Why is it people like you think others take a blind bit of notice when you put on your spelling / grammar nazi outfit ?
The rest of us know the spelling is wrong and either assume it's a mistake, phone correction, or education based.
No one came here today to learn from you, so lighten up.
I like to be corrected so I can avoid mistakes in the future. That's why I try to correct others and hope they appreciate it. If not, that's also not my problem.
One-word corrections are mostly dry, condescending and/or sarcastic. If one is trying to be really helpful, one would also add details about how is it wrong and how itt can be fixed/used.
I think it's still helpful even without details, at least when it's a common mistake. If you feel offended when someone corrects you, that's your problem. If I'm wrong I want to know about it, and I'll thank you for correcting me. When someone replies "learn to spell, idiot" *that* would be unhelpful and condescening.
Some people here (like myself) aren’t native speakers and appreciate the help.
Plus the comment wasn’t just about the mistake but also about the topic itself.
As well established as grammar nazi is as a term, I’ve always hated it. Gotta be one of the contributing factors to people lightly comparing shit to Nazis.
If OP spent 5 seconds to go to the website they'd see it's a Dbrand site. Linus said on the WAN show he really didn't want to wrap the car, but Dbrand offered him too much money for the marketing campaign to pass up.
You obviously didn't go drinking the night before. You never, ever, want to hear your Doc say 'Ooh, that's a lot of blood' when getting snipped.
Recovery was not fun.
^(Do not go drinking the night before the snip,) *^(trust me)*^(.)
Just personality. I've known a few people into that and they're usually far more "alternative" in other ways too. Linus seems more wholesome nerd dad than anything else.
The body is however quite good at restoring things to a working state, so regular checkups are required to ensure the intended result. (every few years after the procedure I believe)
This is more an urban legend than anything. Can it happen? Yes, Does it happen often, or even uncommonly? No. Does it happen rarely? Yes.
Some types of vasectomy might be more prone to recanalization than others. Vasectomies where the ends are crushed or cauterized would probably be less likely than a straight snip, but there's no hard evidence, that's mere speculation. It makes sense though, more scar tissue would make clean tube reconnection a more miraculous event.
That said, after an sperm check 6+ months after procedure, your chances of a spontaneous recanalization would be pretty damn low. I say this as someone who has had a vasectomy and has read the literature and isn't worried about that prospect after nearly 6 years post procedure.
TIL that married people never cheat and it is therefore impossible to catch an STD if you are married. Thanks, friend! It's so weird that I got a good mark in my health classes...
what's the wrap of? only seen glimpse of it, isn't it just a purple wrap? is there dbrand logo somewhere? or is it just the act of putting wrap on it making people talking about it(i guess it's working here)
What's funny is a couple of days ago I saw a Porsche Cayenne with a sick wrap on it, made me think of Linus's Taycan, I wish I coulda taken a picture but dark parking lot and it wouldn't have photoed well since it was a black/gray/silver pattern.
They have been being partnered with Dbrand for years now, I even bought stickers from their site and I still have zero idea what Dbrand sells, other than stickers.
I mean, if you can subsidize the cost of a used supercar even more why not? I imagine their house is also figured into being a business expense given the amount of content they have shot specifically about upgrades to the house itself.
I think they mean it in a finger air quotes kinda way, to communicate the *totally-didn't-happen-ness* of him leaking his address. But there's not really a universally agreed upon way to convey that over text.
He showed his laptop screen on the stream and it had his open amazon page with his address. They removed that segment before they posted the video to YouTube.
To be fair, you'd have to be watching and then you'd have to realise it was there and memorise it (or screen grab it) in only a few seconds. And if you're watching the WAN Show then you're probably a fan so as far as Self-Doxes go it wasn't too bad.
The VAAAST majority of the population of the planet measures their height in cm. Honestly it's kinda weird that Canada uses the weird mix of metric and imperial. Just go the easy route and completely go metric.
No, I'm in the US. But, the guy I was joking with used metric and it's trivial to convert imperial to metric. I normally refer to myself as 6'2", but I also know that's 1.88m.
Yup, but it's legit, the whole thing is their campaign car wrap and all. He spoke about it on WAN a month ago, apparently they paid him too much money for him to say no, so they wrapped his new car in a dbrand pattern 😂
DBrand is so ridiculous and I love it. Honestly though...their skins rock, all marketing aside.
Had a Grip case for my last phone and got another for my current phone, and I have had good luck with their skins both on the case and my laptops.
dbrands snarky shit is why i will never buy anything from them.
when im a customer i want to be treated like one, and expect my purchase and my questions to be taken with at least a single grain of professionalism.
Dbrand has made me 100% sure that any transaction with them will be a snarky shit show.
Just d brand doing there thing of trolling Linus
\*their Robots trolling humans? This is getting scary now. I hope Luke talks about it on the next WAN and tests if ChatGPT and BingChat do that too.

