The best part about the dislike counter was from my experience is that you could basically tell straight away that a tutorial video or giveaway was fake without even watching the video. Especially considering all the comments on the fake tutorial videos were also fake
There's many popular browser plugins that bring the dislike button back and enough people use them that it works. I use "Return TH-cam Dislike" on Chrome.
@@KarlwithaC Wow, I've never heard about that plugin
being able to tell a fake movie trailer or game trailer was nice too. lots of good reasons to have it.
This reply is a fake, useless, comment. If only there were some sort of immediately visibly indicator of quality. Trololol /s
so, they can play an ad on the video if you click play.
"Dennis had three hours of professional guidance."
Then we let Dennis show off his excellent track record of hand eye coordination
😂
Why do I feel like WAN show is like a therapy session for Linus?? :D Dr Luke has a lot of patience!!
I wouldn't be surprised if it feels like that for both of them. A way to decompress and catch up at the end of the week before going home.
@@drewcipher896 that is certainly what WAN show is for me as well, win-win for everyone

"Yeah, I'll let this guy cut my hair."
He should've carved "Live, laugh, liao" on the back of Linus' head.
He would've been fired but he would leave a legend.
his hair looks great tho lol dennis know what he's doing. obviously a bunch of nerds won't like it.
You should see him trying to drive the lambo
@@korndud no, his hair looks acceptable 12 dollar haircut at best. Not terrible but considering how good Linus's hair looked a month ago this is a massive downgrade.
@@zebedeesummers4413 damn, I wish I could laugh react at your comment. People pay that much attention to his hair? 😂🤦🏽♂️
Not all bot comments are the same; stock spam bots have a series of replies by multiple bots to falsify the sense of security.

Thanks as always!
Slow news day was it... absolutely nothing relevant to consumers in this episode :-/
@@SamTheEnglishTeacher the spam thing was pretty relevant
@@akshatdubey7904 to creators mostly
I love you.
"I don't have coarse hair... unlike our sponsor" would've been the greatest segue ever.
Like our sponsor COrasair
I want to see the real hairdresser do the look he was going for after Linus grows it out again and see the comparison between what Dennis did and what the professional hairdresser does.
The cut he was going for is a textured crop and its supposed to be like 1½ to 2inch long max on top, he could get the cut today with how much length he has left on top😅
O
Make it a follow-up video and get paid twice!
Dennis is an actual GTA barber. Somehow managed to make the top look longer.
that's what she said
Timelapse:
0:00:00-2:13:00 Linus ranting
Lmaooo
Looks like you copied the timestamps from the lightning review.
i love when Linus has a bit of a rant. i love it because he genuinely cares. And i do the same about things in my life and i am just as exasperated about the lack of common sense in big companies. I wish i was in your part of the world because i would work with you in a heartbeat.
About the YT "Increased strictness" thing, I got access a few weeks back and I noticed within 2 days how crap it was.
At this time they should just employ ThioJoe as the lead dev for channel moderation
At this moment I'm convinced TH-cam partnered with a company to run spambots and they share the profits. I see no other explanation.
TH-cam not removing spambots is like Minecraft Bedrock not removing the most annoying bugs despite the java devteam removing tiniest bugs in zero days
I love the banner slowly changing position to avoid oled issues
On the subject of different characters that fool people:
it's 2022 and the default font on every single major operating system, both desktop and mobile, still has a lowercase l and an uppercase l that are nearly indistinguishable. Either give the l a curve or give the I some serifs.
I don't care about their "design vision" or anything of that sort, usability/safety is more important than looks.
That's a pretty good point
YES! YES! A THOUSAND TIMES, YES! So many times I've had to copy/paste a text string into a Notepad window just to change the font so I could tell the difference between l and I, and also between 0 and O.
"that are nearly indistinguishable" Do they actually have a difference? I legitimately thought they just used the same character. Even looking now, they look the same to me. Unless the uppercase I is slightly longer than lowercase l?
@@Bananalnc The TH-cam font has it the other way 'round, the lowercase l is actually a hair longer than the uppercase I. lIlIlIlIlIlI
@@Bananalnc Yeah the length is different.
