The GamersNexus arc is such a YouTube success story: from a dude uploading videos, to superbly rigorous methodology in top tier hardware reviews, to occasional news summaries, to journalistic longforms, to straight up advocacy, and somehow back to a humble written tech site.
It’s like a tech Benjamin Button story. Thanks, Steve!
...oh heck, I can't handle it anymore, take my money already.
I understand their points. But to me they do too much rage baits these days that I can't bring myself to watch their stuff. Why would I let my self get angry lol.
Yeah, I agree but given the state of YouTube and the fact GN has an actual office, lab and employees, I also understand why they have no choice but to the play the game at least a bit. YouTube has repeatedly cut the rev rates to the point that even fairly large channels are still under pressure if they have meaningful recurring expenses.
Basically, I just skip the rage bait and watch the good stuff. I also love that GN still publishes print articles, which has essentially zero upside for them.
Reality has both negatives and positives. Gamers Nexus clearly lie on the other side of the spectrum where they overwhelmingly choose the negative stuffs, hence rage baits.
I cannot name any positives from the past twelve months in the field of PC hardware, that Gamers Nexus operates in and around with their work. Perhaps I’ve overlooked something?
I hate when companies start issuing legal threats against OSS software; was planning on buying a 3D printer for my kids. I don't know what brand I'll buy yet, but I now know which brand I will _not_ buy.

Better to report on reality than to report positively. TV isn’t always about entertainment, after all!

Looks like Bambu wants to speedrun to being the (modern) HP of 3D printing.
Ironically, HP Multijet Fusion 3D printers are pretty awesome
The first iteration of their stuff often is.
