[prime solstice]

wait if i shared a n.w.a song would it be against the rules

[summer nova]

I could make a YouTube video with a bunch of words not allowed in the server and post it here, still against the rules

[stoic beacon]

If you think that is inappropriate for a community that revolves around Linus, you’re nuts…

[neon mesa]

Really

Seems like sniper's vid view average is not even that good

LTT regularly perform better

I doubt she brings that much money to have heightened immunity to the rules

[calm swan]

not really

actually

[summer nova]

Imagine if ltt burnt down from an electrical fire

[calm swan]

yeah ltt does

[summer nova]

That would be pretty ironic

[neon mesa]

Either way, she gotta go.

It's always these reaction tubers generating drama.

Not to mention LTT has multiple channel

That do well

[summer nova]

LMG has multiple channels

[calm swan]

based charlie and muta shitting on her (as they should)

[summer nova]

Wait does ltt own like techqwiki and stuff? And how can it?

Like dosnt the person filming the videos “own” the channel

[vapid moss]

all these are lmg

[vapid smelt]

[neon mesa]

Ah so linus' cameramen owns LTT

[summer nova]

What says your the owner of a YouTube channel

Well there’s literally nothing saying you own a YouTube channel right?

[neon mesa]

Having access to the account?

[calm swan]

what?

[summer nova]

Dosnt mean you own it

[calm swan]

do you not know how a company works?

[summer nova]

Googles gonna pull a “all the channels are actually owned by us” thing in the future

[stoic beacon]

They already sort of do. That’s why they advertise on it…

[summer nova]

There’s nothing saying they legally own it tho right?

Yeah it seems like a very google thing

Anyways it’s 11:00 cya guys

[neon mesa]

If google pulls such shit then they can no longer claim safe harbor and will get sued for every minute of copyrighted material ever posted on YouTube

Question, does apple still licence their GPU tech for the M1/M2 or did they actually finally make their own?

[golden talon]

Apple silicon has had custom apple gpus since A11 bionic in the iphone X

2017 to be precise

everything from then forward has been custom apple graphics

[full fossil]

The technology was still licensed for the bionic chips

To be precise from imagination technologies

[golden talon]

powerVR was cut off with the A10 fusion

[graceful burrow]

Ngl they're kinda cracked too

[ionic abyss]

ok since when does ad free youtube have ads on youtube

[golden talon]

since never unless the ad free youtube in question is premium

[ionic abyss]

no i just got a ad for the ad free youtube plug in

[golden talon]

o

lmao the wording of your sentence was so weird

[ionic abyss]

but then right after i disabled all ad blockers i got 8 ads forad blockers in a 20 minute video

for ad*

[gentle slate]

Prolly using chrome

I be seeing chrome users catching adblock blocks left and right. Firefox users be chilling

[vapid smelt]

im still chilling with chrome

[opal thunder]

I'm chilling with Edge.

Probably a small selection of users are affected as an experiment to test if it pisses people off or maybe its location based atm?

[gentle slate]

I got an adblock for the adblock blocker blocker for my adblock blocker.

[manic torrent]

chrome works fine for me ||with premium||

[tired glade]

Oh, video on steam deck

[restive lion]

Nope it triggers on Firefox too

[gentle slate]

Huh. I've never seen one

[fierce moth]

Idk yt premium is a pretty good deal to me

[restive lion]

It's still in A/B testing, but the detection is entirely client side so you can still override it

anyone have any idea what happened to the Canada Computers website? It seems to just redirect to their facebook page now. www.canadacomputers.com

i have tried a number of ways. maybe it doesn't like ad blocking

Just got Super Mario Wonder 2 days early for my sibling at a undisclosed retailer by acting dumb cause they had the game card hidden kinda on the top shelf, hopefully Nintendo doesn’t hunt me down

tried using brave and chrome

[pulsar violet]

Try clearing caches

[pulsar violet]

Dk my sibling plays the switch and letting them enjoy it

I don’t play the switch but occasionally Mario Kart with others

[pulsar violet]

Or inspect the page and preview through a mobile device

To see if that fixes anything

[burnt zealot]

nope, still won't work

same thing on Edge. I think that's the first time in years that i have loaded edge for anything

works on my laptop. so strange

[pulsar violet]

Yea that’s weird that that would be a redirect

Is it the same search engine?