Guys I just want to put this out there, I was pretty now well today (mentally) but all I needed to do was complete my daily dose of LTT (LMG content overall)! Thanks a-lot for all the transparency and ethics alongside amazing especially entertaining ( I mean the comedic nature). Keep it up guys.😉
TH-cam, and Google in general look like they've stopped (or dramatically reduced) using standard business metrics for improvement (things like straight-up asking customers), perhaps because they have such a huge customer base that the hard to parse feedback into meaningful changes is like drinking from a fire hose. Instead, those that have the immediate capacity for change have shifted to using a/b changes based on incomprehensible metrics that have been shoved into an insanely complex regression algorithm. It looks like they're spending insane money to develop features without a clear theme, and then looking at wildly abstract metrics for whether they're working.
If you look at hankschennel he just made a video on how flawed google's search engine currently is. It was quite a bit better 5 year ago...
@@zebedeesummers4413 Google since the drop of "Don't be Evil" ..
Power and money corrupt absolutely.
@@alexanderkinn8819 Ah yes the old "if you use a service, your criticism of that service is invalid" that's *definitely* not a garbage argument.
@@jordanmccallum1234 Nah, not meant as an argument. TH-cam has a lot of incentives not to share the whole picture with individual creators (which you rightly pointed out). One possible path for individuals would be to figure out how to get their analytics data somewhere they can actually work with it. Doesn’t excuse the situation-but does offer alternatives for folks who rely on this information to make their livelihood. Edit: deleted the last comment, apparently it seemed glib.
Super happy to see Reloptix as a sponsor. They are an amazing company that has changed my life when it comes to VR and are better quality than their competition at about the same price.
1:00:31. Linus gets a bright idea. You can tell by his face that he's going to do it when the time comes.
1:12:49 most smartlocks are woefully inadequate in terms of physical security. Lockpicking Lawyer made more than a few videos on them. Those are mostly trash-tier for security priced insanely high. The problem is many times people try their hands at security with ZERO prior knowledge.
That and what luke mentioned is why I prefer having both. One on the first and the other on the second door (and a dog.)
I can imagine a building crammed with workers in India, China or Thailand working on the best methods to scam people, working for a boss who hired them and pay them for that exact purpose.
Phillipines, their English is way better and their morals are even worse than the Chinese. There is a reason that the only two things that all east Asians can agree on are their love of rice and their hatred of the Filipinos and Indians
That is exactly what it is. Take a look at Jim Browning's channel or Mark Rober's scammer payback series. They focus mor on the phone based scammers but it's probably similar or even the same companies doing it. It'll be a company that runs a call center in a real office building and they have a small legitimate call center in front, but then hidden in the back will be a massive scam calling operation.
TH-cam hired them, sharing profits for free access to platform
A video I would love to see you do is to take a low end card like the 1630 or 1050ti and see how far back in time it would have been considered high-end.
And then see how well it can run the games from that time period and test how far you can go forward in time until you get below 60fps @ 720p.
Nice idea!
I literally use laptop version of 1050 and it is just fine at 60fps 1080p. You do not need too much for 60fps 1080p. Getting SSD will do you much better than getting better graphic card or maybe get better CPU or more/faster ram. 1080/60 have really low GPU ceiling.
@@mrmatejator In what? CS:GO?
@@mrmatejator lol in some games yeah but good luck with Tarkov, Halo Infinite, Cyberpunk 2077 etc etc.
just looked at specs and shocked , was hopeing to upgrade my 55w 1050 ti , but it about 20% slower and runnning at 75w , dam
Thank you for sharing about Technoblade. I had no idea about him before this show.
What a legend. Rest in peace young boy. 😢
I wonder if Linus would lean into the length Dennis left on top and rock a pompadour. Might make a good Yvonne reaction vid lol
If he shaved his beard that hairdo looks like the kind that says “Like a _glove!_ “ 😂 could style it up into an Ace Ventura pet detective look lol.
I don't understand what you're saying
Watch Ace Ventura lol
Yes
Ok but pompadours are sick
"So long, Nerds"
i´ve never even heard of Technoblade, but just from that kind of good bye message i kind of wish i knew him.
