Somebody pointed it out in the comments of that video, but in the video where they pay random people to build PCs for them, 29:51 ends up being one of the builders!
@@TheGhostThatWas I'm disappointed at missing the significance of the reference to 'Luke living in the basement here' since I seen that part before the April 1st. The Dan stuff too in hindsight, though had missed the glimpses of him until got to finishing watching today.
Wow nostalgic.... It was about a decade ago if I remember. July 25, 2015. To be honest..... I didn't notice untill I saw a "backroom casting couch" comment....
I was visited by the police for a google search of a gun related topic. apparently a similar gun modification was involved in a homicide. This was 10 years ago... "the list" is real
Wow. Well this is an odd chicken and egg scenario, is ChatGPT drawing from these letters as examples or are these letters being generated from ChatGPT’s example?
A big problem I have with FB Marketplace is that the search results give more completely unrelated items than what is actually searched for. I have bookmarks for multiple items I search for periodically and for all of the searches it's endless results of cars and clothing when I searched for a phone or laptop or camera. There is seemingly no way to submit searches with wildcards and explicit post requirements.
Another really annoying thing is no matter what range I give it, it always shows results from out of state or far away. Even with local pickup only selected
@@ExDementia666I once got a posting for a car on the opposite side of the *country* It was a very rare Volkswagen pickup for a reasonable price, but a 40+ hour drive according to Google... _WHY_
My grandfather was a skilled scythe mower. And yes, the scythe has to be pretty sharp. And since the steel often wasn't the highest quality, keeping it sharp was a bit of a chore. Grandpa would spend quite a while each morning, hammering away at the cutting edge on an anvil - impact hardening the steel. During the day he'd always carry a whetstone in a clip on his belt, and whenever the scythe dulled, he'd sharpen it again. That's what those videos tend to not show... granted, with modern steel less sharpening might be needed compared to back then.
In pre musket times they were also a weapon for when the Lord raised a army for war. They were easy to make and use with good reach. They evolved into things like pikes and halberd.
@@hobojoe9717 these parts there are farmer oriented hardware stores that still carry them or can at least order them... pretty sure you can also order them online, these days.
One of my favourite things about WAN now is hearing Linus start a questionable analogy (Hitler today) then going back to watch Luke’s desperate face as it begins, waiting to see what’s said next.
@@LinusTechTips Don't you think you are a big enough company to just pay someone to do your timestamps (can be some random from the forum, pay them $100 a wan show or something) because not having timestamps equals no watchy, for loads of people. Or at the very least a worse user experience.
Basic timestamps: 1:39 - Google ordered to ID RU-vid users 18:10 - Linus hates Facebook marketplace 36:47 - Merch messages 53:22 - Linus asks AI to craft statement for a large company aquiring smaller competitor 58:52 - Merch message 1:09:48 - Phil Spencer lacks confidence in future of XBOX 1:25:10 - Sub Reddit wanted Linus to use Bing for a month 1:29:16 - Sponsors 1:34:32 - Merch messages 2:08:36 - Sora goes to Hollywood 2:13:47 - Is Bitcoin a beanie baby?

Another way Facebook Marketplace is broken is that the number of postings changes depending on what "sort by" option is selected. "Sort by" should only change the order of the results, not the number of results. This has been an issue for at least 3 years.
And that's not mention that sometimes the sort by option won't come up. I personally live on a coast with land on the other side, so the distance from you is as the crow flies and therefore useless.
Another thing that has appeared in the last couple of years is spam and trolls in nearly every comments section on pretty much every post on public pages... I wonder if it's a tool to increase "interactions" for advertising?
as someone who spends alot of time buying/selling on FB marketplace it frustrates me so much, but also people in vancouver are actually insane. I buy ALOT of cameras, film etc, and people have a "i know what I got" attitude. Another thing i've seen alot of is the girls who are selling cars and put themselves in front of it.
I love sending ads of cheaper prices for the exact same thing. I have been blocked so many times. "You mean my HP slim with a 12100 is not worth $500 used?"
It's everywhere nowadays, most of the sellers I've seen are selling used crap for nearly retail. It could be an indicator that our economy is not quite as robust as we are told it is... and more people are looking for quick cash.