Cause here are the 2 different websites that top SEO on Google

[burnt zealot]

I have tried through duckduckgo and google

i tried using the link on the fb page

typing the link in

not too worried. they don't have what I am looking for anyway

Do you click on the website or autofill?

Oh ok

I use a ways Memory Express as they have multiple locations for in Calgary and Canada Computers have none here

better question would be if anyone has any idea where to find the Fractal design universal multibracket type A

https://www.fractal-design.com/products/accessories/mounting/universal-multibracket-type-a-2-pack/black/ from fractals website....

... yeah fractal sites legit links it 😭

[burnt zealot]

ah, thats strange i could not find it before. every other one came up

thank you

[pulsar violet]

Yea np

[burnt zealot]

not sure if the site is different in Canada but I don't see buy now options on the fractal website. Just has find retailers and then links you to everything they have

I was for sure just using the wrong keyword

[elfin jetty]

[shut trench]

tell me more

[manic torrent]

well marty, I'm glad you asked, you see, I see send google an undisclosed sum of money on a monthly basis, and in return, they fuck off the ads.

[shut trench]

nice

[manic torrent]

it's undisclosed because I can't remember how much it is, because that's how much of a baller I am.

[burnt zealot]

Don't worry, they keep changing it anyway.

[vapid smelt]

can we switch it so google gives me money and in return i fuck off with my ads?

[burnt zealot]

Just for fun, I priced 20 8tb SSD's - $13,599.80 CAD before tax vs 20x 8tb HDD - $3,999.80

[vapid smelt]

no compare the speed and reliability

[burnt zealot]

why would I need the speed for linux ISO's? and 2million hour mtbf is quite enough

It would be nice but I have better ways to spend an extra almost 10k

[manic torrent]

..... yes and now compare 1tb

[burnt zealot]

That's actually quite funny and unexpected. SSD's - $1,499.80 vs HDD's $1,799.80

i'm pricing NAS HDD's btw

[manic torrent]

yes, that's the point

[burnt zealot]

if only 20tb was a lot today. the 50tb or so I have now is barely cutting it.

[vapid smelt]

i think its time to talk about your data hoarding

[ionic abyss]

is this a good controller https://www.amazon.com/Switch-Controller-Adjustable-Sensitivity-Controllers-Nintendo/dp/B0C5RB1KXP

seems to be to cheap for the feature set

[burnt zealot]

What can I say, I love Linux ISOs

[vapid smelt]

this is better

[ionic abyss]

that lacks hall effect sticks

[burnt zealot]

Hey, thats what I use in my submersible. want to take a ride in it?

[ionic abyss]

ok hall effect sticks back buttons for $20 after coupon

do the buttons not feel good?

[vapid smelt]

40 4tb drives are 8,000 cad and 80 2tb drives are 7,200cad

[burnt zealot]

+10k for the storinator i would need

[ionic abyss]

oooh i found that controller with rgb for $20

if the chinese can make a switch pro controller with hall effect sticks and macro buttons with analog triggers and "oled" rgb for $20 how does nintendo justify their pro controller price

[red breach]

the chances of a $23 amazon controller actually having hall effect sticks is about 0

[vapid smelt]

they dont use child labor

[red breach]

source? replacement hall effect joysticks alone cost more than that

[ionic abyss]

if the controller doesnt have hall effect then you return it for a refund

[red breach]

I mean, you're asking a question that's basically "how do chinese companies make 16TB microSD cards for $8" they don't. sure, you can return them, maybe

but they're banking on enough people buying it that don't know squat to buy it, use it for a while, and get stuck with it. Why knowingly buy a scam product?

[burnt zealot]

80 HDD would be about 800watts of power

[vapid smelt]

buys 16tb ssd looks inside finds 16gb sd card

[red breach]

if you only have $20 for a PC game controller, go out and buy the nicest condition Xbox 360 wired controller you can find.

