Well there's probably gonna be a bunch of flash sales once WAN starts
Noob question, what would be the best way to get a discord notification when the wanshow starts?
YT just does not notify me.
Enable notification on the ltt-releses announcer in discord?
if you want specifically a discord notification, then enabling all notifications for the wanshow-live channel is probably the best way you could do that from this server
that wont send push notifications though (itll only notify if you have discord open), and the message in there is usually a few minutes delayed
outside of that, twitch notifications are more reliable than youtube's, but that'll notify for the pre-show too
there are more options if those wont work for you too, lmk
I can live with a few minutes delay
ifttt to the rescue!
oh wait it's not 2016
Uuh so i'm not seeing the wanshow-live channel in the list anyware.
Am I missing something?
need a hero to post flash deals here I probably will miss the wan show ๐ญ
Thx for the help everyone
theyll almost certainly be posted in #lttstore
things get posted there within a few minutes of them going live
Ah right Wan is starting soon
Woo its late, the universe is as it should be
You can only do so many Early WANShows before it destroys the fabric of the space time continuum.
Welp, 30 minutes late and not even a thumbnail yet, I'm gonna go fetch some ice cream
there is a title though
whats the title
Look At Me I'm The Advertiser Now - WAN Show November 29, 2024
I've done this and still never get notifications
even with discord open?
yeaup.
I hate it.
It would be interesting if there was some sort of way to use whenplane for notification
Sit in twitch chat and waiti fro noise
Where is the lan show? I need to be entertained while working at this gas station
Wan show*
^
Late
I get the badge for WANShow going live, but not a ding.. so I just leave the tab open..
assuming fdiscord is open an unmuted it should give a sound
no actual notif though because they don't do that for large servers
Twitch is usually good about pinging me when they go live
Unsubscribing from LTT and giving gersnexus all my attention from now on
real
whenever i do that the stream starts muted.
Maybe due to being a real firefox user and not those fake floatplane ones lol
you do have the stream unmuted right? 
ah this is helpful. thank you
In the industry we call that a callback
Thanks @brittle moon for making it
yeah firefox doesn't let you autoplay audio
Oh wow. Whenplane is so much more featured than last time I used it
Yeah that "More" dropdown should be retitled "Rabbit Hole"
At the same time I love firefox, because I will open 20 tabs with different youtube videos to watch, and on chrome they will just autoplay. but firefox blocks that
yw ๐
I got in it for liek 10 minutes looks at everything
๐
Wan late as usual?
Yes

THERE IT IS
eyyy
It's what I'm known for
ive come to expect this image being posted here weekly ๐
@brittle moon What error 500 on the extension
are you on desktop? If so, anything red in the dev console? (F12 then go to the console tab at the top)
I am on desktop
skill issue.
There was a likebig ass imaeg of luke and error 500
lt me try
Where reload frame
what browser are you on?
Chrome ๐
oh i just checked, apparently chrome removed that feature
another reason to keep using firefox for me ๐
i guess reload the whole page then
It's called being lazy, also I haven't got a issue rn so when I do i will move to firefox
wheres wan show?
Its waiting for you to go to sleep
probably
In the greater Vancouver area.
Sometimes..
when is wan show

