Will crypto-currencies be a thing in Scrap Yard Wars 7?
Alariel replied to oOAdam_GrahamOo's topic in General Discussion
That would definitely make me stop watching, even faster than bringing bloody Austin back (here's me hoping that doesn't happen either). -
I'm tired of Linus giving people horrible building advice.
Alariel replied to minervx's topic in General Discussion
We must not be watching the same videos. I cannot count the times he has pointed out the power efficiency and how you don't need an overkill power supply. Or that you don't need this or that component unless you're gaming at 4k. Or his preference for mafugly noctua fans over anything flashy. And yeah, he does ridiculously high-end builds sometimes, and completely impractical stuff like "let's see how many gamers we can stuff onto this one machine", and stupid but fun stuff, but isn't that why a lot of people watch his channels? -
My only thought as I quickly scrolled past that video was that that's one way to get a lot of clicks/views, because everyone knows who Linus is afterall. *shrugs*

So super secret sneak mode is a thing. Fair enough, I (obviously) did not know that.

I noticed when @James posted today's video on the LTT Official that according to his profile he hasn't been here since sometime in September. Obviously he's posted since then (like today). Unless there's some kind of super secret sneak mode for LMG staff I'd assume it's a bug of some kind and probably affecting more than that one profile.

How do I buy something using Linus' Amazon affiliate link
Alariel replied to kerradeph's topic in General Discussion
Briefly. Some time ago. They got it sorted, so no worries. -
How many times can a DVD drive be opened and closed?
Alariel replied to Boomwebsearch's topic in Peripherals
No idea, but I've been moving the same bloody drive from one PC to the next for ages now and it's still working fine, so I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say a lot. -
Been a while since I've enjoyed WAN this much. They actually managed to get to most of the topics. No pointless interuptions of running off to do other stuff mid-show. And they managed to be entertaining/fun without derailing the entire thing. These two should definitely team up more.

I can't decide between "I see the screw-up faerie has visited again" and "At least cancer kills"...

Many reasons. It works. It doesn't look like it was made for tablets or those little toy computers you can buy for kids. It doesn't force updates that may or may not break stuff. Compatability. Privacy. That strange error some people are getting in 10 that randomly makes the CPU run at 100% on idle. The list could go on a while longer, but it's past midnight for me and I need my 6 hours of sleep.

Yas!!! You (hopefully) can't see it, but I'm doing a little happy dance around my desk.

Honestly my first thought was how much I just really really don't enjoy all these guests from other channels. As for thought on the actual suggestions... That's a lot of time to use on what will still only be a couple of videos. It completely defeats the purpose of Scrapyard Wars. Some elements fit better with other types of videos, like the Tech Showdowns (which personally I enjoy more that SYW). Audience voting adds even more delay, work, and an element of chaos that just seems pointless to me.

Yeah, Paypal doesn't work for me either, unless I want to pay 50 dollars for a 3 dollar subscription. But I'm gonna wait and see what the prices actually end up being, I don't think anyone has actually said yet.