An idea regarding character sets: instead of trying to ban certain specific characters, which is really finicky and prone to bad errors, prevent mixing of character sets. So you are allowed to either write a channel name/user name or comments in either Farsi or Latin or simplified Chinese, but not in all of them. Than you can start dialing that in until the user barley notice it, but fake names are still prevented.
Not water tight because sometimes people mix languages, so scripts as well. Only allowing one script per "space" would be better but not perfect.
As long as you can establish that ARM can provide ballpark-comparable performance for general computing workloads, that's enough to spark tons of interest for it on the server, where what really matters is performance _per watt._ For so many use-cases, operations per clock is of no concern, nor per core, and in many cases even I/O is of minimal concern. And to determine if ARM is right for your project, you just need general profiling guidelines, like "ARM is better/worse at branching latency" or "ARM is better/worse at massive parallelism."
If ARM can cope with even just a small class of workloads passably but does it at 1/3rd the energy consumption and half the heat output, you can bet data centers will be very eager to help their customers make the switch.
Its crazy how TH-cam only has contempt and apathy for their creators. They are failing in every way when it comes to creator and audience wellbeing. The largest video hosting site has every large video spammed with scams, that unacceptable and a complete joke
Still better than a lot of other platforms though
Ever since the new comment system (that was years ago), TH-cam has shown they care very little about comments (and they've even made it harder to see comments on mobile).
I personally like that they removed the character limit. But even back then, people were pointing out that allowing links is going to be problematic, just as well as users being able to set their name to just about anything. Replies show old first and there's no way to adjust that, some channels have automatic filter but those are ridiculous. Even if you use two specific words in separate sentences, TH-cam can interpret them as a phrase. The comment just disappears and you have no idea why, you aren't even notified something was wrong with the comment.
It feels like they removed the dislike button so they can scam us out of our time on shit videos...
Half the ads are scams.
Luke is a total bro here. Everyone needs a Luke.
Fine.... Now you get me too. Already looking longer for the water bottle and now with the 4 in one Maus pad and the Jerry knife you get me anyway that I need a shipping all the way to Germany. Also I will say and pay respect to all of you as it is nice to see you grow and don't get the feel you are drifting away.
one thing TH-cam could do to deal with spammers is to put profile photos of verified channels (which tend to be bigger ones that get targeted by spammers) into a blacklist that new profile photos have to be scanned against, likely with filters that check for things like mirrored images, color filters like inversion, etc etc.
Bro you have some amazing hair
They should allow content creators to limit comments to specific language with both strict - only "alphanumerical" and extended character sets.
That would not solve the issue.
The best solution would be to limit what "new accounts" could do the stack exchange way.
A fresh account could only post comments.
After you get 100 upvotes on your comments you can post replies to comments.
After you get 1000 upvotes, you get the ability to vote
etc.
This would actually play against one of the other features, that is present in TH-cam - ability to translate comments.
Some people can understand the language well enough, but wouldn't be able to really form their thoughts with it.
So they would post in their native tongue, be it Latin or Cyrillic, or some kind of hieroglyphics written. And then others will be able to translate it via one button.
Very convenient. Also allowing others, who know that language, to understand it as well.
Contrary to using Google translate, where it might change the meaning, so neither the native speakers, nor the people who speak the same language as you, will be able to understand what was meant to be told through that comment.
TLDR: not everyone speaks English/Chinese/German/etc fluently, don't lock them in
@@waldamy I only speak two languages, Stralian ( Australian ) and gibberish ( which I speak fluently but can't understand ).
@@waldamy If the content creator wants their comments to be in English, then it should be in English, no? I don't see how commenting in other languages actually provides any value to the video.
If content creators want to support other communities, they should curate content for these languages - just like MrBeast does.
Watching this WAN for the third time👀 WAN is so addictive because it's these informative intelligent guys unfiltered 👍
51:35: "You can see who is featuring them and what size they are wearing": Holy crap, you just revolutionized the entire internet shopping experience. This is literally the most frustrating thing about shopping clothing online: I look like a Luke and yet all the models on all the other website are Dennises or Linuses at best.