Today
at some point
I mean, what is time anyway..
Time is just, like, a construct, man...
Ah shit did it start?
no
Not yet :(
In some parallel universe, yes.. maybe.. but not this one :p
actually this is the universe where it happens the earliest
I was busy assembling some stuff and lost track of time
feel bad for the other universes
It's over.
Me when(plane)
#wanshow-live Will ping when it starts yeah?
No updates anywhere. Nothing on floatplane, YT, or Twitch. It honestly feels pretty dismissive considering they know how many people are waiting
it might or might not
did something happen aside from the announcement of tarrifs on canadian goods?
No Access!?!? What secrets lie within?
grab wan role in id:customize
BFCM!
9000!
there is a title: Look At Me I'm The Advertiser Now - WAN Show November 29, 2024
also, welcome to wan show ๐
bro then they have done so much dismissing (considering its like this every Friday)
Not that I can see. Just feels like they are either dealing with issues or simply running late. Either way I feel like they are large enough and support a large enough community to be more up front with how long we have to wait.
theyre always late for wan show
this is nothing new
They are rarely more than 15 minutes late. and when they are they are 3 minutes late on FP/Twitch.
they've been 5 hours late before
I'm just tired of waiting for a scheduled show. I don't think it's an unreasonable complaint
uh huh....
the avg is deffiently higher then 15min late
Well hey, long as you're a Floatplane subscriber you can check out the exclusive "Why is WAN Show late" series while you're waiting
consider it a suggested time from now on 
not scheduled
Round down
Sounds about right
Yeah that shit has been pretty upsetting. Basically just directly showing they don't care as much as they probably should.
the average for the past 5 shows is 1h 2m 17s
yea thats what i thought
I cant tell is Unabating is trolling or not
Partially
Almost 2am here and you don't hear me complaining, except that I finished my ice cream smh
i think they are. first they said wan show is never more than 15 minutes late, then they said because theyre always late they dont care
I'll just eat my plate of cereal while i wait
I know they are always late, but it's annoying and they have been slipping in terms of engagement quality for some time now.
I love the crew I'm mostly just venting
but still frustrated
My favorite is serving myself a snack right before wan is supposed to start and just eating the snack while waiting for it to actually start
they do all have other jobs that need to get done before they can go live
cant really help if a shoot goes over
I haven't had any complaints.. I mean most of it would be because Luke is on a tight timeline to getting out most days.. so no more starting 2hrs late and running for 4hrs..
Can at least post some updates using there plethora of social accounts though
Problem these days is Luke has a set time that he has to leave to medicate his birds, so the later they start the shorter the show
yea ๐ฆ
thats the real shame
wasn't that just while his partner is out?
and we all know why we even show up...
title changed
Look At Me I'm The Sponsor Now - WAN Show November 29, 2024
Solution.. bring the Birgs with him to the show \o/
I'm not opposed
what changed? 
it looks the same
Got that Pre-Wan Snack
Birbs wouldn't survive an office environment and would die immediately within range of the workshop
(completely missing the no milk)
Ya but he would be.. I think moving birds around like that is stressful and not good for them too..
I just bought my first box of those at 32 a week ago... Cause my life was a lie.
Look At Me I'm The Advertiser Now - WAN Show November 29, 2024 to Look At Me I'm The Sponsor Now - WAN Show November 29, 2024
Fruity cereal, paper bowl, late wan. This is a recipe for greatness.
So plan B.. move WANShow for Lukes house..
i thought the white of the plate was milk
Holy shit wait
Medicate the birbs live on the show lesgoooooo
Is it a plate?
Cereal Tier List Time?!?!
I was out of milk.
the plate was right there.
No fucking way
i cant belive you
ahhh advertiser to sponsor
oh, linus must be advertising merch on other channels
ooo are they?
they sponsored this video (havent watched it, just saw the description)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JEJt009r3cg
Buy the LTT Precision Bit Set here: https://lmg.gg/precisionmacho
Last year, Set unveiled an impressive case mod that transformed the Nintendo Switch into a dedicated home console, complete with enhanced cooling capabilitiesโperfect for overclocked systems. Now, the mod is back with a next-gen upgrade! Featuring a larger Noctua fan and a host o...
more heavily now
Wdym they sponsored the video?
damn like a 2 min spot
Probably getting BS shade thrown for the recent distro of precision drivers. So anyone saying anything nice about them is perpetually tainted (for the week or so people remember things).
what happened in regards to the percision?
There's ore ltt shade?
Like they bought an ad spot for a product?
i didnt know there was drama
Theres always drama
bro almost and hour late now
I mean i remember linus mentioning that ifixit dropped them
over an hour late. welcome to wan show ๐
hour and 20 minutes
They gave them to creators. No drama. But people don't associate quality with promotional giveaways so I'm guessing the internet is internetting.
they did the same with ratcheting screwdriver
they did the same with the normal driver
and it went fine
I'm out of the loop on a lot, that wan show actually does catch me on news
Its funny that ifixit dropped them considering they still get mentioned a lot.. I mean even if LTT makes a competing product, having them advertise YOUR product is better than not.. but alas.. also the ifixit ceo seemed to be a little more angry than strategic about it..
Drivers were a meme already by that point. People were just desperate to get them. and they just happened to be amazing, and really scale interest.
Meme as in the hilarious nature of delays in build up. Linus will Linus.
To be clear I ADORE there stuff. As well as there philosophy on product dev.
was there anger? I mean from how it sounded on that wan it sounded fine
LMG had no issue, but the ifixit CEO took a few swips at LMG on socials
but again i don't see most of anything outside of wan show
Linus mentioned an email he got from iFixit but didn't go into specifics
Along with deciding not to continue the sponsorship
Jeff Geerling reached out for comment and got a BS "we're reevaulating our sponsors, we want to teach the world to solder" response
He for sure seemed bitter about it..
interesting.
I'm need to teach half of r/consolerepair how to replace an hdmi port correctly because god...
new techs learn soldering the wrong way
Which I would have got if LMG had done this out of nowhere, but he had like a year heads up this was happening..
Austin Evans had to seriously tip-toe around the subject. You could tell he was nervous about the conclusions people would jump to.
Would there be links to any of the statements these other creators have made?
I don't get a lot of his content recommended to me so I haven't seen iFixit-related chat from him
Which reminds me of the lol DBrand vid where they might be looking at Mousepads and had an LTT sample one in their deconstruction bins
Thumbnail up
thumbnail!
lmao.
Which is certainly fine I think. LTT has their own designs and designs are what most people will buy their desk pads for
I don't want to start that video on chance that wan starts while im watching
YT vids
Ooh Luke still in France
remote luke
Linus is in FP CHAT!!
Said the streak will never be broke.
Guess his investments are doing well.
esp not on BFCM
Is it the Black friday deals video? or something else. because the titles certainaly don't make clear
having to watch each video just to find a statement on whatever drama could be currently happening

