Can a motorbike helmet protect you from medieval weapons? and what's more protective, the motorbike helmet of a steel medieval helmet?

In terms of accessibility they really are. Like, you're not gonna find kevlar or metal armor in 99% of places, but nearly every high school has a whole team's worth of football gear.

[@markfergerson2145]

When I open KZbin it defaults to the Suggested Videos page. The first three are always either by creators I’m subscribed to (*if* they’ve uploaded something since my last session) or are videos similar to others that I’ve watched several of in my last session. That’s how it used to work, anyway. Then I go to my Notifications page and see uploaded videos that didn’t appear on my Suggestions page. This is as Shad has said, since maybe January. Today I saw one video by someone I’m subscribed to, but it wasn’t Shad’s video even though it showed on my Notifications page. Nor did any of the other new videos on my Notifications page show on my Suggestions page except the one. I almost always get notifications from channels that I’m subscribed to- it’s very rare that I don’t and it doesn’t seem to correlate with their popularity or the topic of a video or the overall theme of the channel. Basically I’m not seeing consistency one way or another. That’s just my experience with my list of subscriptions and where I live. I consider myself fortunate that I get most notifications.

[@bad-people6510]

I had to watch two or three videos a day for three days before I started getting recommendations from Shad again. As opposed to watching two minutes of one video from a guy I've never seen before and then half of my recommendations are from that guy's channel. And I'm still getting as many recommendations for Skall as Shad and I haven't watched one of his in about two months. (Nothing against Skall, he just hasn't been a priority)

[@andyappleton3353]

It's painfully obvious that yutoub is completely corrupt. They make comments that state opinions that they don't agree with disappear for no reason. They try to limit content that they don't agree with. I'm disgusted by them. Right now though, they are the best content channel online. People need to make that change.

[@NoobTamer]

Yet KZbin has no problem recommending me two channels with like 50 viewers each having beef with each other. Their recommendation system is entirely broken. If the people I'm subscribed too haven't uploaded, it takes me a solid few minutes to actually find something I will watch. This wasn't the case 10 years ago. My tastes have not changed drastically over that time, or at least not enough for that much of an impact. The "Don't recommend this channel to Me" feature doesn't work either, I have used it on Cenk's Nephew's videos so many times, and yet I still get his trash in my feed.

Shadow ban 🔨

[@stevenwiederholt7000]

Same Here

[@pkz420]

Something to keep in mind is that motorcycle helmets are greatly compromised after the first impact. In theory if you even drop the helmet one time, you're supposed to throw it out. They are made to absorb impact energy while breaking and crushing. Like a crumple zone in a car, it bleeds off kinetic energy through the breaks. But only for the first strike. After that, even if it looks ok still, it is not. So all the tests here, after the first two sword strikes, are against a compromised and less effective helmet.

[@ModernDayKnight03]

Good point, I didn't know that!

[@toneh154]

Not strictly true.. A degree of truth but a lot of misunderstanding as to the design and function of the helmet components. The shell is not designed to break as a form of impact absorption, it's design is for penetration resistance and to resist breaking.. It's the poly-foam liner that is designed for impact absorption. Reality is, it's a sum of many variables as to whether the helmet is safe to use again or not. As such the recommendations are best practice but not requirements.

[@pkz420]

@@toneh154 What I stated is fact. The misunderstanding is all you. Stating "N-uh" does not disprove anything I said, but any google search will prove I am correct. EgsciencedirectDOTcom/science/article/abs/pii/S0263822311002133 The shell is absolutely designed to shatter and bleed off impact force. It is made from a composite that crushes under force. It is not a plastic or other solid that can take multiple strikes. It does *not resist breaking* at all it is very fragile, and intentionally designed that way. Arguing with easy to verify facts is a bit foolish.

[@TGPDrunknHick]

to be fair, helmets are designed for highspeed blunt impact. it's expected to have face hit the road. something like a sword or knife is pressure over a smaller footprint which is going to be very different. I'm personally not surprised but, I see why it could be.