Don't get me started on FB marketplace when looking for a car, the amount of dealerships that put a price and it says listed price is recommended down payment or the listed price is expected payments. Then these people will be a pain in the ass and refuse to give the actual full price. Its so fucking annoying.
Even funnier about the GameBoy backlight thing, the GBA didn’t have a backlight, then the first edition of the SP (AGS-001) had a FRONTlight in 2003, followed by a much better backlight in the AGS-101 model in 2005. Prior to then, the only illuminated screen Nintendo released was the Game Boy Light, which released in 1998 ALONGSIDE the Color but DIDN’T have a color display.
Nintendo didn't need to spend the time improving it as they had the market to themselves. Plus back-light of the time were poor and bad for battery life along with batteries being expensive, so from that perspective Nintendo balanced against those and their competitors all failed because of these sorts of things.
@@bionicgeekgrrlOne of the biggest issues that plagued the GameGear was it's backlight which significantly increased the size and weight, decreased battery life, and increased cost both in manufacturing and shipping.
@@grn1 Yep, screen tech and backlight tech was quite clunky and bulky back then compared to modern screens (even tn) and leds. In many ways the Lynx was perhaps amongst the better handhelds despite the worse battery life compared to dmg gb, but it was lumbered with the headless chicken called Atari.
Got scammed on facebook marketplace assuming the chat is monitored and you're under protection for making transactions through messenger. Turns out nope, a seller can you just instantly block you the moment you've made the payment and continue on. Reporting them as a scammer doesn't help.
In the entire show it was never noted why they were seemingly in a bathroom. It was only towards the end that I realized (perhaps incorrectly) that having seen the couch in a prior video of the new space that they were probably in there because they needed a space that was smaller for recording purposes? But regardless low-key both ?? but also amusing to just not explain and slowly tease out where Dan was-
Yeah, I am 66 years old and supposed to be retired. However, I mow 8 yards and take care of 3 hillsides for elderly and disabled people. I also provide sound/lighting systems for local outdoor events. On top of that, I am a US Marine veteran and active in 3 veterans organizations, performing military funerals for fallen veterans. When I get a chance, I also go kayaking and mountain biking. Needless to say, I don't have a lot of down time to become a couch potato.
It is also where the first cheap militia weapons developed from, gradually evolving into the pike, halberd and others as they were easy to make and simple to use as well as giving troops a good reach.
in the US we call that a bait and switch price and there are laws preventing retailers from doing it. so they should have a button under report the should say "bait and switch price"
I mean it already was.. this is certainly not the first instance.. it's just a mass instance so much as.. and and I think it's going to get worse as well now that the kind of fishing version of IDing and tracking specific individuals and creating profiles and whatnot out of little bits of fluff from thin air pretty much.. there's going to be so many lists because they need so much data.. and fuck you know all the data they don't need that they just thought might be cool... There's something seriously broken in that mentality that any of this is okay and it's amazing how quickly it really only takes one or two to start a group dynamic of completely disregarding ethics and morals for the great good or even reworking the reality framework in their head of that.. Dan is a great American and Dan says it's okay.. we must do this, and then that just becomes yeah of course we can do this this is our right.. and I think that does protest a little too much.. and you're on many of these lists Mr always complaining about looking through their garbage at 3:00 in the morning and leaving it on the street for the raccoons to get into.. Yes we know you've looked at your window three times this morning with disdain, that disdain sounds a little bit like.. a disdain for America, people like you disgust me.. I don't know I'm rolling with that one lol, kind of lost my steam at the end. And on a federal level there is some basic uniformity across the states but like on a state-by-state level or municipality, like you've seen the the wildly varying standards of quality policing between places... From those call of duty bros getting into a shootout in downtown traffic in Florida where one of the hostages was shot, by the police who decided they were engage on moving vehicles.. to the absolutely heroic and abnormal jobs that were done in violation of policy to save so many lives in the Aurora shooting at the theater.. this is really uneven playing field and the standards seem to get lower and lower.. I'm sure it'll be fine everything will be all right
Facebook marketplace sorting by anything but the default just jumbles things up and lists less items. It's been broken since it launched as far as I can tell. I also noticed (as I live in a border area near N Ireland) that uk marketplace users have a feedback system but the Irish accounts don't... WTF FB?!?