nice
I dont think theres major drama. Just minor stuff and mostly preventative measures.
as i am kind of new to wan will on this BFCM be flash deals or not?
if I have a YouTube support question about the channel who would I ask
We don't know
if its like before probably
since everything will sell out quickly
Expect the unexpected
LMG has never been one for consistency..
they have some deals rn on the site ๐คทโโ๏ธ
well timing consistency
Its always late, except when its 12hrs early :p
Oh. Luke is out. Which means no birds there to medicate
longer wan?
trueeeee, 12 hr wan show here we come
Well I'm gonna go finishing setting up my SecretLab accessories in the meantime
Luke's had weeks where Emma's been away so he has to medicate the birbs solo, so I guess it's her turn now
Where is Mr. Luke?
France
france
Oh damn! Nice!
He hosted some conference on Thursday
Oh, that's super cool. Hopefully he talks about it a bit. I had no idea he was AFK.
He had to leave the show early last week to catch his plane
How long does WAN usually last?
^
tfw I could have slept til 2am
yeah me till 3am ๐
AH HERE WE GO
Live
ITS ONNN
ITS LIVE BOYS!
Is it Floatplane only?
HARD R
30 seconds in and Linus used the hard R
OUT THE GATE
Cause people are saying no YT Live yet
got that whenplane announcement nice
what the hell did i miss ๐ญ
finaly
The shortcircuit wall paper is so insane tho
oh i was confused until i looked behind him
lol
bro the lag is crazy
that was a good one
I assume they won't annouce anything until the show proper
Linus hard R
Linus to Luke "you sound r****ded"
oh alright
It's cause Luke is very delayed
So the joke is that he'll be talking like he's slow in the head.
I know what r****ded means lmao
Just giving context
What even is a Switch Pro (rhetorical I'll check out the video later)
The 64GB LCD steam deck is sold out
YT will be live in about a minute
And not coming back, so the cheapest model is the the 512GB LCD right now
20 merch messages in 9 minutes
At C $419
ngl i did think he was unsupervised lol
DANG IT DAN, late wan again
I didn't.. no way any company lets someone just walk around unsupervised..
yea... like thinking about it it makes sense that it would be supervised
and why would machines just be running with no supervision
Psalms 68:20 20 Our Dan is a Dan who saves; he is the guard, our Lord, who rescues us from death.
That does make sense.. some companies without 24/7 staffing will let things run overnight to be ready for the am..
Yeah they got distracted again
dan you are our only hope, save us from a late WAN show
not the white on the eggplant ๐ญ
they will talk about hexos today
oh god 2024 controversy
Its okay.. its French.. ๐
we starting a streak with this
even if it was this is the internet theyโd cancel jesus if they could
Neither have I, but if I did I wouldn't have cared either..
it sounds like it might have something to do with beige babies or whatever
ooo 3 sponsors
not just that 1
d brand: supplies linus with his skin (linus is a lizard confirmed)
i love stressful situations with the wan show
last week i was underneath the gearbox of a minibus doing maintenance and i was sat under there watching the wan show for a solid 45% of that time
Lol
I mean I'm busy setting up my PC mount for the Magnus Pro
Iโm working on some security camera stuff on my laptop
How is it? Mine comes next week
Pretty sure Linus is secretly 100% owner of Dbrand and he's just here for the memes.. I lol'd so hard at the Dbrand video
Like the Desk?
Yh
He might have some shares of it
They were some of the first sponsors
It was kinda a pain to set up cause like everything is SO DAMN HEAVY, like even the fucking desk mat was quite hefty but yeah I'm liking it a lot so far
Also the LTT Screwdriver bits don't fit the screws
Do you have the xl ?
yeah
It requires M3/M5 Screw bits so IDK if LTT has those
I mean they do give you the tools but yeah
Also I did have a task rabbit guy help me out the entire time so it went smoother than if I just did it by myself
Using their powerdrill was like super useful
I purchased the assembly service since it was available in my area
So hopefully should go smoothly
I have a cheap standard desk i bought from amazon but its too small and the tabletop flexes when in standing mode
Was so hard to find a one piece standing desk tabletop
This is my first experience with a sit to stand desk and holy shit it actually really does make a difference
Also keep in mind only select parts of the underside of the desk are actually magnetic
So if you plan on putting anything underneath
Will keep that in mind thanks
Cause like most of the magentism is on the top of the desk
Oh man, that's funny.
WAIT LINUS KIDNAPPING?
Held Hostage by Intel. ๐
Nah by Dbrwnd
lol the way his face just went ๐ญ
There's a point to be said about people that can't find communities otherwise.
The about the minority of people that are LGBT+. It's hard to find others like you especially if the environment you're in is hostile to you
Like with current Gen Social Media like so ingrained into their culture yeah this would have a lot of consequences
And yeah people will always find a way to bypass these restrictions
You can tell when people aren't part of the LGBT+ community when they react to laws like this
Like react negatively or positively to this?
I get what Aus is trying to do, but I get Linus's issue too.. I mean even as a kid in the late 90's/2000's, a large part of my social circle was partially, or even exclusively, over MSN, IRC, etc.. so these days lots of peoples social circle are of people who they can't just call, meet up with, etc.. And this is even a bigger thing with marginalized groups where its hard to find similar people who share your issues..
Not taking it into account.
Someone who didn't grow up in such a welcoming irl community who can only find community online

not even just lgbt. but children of mormon parents, children exposed to abuse breaking away from their parents and finding it doesnt have to be that way
Like for me I really only got Social Media in the first place cause my older sister discovered that some of my classmates were shit talking me behind my back cause they knew I didn't have social media to be aware of it
Okay back to set up work
Yeah I think turning down the algorithm would be a good solution
Especially in todays world where alot of news and social commentary comes from social media
Hell back in highschool teachers would make us look at twitter for political stuff
Jeez I couldn't imagine having to look at Twitter in school. That's crazy, lol.
The unit on social political manipulation literally used examples from twitter and instagram
Omg hahaha
Oh here we go
Deals are LIVE!
SALES MPW
Alright, who did it? Did y'all take down the stream by trying to access lttstore.com's deals?
Dan pulled the power plug with his foot. Didn't want to sort through all the incoming merch messages. ๐คฃ
I would be 100% cool with no algorithms
i got on the waitlist for the supersofthoodie
What deals
Whoโs my impostor in Floatplane chat 
"I might've just implied I wear women's underwear" - Dan, 2024
I was just referring to the Black Friday deals that are up. Linus just started talking about Merch messages and my stream of the show died.
Plot twist: He already does! ๐
Ah I read this one! NGL I don't care that much about the topic, but the article was very well done
Yep, Linus specifically called it out so I posted it for anyone who didn't catch it ๐
OH THHIS IS SPICY
Its French Short Circuit..
Lil' baby stink bug.
Laptop Sponsors super chill
what happened
luke made a joke about jan 6th
The spice level of tobasco lol
Linus just replace your circuit breakers with pennies and such.. then you can get more than 3 comps per circuit..
to be fair, their reviews have not changed since the investment.
And every review starts off with Linus saying hes invested in framework too.. even when reviewing anyone elses stuff.. so its not like his not upfront with it.
oh neat a full video
I've been saying, if there's any tech you want, buy it now
like right now
"Will manufactures move.." No. They will just pass on the tariffs to the consumers.
even if you ended up using credit, there's a chance you'd pay less in interest than you would have you waited and seen the higher prices
Well who knows if he'll actually do it anyway.. and if it'll stick.. doing it via emergency powers is not well tested so no guarantee it'll stick.. Plus Trump has the attention span of a goldfish so he says a lot then doesn't..
I can near guarantee it'll happen against china. Whether it happens against canada and mexico is up in the air
Canada shares a land border with the EU thanks to the end of the Whiskey War.. so I say we just join the EU.
I wish i could honestly buy a piece of software for X dollars even if it was several hundred.
ok cool
instead of bending over and handing my debit monthly.
You can; depends on the software license. It's why I switched from Adobe to Serif (Affinity) software.
True
or your work can pay for adobe ๐
[which is my case]
I'm with Riley.. screw that.. if I get the product its cause I don't want TO do that.
I know enough Linux to get around, and troubleshoot what I can't. I have zero interest in doing it. Its not something I like to tinker with..
These comments really highlight mega nerds that don't have lives outside of tech and think that's normal for every nerd
Its why I run Windows as my desktop OS (and fileserver OS) not Linux.
Someone needs to buy the album, rent one of those sign trucks with the speakers, park it out front of LMG and play it with a message that it will continue till remastered happens.
China tariff is gonna happen imo, purely because china export lots and does not import as much and it is still very much a threat to US
things are definitely gonna get more expensive but i hope this can mean less people buying stuff mindlessly
Do you think they're going to decorate the set for the festive season ?? I can't remember if they did last year.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GH0_8itTPgY Sponsored by the site hes reviewing was an interesting decision.. (though I trust j2c, and his point of testing the marketplace side is different than trusting stuff directly from Jawa) .. also funny how he learned it if from Scrapyard Wars :p
Many people have not heard about Jawa, a marketplace specifically for PCs, PC Components and peripheral devices... but is it a safe place to buy from? https://jawa.link/J2CNov24

