      You need to rant more about how Google is just damn broken. Not only the "Superchats" that aren't even remotely super, but also the massive lag in CC auto generation. They're still not up almost a week later... The Time Stamp Guy gets his job done in a few minutes, how can a fricken algorithm not get its done in a week?

      On the subject of 10 points of good videos, which came from talking about Linus' management style, which is a bit like Steve Jobs, "just go do it", style, what I'd say is everyone has an ego. Everyone wants to do it their way, but to be a team you have to have a central view. If we don't put our ego aside to go with the collective flow, we have chaos. It's not always easy to do that, especially when you have good skills, but it needs to happen for a singular direction.

    Literally like 2 weeks ago I used your HDMI cable testing information to convince my boss that we, as an AV integrator, should use properly tested and certified cables rather than random cables from amazon. AND IT WAS LITERALLY THE SAME PRICE! I was trying to say this for almost a year at that point and had ran into SEVERAL issues with crappy cables, but it took your excel graph to get my boss and the CEO onboard.

    • @szirsp
      @szirsp Před rokem +3

      I think this illustrates why there should be legislation that requires corporations (that sell products at a certain scale) to have "certified engineers" who will blow the whistle on anti consumer behavior.
      (In the licensure talk 2:15:40) If it seems that corporations will just do bad things and not hire good people who would prevent that that's a sign that something should force them to change this behavior, probably more/stricter pro environment and pro consumer laws.
      (This could also help against corporation replacing every engineer, software developer with immoral AI...)

    Would be so easy for discord to just continue support for both username types
    1: choose a username
    2: [optional] choose a handle
    Case #1 (no handle)
    Auto generate a unique handle through the old system.
    Case #2 (with specific handle)
    Try to use said handle
    Case #3 (already registered and want the new system)
    Change handle within the account

    • @Trixless
      @Trixless Před rokem +4

      Yes that would be great, and with no handle you cant be searched, Since discord is a pretty private messaging application. Direct dms, calls, private groupchats. handles make it more of a social media but theres no account frontpage to 'tweet' 'update' ppl on.
      But those that choose to get an @ handle can be searched without needing the numbers

  • @SylvieTheBagel
    @SylvieTheBagel Před rokem +301

    I think the original point of the numbers was it ensured privacy. If you remember a name, you also have to remember the number. It was great, people couldn’t just message people if they knew a username from a different platform. And ya, it did fix username camping.
    And it’s been undone completely. Fuck you discord.

    • @sirmonkey1985
      @sirmonkey1985 Před rokem +3

      as long as visible usernames continue to be tied to each server it should still work the same way since they'd need to know your primary username to message you. knowing the numbers just allowed you to get around that part.

    • @poochyenarulez

    Linus may not see this but I'm gonna leave this here anyway:
    I have a solution for that "CZcams app not supporting stories" problem. Always make sure you open YT app in portrait mode i.e. on the smaller display. The reason stories disappear on the landscape display is because most Google apps seem to adapt to either the phone mode or tablet mode depending on the aspect ratio of the window it is opened in. For example: I own a Samsung Galaxy Tab A. I too get the tablet version of YT if I open it normally. However if I open it as a pop up window in portrait mode, the app completely changes and shows me the better phone version of YT.
    Hope this helps! ✌️

    The thing with Biofire's smart gun is apparently that it is the first smart gun that's made to be smart from the ground up. Every other smart gun were just normal guns with smart features added to them, hence you could circumvent them with a magnet.
    Having problems to fire at a prototype stage is normal with every single new gun that is in development. Weapon manufacturing isn't just simple as making a gun and it just works.

    As a pure Teamspeak user for voice chat till this day, getting into Discord 5 years ago was hell. And I still struggle with the management interface daily. Especially the one given in the app. So many things are so many levels down that it just isn't a fluent work experience. Not gonna say that setting up a Teamspeak server with rights, auto-afk, no-chat channels and all that stuff is easy. But damn, nothing was intuitive when getting into Discord. I got used to it, but once you add bots it starts to become a whole other mess. The lack of features that should be basic (like auto delete) Discord is still not my go-to.

      I've had a Discord account since the early days, but never really liked the service if I'll be honest. I pretty much only use it to chat with a handful of friends because they prefer it.
      I vastly prefer self-hosted Mumble for voice comms, for privacy reasons - and I'll likely never use Discord for that.
      It's also moved a lot of things that in the days of yore would've been on searchable forums or wikis to what's basically invite-only modern hipster IRC, making a lot of info hard to find, difficult to search, and easy for a rogue/bored mod to nuke out of existence. I absolute hate that, tbh.