Linus lowkey demonstrating the usefulness of USB C universality
My big complaint is TH-cam went Nuclear for advertisers but they won't for their content creators?
2:06:39 - My biggest problem with Sony phones is they're just not available in Canada through Sony themselves. Have to import them from the US (via a proxy mail service, they will not let you ship to a Canadian address on the US website), or from overseas (Hong Kong, China, etc). They literally pulled out from the Canadian market in 2019 and it's so frustrating. They are, as far as I can tell, making phones with decent hardware that doesn't have a notch/hole punch, or lacks a headphone jack/expandable storage. Their Xperia line of phones is basically perfect, which makes me frustrated.
Reloptix doesn't carry lenses for my Samsung VR headset, but their support team is awesome. Absolutely recommend them!
It's weird about hairdressers-- the price does not seem closely related to the quality
Yeah, unless you pay quite a silly about and come back a few times as they learn what looks good on you anything under 50$ is the same haircut. Often cheaper ones (like 10$) serve you much better if you do physical labor where you cannot adjust your haircut constantly.
My main gripe as a "user / watcher" is this:
When I see obvious spam / scam messages: I want to report them as that. But I can't because the only flippin Button I have is "report as impersonation of ME" not of Channel / user XYZ. And this is nuts. Because then I have to provide evidence and endanger myself if the claim is false. WTH TH-cam... Fix this. Let me report it as scam / impersonation and it gets flagged. Enough flags trigger hide of the comments + manual review.
Reloptics is super cool
I have 3d printed inserts that use lenses from zenni in my WMR headset, but it is a kludge
hay Linus the video grandpa meets google Brought me so much joy hope I get to see my grandpa live to that age Thank you for sharing your experiences with all of your community
Techno would be so angry that he gained 2 million subs after dying. “All I had to do was die?! DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH EFFORT I PUT INTO LIVING?!”
I can hear that quote haha
I saw someone else say he'd say "If I knew dying was so profitable, I would've died sooner!", and both of these are just so on brand.
Bot
Sad that I can hear this in his voice.
@@williamthatsmyname Damn, never knew I was the first bot to pass the Turing test.
I have found so much inconsistency with comment moderation. Sometime blocking a channel removes all their comments sometimes it doesn't. A weird thing is that instead of being held for review, spam and hate comments will be invisible to me but still post which makes them harder to moderate. Everything is broken
Even running a small channel (not this) with not enough views/subs to really mention, moderation is just as frustrating, if much smaller scale. When this all started, I never saw these comments on that channel, and now it's everywhere, so I can't hardly see my few legit comments, which is of course it's own unique problem for interaction.
when it comes to locks there is one saying I love using to remind people about why layering security is important and its "Locks only keep honest people honest."
Let creators create their own creator studio layout. There is no reason not to do that. Then they can downsize the design department, save money, release responsibility, win/win.
Locks are one situation where security by obscurity actually works.
If you have a system where someone can't figure out how to unlock your door even after gaining access to everything, you have done a good job.
Locks are probably the easiest bypassable security feature I can think of, and usually the first and only measure of defense for physical property. Obscurity? I guess since everyone has a lock on their front door. Security? Only against honest or brain-dead people.
A Good Lock is a lock that no one knows about except for you.
NO IT DOESN'T.
The only thing security by obscurity works for is LOCK MAKERS who use the obscurity to NOT IMPROVE LOCKS, and LOCK SELLERS who use the obscurity to sell you overpriced locks i can open in 2 minutes OR LESS by just buying a lock which hasn't been improved on in 100 years, taking it apart to figure out how it works, then practicing how to unlock it based on that knowledge. Knowledge i can apply to EVERY LOCK EVERYWHERE
I have never been offended to something I 100% agree with
Go watch some videos on channels like LockPickingLawyer and you will see that security through obscurity is stupid. The lock makers know these particular stuff is junk and the bad guys know the locks in question are junk but keeping that information secret just makes it harder for consumers to tell which ones are junk and which ones are worth buying.
