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.
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.
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.
Good to have a job that lets you lol
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
"After dark" is better now, when we can see you again, and not only as shadows as it was for a few times.
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,

I love the huge WAN shows.
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.
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

Man Yvonne really holding on to that % share to IMMEDIATELY pull it out
@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 wish I was recording my reaction when Yvonne came in with the tidbit about the "51% of the company." Absolutely savage. 👑
For the SpaceX thing... I work as a researcher at an engineering firm. No one that knows what they're talking about talks shit on Twitter, because that's a dumb thing to do if you want to continue being liked in your field. People know each other, and word gets around... also, actual experts understand how hard that stuff is and know they'll make their own mistakes
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
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.
Awwww down to under 4 hours. Oh well. The wan show is love. The wan show is life.

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.
2:41:28 “I just need anything that vibrates”.... Well that's not going to be taken out of context 😅
A kitchen drill? made me laugh real good
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.
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.
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!

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 love “sports ball” guy. He always announces himself as the unicorn that doesn’t watch sports.
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!
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.
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.

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.
As someone who watches the WAN show weekly but can never catch the live stream: the structured format is a huge W.
I can't find the time in a day to sit through 2-5 hours worth of content in one sitting, so it usually takes me a good while to finish a full stream. It's a lot easier to stop a video when topics flow more consistently, especially when there's a kiddo around. 😊
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)

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!

3:29:30 - ok I thought the video was buffering.
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....
As someone who fixes broken down houses, those textures on the dirt and debris are comfortably uncanny valley.
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
A mechanic that rewards helping wounded enemies and punishes illegal acts would be sick.
For instance you could get less support in streaks and slower special recharge for killing downed enemies or hurting civilians
Edit: Luke literally just said the same thing right after I typed this
the only maybe concerning thing about the "Bodycam" game ist the fact. That this Building he is walking through was the original Demo Video from the company who is doing these Megascans of real objects. So the question is will there be more levels or textures with that high quality
They could just keep scanning real locations (plenty of abandoned buildings, offices, woods, houses, ...) but it would definitely limit level design intent. Then again, maybe it's actually better if the environment are quite literally realistic, not "designed"?
Also, not looking forward to a 1TB install size lol :P
@@JanTuts Yeah we definitely need a way to load the leves over the internet instead of having them installed locally (a bit like MSFS, but without the luxury of being able to reuse assets so much)
@@twandepan Not everyone has that fat a pipe. Thats one part of the reason game streaming hasn't taken off yet.
@@milamber319 sadly yes
If I were a game dev CEO I's say target a maximum of 100 Gb of total game file size and have the rest via streaming to have a good balance and have no need for either a ton of storage or a lot of internet bandwith.
Hi Luke, Dan & the other guy whose name I forget ...
Interesting show today usual. I agree with you on 2 things today:
(1) The Gary Bowser issue just seems inequitable, yes he has aided in the commiting of a crime and was paid for it but he isnt the one who earned the profits and the scope of the punishment absolutely is cruel and unusual; and
(2) Alcohol on company expenses - this was one i pondered prior to being a financial controller, after i always fell on the side of no except for exceptional circumstances (wedding, birth, etc) and maybe for an annual dinner because as you mentioned the possibility of liability falling back on the company and its officer's. Always fall back on a company do with an open bar, say, that a person gets hammered at and then drives home and gets into an accident ... that's a mess that you must avoid as a responsible company officer.
What is this, a wan show for ants? It needs to be.... At least.... 3 times longer!
"You mean besides the time you had to have 51% of the company when we started it?" DAMN that got very real very quickly. 🙄
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.
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
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.
The more structured format is good. It reminds me of old WAN from the couch.
That game demo looks fairly consistent with other UE5 content we've seen.
It's extremely realistic but there are SO MANY things that make it obviously rendered.
It worries me so many people have failed to notice that even when it has been pointed out
2:51:49 Hey it might never die, but it might get greedy too xD
My Accord was guzzling oil at 1 quart per 100 miles. Still drove perfectly fine. Very likely wouldn't pass emissions. But it ran and drove.
I even would forget to add oil for a month, and it would get misfires at high RPMs, and sometimes even went into limp mode from oil starvation to the bearings and stuff. Add oil, clear the codes, and it ran fine again.
I used that car as a beater for the last year I owned it, cause it developed a bunch of problems. Paid just over $1.1k for it back in 2019 at 213k miles. It used to consume 1 quart every 3.5k miles (So a bit over average, but not anywhere near what I got it to xD). Lasted 3.5 years, and honestly could've continued to drive longer. I considered selling it for cheap so someone could take it to Mexico or somewhere in the US that doesn't do emissions testing. So long as they could spare 25 extra bucks a month for oil, it would continue to drive. But I just junked it, cause that was way easier.
The oil consumption problem started after the distributor died. Thinking the ICM died, based off of someone's input.
I stupidly tried starting it so much, it was as if the engine was running dry for a minute or something. Replaced the distributor, and it ran perfectly fine again, besides the oil consumption.
Also all of those starting attempts ran a ton of gas through to the cat converter. Burnt it out. Replaced it with a cheap 70 buck one off Ebay, and a 15 dollar cheap O2 sensor, to get rid of the exhaust smell, and to get rid of the O2 code. Again, ran fine after that. But VERY unlikely to pass emissions xD
New car has ignition coils. So that'll prevent any prolonged starting attempts from happening again. But it could still allow unburnt gas to reach the cat. So as soon as I get one of those codes, I'll replace all four.
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
linus out here proving he knows literally nothing about actual GOOD flashlights lol
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
Mage Quit looks super fun. Might try it with friends soon
45:01 Am i the only one who noticed the pain in Luke’s eyes when linus showed on stream the merch messages per min 😅😅
For anyone wondering why , linus just publicly (for 600k viewers) revealed a pretty accurate estimate of the company’s sales figures (3 to 4 sales per min , is about 1,5 to 2 million sales per year) at a average price of 20$ per sale, and the industry standard 30+% of which are profit ( 6+$ for the 20$ sale) meaning that they make from 9 to 12 million dollars per year on merch alone
Note: i know that there was increased traffic because of the wan show being live, but these are merch massages not sales , and for the calculations i assumed an average of 20$ which is an underestimate ass their most successful products are the water bottle, screwdriver and backpack which sell for 30$ , 70$ and 250$
Linus has talked in the past about exactly how many merch messages they get a show - I feel like this isn’t really why Luke was cringing.
You don't think the amount of sales increase dramatically when it's a WAN Show?
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 incredible difference in punishment between individuals and companies is too much.
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).
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
"You can have a Go XLR!"

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.
2:27:27 DAN, YOU SAVAGE! You can't just tell em the truth like that hahahahahaha
Watching Linus talk about how flashlights dont have such a well defined circle on the edge... then picking up my $20 Anker LED light that looks identical to the light in the video...hes never used a good flashlight has he?
There is a difference between what you with your actual eyes would see (bright circle makes everything around it dark for you) and what a camera would record (bright circle would also illuminate the room more).
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.
