greaves1111 reacted to LinusTech in LTT Video Error Handling Standard Operating Procedure (SOP)
Internally this is a living document, and may change as we move forward, but as part of our push for further transparency, we are publishing it in its current form to help our community better-understand how we classify errors and what action we will be taking to rectify them.
Types of errors
Flubs: the host simply misspoke
Incongruencies: information within the video is not in agreement (e.g. host says “$45” while the product page shows “$47”
Bad spec: a table or MOGRT contains incorrect information (e.g. “48MB” instead of “96MB”
Bad data: a graph or visualization contains data (generated by us) that is erroneous, misplaced, or spurious.
Bad info: a statement or representation in the video that is misleading or factually inaccurate
Types of error correction
Proactive (before the video is posted)
Video pickup: the segment is re-shot with both audio and video
Human audio pickup: new audio is recorded for the segment (visuals have coverage)
AI audio pickup: new voiceover is generated. In the best case this uses a voice model that sounds like the host. However, using a robot voice can still work.
Text on screen: the editor overlays clarifying or correcting text
This will not be received by viewers who are not (or cannot) watching the screen
Reactive (after the video is posted)
Video Replace: replacing the video with a new version without re-uploading
This relies on YouTube and takes some time. There are fairly strict guidelines around the use of this tool and strong justification must be provided for all changes. This is preferred to a re-upload, but there is likely a soft-limit on how often we can use this resource.
Re-upload the video: Set the original, erroneous video to Private and upload a new version. This will have algorithmic effects, but must be done if replacement is not an option
Pinned comment: add a comment describing the correction.
This will not be received by viewers who do not check the comments (common, especially for those watching on a Smart TV) and should only be used for low-severity errors.
Assessing & Responding to Errors
If any of the following types of errors are discovered prior to filming (e.g. during script review) , fix them before the shoot.
1. Very Low Severity
- The statement could possibly be misunderstood, but it’s generally true and most people would be fine with how it’s currently presented.
- eg. The host says, “One of DisplayPort’s main advantages over HDMI is its higher bandwidth,” but this is only true when comparing certain generations of the standards. HDMI 2.1, for example, has much higher bandwidth than DP 1.1.
Action: no action
2. Low Severity
- The statement is incorrect, and we should try to clarify it better in the future, but we can leave it for now because it doesn’t meaningfully impact a viewer’s purchase decision or general knowledge.
- eg. The host says, “This monitor features moderate pixel response times and contrast because it uses an IPS panel”, but the panel manufacturer is actually AUO, rather than LG, so it’s not an IPS panel - a term which is trademarked by LG - but rather an IPS-type or IPS-like panel.
Action: Pinned comment
Note: Pinned comment text must be approved by the Community Coordinator before being posted.
3. Medium Severity
- The statement is incorrect, and a minority of the audience could be upset or misled, even if it doesn’t really affect the outcome of the product evaluation for the majority.
- eg. The host says, “This GPU has AMD’s AMF video encoder, which is basically the same as NVIDIA’s NVENC,” but while the stated functionality is the same, NVENC offers better image quality, which could be important to a small minority of buyers.
Action: Video replaced if possible according to YouTube policy, otherwise pinned comment and above fold mention of the issue in the video description
If doing a video replace, a pinned comment should communicate this is coming and note the expected changes. This comment should be un-pinned when the video replace is complete.
Note: Pinned comment text must be approved by the Community Coordinator before being posted.
4. High Severity
- The statement is incorrect, and a significant portion of the audience could be misled or make a poorly-informed purchase decision.
- eg. The host says, “This is a great gaming monitor,” when in fact, the monitor is a 60Hz VA display that, while ‘fine’ for playing games, lacks important gaming-centric features that could be easily had for the same price, making it a poor choice.
Action: Video replaced if possible according to YouTube policy. Otherwise, set unlisted and disable monetization until corrective action can be taken.
If doing a video replace, a pinned comment should communicate this is coming and note the expected changes. This comment should be un-pinned when the video replace is complete.
Note: Pinned comment text must be approved by the Community Coordinator before being posted.
5. Very High Severity
- The statement is VERY incorrect—basically the opposite of correct. There is no charitable interpretation that could make this anything but completely irresponsible.
- ex. The host says, “Most games require only one high-performance core to perform their best,” when that hasn’t been true for over a decade.
Action: Video removed or remade

