Hm...most of what is presented in this video is misleading, and some of it is an outright falsehood.


You've got to consider the source for a minute. When the Stealth Bomber was developed, the public had no idea it existed until it was running missions in Desert Storm. If we hadn't had that war, we wouldn't have known until we did have one (Afghanistan?). During the Reagan administration, one tactic against communism was to convince them we had such amazingly advanced weapons that they would go bankrupt trying to keep up (see "Star Wars"). This included orbital lasers that would make us impervious to ICBM's, etc.

So, being as open as they are about this, which of these two tactics of military intelligence does this resemble?

I can't stick around to chat, e'rybody, I have to go upvote EVERYONE's videos! Why, you ask? Well, that's an excellent question. Because I can't downvote so... it's UPVOTE EVERYTHING DAY today and tomorrow and every day after that.

VideoSift 4.0 Roundtable (Sift Talk Post)

I like Edeot's nested quotes/comments idea. I think we could have some type of tree structure that will be collapsed for large threads with lots of different posts (like this one) and expanded for smaller threads. I think it would make strings like this easier to navigate. The reason most of us are here is to get the best videos on the web without having to spend the time wading through the rest. It would be nice if I could read a post like this and get the gist without having to read all 83 comments.

I also think the PQ needs some revamping. It literally makes sifting just a matter of time. It used to be a video would have to be good to get 10 people's attention within 2 days, now it has all the time in the world to get those ten people's attention. Maybe we could increase the required vote count every 6 months by 5 or after the 2 days expires than it needs to reach a certain votes:views ratio. I like the beggars canyon because I've had a lot of videos that just didn't get quite enough attention before PQ and got it there. I like Shepppard's idea of Death's Door, but use that INSTEAD of the beggar's canyon. Send a PQ video there for 3-4 days and then to the discard pile afterward. The way it is right now it's the only thing anyone below goldstar can use power points for, so why not have a video in there constantly? You've got nothing to lose and nothing else to spend those power points on.

Also, to add on to cybrbeast's idea, I'd like the channel names by the checkboxes for channels to be the same colors as they are when the video is viewed. Would make it much quicker when going through them.

New Idea: Power points need a revamp IMO. I like the idea, but we give them out for everything now (in lew of star points). Why not take away the auto-recharge on power points? Everyone would have to earn each point by helping the sift through maintance (fix deadpools), insight (applause), or financial support (donations). That way spending them on things like /promote and /quality will be something a bit more unique and make promote more useful since there wouldn't be 3 videos CONSTANTLY promoted to all queues at all times. It would also cut down the deadpool, which is growing since it stopped giving star points. Finally, It would be nice to remove the limit since there shouldn't be a limit on how helpful someone can be.

Zero Punctuation: Halo Wars

Aemaeth says...

I don't know what it more tragic: that Yahtzee has a general disdain for RTS because he tried HALO WARS or that he thinks Stormrise can fix that....

PS: Stormrise is one of the worst games I've played in years. After 5 minutes of that game, you'll quit and go back to X-Blades.