[vapid smelt]

rather use this

[red breach]

Aside from the fact those things are pretty horrible, yeah me too

I'm not saying the 360 controller is "good", just that... they're built like tanks and if you get one that's relatively schmoo-free you can pretty much expect all the buttons to work and the analog sticks to give you a mostly-circular output. Which just isn't the case for no-name crap

[ionic abyss]

i use offical xbox wireless or a bionic vulkan or a 8bitdo ultimate

the vulkan is oddly comfortable

[red breach]

8BD makes pretty decent stuff IME as well

[ionic abyss]

my last 8bitdo ultimate was a lemon

[hallow scarab]

FWIW, 8bitdo has a great PC controller sub-$20, think it’s called the Ultimate W

[ionic abyss]

it droped from the desk onto a carpeted floor and both triggers l2/r2 broke off

[red breach]

even if the "youngest" 360 controllers are 10+ years old now, I'd still want to go over to gamestop/localgamestore and pay them $20 over something aftermarket-y

[ionic abyss]

https://www.ebay.com/itm/134608812428

a good controller for the price

and more comfortable than it looks

Idk what kinda spending habits you have but to most people 100$ will definitely matter

[wind pulsar]

Who cares about the money, the point was it's spendy as shit

[harsh quartz]

Most people will care about the money :p

[wind pulsar]

🙄

Yes, ignore the point completely

Whatever, if you don't want to say anything meaningful that's fine

[harsh quartz]

My point was why are they saying it’s 800 when it’s 700, if you changed the point then that’s not on me

[wind pulsar]

Because they made an error, and at the pricepoint you're gonna be building if you buy a 13900KS the $100 don't matter anyway

Clearly you haven't helped anyone build a high-end system here

[harsh quartz]

Just cause you deal with whales doesn’t mean we all do :p

[wind pulsar]

In 70% of cases people don't care if it's a $100 more or not as long they have the sweet sweet KS flex

My plan is to take apart the gpu and put them in an ultra Sonic cleaning filled with 99.9 IPA and then use like a toothbrush or something to clean off as much as i can.

Before i go any further is there anything i need to lookout for?

This is the house it was in

[vapid cypress]

Not possible anymore

[tame mirage]

Do you guys think a buzzing sound only at a specific RPM could be related to failing bearings in a GPU fan? It’s not hitting a cable or anything from what I can tell, no heat issues or anything, it just buzzes at a certain RPM. You go above it, it stops, you go below it, it stops.

So does that sound like bearings to you guys?

Or perhaps just an off-kilter fan

[full fossil]

Just sounds to me like the fan resonates at that rpm

[tame mirage]

It’s almost like a clicking sound though

Like it’s hitting a cable, but upon inspection, it’s nowhere near any cable

[full fossil]

Yeah, when it resonates it basically shakes it. Potentially enough to bump something

If it is, avoid that rpm because it will fuck the bearings

[tame mirage]

I’ve gotta figure out a way to measure that specific rpm range that it happens then

I should note that this is just me here, but

I personally cringed a bit when Linus on the PC secret shopper episode said that he "wished it was a number"

I'd much rather not have to deal with phone numbers, thank you very much

For me, even getting offered a phone number as an option gives me massive panic attacks

I dislike calling someone because of the emotional and personal distance in the conversation which to me is very hard to handle

[hearty spear]

opposite:
For the average user a phone number is dramatically better than a URL for tech support.
He was entirely correct.

He didn't say "GET RID OF" the URL. He just wanted to see a phone number.

And if even seeing a phone number gives you panic attacks? That's something to see a professional about

You would want to download this

[restive lion]

antiviruses exist to stop grandma from downloading more ram

Random question: do people still find the USB port colours useful, or do people nowadays casually ignore/overlook them?

[hearty spear]

the average user has no fucking clue what the colors mean

Enterprise one isn't, they give warranty on fail

[full fossil]

Nvme driver support, uses driver and gets it to detect

[hidden geyser]

I remember my ancient old laptop (which is now scrap somewhere) had USB 3.0 as black, and there was a bit of chatter about how annoying that was

[vapid cypress]

I use to do that a lot when I pirated games

[hearty spear]

if your board doesn't boot off NVME, then yes, clover should work to fix that

[hidden geyser]

Will that be okay nowadays?

[full fossil]

It doesn’t I think, (no I’m sure)

[restive lion]

piracy world is significantly different. although a lot of those cracks end up with data siphons in them anyways lol

[hearty spear]

then yeah, clover should do it. That's one thing it was made for.

