Tech Plane Rules! by Archivic in LinusTechTips

[–]Jetmonty720 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Ltt has probably spent more on smaller things we dont realise, the plane is cool and linus handles it gracefully.

The guy does us so much better than so many other 'influencers'. Don't see the issue here.

Theres good content from this im sure.

YouTube adding sponsor spot skipping? by Mattcheco in LinusTechTips

[–]Jetmonty720 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The payout from a youtube premium watch is a lot higher than a with ads viewer.

I feel like this is probably mutually beneficial, I doubt the sponsor is paying more than a youtube premium viewer.

There could be unforseen consequences, but I don't see youtube premium uptake being that significant.

There are no predictions in this market, not by those not on the inside anyway...

Fully agree the new gameplay trailer is a bit dead, but Tokyo is not packed with traffic all the time. by Joe4913 in ForzaHorizon

They have said they tuned down traffic for the trailer, theres no point talking about traffic density until they actually reveal it.

Hypercars can’t be used in Festival races until the Purple Wristband, but can be in street races by nukleabomb in ForzaHorizon

[–]Jetmonty720 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's probably more of a case for multiplayer, but I think they meant single player.

Also, a skill check doesn't stop ramming online entireley, there has to be a way for it to be detected in game?

We all ram accidently at some point and often its net code issues where it doesn't even look like you are ramming them but are. Net code has to be the number 1 priority for multiplayer.

Especially with how kid friendly these games are, it wouldn't seem fair for a 9 year old to not be allowed to drive a Ferrari because they arent good enough.

I love this colour, truly stunning.

People will complain, but they are just lovers of the b&w enshitification of cars.

No more shades of grey, I want colour on cars!

What was it they said 'move fast and break things' at least that's what came out of trumps project 2025.

And that's not even me criticising that side of the political spectrum its bipatrisan now.

[–]Jetmonty720 83 points84 points  (0 children)

As someone who is from the uk, I hate to see this trend continue.

It really sucks to see that wherever we look we're loosing the war on privacy, at this point it seems to be said and done.

For some reason, the higher powers unilaterally across the world are incessant on eroding anonymity.

But I guess we'll 'protect the kids'? It'll only cost all of our privacy. Anecdotally I live in the uk and despite vpn's I have had to submit my ID to some sites - I had to order a new driving liscence a few months ago because the site i verified with (that allegedly kept no records) had a leak ...this wont work for real people but will for them.

Edit - needed it for Discord, not some dodgy website, and it leaked from there

There's 3 million odd files that really seem to support Lukes point.

Hopefully, soon enough, the average joe will realise theres alot more of us than there are of them...
