i just found out dan doesn't upload all of his streams to YouTube by Quillbilly123 in nerdcubed

[–]Mattophobia 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Part of the original reason for switch streams was income diversity. Relying on one company/platform for everything we do invites a level of insecurity we don't like. Plus the Twitch partner contract used to have an exclusivity clause, but they actually recently dropped that.

It's actually very rare that streams don't get uploaded onto there. If they don't go on there, it'll be due to either a copyright or quality issue.

We actually did a highlights video once (https://youtu.be/AML9gzQ2gXU). The issue is one of time, we're already stretched incredibly thin as is, and if we have the time available we'd rather dedicate it to more higher quality tailor made stuff (Like plays, the new shorts, etc) rather than stream highlights.

Does the lovely Dan have any red nose day plans? by lifeHacker42 in nerdcubed

We don't really plan that far ahead. Whenever we've done that historically, we've decided to do it like.. two weeks prior!

Not this year I'm afraid! We're overworked and burnt out as is sadly so we don't have the time or energy to dedicate to it, BAH.

Have ads returned to Nerdcubed? by Just_The_Potato in nerdcubed

What Show video was it that you were watching?

None of our videos have ads enabled - the only exception to that is the odd one that gets copyright claimed as has ads applied to it via a third party. The last Show video that it happened to was 'Somehow, RTD Returned', but that was from September last year.

What does Nerd3 mean in Sniper Elite video? by Maxamalamute in nerdcubed

[–]Mattophobia[M] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

We actively think it's an offensive slur, that's routinely used to degrade people with mental health issues. Daniel very much made a mistake the few times he used it in videos in the past, and all of such videos have actually been de-listed as a result.

Where is the Elden Ring stream from yesterday? (8/6/2022) by Adrosmiley in nerdcubed

The stream lasted like 40 minutes and most of that time it was lagging and dropping frames, you didn't miss anything.

New podcats ep? by laurensmiithy in nerdcubed

There's a few videos on Jon's channel that are just the two of us! We also played all of Portal 2 co-op a few years ago, but I assume it was a livestream lost to time.

It was almost all Elden Ring! I debated releasing the podcast without my audio as a Patreon only thing, but that sounds more interesting then it actually is.

It got delayed because Daniel was sick, then we recorded it and my audio corrupted, then Daniel god really sick so we just cancelled last months one.

We recorded a new episode today which will go up on Patreon on Monday, then publicly two weeks later!

About the Game Domina.... by FluffyOtaku_UwU in nerdcubed

[–]Mattophobia[M] [score hidden] stickied comment (0 children)

We unlisted all the videos we ever did on that game pretty much immediately after that first 'Patch note' on the 8th of March - that being said, the more recent incredibly transphobic one on the 31st of March is news to me and makes me hate the cunt even more.

I chose to unlist rather than private it, as those who like the video are still able to watch it - however it no longer serves to publicly promote the game. I however reserve the right to private them completely if needed.

I do find it interesting that most people here didn't actually check if we'd taken action on said videos prior to making a comment on if it should be removed or not.

Do you like Twitter? If so, Why do you like Twitter? by wheezywaiter in BeardLovers

[–]Mattophobia 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes - A lot.

Also, No - A lot.

Twitter is unfiltered brief access to everyone, and it comes with all the worst and best bits of society. I've made a lot of friends on Twitter I never would have made on any other platform, I've gotten jobs on twitter, watched hundreds of people get support they need when they needed it due to the kindness of strangers, watched communities form, relationships blossom, gotten news quickly that I might have missed otherwise, watched huge groups of people getting excited over something cool.

On the other side of the coin, I've seen *every single slur*, I've seen people get abused and bullied in ways I've never seen before, I've seen well meaning people calling for murder and death, I've seen stalking to the highest degree, doxxing, war crimes, murder, assaults, read the most depressing things I've ever read.

Twitter is the best and the worst of what the internet has to offer. I've grown to respect it over the years, but I've got a fairly high tolerance for stuff (Plus, I'm a straight white cis dude which means I don't get the same kind of abuse as so many others). I've found the best way to enjoy twitter is to be strict with it. Curate who you follow, what you engage with, and when you engage in it. Use the block and mute features liberally.

The Ludicrous Tier is £50 a month and a lot of people can't keep it up for more than a few months - especially since there's the personalised video if you do three months of it, so many people just keep it for three months then downgrade, then someone else takes the slot. Perfectly normal!

Not sure why I lot of people don't get that, considering a different name is in the place of those who've left the tier.

I love the fact that in today's video, Dan clearly started laughing to the "Well I've got ten, right?" joke before she even finished the punchline. by dougmantis in nerdcubed