It’s a old motherboard, hp

Hot take: the usb specs nowadays make sense but is at the same time a bloody mess

[hearty spear]

no, they fed a room full of monkeys cocaine and that was how they changed a semi-sensible naming scheme into absolute nonsense

[vapid cypress]

I mean there was nothing they could have stolen its not like the modern internet where you have hundreds of accounts and bank details or whatever, except for them pesky viruses

[full fossil]

My old computer from 2013 supports nvme but a new computer from 2016 doesn’t

Why

[hidden geyser]

Ie: USB 3.2 gen 2x2

Is this tech anymore, or are we now in woodworking?

[restive lion]

usb has been a disaster for a while

[full fossil]

USB 3.0 is good?

[hidden geyser]

USB 3.0 what?

[restive lion]

which USB 3 though

[full fossil]

All

Haha idk

[hearty spear]

around 2016/2017 is when it became kinda a standard to include, my 2016 6th gen board has 2x m.2 slots

[prime solstice]

But what if I need to know the difference between my 2x2 plank and a usb

[vapid cypress]

I mean a USB is an USB it's not like you need specs to run an office mouse

[hidden geyser]

I already said this; but are we going to have 2x4 now??

[restive lion]

at least with USBA-3 they were coloured... nowadays with USB-C you just don't know

[full fossil]

Mine has 3 slots but doesn’t support anything other than sata ssds or hdd

[restive lion]

HID is slightly different

[prime solstice]

Sweet the amount of construction workers I’d make mad saying I have them but it’s just all usb drives

[hearty spear]

SATA M.2 was a thing, too

Keyboards and Mice are also only USB 2

[restive lion]

there's a reason that say, KVMs have dedicated HID ports

[full fossil]

if you use usb 2.0 in 2023 don’t speak to me

Pls just don’t

[restive lion]

usb 2 is fine for HID devices

[full fossil]

No.

[restive lion]

[hearty spear]

most PCs still ship with USB 2 bucko, WTF is your point?

[prime solstice]

USB is usb it’s all the same to me

[full fossil]

WHY

[restive lion]

because usb-2 is still a useful port?

[hearty spear]

because 480mbps is more than fast enough for fucktons of devices

[restive lion]

your mouse does not need a 10 gig port.

[full fossil]

when was it released

When was 3.0 released

[restive lion]

you seem to be taking the "mobile phone" approach to this

[full fossil]

Exactly

[vapid cypress]

Everything is becoming USB c now

[prime solstice]

If my mouse had a 10 gig port I’m just gonna use a mouse from now on

[hearty spear]

USB 2 came out 20ish years ago.
And it doesn't matter. Even high end systems still ship with USB 2.

[restive lion]

just because it's older doesnt mean it doesnt have a usecase

[manic torrent]

USB C is a connector, USB2 is part of the USB C spec.

[prime solstice]

Ngl ps2 is better than usb

[full fossil]

Fscts

[manic torrent]

incorrect, PS/2 is not hotswap

[vapid cypress]

For keyboards

[prime solstice]

And mouses

[manic torrent]

"hello I am a kid and I don't know shit about fuck"

[vapid cypress]

Yes

[full fossil]

Does usb 1.0 have use case

[hidden geyser]

Hell, there are a handful of BRAND NEW DEVICES that struggle to saturate even USB 1.1

[prime solstice]

I use a ps2 mouse for gaming

[restive lion]

but it still works when your USB bus shorts out

[prime solstice]

But you can get usb to ps2 adapters

[restive lion]

or the drivers decide theyve had enough of your bullshittery ( )

[full fossil]

Cutting corners using 20 year old tech is common now

[manic torrent]

USB 1.0 is still used, It's just that you don't find host busses at that speed on desktops anymore

[vapid cypress]

Just like apple

[hearty spear]

you seem awfully butthurt over USB 2 existing
why?

[manic torrent]

out of all of us, I'm pretty sure I'm the only one who has read any USB specs.

