Damn 3 bots in a row, that's impressive

Sounds like car forums

because all the modern issues solved in the current decade just have the original poster saying "solved it" and closing the thread with nothing else.

Correction: someone in 2009 had the same vague error message as you User replys "Thanks I solved it" with 0 explanation of what solved it

But the worst part is "Thanks guys i fixed it!" With no information on how it got fixed

Or when the first page of google results is from forums where other users are telling the OP to stop being lazy and Google it.

Or "Why don't you google it and click on the first thing that pops up" Uh... you mean this thread that I am reading right now?

This is giving me unpleasant flashbacks to when I first started out coding (That was a lie, I still can't figure out why my code isn't working and when it works, I also dk why)

Nothing feels quite as lonely then realizing no one on the entire internet can help you with your tech problem

My exact thoughts, and condolences

exactly like my escape key only works on some programs on mac,

Yeah. Like ‘Step 4: click “Advanced Settings”’ but there’s no advanced settings option anywhere to be found

@@machete660 Lmao exactly - Now you're looking for help on why the setting is missing, digging deeper and deeper until you don't even remember why you were looking for a fix in the first place

Still haven't been able to change my Microsoft account, found a guy who had every problem I faced till the last part of the interface missing, chatted and somehow the guy solved it, told me the solution and still didn't work. At least I can proudly say I'm the person with the most bugged Microsoft account in the world.

if it's a youtube video, many of those are scams, fake accounts commenting to generate traffic.

"Select menu and click on the advanced settings." Then you select menu and the advanced settings option is greyed out and you have no idea why.

This happens to me after the windows 10 update that chrome stop work and has use Edge. I try everything i.e. clear DNS work for 1 minute and stop work again. But end up use Edge. Chrome starts work again when M$ change Edge to Chrome So clear the knows about bugs as the fix it.

@@dr.mailman they say knowledge gets you power but you're not getting either

I find a lot of 3rd party IT forums equally hostile, but in the opposite way. Microsoft will have a lot of useless solutions and people saying they tried everything. 3rd party sites will have zero solutions and the case marked as [Solved]. Then when you try to find out what the fix was you get told you need to post your own logs, even if it's literally the same issue.

And the "12 people found this helpful" is so damn true. I'll see a dumb, generic answer from the Microsoft person assigned to that forum and it'll have that below it. IT DIDN'T FIX THE PROBLEM. HOW IS IT HELPFUL?

Sooooo true, the MS forums are abysmally awful. In over a decade, I don't recall having ever found a helpful response on them. I still occasionally misclick a search result that leads me to one, and each time am still surprised how they can be so bad after scanning over a lengthy (repetitive) thread that answers nothing in the end. Answers are generally answered in such an obtuse manner, without any context to the original question. They don't bother taking into account whether the person asking is competent and obviously tech-savvy, or an old grandma who is asking how to minimize a window, they answer it the same way regardless.

And who the F@#$# are the 12 people that found this answer helpful g*ddammnit?!?

@@EnigmaticRPG You are correct in a way. They are contracted, usually very tech-illiterate people from a third world county just reading off a script. Big tech is so greedy and scummy they actively block "right-to-repair" activities, cripple help forums, hire the least-talented webpage developers to create low-effort pages that are designed to create confusion and force you off user-commentating, all to force customers to just buy a new product. It works, very well, and they will never stop.

Ways it goes: 1: Like the sketch 2: Like this comment 3: A fix behind a dead link 4: Someone writes out a simple solution that you swore you tried already and it works

Good direction, I believe. Joel is Tarantino tier talent.

@@retroxify seconded, comment for visibility

They all do a good job of "awkward", as does everyone in Joel's videos. Even his RPG ones. I think that's tied to his age, the generation he's part of, where acting like you're awkward and helpless and don't know what to do, is de rigeur. Something something society something. Hopefully he'll grow out of it, though what sort of videos will he make then? What sort of man will Joel grow up into?

