If youtube wants to charge for 4K then they need to give a much better bitrate.

Around 14 minutes in, the real reason he made this video. To justify shitplane's 4k premium price. He has suckered 30k people into paying for shitplane.

Yeah okay maybe I didn't think he was nuts before, but this is it. This is the moment I have to stop taking him seriously at all.

YouTube seems to already do something like this with YouTube Premium. Friend of mine mentioned that one of the music channels she listens to a lot had a noticeable difference in quality after she was gifted premium. Even confirmed it by opening the video in a private browsing session side-by-side. I wouldn't be surprised if they compress the video/audio more for non-premium users compared to premium users.

Honestly, I will never accept any bullshit about how YouTube has to paywall features and have people pay YouTube to use them because "they don't have enough money". YouTube is owned by Google, and Google is not some piss poor startup that requires donations to stay afloat. Google is worth hundreds of billions of dollars, and they make this much money by harvesting ridiculous amounts of data from you just from you using their services, to the point where they've been fined for GDPR violations a few times. They absolutely can offer 4K video and high bitrate for free, in fact, they should be morally obliged to at least do this much for how badly they violate their user's privacy. All the mongoloids in the comments saying that "b-but it costs moni for uboob to host dis" are fucking braindead and delusional, Google has more than enough money to host this shit, it's just they are so greedy that they will make you pay extra from your own pocket just to get more revenue. And I say fuck that, because they are already making enough money from me, I'm not giving them more.
 
Reddit is calling out his bullshit chart for truncating like 4 years to make it look like a spike when its been a gradual gain/plateau.

Linus has already proven to be incapable of even basic statistics. He showed a graph of views that was steadily decreasing the same rate everywhere yet he thinks that his thumbnail/title change affected the trend at this one specific point. Any statistics he presents is always misleading.

Dumb and kind-of-late question: how is putting a CPU in a server different from a ZIF socket on a desktop? I've never worked with servers before, sorry.
The only difference is server CPUs are (usually) physically larger. And the heatsinks are just solid chunks of metal without a fan; all the airflow comes from the ridiculously fast spinning chassis fans.

In other words Linus and co are retarded spergs.
 
A bit of sperging, but I think that in a few months GN or JayTwoCents(maybe) will began to have LTT number in view numbers or even surpassing them

I remember a few months ago where GN usually got about 1/3 to 1/2 total views in good videos when comparing to LTT, nowadays they are getting about 1/2 of it in most videos and in some videos(the ones that blows up) they are having LTT numbers of viewes.

I don't think Linus is incapable. It is intentionally misleading.

Some server CPUs didn’t have things to prevent putting them in backwards but that’s mostly been fixed.

It’s likely that a misattached cooler let the cpu fry itself but who knows. Server equipment often assumes you know what the hell you’re doing and so may have fewer safeties.

You have to be a bit self-gaslighting to live in Vancouver and still unironically believe you're in The Bestest Most Liveablest City This Side Of The Andromeda Galaxy. It's like being a Scientologist, basically. The mindset inevitably rubs off into his publically released material, it's nauseatingly obvious seeing it once you've lived there a while.

This makes me happy. GN is sort of a sperg but I'd much prefer watching a vid of his than anything LTT cranks out.

Btw, I manage a lot of servers at work (leading brand, approx $160k each). In recent years quality has been pretty bad. In the last batch of 8 that we bought, 2 of them had immediate issues, as in completely unusable, RMA'd the entire unit. And we've had pretty consistent issues with failing DIMMs, bad SD cards, weird transient glitches throwing errors, etc. I'm generally putting in at least 1 ticket a month getting shit replaced. So yeah Linus and crew are kinda tarded but it's believable that a brand new expensive server could shit itself. Chip crisis has been nuts, yo.
 
He also doesn't have a single black person on staff

I was wrong, there was a single one all the way at the bottom.

Whatever a "fit technician" is:

They hired a "fit technician" to fuck Anthony when he loses weight. Unfortunately this position was earmarked to be a diversity hire so this nigger isn't enough to make Anthony put down the Cheetos

Steven has his own pathologies. The Thermaltake and Gibabyte videos were hard to get through.

The Thermaltake video dealt with how they used percentages with Celsius vs. Kelvin, and the portion of the Gigabyte exploding PSUs bitched about different parts being used in the same design. Steve tries to be smart, but he's like that smug tard that believes he found the 'AH HA!' moment only to embarrass himself.

I do believe he is earnest, but damn man. Consult a REAL expert.

No. YouTube doesn't make enough money from ad intrusions to pay for even serving 720p video. Those behind (((Google))) pay for YouTube because it controls what humans see. They couldn't care less if it makes money.

If retards are stupid enough to pay them, that's just cool free money to them.

If you live within range of SkyTrain, it's not terrible. But yeah, regular folks who have to rent anywhere near the center of Vancouver have it bad.