1:41:40 Used a 1030, was miles ahead of the integrated for office work. (Upgraded to 1650 due to some very light AI-work requiring more vram.) Though if you're 2-finger typing and using a single display, this might not mean much. Also, the integrated had some weird issue with outputs turning on for sub-second while being in sleep mode. Enough for the display speakers to pop, which was annoying.
for second-hand argument: warranty. In EU, it's still a thing.
But for gaming? Yeah, you could make the argument.
The PC I bought for a specific use just won't support more wattage card than 30w (heck the power supply is only 90w) and that's even pushing things. the system is a new old stock thin client that I bought to use as an HTPC for movies and music. The onboard iGPU just wouldn't cut it, the GT 1030 allowed that system to operate how I wanted, and fit within the limitations of the system. It went from struggling to play 1080p content, to being able to easily do high bitrate UHD content.
1:45:00 Because the SteamDeck already only has 1 NAND flash package, it probably doesnt support speeds that would saturate PCIe 2x3.0 no matter if it had 4x to begin with. Which, funnily enough, the base model M2 MacBook Pro can atest to
The rockwool box is called a Bass Trap. Specifically you're best off with a rockwool 'board' as a baffle, standing waves will bouce around in there and dissipate.

Imagine seeing ads on TH-cam and not using an adblocker
The number of pre-roll ads served up by TH-cam for "Crazy new loophole that lets you earn 600 dollars per day from home" and other obvious scams is startling
It's even funnier when they advertise these get rich quick scams in dollars to me, who lives in a country that uses non-dollar currency
The new TH-cam Studio not being able to drag date ranges is the most baffling decision. Or not having the same hover to see stats on individual days.
Agreed. Get your sh*t together TH-cam and quit staring at a wall.
Yooo shouting my boy LPL. Great channel I've learned so much
1:10:28 "to make sure they don’t buy the right thing." 🤣
It’s interesting that Gmail has such an amazing spam filter (at least in my experience) but somehow TH-cam can’t seem to figure this out.
TH-cam themselves also have a wealth of additional information beyond anything viewers or creators can see. They know when the comment was made, when the account was created, which IP the account was created from, how often the user of the account logs in, how long they spend on different screens, how comments are set, which browsers they use, and on. They can also do massive comparisons across videos, across comments, and across commenting accounts. They have a A LOT more data that they could use beyond just a basic words blocklist. They have so many overpaid engineers and data scientists working on useless products that crash and burn and yet somehow this doesn’t get any attention.
Hell they could just hash the content of the comments and do velocity-based block and bans across accounts and videos. If nothing else it would reduce the volume of spam.
@@jacoboblanco1555 what is velocity based?
Linus ranting and Luke laughing during it is always gold, such a friend thing to do.
Great video as always!
Dennis is the antithesis of "Manual" XD
1:13:34 It's hard to believe that someone over at HomeAssistant or some other maker community hasn't made a DIY smart remote project. The only commercial products Harmony and Broadlink are good but flawed. I have a Broadlink and for me the app is serviceable but crap. I want a remote editor function or something so I can add dedicated On and Off commands so I can set scenes like you do with Harmony. I know the functions exist on my TV but but the buttons are not on my remote and trying to find a code set in the app that has them is tedious if they even have them
And Harmony like you said is no longer supported so at some point it's going to break and it will be useless too
One thing that could help is if TH-cam had a Partnered channel icon. So a creator (Lets use LTT) can partner with... Short Circuit, and a little icon will show next to every comment each channel makes on eachothers videos.
No icon? not legit.
It's called Bayesian filters (and other related spam trap systems) for email. We've (email administrators) been using them in email spam filtering for YEARS. TH-cam needs to get members of the GMail team involved to process the comments in EXACTLY the same way GMail is filtered. This isn't rocket science, but DOES require teaching the filtering system to recognize things that a normal human would notice pretty quickly
Love the bad cut. Keep it. Thanks for being a human that is relatable.
Love your faces. Best of luck!
Figure that the You Tube employee isn't going to rock the boat because he's probably worried about losing his fabulous paycheck.