He's commented on the video to explain the thinking behind it
Yep.. which is why I mentioned the marketplace | direct sale distinction.. still.. hard to deny that its not a great idea :p
yeaa but the USA isnt considering that if they impose import tariffs to promote manufacturing in the USA, they gotta actually manufacture it here, and most americans dont want those jobs
Pat Gelsinger is retiring from Intel, will be a fun show this week
hopefully they aint going back to appointing the cfo ceo. thats exactly whats got them to this situation
The CFO and EVP are now CEOs by interim but yeah, going back to a bean counter CEO would not be a good look, hopefully not axing their efforts in the GPU space
If they are looking for safer options, maybe go to the c-suite from Boeing.. they have been issue free for like.. a week now.
Story idea you may be interested in for next wan show or a techquickie segment maybe
Since android 15 release Multiple sections of the fitbit app have been unusable. Currently 4 weeks without any official word that they are even looking into it. Mods on their own forum has been merging any posts into a thread which is marked as resolved but it far from isn't. The original poster has marked it unresolved but they keep marking it as resolved again.
This is a link to the community thread.
The Store page is being flooded with 1 star reviews that they are auto responding to with canned responses that do nothing (telling you to log out and back in)
Ill add a couple of screenshots at the bottom to show you the problem. The top of most pages appear cut off. think it is due to the Screen usage changes in android 15.
Sorry if I have waffled to much. The fitbit community are hoping some external pressure may at least get them to acknowledge the problem.

I'm just glad GamersNexus isn't targetting LTT anymore
still upset about that?
It had a positive outcome. No more rushing videos out where it's 1 video a day being released. It's what the employees wanted the most when they were asked what they wanted to change at work.
targeting is not the right term
investigating then
I loved the crossover episode!

New crypto scam, this time hawk tuah girl did a rug pull.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JKGT6T4R3Pg
After a disastrous and loss heavy token launch, the "tokenomics" of the "Hawk Tuah" coin have come to light, showcasing one of the worst rug pulls in the meme driven crypto world so far.
With insiders raking in millions, average community members losing their savings, and one of the most embarrassing responses I think I've ever seen from a Cry...
[shocked face] that [random crypto coin] by [random celeb] was a scam
how do people STILL fall for this?
someone who gets 5 minutes of fame makes a crypto - scam? nah.
I think "makes" is a little strong here.. more likely just lent her name to something willing to pay and has no idea whats going on :p I have more sympathy for someone like her than someone with actual tech knowledge, or a legit celeb with a team to vett stuff :p
She knew what she was doing, watch the video and you'll understand because there is a wild Coffeezilla appearance, he'll propably do his own video about this subject
It's only 12min48sec

tysm
The wAN Show will start... when they decide to start it lol
maybe 4 hours early?
Maybe 2 hours late?
But probably not actually on time
recently theyre been averaging 1h 8m late
nerd
no u
true
If she's cancelled, nothing of value was lost
Can you cancel someone that never really mattered? I mean she did a neat thing on camera once.. and beyond the memes, has anyone else cared about what shes up too?
he allready has, just not on the main coffeezilla channel so far
She had a thriving podcast (as in she gets enough views to get decent money).
She's going to lose her livelihood as a podcaster which she deserves to lose
If you bought a cryptocoin based on the Hawk Tuah girl, that's literally on you.
There could not have been a stupider coin
With more red flags than that one
Might as well have been called ScamCoinโข and made by a Nigerian prince at that point.
i heard yesterday that bitcoin hit $100,000
I think the issue is that her marketing targeted people who were new to crypto
Also
ALL Crypto marketing targets people new to Crypto.. cause everyone else knows better :p
The WAN show is currently late by
6m 49s
It usually actually starts between 1 and 3 hours late
NFT's and other Crypto is a great way to ensure that people who have money to blow, blow it.
I just wish the profits from it went to good causes
Like fighting cancer, or tracking execs of insurance co's
well actual crypto went through the roof with the announced appointment of a crypto bro to the new administration
Yep, but like every time it goes through the roof, it eventually crashes..
inevitably it will
We be live on floatplane!!
Preshow is live on twitch
floatplane chat is going a bit nutty on the title
if they talk about nzxt flex program on wanshow, they will only mention Jayztwocents interview with the ceo I bet.
Damn I was hoping for him to have a spicier populist take on the situation
You reap what you sow
We gotta activly call them out about avoiding mentioning GN when it happens. It's immature and pathetic.
It IS a race to the bottom...but thats what people do. Its what they do and unfortunately there are too many that do that and want to do that.

