ya, we definitely plan to do more in that category. You could say... it's RETRO TIME!

that's a good point. We did it once or twice, so we should do it again. Games... it feels like we always get the controversial ones XD (Cyberpunk and Last of Us 2)

ShortCircuit is growing rapidly and it's always useful to get you our loyal viewers' suggestions on what we should be on the lookout to cover on the channel or even categories we haven't even thought about! One big item is that the suggestions should be tech-related. Check out the channel if you haven't already at https://www.youtube.com/shortcircuit

Everyone! Thanks for bringing this up. We decided to remove the Nikon Z9 video due to the glaring issue regarding the specific auto focus mode that was never tested, which ultimately lead to the wrong conclusion. We weren't able to simply fix it by our typical methods or refilm as the loaner camera was sent back after the video was released for retesting and posting a new video. We're going to develop a few new ways to address we don't run into this issue again, but thanks for your patience with us on the matter.

Thanks! Please keep us updated regarding the status. Also, @Extra Card is a member on the forum so they can help out to explain it to everyone on what happened!

Hey guys, Jumping in here since it looks like this is a growing issue. Right now we contract the subtitling that uses an AI service that has a human checking, but as schmintendo highlighted, it seems like some of the jargon gets misrepresented. We'll take it to our team and see how we can get this fixed up.

Hey! Yep, we still work with them here and there. There's no bad blood between us and Savage Jerky.

Hey everyone! It's the weekly sponsorship suggestion thread. If you know of any companies that you think we should work with, don't hesitate to suggest it in the thread! These can be companies you may have seen sponsor other creators, digital ads, or just products you are interested in buying/using. It doesn't have to be in the technology space too! Alternatively, if you have a personal or seen problems with any of the sponsors that we work with feel free to add it below, but keep it objectional (e.g. No fanboyism). This thread will be open for the month of April 2022. Business Team Members: @SeanLMG @GeoffLMG @BellLMG @CPotter @JonoT

Ok guys! It's a new month and new thread will get started! This one will be getting locked.

Hey! Looks like Colton messaged you on your original post so we're going to get it handled there.

Sorry to clarify they don't pay for placement. I wanted to highlight that we like using their tools paid or not.

Oh we still work with iFixit fairly extensively. They either have official sponsor spots on the channel or have been used on camera for video projects and streams.

Hey guys! We were presented with an interesting opportunity to work with XSplit, which we have worked with in the past but we wanted to through it to you guys to see what your thoughts are and if you guys would use or have used it! Website Link: https://www.xsplit.com/ A few notable Pros: - Fairly simple to use software (from personal experience) - Free versions - Premium version license can either be purchased as lifetime or a monthly subscription - Has started to become more B2B focused Cons: - many different alternatives that are either the same price or cheaper - can't connect smartphone to your PC to use as a webcam with a cable, has to be wireless (personal gripe) - lack of customization compared to other free offerings (e.g. OBS) Brief Company Background (from the about us): XSplit was founded in 2009 with the vision of making visual communication simple. We set out to build an easy-to-use tool that would help people to create TV-like broadcasts for the internet from their laptops or desktops. This would eventually become XSplit Broadcaster, a live streaming and recording application that is now being used by millions of people around the world to create video content for platforms such as YouTube, Twitch, Facebook, and more. In fact, it was one of the catalysts that helped create the multi-billion dollar video game live streaming industry. By 2016, XSplit had expanded its suite of products to include Gamecaster, a more streamlined app for gaming content creators (which has since been spun off to form its own company) and it expanded its product portfolio with the acquisitions of Player.me, Strexm, and Challonge (since sold to Logitech). These newly acquired technologies and their creators would help bolster XSplit’s continual growth as it expanded into machine learning capabilities and mobile applications with the launch of XSplit VCam and XSplit Connect: Webcam.

Thanks to Kioxia for sponsoring this video! Check out their CD6 NVME SSD at https://lmg.gg/rkDFz $1,000,000 is how much this entire setup costs, not including all the man-hours since it took over a YEAR to make this happen! Kioxia, AMD, NVIDIA, Supermicro, and Wekka combined their efforts, and they have blown our minds.

Noted on future Epic Game Sponsorship, we'll discuss this with the team if it gets proposed again.

Awesome discussion here guys! I'm going to be closing this thread and starting up a March one. We'll probably extend this out to be a month long thread instead of a weekly one.

Thanks for the suggestion and the discussion, but send over the ideas to our LTT video suggestion thread as we want this thread to be about sponsors.

We can bring it up, I think they're concentrating on getting the project killswitch in a shippable state. We can highlight that there's interest in the LTT skins for the steam deck. https://dbrand.com/killswitch

Hey guys! We're going to close this thread now, but we'll remake a new one for this week. Keeping it fresh.

Good catch!

Hey everyone! This is our first official thread for our incredible fans to raise concerns, issues, or praise our sponsors. It will be open for about one week and then closed, with a new one created in its place. The reason why we want to do it this way is to help prevent the thread from getting too long since we don't want to be 30-40 pages deep trying to find one single piece of feedback. What kind of feedback we're looking for: Customer Service Issues News on bad business practices Poor product quality We want to keep this thread as productive as possible! So let's make sure we're not getting off track. Business Team Members: @SeanLMG @GeoffLMG @BellLMG @CPotter @JonoT