The worst is when you change your location and distance radius but leave default sorting. It just ignores location and shows inside and outside the range with no distinction between them
28:28 why not utilize the price range filter, Facebook marketplace has one. That is how I remove the absurdly low and high price listings for a search and THEN I sort by price.
@@bradweinberger6907 what can I say finding things for free in this world isn't easy. In Facebook marketplace just like in most marketplaces there's people trying to game the system especially thoughs looking for free.
The amount of bot generated facebook marketplace postings trying to scam you is insane. I tried to by a JBL 1000 speaker and out of 45 people that i contacted literally 42 were bots all sending the exact same response trying to scam you.
Yea, the bots have gotten real bad but also dead ads.. message someone about an item, "sorry it's sold", ad still there months later.. wtf is wrong with people? They are answering that it's sold but just leave the ad up!! 🫠
@@acoolrocket I may have issues regarding the fee, and some other things, but at least they have decent protections. Still need be quite wary regarding reading the description closely due to the types of scams like only paying for the box, or a picture of the item, or the classic Apple Notebook.
This is the best nostalgia I have experienced in a while. I don't know how long you have been following LTT for but they used to have this set for a while while they were at the Langley House. Casting Couch FTW.
Maybe if Xbox marketed outside of the US their sales wouldn’t be slumping. Being from NZ you rarely ever see advertising for Xbox consoles, it’s mainly PlayStation and Nintendo.
They don’t advertise in the US either, the Xbox is a failed product. Microsoft is a failed company. It’s all propped up by corruption and fraud. People don’t realize just how bad Microsoft is for the world.
One way I mess with FB marketplace is when I sell an item, I delete the ad and when they ask why, I say "prefer not to say". Just one less data point for them
You should hire PC builders from FB, craigslist, and offerup, then see if you actually got what you paid for, or got ripped off. Kind of like the shopper series.
It sounds pretty difficult to get a video like that done well. If do a sample size of 1 off each, it's not going to be too helpful. If they use the same video to highlight things regarding the customer protections that (may) apply, the kind of ways to do some due diligence on the sellers, the types of payments to avoid or prefer.. then yeah it could work. Something like a updated guide to 'caveat emptor' for those things would be a help to anyone, even those that consider themselves savvy or techy.
In Argentina, many people have experienced that when they go to the agreed-upon location to deliver the product, the buyer shoots them and takes it away
You may not realize this, but your emphasis on coin or currency actually negates the security point. The SEC generally refers to the howey test for classification. According to this test, an investment contract exists if 1) there’s an investment of money, 2) in a joint enterprise, 3) with the expectation of a profit, 4) which is obtained through the efforts of others. According to that definition things such as: commodities (oil, corn, cattle), currencies (dollar, cad etc) and precious metals (gold, silver etc) are NOT considered securities. (Similar argument could be made for many cryptos...)
For those users in the US it’s a clear violation of their 4th Amendment Rights without a warrant or subpoena. Why did Google comply? Google has a history of doing this.
It's not clear if Google did comply, but with USA having stuff like the FISA court, it's certainly likely. Not saying these particular 'requests' would be under FISA, but that's just one court that has a lot of dealings with telecoms and internet.
The worst part of Facebook Marketplace I have now is that I can't sort for things that are only local. They force both local and shipping items to show which I never want to buy anything and trust facebook sellers to ship things....
as a fish owner Facebook marketplace is great you can get appropriately priced plantsor 50 gal tanks for free if you have no problem picking ir up and cleaning it but there are like 5x the amount of listings for 10 gal tanks listed at $200... you can buy a brand new 10 gal for like 15 bucks btw, or people sell their drift wood pieces for hundreds of dollars, and those are the actual listings btw ive called listings like this multiple times and its almost every time its an elderly person who will not budge on the price at all, one listing was selling a 20 gal tank that was filthy and a few decorations that were also gross and old as hell and he was livid when i said il pay $50 for all of it instead of the $150 listing price.
50:00 you don't even have to retire. I was out of a job due to COVID restrictions for a while and I could feel my own decline 6 month in. I'm not even sure if I'm back fully, after 2+ years actually doing stuff again.
I feel like I’ve fallen into a time wormhole! What’s going on right now with WAN Show? I’m not complaining at all, just different. No more window dressing, just two guys talking tech, kind of nice.