Tbf, I don't even think it did that badly against the bec. Yes, the bec got through, but it did take a pretty big full force swing to do so. It's not exactly easy to pull one of those off in combat.

@@shadiversity Have you ever considered uploading content to Nebula? It's a subscription-based Streaming service that hosts 'deluxe' content by KZbinrs to bypass being demonetized or shadowbanned. Some of the KZbinrs who also upload to Nebula include Wendover Productions, Real Life Lore, City Beautiful, and TierZoo. These creators will upload a video to KZbin, which ends in a plug for Nebula, and then upload a longer unabridged video to Nebula. Since Nebula is a subscription-based streaming service, it is not dependent on ad revenue and is therefore safe from demonetization or shadowbanning. Ian McCollum from Forgotten Weapons has also started his own Streaming service, History of Weapons & War, in direct response to KZbin actively targeting gun-focused channels for demonetization and shadowbanning. Besides Forgotten Weapons, other KZbinrs with a presence on the service include Bloke On The Range, British Muzzleloaders, Legacy Collectibles, and the Royal Armouries. History of Weapons & War is also subscription-based, so demonetization should not be an issue. And if you aren't interested in joining either of the above-mentioned Streaming Services, you could always take the Lotus Eaters approach and start your own subscription-based Shadiversity Streaming Service, hosting Shadiversity and Shadlands videos, Knights Watch podcasts, and Game Knight let's-plays. It would also be a convenient place to sell _Shadow of the Conqueror_ and its sequels, Shadiversity & _Shadow of the Conqueror_ merch, and various Medieval-related products. You could also offer to host videos and merch for related/ allied KZbin channels, such as Metatron, Lindybeige, Living Anachronism, Jill Bearup, Thegn Thrand, Micah Curtis, and maybe even Sargon's non-Lotus-Eaters/non-political content. As soon as you're able to get the Shadiversity Streaming Service its own Roku channel and its own app on Apple and Google's app stores, KZbin demonetization will no longer be able to hurt you.

I know it's a simple thing but I love when you all flourish the swords. You obviously practice and you have such confidence. Whereas, I watch the dang blade like a hawk so as not to smack myself. Also, I love your videos. Please don't quit. You're one of my favorite creators.

So I didn't know if it's reflective of a larger trend, but the main channel videos are showing up in my feed again.

[@casinferneycf45]

Ooh this is going to be a good one.

I owned one of the broadswords from Honshu.. Very nice blade . I touched up the edge a little and it was slicing very nice .Great blades over all .

This video answers a question that I have needed answered for exactly 10 minutes(since it popped up in my notifications). Although I have only needed the answer for a short time, it is very much needed. Thanks, Shad and team! Keep up making great content!

Don't leave us shad

[@the-director]

You put that recent video out about not getting into reccomendations... now I see this right after you publish. I was getting hardly any of your videos in my feed. Interesting...

[@bradleymorgan8223]

I'm happy to report that this video showed up in my feed as i would expect it to! have my watch time and engagement

[@Kaeldorn]

I've actually been starting to get recommendations much more often. I decided to resubscribe after watching some videos from the past year or so, which have been a lot of fun to watch. Especially the zombie apocalypse themed and crafting videos. I was pleasantly surprised to find that none of the attitude from the Knights Watch videos was shining through anymore (I really got burnt out on that), and that it's back to good old nerd culture positivity.

[@longWriter]

Maybe you could consider briefly shilling your Shadiversity videos early on in your Knightswatch videos---almost like doing an ad? You do cool stuff that's worth watching; I wouldn't mind ads like _those_ in Knightswatch, especially since the act of blacklisting a channel is the kind of political thing worth talking about!

[@ModernDayKnight03]

Oooh, this is an idea I haven't seen yet!

[@chasenk00019]

I made a point to watch since I finally got a notification.