[hidden geyser]

You would be surprised at how many workplaces and instituions demand for USB 1.1 exclusively
Their reasoning is... comically flawed, but with their position nothing can ever be done to change their minds

[full fossil]

I’m not butthurt but how much does it cost to make usb2 than usb 3

[hearty spear]

2000$ Z790 Motherboard:
Still includes 2x USB 2 Motherboard headers on the board

[restive lion]

usb-2 is cheaper on the boards resources

[hearty spear]

USB 2 is cheaper and easier to implement on most devices

[vapid cypress]

Yeah if you need it for something specific

I doubt anybody cares about USB specs if you are plugging in a mouse

[manic torrent]

and I wish they never had to 😉

[hidden geyser]

And I need to repeat; we are very far from a world where every single USB connection would easily saturate past 480 mbps

And thus USB 2.0 will stay

[vapid cypress]

If only someone would name them right

[restive lion]

the rest of us dont get paid to fix the lord almighty smiting our packets because of electrical usage

[full fossil]

Ye but will manufacturers make better usb stuff if there was better usb speeds on pcs

Maybe 🤔

[manic torrent]

there IS better USB speeds.

[restive lion]

omw to use thunderbolt 5 for my keyboard

[full fossil]

Apparently according to one 2.0 is the most common

[hidden geyser]

Much easier said than done, buddy.

There is this thing called scope of usage.

[manic torrent]

... yes but basically every desktop board ALSO has 3

[full fossil]

Oh ok

[hearty spear]

not if it costs them more, or takes more effort to make.

USB 2 is cheap and easy to implement. That's why they do it.

Fuck: Cheap USB Sticks have the 4 pins printed on the fuckin' chip itself

[manic torrent]

I use a thunderbolt port to CHARGE my keyboard that is connected over bluetooth.

[hidden geyser]

You cannot just andomly demand devices to all saturage 2.0 and make use of 3.x

[manic torrent]

not that it matters on a desktop, but USB2 also uses way less power

[restive lion]

surely the keeb doesnt use tb thought

usb-c PD should suffice?

[hearty spear]

and, unless i'm mistaken, it also uses less CPU Resources to push data?

[full fossil]

Thunderbolt port never heard of it

[manic torrent]

no, but a TB port is the port I had 😄

[restive lion]

understandable

[hidden geyser]

It does not matter at all about tech or abilities, if there is no NEED for the scope of the item in connection, then it will still use USB 2.0
There is no way around this

[hearty spear]

if you've never heard of thunderbolt, I'm not sure you're qualified to have an opinion about USB 2 still existing

[full fossil]

mb 😆

[manic torrent]

thunderbolt is what became USB4, basically

[full fossil]

Oh ok

[manic torrent]

and is the successor to firewire

[restive lion]

mmm firewire ports

those were fun

[hearty spear]

I miss firewire, it was a great spec.
Fuckin' apple borking the standard.

[echo canopy]

Razer made one just for a 9000hz mice

Afaik tho it’s the only one in existence

[pure olive]

[echo canopy]

Going past 1k does not cause problems except if you play a older version of Minecraft

USB 3.0 actually takes some relevant steps back….. it only supports USB-PD over USB-C for some asinine reason while USB 2.0 supports it over A, B, and C.

USB 1.0 lacks any USB-PD support for pretty obvious reasons

[manic torrent]

USB-PD is part of the USB C spec, not 1/2/3/4

[echo canopy]

Thanks technicality police

It still enables backwards compatibility with usb 2.0 but only at 5 volts

[manic torrent]

.... I mean, it's exactly and entire relevant to what you're saying

because if it isn't USB-C, it's not USB-PD

[echo canopy]

it is, usb-pd extends usb 2.0

[fossil frost]

usb-pd extends to anything that runs over usb-c

usb1/2/3/4/11/thunderbolt/anything, because usb-c is its own spec that happens at a lower level than usb-#

@hearty spear Back, I cleared secure boot keys and disabled legacy boot and the nvme drive has now popped up

[polar fern]

[quiet mural]

hello

[echo canopy]

Idk what your point is in linking this when it literally proves usb-PD supports type A and B

[regal tinsel]

I wish we could overclock PD

[echo canopy]

Correction, different Wikipedia article https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB_hardware#USB_Power_Delivery

[echo canopy]

Nothing says that you can’t. It’s just if the cable you’re using can actually handle higher amperage

Ignoring if the rest of the hardware is capable as well

[regal tinsel]

I meant on the recieving end, quest 3 still charges painfully slow

[echo canopy]

Oh that’s probably to keep the battery healthy

[regal tinsel]

I guess

[echo canopy]