    He's also dealt with the Armatix Smart Gun, which is probably what you're thinking of
    The Biofire gun is fundamentally different to the others, as it was built from the ground up as a smart gun using a new operating mechanism and electronic interlocks to prevent firing vs previous mechanisms that locked out a conventional Browning tilting barrel mechanisms

    Hey, a few quick comments about BioFire (from an American whose two favorite subjects are firearms and tech)
    Yes, so-called "smart firearms" have been around for a while, the difference being is that those are almost always *conversion kits* for existing guns, whereas this one is an original design. With what I've seen from their material, it's marketed towards people who may have others in the home who should not have access to the gun. Failure to fire when it needs to is bad, but the idea behind the design is to never fire unless you know the correct user is holding it… this design is one of the most effective I've personally seen, yet still has so many issues with user confirmation.
    As far as American gun owners boycotting previous "smart" guns, there was a law passed in New Jersey that said (super TLDR) as soon as a commercially viable smart handgun was sold, "non-smart" handguns would become illegal to sell in the state 3 years after that epoch. That was a big reason why gun owners boycotted them in the past, and also because there isn't a massive market for that tech to begin with.
    Most smart guns that have existed are either remarkably unreliable as a firearm (possibly the fate of BioFire) or remarkably unreliable as a safety feature (almost all the others I can think of). Either way, if the tech does advance, eventually someone is going to be hurt (or worse) as a result of one of those two functions failing because the user was relying more heavily on a LiDAR camera than on gun safety as a whole. /rant over

    I wish more social platforms utilized usernames the same way Steam does. Where you have your account's personal username, and then a Display Name over that that other people see you as in games/online. That makes it so you can change what people see you as at any time, for an unlimited amount of times, as well as having your name be anything you want (within the guidelines obviously). That way, people wouldn't have to worry about a name they wanna be known by being already taken

    The Thorim rings look great, I actually went and researched them a while back. My big issue with them is that they are a bit pricy, which in itself isn't a problem, the problem comes from the value. With a gold or silver ring I know that if let's say I wanted or needed to get rid of it that I can take it to a jeweler and get X amount of money back, we know the value of gold/silver, so it's easy to determine if this $3000 ring is actually "worth" it or not. With the Thorum rings on the other hand there is no way to put a objective value on the rings, so it's really difficult to figure out if they are worth it or not. Which really sucks because some of the rings look amazing.

    Discord removing numbers just backwards..... It's so much easier to find who you're looking for with those numbers because there can't be anyone similar to it ! What did cause issues however is when people use custom fonts and wingdings in their name. Remove that functionality when searching usernames, but keep customisation only a visual thing on servers (because i believe in the right to customize) but it makes searches reeaaaal hard.

      Linus and Luke should get other people to replace them and continue the show after they're done so that we can get a 6 hours livestream. They can have a live talklinked, for example.

    Back when I still played World of Warcraft in the WotLK days, I had a full raid ready heal druid and was main healer in the biggest guild on the server. I went out of my way to farm the old level 60 Tier 1 shoulder pads and wore them to level 80 raids. They were terrible stat wise but I loved their look so I wore them. Nobody ever died because I couldn't heal them fast enough due to that smidge of power I was missing on my shoulders. But I looked sick in the celebration screenshots. They eventually added transmogrification to do that sort of thing officially without losing power, but I didn't care before that, I just wanted to look cool, healing power be damned. This was 2009 ish. How time flies...

    My theory on Discord is that they might think about switching to matrix as protocol which uses the same style identifiers. So they switch identifiers to make an potential switch easier

    Selling gaming laptops is not the same as selling "consoles". The reason why most of them stayed away was not just due to steep competition in this space (basically Nintendo) but what people expect in terms of after sale care from them. With a laptop is quire simple and channels they have in place can deal with that, including repair.
    However, it's only recently that making a console like gaming laptop became a thing, reason why some of them will start dipping their toes in the space as software/games and lack thereof is no longer an issue.
    Basically Steam has changed the game.

    Discord is trying to become "the new internet" or something. Personally I find the app extremely bloated/ flashy while simultaneously having too little customization (comparing to web browser or custom website).
    It's also inferior to a custom forum, hosted on own server. And inferior for voice comms.... no channel commander. It's only redeeming quality is resistance to ddos attacks

    I really don't understand Discord with this change. The fact you didn't have to come up with some stupid variation of the name you actually wanted was great. If they are going through with this the least the can do is allow us to use spaces in our username. That way we can give ourselves first and last names without it looking goofy.

    • @GuyGamer1
      @GuyGamer1 Před rokem

      Man, none of you actually understand the change. You can use whatever name you want as your display name. It's only what you log in with that needs to be unique.