You know, I watch this for no cost but my analytics. So, I find it worth my time to take a few minutes now and then to try to report those scam accounts in comments. I hope it helps :D. I'll report the one on this for sure ;) lol.
Every time linus get roasted he drinks water 🤣
I get your point about low end GPUs, but still bought one.
Son’s computer is small form factor case, with flex power supply, so without replacing the whole computer, RTX3050 was 100% our best option. Yes, in terms of raw FPS in games he didn’t get much of a bump from a 1650 Super, but he gained DLSS, video encode/decode performance increase, and his Blender renders are about 3 times faster.
Cheaper than replacing power supply + case + higher-end card, and will work for medium term.
Honestly it's not a badly done haircut, it just doesn't suit him as well as his go-to. Lookin' good, ish Linus! Can't wait for that CSF, Denis is a whole jam, and I'm signed up.
i've been told to not "go against the grain" ever since i started shaving in high school. i tried for a bit and dropped it. it takes a lot longer.
Thanks Linus, Luke, & Bell ✌🏻
Was actually looking yesterday at maybe picking up a deskpad, but the stealth pad still isn't there. Are there any developments or an ETA when it'll be there? Northern Lights just isn't my thing.
First of all, happy Canada Day Linus and Luke
I know a month or so ago I posted on one of your wan shows about why I still use Netflix despite higher rising subscriber cost.
But a few minutes later I got a reply saying I was shortlisted to win a free computer. The poster made me almost think it was from Linus Tech tips
Thinking it wasn't real, I did not respond. I'm sure I made the right decision
I love doing hair love my job, I also love computers, love this show, love playing flight simulators, Star citizen is a cool game. You need a new haircut. I got you fam.
😂😂😊
This must be one of those bot accounts he's talking about
I offer GamersNexus advice for his curls once and a while, bots don't have hair.
Audio only made it sound like it was destroyed, that looks pretty good for Dennis having limited training and limited time
Looks so much better
"Microsoft wants everyone in the world to use Windows"
Yep, If something is free, 'you' are the product.
You know what else is free? Linux. Freedom to build the whole system from individual parts by myself if I want to.
@@RadioactiveBlueberry This man sounds like he got paid to do an ad read in the comment section 💀
@@marcusthegamer348 No, he sounds like a dedicated part of a community (like a vegan but for tech.)
Just shave it for the memes. Could you imagine the juicy Linus memes this would create?
And you wouldn't have to wear that terrible embarrassment.
The best way to watch the Wan show is to NOT look at any live chat.

THANK YOU!!!
However the phones are really slim and comfortable in the hand, so it was fine getting used to reaching over
The Google Analytics upgrade is a similar disaster. The work coming out of Google in the last few years has been terrible. Even other important people have publically complained about it.
If you have a company with 20 pcs that needs 4 monitors per pc for whatever work. You dont go looking for used gpus.
Why not? If they are working with lots of text documents, schematics or maps, they may not need much power, but they may need many outputs.
@@jirivegner3711 Because there is a GT710/730 that costs $60 and has 4xHDMI ports.
I’ve seen low end cards like the 8400GS, 5450 and GT210 being sold for $50 from launch until finally selling out 10 years after launch. These tend to be the cheap extra ports card you see. Occasionally you’ll see a cheap NVS card or firepro for video ports on a workstation with no on board video.
You know you've got a good man beside you when he tells you your hair sucks. lol!!
Happy Canada Day!
Linus now literally looks like the Linus meth tips guy meme
VR has always been a pain wearing glasses and unusable without. Its nice someone is filling that need. (First sponsor)
it's pricey, but you can order rx add-on lenses that attach to popular VR headsets.
@@tassadarforaiur thats what i was responding to, their first sponsor sells them.
I have had about 15 cell repeaters over the years, all but one were cheap aliexpress dealies. They were all "okay" but died within a year, or slowly degraded. Even when they worked, they worked "okay" and if I walked in-to or out of the house mid call it would disconnect 50% of the time.
Bought a cell-fi after the vid. Cost literally 8 times as much, but OH MY GOD IT'S SO MUCH BETTER. IT JUST WORKS. OH MY GOD. Highly recommend.