greaves1111 reacted to Godiwa in What do we do now?
was explained another place... do a "reply to all... move them to cc and he forgot to put in the to: field... "honest mistake" but a rough one in this case... and we can call it "unlucky timing" had it been any other... they would have asked "hey what about..." after some time... and then he "well I sent... and check up and find the mistake" but since "other stuff" was rolling in the background that didn't have time to evolve

greaves1111 got a reaction from rafalxyz in What do we do now?
I thought Steve's video was very well put together and contained clips/screenshots to drive home his points. I guess the only unknown for me is how the Billet Labs thing actually went down.... LTT seems to think the timeline Steve reported is false. No idea, don't care. The Billet Labs debacle was ridiculous and LTT deserves all of the flack they are getting for that one. Linus' pompous attitude from those wan show clips was so cringe.
I don't think this is a "vocal minority wins again" situation. They did Billet Labs so dirty and rubbed salt in the wound when they got called out for it lol.

greaves1111 got a reaction from Paul Rudd in What advice would you give to someone younger than you?
Yep, that's what I said
I'm almost 40, and have been gainfully employed for over 20 years in an industry I like and don't intend to leave. I work with a lot of inflated egos, and most of those people shoot themselves in the foot because people generally don't like them.
I might not be the smartest guy in this room, but people like me, and when they get new jobs, I get new job offers. When promotion opportunities arise, I get considered alot of times.
Also, who wants to hang around with a big headed know it all.

greaves1111 reacted to minibois in "google it"
What do you do in such a case? Report them (because such answers are against the rules here) and also ask them to provide a relevant link to solving your problem; since their Google-fu must be so much better.

greaves1111 got a reaction from Agris in "google it"
Anyone else hate this answer? I'm fully aware of how google works. I kinda of just want to tell this person, "I'm asking you, not fucking google". It's kind of a snarky thing to say I think.
So, how about this crazy weather? GO ASK GOOGLE!
whatever, lol.

greaves1111 reacted to Krillingt75961 in best CPU for a mini itx console killer?
http://minimalisticpc.com/blog/hardware/test-5-low-profile-coolers/
This should give you an idea on what to get and how it should perform.
-
greaves1111 reacted to paddy-stone in best CPU for a mini itx console killer?
Well yes it does mean that you wouldn't be able to OC much if at all, but that'd be the same for any CPU in a node 202 because of the small size of the chassis and airflow not being great. So the i7 6700K would still be better because of it's base and boost clock even without OCing it than almost any other CPU you could put in there.

greaves1111 reacted to Mick Naughty in How liquid flows through a custom loop (CPU + GPU and 2 rads)?
Loop order wont matter. Just flow direction for the blocks themselves. The amount of rads wont matter either, just the total amount of heat they can dissipate based off the system.
-
greaves1111 reacted to CatXice in How liquid flows through a custom loop (CPU + GPU and 2 rads)?
when its warming up the cpu will warm up to its stable temp before then gpu's but once your at the stable temp it makes no difference the rooting because if the liquids last place was both rads then it would be really hot yes but then it goes though 2 rads and then cool down a hell of a lot and then to the pump and dont worry about flow rate and shit like that as long as its good enough having the liquid flying round at max speed wont help at all just kill your pump faster

Here's the reply of 1000 times, and 1000 times more:
Have you tried reinstalling windows?

greaves1111 reacted to CatXice in How liquid flows through a custom loop (CPU + GPU and 2 rads)?
run it which ever way will look better in your system as it will not make any difference on your temps
-
greaves1111 reacted to Cyracus in How liquid flows through a custom loop (CPU + GPU and 2 rads)?
Going block to block is fine, you get minor fluctuations until the system reaches its stable operating temp, putting a rad between them won't change anything, also it would be a good idea to throw a T splitter and a ball valve at the low point in the loop to make draining and maintenance easy

greaves1111 reacted to swordsman247 in Complicated audio problem. Help!
Maybe send the sound through the hdmi and use the headset on the pc. You can set the pc to send the capture card audio through the pc output to your headset. this will stop the xbox from having a mic but it should resolve the other issues.

playing the stock market isn't really a make money quick thing, but is fun to learn and invest. I've currently got some money in a marijuana distribution company hoping business booms long term as things become more legalized!