Slower charging extends both the battery’s chemical lifespan as well as the devices battery life

If you want your phone to last longer on one charge throughout the day use a 5 watt charger

[regal tinsel]

I just keep a 20k mah battery hooked up to it instead

[echo canopy]

I wonder if they will extend usb-pd into stupid ranges like 120 volts. It already supports 48 volts at 5 amps for 240 watts

[polar fern]

My point in posting it was to give people resources to learn but okay

[prime solstice]

This is actually really cool

[mossy totem]

[sleek reef]

[golden talon]

They prolly fucked something up again LMAO

[dapper whale]

[golden talon]

Gamers Nexus needs to expose linus again

[dapper whale]

JK

[plain kestrel]

Went back to finish watching it and it poofed away 😦

[slim mirage]

bruh you had me refreshing

[burnt herald]

I was about to say i just finished it. and Poof!

[thorn creek]

[north skiff]

No

[sleek reef]

I was half way through it XD

[rich meteor]

I was half way also hahahahaah

[plain kestrel]

Yeah , ran over to FP and was like... where it at.

[sleek reef]

wonder what happened

[burnt herald]

#BlameJake?

[lilac bear]

private for me too

[slim mirage]

redditors be redditing

[mossy totem]

nahh more like #blameluke frfr

[golden talon]

either copyright strike or they fucked something up in the video

the latter is more likely

[sleek reef]

damnnn'

[north skiff]

That’s a bummer secret shopper is a heavy hitter for them

[queen jewel]

i had just sat down with my pasta and was 1 minute in too

[dapper whale]

Colton's the one to blame he's always getting fired

[plain kestrel]

Since the FP link is dead now as well , prob an error or they got called out on something maybe from a company ?

[golden talon]

LTT needs to stop these fuckups lmao i thought Gamers Nexus wouldve tought them a thing or two

[wary salmon]

I was watching it and then suddenly it said when I was almost at the end error video private sheesh. So unfair I’ll never know how it ended

[fierce moth]

they should do a high end secret shopper

[wary salmon]

[fierce moth]

like a budget of 5k

[plain kestrel]

Just sat down with pasta too! - Its pasta salad but close!

[hot mulch]

Went down on floatplane too

[wind wadi]

Wtf did the new video just get pulled I was in the middle of it

[wary salmon]

Damn

[burnt herald]

ooof I bet the starforge reply was the reason.

[mossy totem]

its not a good thing to noticce

more and more screwups = not good

[burnt herald]

Linus claim of 300 shipping for starforge is incorrect. Its shipping 99 + international duties and taxes

[slim mirage]

damm this is why we should archive everything

[hot mulch]

How? Starforge was valid criticism

[north skiff]

What was the reply?

[dapper whale]

people who did see it what was in it yoiu think was the reason

[burnt herald]

Its on reddit,

[hot mulch]

2 screws missing, GPU is unplugged, more issues

[golden talon]

link please

[wary salmon]

[mossy totem]

wasnt that last year?

[hot mulch]

No

They didn't have starforge last time

[mossy totem]

oh im thinking of the starforge review

[golden talon]

Damn thats crazy. LTT hasn't learned shit from the GN Fiasco this means.

[tiny compass]

TLDR?

What happened?

[plain kestrel]

Yeah , the timing on this and the starforce tweet prob. lines up.

[rotund zinc]

Also just saying but by saying "international duties and fees are included in shipping" does mean shipping is 300 not 99.

[golden talon]

Starforge claims that the PC was damaged in shipping (which is honestly believable, PCs are ridiculously hard to ship assembled)

[odd sierra]

well, at least this time they responded by privating the private instead of adding an easy-to-miss pinned comment

[tiny compass]

How else would it have been damaged?

[rotund zinc]

Even then though, that's still their fault. If a customer receives a damaged system they have to make up for it. I don't think this one is LTTs fault.

[golden talon]

LTT thinks by a Starforge technician

[north skiff]

When did the video get posted

[slim mirage]

7 hours ago i think

[golden talon]

I'm not saying it's LTTs fault, but they should have considered that a possibility is the carrier's fault as theyve done in the past.