The better thought with smart locks is, if someone wants to get into your house and you have external windows, they’re getting in.
You have my sympathy with managing spammers and trolls. I've spent whole days cleaning up comments for a channel I manage for my piano teacher. There were the same spam accounts you have as well as outright trolls and bots that had infiltrated the comment threads and ultimately ruined the real comments on the videos. When you announced that TH-cam was making changes for comment and user management, my eyes and ears perked up, but sadly this isn't working out as expected, or perhaps as well as we would expect from TH-cam.
As you noted, the hidden comments/users do not hide ASAP. I noticed that they do eventually as if TH-cam goes through a cleanup period and purges marked users and comments if you do this from within the video itself. When removing the comments and hiding users from within the creator's studio, the comment/user isn't always hidden right away if they comment as part of a thread. This, I think is the issue you have too, and this is why the spammers are difficult to remove. This may also be why they position their hack as a response to another comment rather than as a comment-thread starter.
I have a feeling that the people you've talked to about this issue know very well what you're talking about and doing the typical push back. It's frustrating for us because we know full well that they can easily click on virtually any channel and see this issue, but they don't want to bother because it's too difficult and means they actually have to do some work.
Good luck with this and I look forward to an update on any progress you may have with this issue.
It makes sense that there's a delay since content (including comments) is actually stored on multiple servers which have to sync to each other. Different content (videos, comments, like/dislike) have different priorities as well.
Obviously they still need to do a lot better, it's pretty sad when an amateur (self admitted) has made a better solution.
@@grn1 Yes it does make sense, but as an admin it's very, very painful.
Sometimes, us amateurs see through the windows and into the inside and come up with better solutions.
I'm now retired now but back in my IT and support days I was the processes and procedures guy who ended up writing up documentation for everything. This wasn't by choice and something that I had a knack at.
When it came to training the users, I would put together a quick and easy guide and it was then I found, more than once actually, better ways to do things than what was stated in the original documentation, or I stumbled upon a bug which I then reported back to the developers.
Those were fun days actually but now I'm too old to and disabled to be a worthy employee.
It's not just yt. The Spam problem is literally everywhere in every site and platform social media and beyond!
There are so many spam comments on comments about spam in this videos comment section.
It’s giving new age hipster lumberjack. Like you definitely know your way around some flannels and a 4 wheel drive, but you also know where the latest underground music craze is. It’s a twofie
Concrete mixer strike?- dang that's rough and hard
Interesting that you mentioned they're no longer allowing channels to hide subscriber count. That's not exactly 100% correct. I just checked Poppy's channel, she's had her subscriber count hidden for a long time, and it's still hidden. So I guess this doesn't apply to official artist channels?
Or maybe they haven’t rolled out the feature yet
@@ellie3859 That's a great point, I hadn't thought of that.
Hey LTT I love your videos and your channels! Just wanted to send you a real message that’s not from a bot!
Watch this comment get picked up by a bot.
I love that they are referencing the R7 240 video which is how I found this channel in the first place lol I found one of those cards in my pre built and mixed it up for a 750ti
Don't be Google... I mean evil. TH-cam wants you to use the desktop version on your phone :D
The haircut is fine, it makes Linus look younger. Not that he's that old.
You mean he looks like a school kid whose mother decided to give it a go.
@@alanhilder1883 No, I meant the words I typed.
@@even1313 do you recognise jokes?
@@alanhilder1883 I do. But posts that start like "so what you're saying is..." or "so what you mean is.." annoy the fuck out of me.
I do not find that to be a joke.
I quite like Linus' hair.
After seeing the whole thing, I think that looks pretty good tbh
I agree with you on how horrible spam has become. I was born in 1982 and remember how the Internet used to be. It seems now it is nothing but ads. It is hard to even search for legitimate information on a subject with out just getting results that are almost nothing but spam and crap Ithat just makes me mad because it wastes so much of my time trying to find what's legitimate info..... the internet is dead, if you think you are interacting with another human it actually more likely a bot.
Happy Canada Day, Linus!