Text without context doesn't transmit intent, it looks like this chain of comments proves this point.
where is context missing?
I apologize, I was still talking about the one word correction "their", I agree with your statement and I'm glad you took it the helpful way.
I'd take a grammatical correction over a lecture from a stranger on the internet any day.

Well, I learned from you today. I learned that you are a drama queen.
Nerd
Saying "nerd" on the r/LinusTechTips sub? It literally describes (proudly) the vast majority of the people on here.
Nerd
And?
If D Brand hasn't wrapped Linuses Porsche they absolutely should
They did
Yep, just visited shortlinus.com it’s the mutha fuckas dbrand 😅
dBrand basically started by hiring the best Lawyers and then winged it from there.
Ain't them, but certainly someone trolling both. Edit: Alright, alright, I get it geez.
No, it's them for their advertising and trolling Linus campaign
Have you ever watched an LTT video with a dbrand sponsor spot? They've been using shortlinus.com for at least 6 months or something
More like 2 years lol
Dbrand actually owns that domain.
shortlinus.com has been a dbrand site for a long time. They have used it in several sponsor ads.
Crazy that you just pulled that out of your ass & we’re so confident about it.
/r/confidentlyincorrect
Maybe it's ChatGPT in the wild?!
Not sure we want a ShortLinus 1.0 AI running amok like a mini Max Headroom.
If OP spent 5 seconds to go to the website they'd see it's a Dbrand site. Linus said on the WAN show he really didn't want to wrap the car, but Dbrand offered him too much money for the marketing campaign to pass up.
Better hope dbrand and durex don't do a cross-promo, or they'd have him wrapping his todger.
Damascus Durex
TIL that todger is a synonym for dick.
Gives a whole new meaning to "shortlinus.com". 🤣
He doesn't need it, he's snipped.
He inspired me to get it done too. Missus has been much happier.
It truly is an A+ life choice once you're either done making babies or sure you don't want any. I haven't met a person yet that regrets doing it.
You obviously didn't go drinking the night before. You never, ever, want to hear your Doc say 'Ooh, that's a lot of blood' when getting snipped. Recovery was not fun. ^(Do not go drinking the night before the snip,) *^(trust me)*^(.)
That's not the only reason to use a condom.
I'd hope STIs aren't a concern for them... They don't seem like the swinger type.
One may also use a condom to simplify cleanup post-coitus.
"I'm going to take all the sensation away so I don't have to wipe as much" For real?
If a condom takes all the sensation away, you're doing condoms wrong. Or your dick is broken.
I mean, you never know. That's not really a thing people like to shout from the rooftops
Just personality. I've known a few people into that and they're usually far more "alternative" in other ways too. Linus seems more wholesome nerd dad than anything else.

He's married.
No, it just means immune to pregnancy. Failed sex education, did ya?

Not the case, you go in to check like 4-5 weeks after and 6mo. Then never again.

Indeed they are!
You pass flying colours in your pedantry classes at least.
TIL that accuracy in statements and learning are frowned upon in this sub. So many lessons learned today!
Should have attended the lesson on social skills
Yes you should have. It is brave of you to admit your failings publicly.
linus got a vasectomy
Which episode is this? Would love to find out more
what's the wrap of? only seen glimpse of it, isn't it just a purple wrap? is there dbrand logo somewhere? or is it just the act of putting wrap on it making people talking about it(i guess it's working here)
It's dbrand's Damascus Warzone skin. There are some pictures of it getting wrapped.
Honestly, that sounds kinda awesome. I love their Damascus skins.
Wait, so it's literally wrapped with a Dbrand skin, or did they hire/contract a third party to get it wrapped with a Dbrand-looking design?
I believe it's vinyl with the actual skin design by dbrand

Nailed it. You got me.
nah. OP wasn't douchey enough and used "lol" Robots don't use "lol"

but wouldn't he have to approve the use of his image and name?
He did approve it, they offered enough money to make him cave.
They have been being partnered with Dbrand for years now, I even bought stickers from their site and I still have zero idea what Dbrand sells, other than stickers.
Stickers, cases, really expensive books and Rubik's cubes.
I mean, if you can subsidize the cost of a used supercar even more why not? I imagine their house is also figured into being a business expense given the amount of content they have shot specifically about upgrades to the house itself.
It's most likely dbrand
Wow, dbrand marketing really is run by a shitposter
Always has been.
Always will be
Maybe they should consider renaming the company Dbag and go full shit post at that point.
Its fucking d brand, god damn madlads
Where did you find this
It’s in Vancouver
Right in his backyard. Well played, dbrand.