[odd sierra]

doesn't seem like they're perfect (or, really, on par) but at least they did what they said they'd start doing for critical mistakes like this

[tiny compass]

8 nvm 7

[slim mirage]

time do be flying these days

[north skiff]

Thats not very long I doubt the viewership was very high yet

[rotund zinc]

Ah I didn't get to that stage, apologies. I didn't realise they did actually blame it full on a technician.

[mossy totem]

LTT needs to take accountability for what happened, hopefully them taking down the video will address the concern coming from starforge

[ionic abyss]

so i assume the $3 aliexpress controller that has features comperable to the xbox elite and hall effect sticks is likely not as described

[slim mirage]

over half a million

[odd sierra]

whenever it gets republished i would really like to see how they address this inaccuracy lol

[rare holly]

Oh no they gonna have to spend 500$s worth of someones time to fix this 😭

[golden talon]

LMFAOOOO

[rare holly]

Won't they think of the small indie company 🥺

[hot mulch]

Guys clam down

[burnt void]

was literally in the middle of the video and it stopped right at the Omen PC. so i guess there was some inaccuracies about the Starforge PC? never got to it lol

[golden talon]

LTT damage control moment

[hot mulch]

GUYS BREAD! BREAD GUYS

[ionic abyss]

what happened now

[golden talon]

Mfs havent learned anything

[hot mulch]

Bread

[restive lion]

they received another broken pc from starforge

[burnt herald]

Wouldn't International duties still be considered "shipping" I mean the videos not exactly wrong, Shipping dutys and international taxes are a thing.

[rare holly]

Video stopped on the nzxt part for me and now star forge spoiled the ending 😞

[hot mulch]

Which is the whole point of secret shopper

[ionic abyss]

oh i saw that videop

[burnt void]

yeah just saw the tweet. video was removed while i was watching lol

[rotund zinc]

Plus if the seller packages in those duties as part of shipping then it is an accurate to say shipping was $300.

[burnt herald]

I agree.

[rare holly]

Y'all trying to stop a convo by posting bread lol

[restive lion]

yeah idk i dont see this as an ltt problem

[lilac bear]

LTT has fallen

[burnt herald]

https://twitter.com/LinusTech/status/1715060336271995281

[slim mirage]

honestly blame canada

[tiny compass]

That’s how anyone would think about it

[rare holly]

Obv didn't finish the video but did they pay 99 or 300?

[golden talon]

They didn't do a huge blunder like they did last time with GN
They just failed to consider possibilities

[vapid canyon]

What happened to the secret shopper video?

[rotund zinc]

Supposedly it's that they made some harsh comments about it being a starforged technician. That is probably it,

[rotund zinc]

300 for shipping as customs was included

[golden talon]

But at least LTT has learned damage control this time and privated it and are modifying it quickly

[rare holly]

There never was a secret shopper

[restive lion]

i mean the whole point is "heres how it arrived, not cool dudes"

[lilac bear]

Maddison sued LTT and they went bankrupt

[golden talon]

Could be carrier's fault, PCs are pretty hard to ship

[vapid canyon]

Yes there was, I remember watching it this morning or early afternoon

[hot mulch]

Agreed, yes they should have said stated that included taxes but shipping like this happens, and 4 systems as they said in their twitter post is 4 people with no system for weeks because they gotta ship it back and get a new one

[rare holly]

Nope those where dreams

[north skiff]

https://tenor.com/view/bread-loaf-of-bread-gif-9168053548213322568

[hot mulch]

Bread

[restive lion]

imo thats still on the seller for not packaging it well enough

[hot mulch]

🍞🍞🥖🥖🙈🤣🎶😏💩

[wary salmon]

Honestly it’s pretty easy to miss this though. Like it says shipping 300 which is technically correct if you factor in import tax. But they probably should have investigated further. I didn’t get to that part with star forge unfortunately lol

[rare holly]

DID THEY ACTUALLY PAY?

Caps lol

[vapid canyon]

useless

[restive lion]

its not like it got yeeted out of a plane or something catastrophic, it got dropped

[golden talon]

It doesn't matter how well you package it, for cross country shipping customs (which this is, Texas to Canada) are gonna take your package and rip it apart to make sure you're not hiding shit in there lol

[tiny compass]

I mean…

[rare holly]

Or was that what the invoice said I feel like that's where the problem is

[tiny compass]

It might have been yeeted out of a plane