"by youtube channel named gamersnexus that I've never heard of" ๐คฃ that's good
If anyone other than Riley said that it would feel like sour grapes, but with him it just feels normal.
Pat didnt make line go up enough...only line go up is what is needed...chips who cares? datacenter who cares...line go up constantly is the only thing they care about
I want a B770...but that not happening now...maybe later...but I'm not holding my breath..
I hope they end up being good, and I hope Valve ends up supporting it in SteamOS.. cause in the future I'd love an Intel GPU budget PC for my TV for games and such..
I'll buy the B580..I'd care for a B770 more though
but not as stupid as the fire-cooled pc
At least the coat functions as a coat that can be worn...
yep
Its very Cyberpunk.. would be a nice movie prop..
The FOMO pricing on an incomplete product is my problem with the HexOS promo
A literal 3x price increase for anyone that doesn't want to trust early access software is brutal
Especially seeing how often Early Access software, like games, have problems
i wonder how flexible those RGB strips are, like, within the fabric
Personally I don't have any issue ... It was a pre-release sale, low price cause you're taking a chance.. either its worth a gamble, worth it at the final feature complete price, or not and you do something else.. they were clear it wasn't complete so after that I view it as personal responsibility..
If I wanna get raged at FOMO I'll hit up the LTT store first.
Luke gets it.. at least how I get it.
CAN I do trunas myself? Sure.. do I want too? Nope.
I hope they somewhat talk about NZXT
I'd much rather watch at home anyway.. no worries about other people.. no snacks that cost an arm and a leg.. can pause it if I need to take a dump..
I have dolby theater near by so I'd only go there for movies
But yeah I'd prefer to watch it at home now
Last movies I saw in theater was Avatar (basic, RealD, Imax3D), and The Martian.. It would take a lot to get me back, and probably would involve something next level like Avatar was when it came out.. and worth it for the experience..
I went to the movies recently and some annoying person kept using their phone across the row...
Forza Horizon 4 is getting delisted due to licensing issues...get your copy now...

linus grifter tips
Renting a PC can make sense short term, if you need something high spec or otherwise different, but short term.. like taking a couple month trip and want a powerful laptop.. but long term its just bad..
They haven't mentioned GN have they
Yep they did
not the new video
Thats how they started this topic
They mentioned it in the TechLinked video too
i keep on getting distracted talking between here, fp chat, and the framework discord lol
there's a new GN video that hasnt been mentioned but that GN started this...that was mentioned
Oh ya he didn't differentiate.. just started the topic by saying GN reported it.. then went off on his comments on rent to down and such..
me with a gaming PC that has a bluray drive and a DVD drive and a framework laptop 16 cuz im like that: 
GN pointed out that literal loan shark interest rates are not as bad as this plan
That's absolutely insane
you could rent a pc from "guido" with loan shark rates cheaper
bro, i HAVE an i5-12400f and a 3060 lmao
HAWK TUAH
the coffeezilla twitter live was insane
her response (if it wasnt a prerecorded clip that they segued to) is also trash lollll
Might as well have been called ScamCoinโข and made by a Nigerian prince at that point.
man imagine falling for a nigerian prince thing 3 times, speak of the devil 
man, i got scammed, i bought a backpack on lttstore.com, but all i got was a peanut /s
I meet people at Tims for the same reason as Luke mentioned.. Cops almost always there, and if not, a call for cops to get the Tims will get a whole police force there faster than anything other than their own homes..
man there should be a group or some sort of service that lets you know if a cop or whoever is at a place like a timmies, so you can meet up with people there and have confidence in your transaction lol
speaking of which i should see if someone replied to me about the ipod photo im tryna sell
thatll just get people to hunt cops depending on the country they live in.
I have never been to a major Tim's that didn't have a cop at it. Smaller ones in town can be without, but theres generally a main one and theres always one..
I just don't care for a game that will require extremely power innefecient hardware
or at the very least criminals will know to avoid these places cause they report their location
Oh ya.. rob a Tim's at your own risk lol
See, Apple was right to make texts from Android look different.. Security.. such foresight.. much security.. wow!
at some point i should ask myself if i should only use my hotspot from my iphone 12 to my pixel 9 pro fold, and have literally everyone that needs to text me to message me on signal lol
But to be fair, I actually do thing whatever the reason, there IS a good case to be made, imho, where connections of varying security/encryption should be shown to users. (and yes I know Apple didn't do it for that reason)..
im mainly using my iphone 12 for calls texts and hotspot and my pixel 9 pro fold for everything else
Down with iOS and Android.. bring back WebOS!
It was HP's mobile OS.. best known for the HP TouchPad that they firesold and killed off a decade ago
It was a lot like iOS in that it had a very polished UI, but like iOS, no one used it lol
I picked up 3 of the tablets during the firesale through, last one we stopped using like a year ago.. that one was just acting as a clock and IMDb lookup tool as it lived lext to the couch lol
The Palm OS, before LG, HP, ๐ธ chasing endless profits ruined them. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebOS
I seeeeee
I still need to find a purpose for mine, and wish I had splurged on the 32GB model instead of the 16GB.
Dan being immersed and swayed by colors makes my day
All of mine ended with swollen batteries.. But at $50-60 each for all the years I got out of them, I have nothing bad to say.. for a discontinued product with zero support they ran so well.
I switched one to Android.. hated Android as much on it as on every other device I've used it on lol
Sometimes donning the tricorn is the best way to be private and dodge data harvesting.

Lame
I'll go back to Bend at some point and visit blockbuster when they're actually open
Fellow oregonian?
indeed
I was passing though bend on my way home from thanksgiving and drove past the blockbuster
just didn't make sense to stick around till they opened lol
but its not that far, I can always go back
it happened, Linus did it. He finally said gamersnexus. It's been 84 years... ๐

didn't know they made fang boots still i saw the latest wan show
buut like is there a thing averse for those

Anyone knowledgeable in graphics, is this legit?
If so, I wonder if it would change Linus' opinion on how awesome DLSS and the like are or if there would be a convincing rebuttal.

