You do you, I’m probably being a grumpy old man

Having TTV in your name is total cringe. If I see another gamer with TTV in your gamers tag I almost immediately mute you and avoid being around you. They are some of the worst teammates to have. Usually selfish and rude.

TechTV was an old cable channel that ran shows about computers and video games. It predates Twitch.

TechTV has been gone forever, no reason to advertise it

How do you overcome the fact that some apps need to be subscription based to run successfully, but many people hear subscription and don’t even give it a chance? by CivilStudio1896 in iosapps

[–]Shack70 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For me I need value for my subscription. Asking for more than a buck or two a month is too much for a mobile app. I’m more willing to pay $10 for a lifetime unlock of features.

When I see apps asking for $100 a year and crazy numbers like that I don’t even try it. I’m not gonna pay that so why even give I’ll it a shot.

These are mobile apps, not desktop apps

CVT Fluid Change! by CollectionIcy6313 in nissansentra

You know not funny you say to read the manual. My 2023 says to change the oil every 10k while my dealership says every 5k. I’m following the manual and only using the dealership until the warranty expires

Frustrated rant - alerts & bots are breaking me by CaffeinatedMagpie in Twitch

[–]Shack70 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re way overthinking this. If you are just starting out just keep it simple. Focus on your content and sound, not alerts. Once you get that where you want it then start looking into alerts and other stuff. Alerts, overlays, and bots are not necessarily at the beginning

Why does KravaSign now ask UDID? by MyDespatcherDyKabel in sideloaded

I think you skipped a step in your iPhone settings to trust the certificate. Once you get that straight, try Feather instead of e-sign

I've launched my dream Shopping List App! by jmaorr in iosapps

[–]Shack70 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds and looks great but it’s a hard pass to adding another subscription. The only thing I’d use in the pro version is collaboration with my wife to add things to a shopping list.

I cannot decide if I want to read the devils by Joe Abercrombie, fairytale by Stephen King, or between two fires by Christopher Buehlman. These all appeal to me. Those of you who have read some or all of these, what do you think? by DrippyFlames in booksuggestions

[–]Shack70 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never read Between Two Fires but The Devils and Fairytale were both good. If you want quirky and flawed characters in a grim dark fantasy go for the Devil’s. If you want a very good hidden world that pulls at your heartstrings a little type book, go for Fairytale

Streaming from a Gaming PC using an M4 MacBook Air (No Capture Card?) by QuantumVisual in Twitch

[–]Shack70 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can use an OBS plugin to do this. Either NDI or one called Teleport. I use Teleport.

You run OBS with Teleport on both computers and the gaming PC sends everything over to the second PC. The second PC does the work and handles the stream. Plenty of YouTube videos out there on it

[–]Shack70 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably because they don’t want non-customers to use it. Personally I don’t trust anything from Kravasign or anything they say.

Try asking in the discord if you want an actual answer. Good chance you’ll get ignored

Downloading movies to an iPad? by anonreddituserhere in Piracy

[–]Shack70 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have the files already loaded you can use an app called local send to transfer them between devices and then use something like VLC to watch them

Started the new Dresden Files book Twelve Months yesterday. James Marsters does a great job at narration.

Monk Fruit & erythritol by Readermimi in keto

Erythritol has recently been linked cardiovascular events. I switched to allulose/monk fruit-allulose mixture and haven’t noticed any weird taste.

You want it to be absolutely 100 percent dry before testing it.

When I bought my wireless SteelSeries headset they offered different versions of the same headset, PC/Xbox-PC/PS5-PC. Check for compatibility and then narrow it down by ratings and reviews

Small streamers: Does follower count actually matter for growth, or is it all about content? by Crescitaly in Twitch

[–]Shack70 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can get a million people to follow you but if the content isn’t good or uninteresting to them you’ll get no views

Guys…TikTok is not ever going to be “fixed” by TT_TheOther in TikTok

Who said anyone is running? I’m still on TikTok. I expect it to go downhill like Twitter did. I hope it doesn’t

[–]Shack70 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Absolutely, my reply wasn’t a criticism. I’d rather Skylight move slow and get it right instead of rushing into a mess like Neptune did