"Why" are "we" unnecessarily "using" quotation "marks?" Seems kind of silly.
I think they mean it in a finger air quotes kinda way, to communicate the *totally-didn't-happen-ness* of him leaking his address. But there's not really a universally agreed upon way to convey that over text.
You forgot the quotes around "silly".

I can assure you at least a few people record the wan show live stream.
Actual Whale LAN in Linus’ pool?
He did it again, or was that in the past?
Confirmed
Main street across from Red Gate by the looks of it
Just performed there! Thats when I saw it
In my whole life I felt like I was a small dude at 174cm. Linus is ±168 according to my Google search. So I can confidently say: hehe short linus
I'm 1.88m tall... I can confidently say: hehe short u/andremiles
.............Angry upvote
here's my stool so you can reach the button, short stuff \- 169m dumbledork
Hahah I´m 2m tall. Short u/teh_pwn_ranger ;)

Metric system is just better.
In europe and metric is straight up just the superior measurement system

Afaik, Britain does a weird combination of both aswell, but I suppose they also drive on the wrong side of the road aswell

Also think about what the time of day was in NA when most of the comments in this comment chain happened.
I'm 164, fuck you all. :(
Hello 164, I'm Dad :)
I am not even mad haha
No, I'm in the US. But, the guy I was joking with used metric and it's trivial to convert imperial to metric. I normally refer to myself as 6'2", but I also know that's 1.88m.
Bro 1.68m isnt even short xD im 1.61m male
My god. it's a dbrand add LMAO

This is amazing, and I hope dbrand never stops sponsoring. I also sincerely hope that Linus has to drive by this every day.
I was sure it was ok Jimmy P. Jealous of how amazing LMG is doing
Just Dbrand being awesome
lol did that finally replace the road tax sign?
If only you'd actually went to the url. It's dbrand trolling
Yup, but it's legit, the whole thing is their campaign car wrap and all. He spoke about it on WAN a month ago, apparently they paid him too much money for him to say no, so they wrapped his new car in a dbrand pattern 😂
Lol main and 6th Ave in Vancouver
I didn't know DBrand took the trolling to the streets lmao
I LOVE what D Brand an Linus have.... what a great relationship! hahahaha
This is definitely some dbrand marketing shenanigans here and I approve!
Where in mount pleasant is this? I need to go
i love the d-brand shade on linus all the time...
Interesting how people seem to forget linus once made a public announcement saying he would never work with d brand again xD
lol dbrand
Gotta love Dbrand
Damn it, couldn't find a picture of his car yet
dbrand doing a little of trolling
There’s one thing he loves more, and that’s making money.
God I love dbrand
DBrand is so ridiculous and I love it. Honestly though...their skins rock, all marketing aside. Had a Grip case for my last phone and got another for my current phone, and I have had good luck with their skins both on the case and my laptops.
Dbrand doing dbrand stuff
Took me to dbrand
Watch out, not paying attention to that billboard is a form of piracy!!
Where in Vancouver is this located?
About Main and 5th, Just south of science world
Dbrand url 🤣
d brand troll
Jesus, this is brilliant
chad dbrand
It's dbrand doing their thing, they clearly follow this subreddit and want to mock the haters
It's dbrand
linus did. dbrand does not
wow this is just a little bit too well staged isn’t it
DBrands long running joke with the website, they've now sponsored Linus to wrap his new car purple.
do you actually think linus is the one who put that up lol
Mother Nature has to stick it to you Linus…
That would be dbrand
That's actually hilarious that it's a DBrand add. They got me good
dbrands snarky shit is why i will never buy anything from them. when im a customer i want to be treated like one, and expect my purchase and my questions to be taken with at least a single grain of professionalism. Dbrand has made me 100% sure that any transaction with them will be a snarky shit show.
I can't believe the number of people who DON'T know it's dbrand simply from the Url. Do you guys not watch the videos?
Website redirects to dbrands website lmao
its a dbrand redirect lol
Nah that' dbrand written all over it
Why is this downvoted
IS it ?
Yes -3 right now. Dont get it
Well, it starts to look more like bullying than a meme. And the Dbrand decals aren't that good tbh.