I will say one thing being an australian about the new law that was passe, WE DO NOT WANT THIS it is just our government trying to make everyone think that they give a shit about keeping us safe, if they did actually care they would create a decent social media safety course to run in schools.
Lucky they havent kicked me off discord yet hopefully they never do ๐
social media safety course
this will be about as effective as the safety courses on smoking/vaping
Donโt worry we donโt think you guys actually do. This year seems to be the year that govts worldwide are doing insane things. Here in nz ours are not any better.
โHey we need to pass something extraordinary to be remembered โ
Who cares what our nationโs actually needing us to do, we need to focus on a law that goes too far. We are dealing with the govt here focusing on our founding treaty not things like cost of food. If the place down the road is finding out 250 food parcels daily might be a sign there is a problem.
The idea of having to give my id to social media at the age of 38/9 is not good.
Nah if they are done properly they work, my school does one and the person who runs it is hella good at scaring all the people who haven't been following the safety rules.

This is hysterical and I can't wait to see this covered on WAN
that so damn unhinged for a company to do
and so unhinged for someone trolling to do as well
To be fair, and I HOPE this is true, I have a feeling the phone number they called was the one linked to the domain name.. that said, they should have used the sites actual contact page, and second, if they did call once they knew it wasn't the site owner they shoulda shut up, and lastly, when they called, it should have been to say WE fucked up, not youre damaging our rep by telling the world what we did..
Honestly initially I didn't blame Funko much, sure it was on their behalf, but they hired a company to do a job, that company fucked up, itch.io's domain company also fucked up.. if Funko peeps woke up today and said Oh Fuck, we'll make this right and see it doesn't happen again.. I'd have been water under the bridge..
But they chose wrong.
So now all the blame I put on the two middle-men companies, gets copied, magnafired, and dumped on them.
That. Is. Low.
You don't go and tell on someone to their mom
That's fucked up
actual child level response, part of me thinks legal cases should be thrown out if the accuser acts like a little baby
Part of me wonders if it was someone unrelated to funko who was trolling
Unplugged UP Phone Possible Fed Honeypot
โโโโโโโโ
I REALLY wish LTT would do a FULL audit & inspection of the Unplugged UP Phone and their LibertOS.
This dude makes a lot of good points to it being another honeypot like the Freedom Phone, etc.
Okay yeah, so de-Google and de-Apple and de-Windows your life but go ahead and give your data to these dudes? He doesnโt offer any information regarding their data collection and Shawn Ryan doesnโt know CRAP about tech to know to ask about personal data collection, storage, and transmissionโby either the OS/device itself or by Unplugged.

also does anyone know of any 3d printable things that could adapt a 64oz ltt water bottle to the ltt backpack? figured it might be cool lol
might end up designing one myself somehow, i have the idea of clipping it onto the side of the ltt backpack, and have it where you put the water bottle on a bottom plate that holds it, then grabs onto the lid or something (to account for people that might stickerbomb their bottles, to keep them as scratch free as possible, and also show them off)
who wore it better?
It was funny hearing Linus talking about wanting to see Donny Osmond perform in Joseph in London later this month, because the show (and Donny) is in Edinburgh until then
I never heard about this musical before, but since last wan show I am kind obsessed with it
Also Donny is amazing. He als san the "I'll make a man out of you" from Mulan!
But what makes no sense is that they are singin about corn, when it wasn no introduced to the old world until Columbos and onwards

When is WAN? Who knows! At least you can look at when it started before.. (spoiler: it's late)
I remember some video or article comparing these data removal services and the conclusion, iirc, was basically "it's all pretty meh, the best way to ensure your data actually gets/stays deleted is to call them yourself", but I can't find it again for the life of me
I just might pay for like a month.
I was called 4 times today while at work.

3 times in an hour.
iirc those companies do a year minimum (i havent checked in a while though and I could be misremembering)

"Don't buy things on future promises!"
"Buy HexOS because of a FOMO one day sale."
Uh.
With 30 days from the time you got access to get a refund..
Also, black friday..
30 days is not nearly enough with average dsoftware development speeds.
Then don't buy it.. If it does today what you want today then get it, if not then wait.. Linus is just not going to mention a deal just because he thinks you may violate his mantra of not buying on future promises..
but its targeted to compete with the 4060 and 3070. as long as it does better than cards like that, but cheaper, it will succeed
I was speaking to hexos.. I think the new Intel card is fantastic hands down.
I hope Intel sticks it out
i dont even understand why the 570 is a thing, though
it makes me wonder if the 570 is a power thing and intel's goal is for mobile
Or a limited run worse card to make the 580 look even better.. or maybe by then they think they will have improved 1080p performance to make it a solid 1080p card..
really beyond price i want someone to tell me why i would want a 570
well thats what i am saying. $249 is so reasonable i can't even see a reason for the 570, its not like they're going to market it at say, $175
At $200 I can see it.. $50 is a lot to some people..
actually, it might be marketed at OEMs and builders who are building machines for like, people who check their email and browse the web
maybe they aren't considering the 570 to be a gaming card
I wonder how it does for designers. Iโm on 2070 because of Adobe and my bank account ๐คฆโโ๏ธโฆ nz pricing be sure crazy
i just saw a youtube video on getting out of the adobe ecosystem
Escaping Adobe is like Escaping Microsoft Office.. there are other options, but depending on what you actually do with it, its often times hard to not end up having to compromise.
I want there to be alternatives to Adobe yes but there are reasons why i stay, am i impressed with their pricing and their practices? Nah

i used my LTT screwdrivers last week
Also is it normal to use the screwdriver as a fidget toy
i bought a new monitor and used both screwdrivers in installing the vesa mount bracket
Today I came across my first security HEX screws today. Maybe I should grab the LTT bit set to pair with my preci driver
I'm used to security torx. Security Hex screws threw me off
so now i have two identical monitors. man i waited too long to do this. monitors of different resolutions just sucks
My peek setup was the time I had 2 idential monitors, followed by when I had those 2, with a larger center one..
I have an ultrawide and a 16:9 vertical, I would glardly cut that vertical ine into 2 identical for either side.. would make me so happy.. but it works for now so not willing to blow money on new screens..
what happened to calling them not merch messages
i considered getting an UW but I like having the option of plugging an extra monitor into my laptop, and very few UWs have the option of splitting the screen
what was the other phrase they reached for calling merch messages
i dont remember what they came up with
I love my Ultrawide, ites the bees knees Alienware 34", but that said next time I'm probably gonna go normal widescreen.. mostly because I'm developing burnin from watching movies/shows that are 16:9 lol
RE-stocking.. HA
i'm not sold on the curved screen
I love it, but it wasn't/isn't a must for me.

i have five linux machines and one windows 11
I can use Linux, but I don't want too.. so my Linux box is my SteamDeck.
i have two laptops with linux, two raspberry pis, and a steamdeck
Same way I'm the target for HexOS.. Can I setup truenas and such? Ya.. do I want too? No.