The CIA must have gotten to Linus. He's now spreading Radio Free Asia disinformation. Maybe next week he'll tell us how Kim shot someone with an anti-aircraft gun because he didn't like his haircut.

10:50 In France few people use a scythe but that doesn't stop them from being found in all DIY stores in the countryside. You need to have the right technique, a sharp blade and grass that is not too tall when it is green. And yes the t-shirt is optional! 🙂
Anyone gonna talk about how Facebook marketplaces UI is LITERALLY unusable? After scrolling just a bit it skips upwards and you can't scroll down without it skipping back up
I think we should crowd source the fix for Facebook marketplace by everyone responding to every janky "it's free ..." by replying to the then saying "yeah, I'll have it for free ...". and just FILL their inbox to the point where they can't manually sift through their emails to find that one they wanted. Maybe there's a RU-vid video we could watch to find the most efficient way to do it 😁
Craigslist has the same issue with things at 1 dollar but in the description gives a real price... it's because they want people who don't want to spend what they're asking for to see it anyway. I just always put a minimum price.
The old anarchist cookbook. Use to if you went in a book store and ordered it (it was rumored) you'd go on a list...and it wasn't the list of people waiting for a book order.
Remember that list of alleged words that triggered NSAs Echelon? That list that included words like, passwords, secure, firewalls, white house, pea pod, bird dog(?) , unix, and on and on? And that story is like 10+ years old? Jake is on more than one list, as a person on the internet, but we're all there with you buddy. 🎉
I love how Linus slipped up with the "When you were living in the basement _here still"_ at 51:23, referencing the Langley House, and YT chat just DID NOT notice it
Honestly, the people on Facebook Marketplace should be legally required to sell it for the listed price if they don't accept offers. If they list it for $1 and they don't accept offers, it's $1 then.
13:24 Okay, just a quick pro tip: DO NOT DO THAT geopolitics aside, you are actually violating another countries aisrpace. there is no innocent passage for aircraft, and yes drones do count as such for the purpose of airlaw. that can get you in serious legal trouble. if that happens with actual airplanes, jet fighters will be scrambled, and the aircraft will be escorted out the airspace, or made to land. this is serious. even more so when you take the geopolitical situation into account.
What I'm seeing from the Labs logo ideas is a lot of options for buttons related to specific product types. Use the PC Beaker logo for prebuilt reviews if they're done, the fan one for heatsink reviews, the cpu one for cpu reviews etc. Just as quick access buttons somewhere.
This is definitely annoying but it's not as bad as the mess of eBay and Amazon. Their 'variable item' system completely wrecks searching by price. You find a SSD and see a cheap 512gb one for £5! You click on it and then you are presented with lots of options. It turns out that the 512GB one is actually £30 and the £5 is actually for a hard drive protective 'bag' which they've craftily listed as one of the SSD size options! On Amazon you have the same problem, but also even when you get the correct item and price you can be scrolling through dozens of reviews and after a while you realise that most of the reviews are for an *entirely* different product that happens to an option under the same listing! No wonder you get people buying stuff and thinking "Hey, this fridge was missold as it doesn't play Xbox series X games or output 4K!"
As a school counselor I have had a lot of middle school students who have been on discord. Several of them have ended up on inappropriate servers or have chatted with people who have tried to start inappropriate relationships.

@@danielross971 False reporting takes time away from the people actually investigating child abuse on Facebook. This might lead to bad people and posts going free for longer.
It's weird because all the ones that on RU-vid actually could qualify for it seem to just keep showing up no matter how much I report them... Tell you what if you wanted to really take a chunk out of people violating RU-vid terms of service policies, gaze that eye towards the people buying out ads on the platform where there are more scam videos than I could ever find on a home page at random
Lol is it Linus's first time hearing about Choi Eun hee? She was kidnapped from Hong Kong alongside her seperated husband (who was a director) and they spend 15 years in North Korea. Eventually, they recorded conversations in a Walkman, and later when on a trip on Austria, they escaped through like window and stuff and took an cab to US Embassy. The security did give chase, but they couldn't catch up. They took all the recordings with them
Talking about facebook marketplace. Could you do a video on the marketplace access denied issues which lately has been happening to thousands upon thousand of people all over the globe. Somehow people suddenly is just denied access to marketplace for no apparent reason. And facebook is not doing anything about it, like in absolutely nothing.
