    Travo97 reacted to Munteanu in The situation at Tek syndicate   
    It's quite fascinating how Logan copes with all this.
    His "apology" is basically a self-aggrandizing essay on how he's very deep and he's an artist (any dude with a MIDI keyboard and sequencer software is apparently a world class musician) and how Pistol has done nothing wrong ever and even though she didn't feel like doing WASD in the past she'll get on it now because she's just that great.
    The whole thing reads like an angsty teen's livejournal.
     
    Comparing the two you can really see how down-to-earth and sincere Wendell is regarding the matter, he saw the whole thing was going nowhere. He was the lesser partner in a company that had strayed far from the path laid out. 
     
    It's sad to see them go, but watching the whole thing go down in flames seems appropriate, this is what happens when you learn nothing from your past mistakes.
     
    Ego-trip highlights:
    "...she takes her orders from me and does a good job on the editing... If you see pretty broll, she did it..."
    "...I needed to find my place. Some people don't understand that..."
    "...I am one of those stupid artists. I make my music, write..."
    "...I did Tek Syndicate like a wild, creative entrepreneur..."
    "...Money doesn't turn me on. Ideas do..."
    "...he is the smartest nerd on YouTube. I'm probably the silliest..."
    "...look at our logo... the burning earth. This is us... the wild ones..."
    "...I like the more creative stuff... the deeper stuff... the zanier stuff... the learning stuff... the outside of the box stuff..."
    "...I'm an entertainer and I hope I occasionally make someone think deeper or look at life in a new way..."

    They go on the Front Panel Connections header which should be in the lower right corner of the board. The mobo manual should have the layout for how to connect them.

    Travo97 got a reaction from notduongdang in Why can I ping other hosts on different subnet but cannot ping back?   
    The firewall on your laptop may be blocking ICMP echo-replies. Try temporarily disabling the firewall and see if it solves the issue, if it does create a firewall rule to allow ICMP.

    Travo97 reacted to The Flying Sloth in 300 dollar headphones vs 200 dollar headphones + 100 dollar DAC?   
    I have learned the hard way that headphone price almost never scales to quality/performance,
    I have many friends with music studios who refuse to use anything other than the latest 'studio' set from sennheiser or Beats  (although the Beats users are in the minority)
    My favourite sounding over ears OF ALL TIME are a cheap set of Areal 7 Choppers I bought on sale  for $17 (closely followed by the TDK MP100's tied with the Beyerdynamic T5p's ) and I don't know whether I got a lucky set but many of my $400+ headphone user friends have been in awe at the sound quality from those two sets.

    OP, in the end it always comes down to what sound you like best. Don't discount cheap headphones just because they're cheap,  sometimes the cheap ones sound better (again, it is all up to your opinion).

    I'm 16, that doesn't necessarily grant me some sort of pass to dismiss someone younger than myself.

    Travo97 reacted to DebatED Nothing in Games Kids Should Not be Allowed to Play?   
    What have they said that is at all controversial here? All of the games they've listed have ratings that clearly label them as not for kids.
  9. Agree
    Travo97 reacted to daniellearmouth in Games Kids Should Not be Allowed to Play?   
    As far as I'm concerned, each one of these games is M rated for a reason.
     
    Kids shouldn't really be playing any of the six games listed. It's not made for them, the content is aimed towards a more adult audience, and there's still an abundance of games they can play outside of that.

    Travo97 reacted to Enderman in I think LTT makes up a majority of Vessel views...   
    You're disgusting.
     
    The only reason LMG is are large as it is and producing over ten videos a week, with a dozen employees, is because of money.
     
    All you're doing is enjoying free content and complaining when someone else tries to make a living.
     
    I bet you don't even support LMG. You're not a donor. You're not a forum contributor. I bet you even use adblock on all his youtube videos to give him even less money, because you're a selfish kid.
     
    Being a "fan" does not help linus feed his wife and kids.
    The fact that you cant even comprehend the amount of money that it costs to run a business, the hundreds of thousands of dollars that it cost to build a new office, and the thousands of dollars a month he needs to pay every employee, just shows how immature and unsupportive of LMG you are.
     
    Even I have a better car than he does, and I dont have a job, so go suck on your "lambo" comment. Linus needs more TRUE fans who actually care about the company and its growth and success, not whiny pricks who complain when someone tries to find better sources of income.

    To clarify, this is not a Channel Super Fun series. That was a mistake in their copy. Nerd Sports is its own entity under Linus Media Group, and all future copy will reflect that.

    This is a content idea that we had that would not have been possible without external support, and Vessel stepped up to the plate to support its creation.

    Official comment will come soon I'm sure...

    Travo97 reacted to nicklmg in I think LTT makes up a majority of Vessel views...   
    Easy to see why people take that quote in that way, but my understanding there always was (and still is) that he was referring to all content currently being created by Linus Media Group, which is true. LTT, TQ, and CSF posting schedules are all unchanged. But, like I said, it's easy to see it from the other side.

    Anyway, I'll let Linus handle the official comment. This is all just my opinion.

    Travo97 reacted to farhanorakzai in I think LTT makes up a majority of Vessel views...   
    the way i see it is that the new series would not exist without the support of Vessel, so they have every right to have it as an exclusive.

    well you dont have to pay for it so, they do it for free the same way tf2, dota and lol are all created out of the kindness of the ehart of their creators they are not multi million dollar entreprises behind them making them for the profit they generate

    Travo97 reacted to derick90 in I think LTT makes up a majority of Vessel views...   
    You're right, I have been upset with companies that have "lied" to me in the past. However, they have all been PAID services. So, I guess I have to repeat myself, LinusTechTips is still free - TechQuickie is still free - CSF, guess what, still free - For chanel superfun they had to get a patreon page to support, because however much you think that it costs nothing to produce these videos, you're wrong, if a company comes to them and says "Hey we would like to sponsor this NEW content on a NEW chanel, but on the grounds it needs to be hosted exclusively on our platform" from a business standpoint thats one hell of an offer, again, are you going to man up and sponsor their content for everyone else to enjoy? I didn't think so.

    Travo97 reacted to Virus__ in I think LTT makes up a majority of Vessel views...   
    This. The only other YouTube channel I saw promote(and by promote mean mention) they were on Vessel was NCIX Tech Tips. I never saw Unbox Therapy, Hardware Canucks or Epic Meal Time ever mention they had moved to Vessel. Saying that Unbox Therapy has stopped uploading to Vessel which is weird.

    Travo97 reacted to Scheer in I think LTT makes up a majority of Vessel views...   
    This is just my thought on the matter, and I am likely completely wrong... but I think everyone is looking at this incorrectly. The way I see it, this as if they were creating a TV show for, say, Discovery channel. Yes they made it, but its not their content to decide how it is distributed.
     
    For all we know they won't even be managing the channel, just hired to film/act/edit a series, and do not have the rights to upload it themselves.

    People aren't allowed to change their opinion and/or their stance on a matter. Whatever their initial opinion is the one they must grow old and die believing in.

    Travo97 reacted to Trikein in Networking for beginners   
    No, please don't. This needs to be a sticky on this Networking Forum. I see too many posts of people reporting problems and giving NO information on the issue because of a general ignorance of all things internet. Gets old repeating the same thing over and over.
     
    Could you also add a "What to include when reporting slow speed?" I can write up the DOCSIS part. I have done it a couple times for other forums. Give a man a phish, he eats for a day, teach him how to phish, and he eats for a lifetime.