Why can't they cater the wan show length to me specifically and only to me? ๐
I also have a PS4.
It exists entirely as a Netflix player.
Even installed a sandisk extreme II SSD to make the experience snappier. 
I have a PS4 pro.
it sits in my wardrobe.

I fix them to resell, but I have a pro for myself.

Also serves as my bluray player
I have never had a console in my life, I've always been a PC man
I agreed with Linus in large part with the criticism of HexOS, but I still don't see the price being reasonable.
He talked about how the price is based on how much it costs to make it, but you don't have per license manufacturing costs in the same way as with a physical products. If the pricing was more reasonable you would more likely see more people actually buying it now and in the future. Having more customers could in the end bring in more money than charging fewer people for more.
If this would be enterprise software, I would totally get the pricing as one would be profiting from it, but isn't this consumer focused? I've spend way less than 300$ on my NAS that has 5TB usable storage. A license to the OS costs more than the entire NAS ffs
If price is too high, people won't buy it, and the project dies
He also makes an argument that all software is based on something else (Linux), like steamOS.
The point he missed is that those are all FREE to use
Wait didn't someone else first comment "HexOS isn't an OS it's just an overlay for TrueNAS" and then Linus responded to that well then SteamOS is just an overlay to Arch
HexOS is definitely an OS
I don't see why someone is even arguing that it's not
Well, he also mentioned macOS which you definitely pay for
Nowadays the macOS license is baked into the price of the machine but in the old days you actually had to buy every new update
You can download a macOS img right now for free
Yeah but if you don't install it on a Mac, it's piracy
You bought the license with the Mac
I have vivid memories of sitting in an Apple Store using store wifi to download the first free OS X update (Lion) way back in 2011, itโs been a while
right,.. and Linus never supports piracy (see latest Windows video)
I'm kinda doubting that statement
At the very least, the $99 beta test cost is a bad business move, even if they need money.
Snow Leopard made news for having โno new featuresโ and costing only $29 at launch
I paid $30 for the OS X Public Beta

my counterargument is pre-95 windows
I'm not saying it should be free, I'm saying that the 300$ price tag is unreasonable
Hi. I was just watching the today's (Dec 13, 2024) Show and had to capture this picture at 34:08. Please don't go too far with it!
Imo for the average consumer $300 is cheap considering someone else did all the heavy lifting for them. Go look at Synology that is going to run you about the same. But this software allows you to have a more powerful system and versatility, while recycling your old machine.
On top of that if you look at the world of tech, it's vast. Not everyone has the time, motivation, or desire to learn another full time job.
300$ is cheap? I'm not sure if I'm just too broke to see that but that's definitely not cheap
I never said "just do it yourself", I just said that I think the price is too high for a large amount of people
I'd see the majority seeing the 300$ price tag on top of the hardware cost and just saying fuck it and going with a mainstream cloud provider
If you're building the NAS from used parts you could definitely get a second NAS for that 300$
I mean ofc you won't do anything with an other NAS if you can't use the software
But I don't see the value of the software being 300$
I'd definitely see many tech-intrested people and maybe myself using this software if the license cost was lower
And also would probably buy multiple licenses over the years
But let's say I'd need to build two NASes, that would already be 600$ just in software
That's what a budget gaming PC costs brand new
100$ pre-tax would be a price I'd see a lot of people being able to spend
But the average person who is looking into a nas already knows it'll be pricey unless they have the time to learn the ins and outs. Which is why Synology is so successful. And that shit is expensive
A couple terabytes of HDDs and an old optiplex won't be expensive
Let's say a 4TB HDD is like 90$ and you get two of those for a RAID1/mirror configuration, you'd still have 120โฌ to find an optiplex to fit into that 300$ figure. Than double that price to get the software
Your 300$ NAS now costs 600$ cause of the ridiculous software pricing
At that point why even bother building a NAS? Just go buy one of those premade Synology or Western Digital NASes
(context, $99 license buyer)
cheap, no, but expensive? definitely not for something you entrust your data to.
Personally, I work a long work week, dont have time to do all my own hobbies and tasks, nevermind spending the time to learn how ZFS works and which RAID profile is the most optimal for my drive layout. I just want it to work, and I want a comparatively high performance system, instead of some cheapo intel pentium in a trench coat system that is going to leave me with a bad taste in my mouth or a hole in my wallet the size of a small moon just to have a few terabytes of storage.
At the end of the day, if the price is too high, chances are it isnt meant for you anyway, and if the price seams cheap, chances are you're already better off using TrueNAS directly, so, they've hit a reasonable middleground on pricing for folk like me who haven't got the time to go and learn how to manage a TrueNAS system, but still want a NAS using our own hardware. I think the pricing is fair for the (planned) value that the software could provide
Oh the software definitely isn't for me, I never said that it is. I was just excited about the project as I know a lot of people who would have benefited from software like this, but seeing the price tag I don't think it's a reasonable price for what it is. If the pricing would be lower I would definitely want to recommend it to others
300 for a lifetime license is comparatively cheap for software
This isn't 150 for a windows license that will last 5 years with updates. This is an OS license that should last with updates as long as the company does
Its a one time purchase.
One time purchase for indefinite licensed software is expensive
any time I see life time license, at some point, the company will redefine what life time means where it no longer means for the rest of your life
because life time licenses are never sustainable business wise
enterprise software, at least some enterprise software, has always been subscription based. You usually get a 1 year license up front, and if you want updates and fixes, you need to pay another 1 year license.
And the best part is if the company goes under guess what trueNAS is still around and that's what the underlying system is at the end of the day.
Tbh I'm guessing this buddy backup and actual features will be an extra charge. Which to me is no different than dlc. And honestly idm dlc as long as it's content and not horse armor. FYI I'm assuming that there will be a lot more usable apps for that $300 price tag. Because the NAA feature is already built in. Tbh right now I find hexOS to be underwhelming, but this is by design. Lol it was so easy to set up.
I think Linus said itโs part of the base package, of course the buddy will need their own license, but thereโs no extra charge on top of that..
Lol I know that's what he says but I am skeptical on that since they do need to continue making money so that they can be self sustainable I don't want them to go away lol
I think Linus wouldnโt have said anything about it if he wasnโt sure.. so fairly sure he has commitments about the Buddy System.. Iโm sure there are other features they can add that would require you to pay them, or require a subscription..
then we're both in agreement
i think it's a great project and i would like to see it succeed but at $300 i don't see it capturing much of the potential market
a genuine windows 11 home license is less than half that and that's a much bigger project with multiple orders of magnitude more developers and overheads
of course hexos is being sold at much lower volume so they have to charge more but i feel like closer to $200 would make it more popular
again, like nearly everyone here i couldn't tell you how much it costs them to make or how many people are using it
It does help that it'll have a Subscription, so thats a solid try before you buy option.. and while $300 might be the lifetime license base price, no idea how often it'll be on sale and by how much.. I don't know anyone that got lifetime plex at full price for example..
It's been a few months since I started watching Wan show but forgot to ask this question. They randomly ring the bell sometimes, whats that about
Dad Joke
Ah
I know its been mentioned there, but I think its on a few of the behind the scenes tours too.. maybe Sara Dietchy, or Gerald Undone's..
Gotcha. I started watching Wan show maybe 3 months ago. Been wondering that every week until now ๐ญ๐
Thanks
I think Dan has called him out in a few main channel videos wishing he had the bell to ring too ๐
It bothered me too much to not look.. https://youtu.be/Ru4g4Rm0Mfo?si=JUtg20ghqm8aO5rq&t=728