@@greenaum Tarantino was an apt comparison. Not every talented director needs to be Spielberg or Ford Coppola. If you're good enough at what you do, folks will let you keep making the gratuitously violent love letters to 70's pulp - or the deeply awkward and real interactions of modern-day humans in all their dysfunctional weirdness.

@@ropeatemyluck8583 DId you read the first comment right above that?

Whenever I figure out how to do some annoying thing for computers I go to the video I learned it from and confirm it, and comment the solution on a few other videos. Comments like that have helped me in the past.

@@travv88 : You're one of the world's heroes.

I've gone out of my way to make an account just to clearly explane how I solved it in my case. Its such a let down to only find theyve solved the problem 6 years ago and they don't want to tell anyone or follow up to the guy who said 2 years before me 'Same please help'...Long after I've forgotten maybe 9 years from someone's going to have that same issue and see that I got their back.

Or when you post a detailed question and just get banned half an hour later

Ikr it's like they mostly probably dealt with a very different version than yours. All hopes go crashing down again. 😂

@@keithdick3720 Its how I do it.

recently i really, really wanted to get to know this girl and realized she didnt want to know me and well it felt like shit when shr ghosted me

I've visited many abandoned forums of old games many times and I know this feeling all too well. 8+ years since the last post, some of the last ones talking about where everyone has been or a friend that has passed away. Many many promising projects that have long since been abandoned with the last post usually being the creator talking about a hardware or irl issue preventing them from continuing it. And here I am many years after the last person. Wandering around this ruin of what was a lively home for many. Breaks my heart to see places like this. But I guess that's just how life is. You gotta move on, cant stay in the same place forever now can you.

@Skyblue Flash 10 years from now someone will see this, and wonder how you're doing.

In that case, let's get to know the poster! How you doin', StuartRobertM? Hows your mental health? What are your dreams? How was your day? My favorite color is white and blue, and I tried to shoot a zipline out of a crossbow today. Doesn't work like in the movies. XP

@@RanstoneHello, bud. Thanks for asking but in all honesty I don't want to drone on about how broken my life is. Rather I want to know a lot more about you shooting a zipline out of a crossbow. Why were you doing it? Were you trying to put one up or just testing if it did work like in the movies and video games? I would love to see a video of it, btw. You got one or plan to make one?

His delivery couldn't have been any better. So relatable.

The minute the girl started talking it hit my soul hard…we’ve all been there

I particularly find his visiting series to be relatable

And he's been more than religious with his uploads! I swear the man uploads every other day!

When it comes to crafting quantity leads to quality :)

It's absolutely impossible that anyone would put out nothing but pure gold regularly and consistently. Even geniuses have their duds. So where are Joel's?? Seems fishy.

They’d probably say: “我他妈的读不懂.”

This is guaranteed to happen.

Lord

i don’t think they’re going to have the same problems with their windows ten 100 years in the future

Never have I felt so close to another soul And yet so helplessly alone

Is Microsoft own PR department liking their own post!

It makes me feel similar to when I see a cute kitten video posted 10 minutes ago with 4 dislikes on it. Who are these 4 people disliking a video about kittens?! Why?! What could possibly be so offensive about furry balls stumbling around and meowing that within 10 minutes 4 people said "Nope, hate it, its stupid and its bad." Maybe people just like clicking buttons, idk

Exactly. They should tell us how many people found it unhelpful, and how many people wanted to punch the screen.

They suggest clean installs more often than I restart my computer. If their computer was a person, they’d “clean install” more often than it takes to brainwash a person.

"Did your friend sit on your pet hamster? We recommend a clean install of Windows 10."

Gosh. That's so true it physically hurts

wow, you didn't have to personally attack me like that.....

"chugged a jar of cinema juice" is breathtaking criticism

He really should write and direct a movie.

I agree, I notice how well he uses the torch. Those shots he just has a single thing in light and surrounded by darkness is great. And i love the nature angles too, they really do make me feel I'm also climbing that hill or going deeper into the forest

i also love that at the end when the camera is further away joel is the only one fully illuminated by the fire putting emphasis that katie is not a real person there to help him

And, Katie's voice is just.spot.on. This is brilliant.
