who's ready for fresh youtuber drama I normally like digital foundry but this is a really lame reaction from alex here. Why is he going into the mentions of other youtubers just to defend Nvidia? And Steve is right that this artifact was visible in normal gameplay. So it's fair game to make a thumbnail that points it out and then asks "does this matter."

Battaglia did find such artifacts, but seems to be saying here that HWUB is being "unfair" by making it seem like it's a lot more obvious than he thinks it should be, based on his review. it's... very defensive, and seems inappropriate

I mean his name is Alex Battle-All-Y'all and he has a giant rad looking scar on his face. Just let the guy keep zooming in on these videos

The coming at the king and missing part is funny, but the apology statement itself also kinda sucks. "We're sorry our guy said inflammatory and incorrect things about someone else's understanding of an issue, we regret what they said and how they said it" isn't really an apology for saying factually wrong things about the issue itself, or an acknowledgement that the insulted party was actually correct about a claim, except in the most oblique and evasive sense possible. Seems like an invitation to GN to clown on them again once they acknowledge the comment. e: not really worth linking the tweets, but GN has said apology accepted so I guess I'm wrong about further clowning. eviltastic fucked around with this message at 22:07 on Oct 13, 2022 |

He was kinda right there but this is a big swing and a miss here.

Because DF gets paid by nvidia to promote their poo poo. And probably every other company. They've done a lot of shilling for DLSS3 despite it clearly looking like trash and the fact that latency increases are generally completely unacceptable. I will say that MSFS is probably the singular game where DLSS3 makes sense, but that's not even a GPU thing. It's because it's such a complete pile of poo poo that it's CPU bound for no good reason.

there was more to the discussion than that along with JG adding in contents of communications to nvidia (wiring diagram for the sense pins) into the public while steve was telling to contact him privately there was a lot of venting going on as he had been talking with nvidia to make custom cables for ~9 months and they were giving him the spec not the diagram for their unique cables.. which.. fair?

That is fair. But as a rep of a company on discord, you can’t go disparaging individuals or other companies in a way that is visibly public. And that’s the issue here, not that johnnyGURU disagreed with Steve.

Steve won't gently caress you unless your PC benchmarks well and doesn't use a power supply that is a fire risk. But I guarantee he'll start doing schlieren imaging testing of your PC in the afterglow.

I seriously doubt anyone who cared to know where he lives had trouble finding out his home address anyway. People need to stop acting like it's a big deal, if you are a youtuber with over maybe 100k subs and people ever know your real name, your home address is going to be found out by some curious people, and then the worst people are going to make an effort to get it from them and it's all over.

There are absolutely people in the border zone who are stupid enough to do weird poo poo like show up at his house unannounced to try to get an autograph or send him poo poo in the mail if they see his home address but wouldn't go as far as doxx him for it. The more public you make your personal information, the more chances some weird idiot is going to do something stupid with it. I'm sure linus especially doesn't want random fans approaching his children.

Shipon posted:i mean he was objectively wrong in this situation plus he was running his mouth off The sense pin magic told in the GN youtube video looks like bullshit to me too as it would require far more complex parts in the GPU power management and in the passive adapter. I concour that he could have worded it better but discord doesn't like long worded posts so it doesn't encourage those kind of posting.

Computer chips have been able to determine and control their own power usage envelopes for quite a while now (see AMD's PPT for instance). And it's no rocket science to sense whether there's voltage on specific wires. Because that seems what the adapter does.

That's the very definition of basic streamer work-etiquette, just l ike using streamer mode in discord et cetera ad nauseum - to the point that even I know it, and I never intend to become one. Also, I'm pretty sure anyone who would've wanted to could've found his home address. There's no such a thing as anonymity online anymore, unless you never engage with anyone and only use anonymous profiles - and that's a very lonely existence, and doesn't describe any online personality.

Nothing expects your PSU will ever toss 12v down a connector that should be 5v.