Timestamped to "close enough"
HexOS license fee amortized over 5-10 years, is pretty cheap when you think about the monthly cost.
$2.50/month after 10 years.
also its a great tour video to begin with.. the camera dying and video being corrupted mid-Linus rant about SD Cards was gold.. and I like Geralds tours..
Agreed, $300 really isn't that much big picture.. especially if it IS what it claims to be, minimal knowledge needed to get setup and running.. Yes, there are free options, but unless you already know what you're doing imagine cost per hour of learning or getting someone else to do it..
and if you do know what you're doing, well then, you can do it yourself and save the money, or spend anyway just to turn your brain off lol
Then you don't know the Nas market very well
People happily spend many hundreds on a basic ass Synology before they even get to buying the drives
A system which is both very performance limited and drive limited
Compare this to the system they used in the video, less than $100 + $299 for the lifetime license at full price + drives.... For which the only limit is the amount of SATA ports on the board and then the amount of pcie slots/lanes for HBAs or whatever to attach more drives
If this would be enterprise software, I would totally get the pricing
If this was enterprise software the lifetime license would be thousands if even an option
How much is TrueNas?
"if you have to ask you can't afford it"
"request a quote"
It was rhetorical smartass.
Itโs opensource (not enterprise)
It's literally enterprise, and open source. They can coexist lmao
They have enterprise offerings locked behind licenses, and they have open source offerings which are not. The two are not mutually exclusive
That meant I was referring to the non-enterprise
The enterprise features are expensive, and the open source stuff is free, HexOS is taking the open source stuff, and making it easier, or even in some cases adding entirely new things
"(not enterprise)", gotcha, not referring to the enterprise part that isn't open source. Understood.
You asked how much TrueNAS costs, you didn't specify Scale, Core, or Enterprise, additionally open source doesn't always mean free
What I was asking, because I use unRaid and have never touched TrueNas, is if HexOS goes under, do you fall back to the โfree versionโ of TrueNas, or a higher tier?
You fall back to whatever you want, because ultimately you are using a truenas system under the hood either way, and can pay for the enterprise licence of the OS if you'd like. That's the beauty of it, if they go under you dont have to replace your whole OS and rebuild your arrays. You have it all, and it all just falls back
So, if Iโm understanding this right, $300 for a โsimplified OSโ, thatโs built on a free version of TrueNas, that if it goes under, the less informed customer has to learn permissions etc. anyway to continue using their stuff?
Well, it's obviously going to be built on the free version, they're not gonna sell you a license to software you're not going to use, are they
I wonder if a gofundme would have been a better way to go to get development money?
I tried selling this to my tech illiterate Dad (74) and he couldnโt wrap his head around the price either.
To each their own.
GoFundMe isnโt going to keep them employed for new features and keeping it up to date. They arenโt making a one-and-done object, itโs something that will have prolonged costs. A subscription service with a lifetime option is the best option.. now if your not willing to pay the price then ya you can get TrueNAS and diy it.. others spend even more for a Synology option which has higher upfront costs and is imho a worse product.
Take out the "imho" and it's still right
Yeah they're asking for money way too soon
No track record, no release, just "pay now get early access" and "buy now before it goes up!"
Unexpected start to this weeks show
The phrases โno releaseโ and โpay now get early accessโ right next to each other makes me think youโre a troll
It either is compelling to you, so you buy it, or it doesnโt make sense to you so you donโt. I wish yโall would stop bring up the same 4 things that theyโve already answered
Anyone else notice that the wan show with the upside down thumbnail may be in violation of W3C standards? I know it applies to websites but not sure if it would apply in this case. I have some sensory issues and it kinda hurt my brain
I'm probably overthinking things
If we removed everything from youtube that affects people with sensory issues it would be an empty site.. which might be for the best..
That and w3c is recommendations, not actual enforced rules.. grand scheme very little follows it 100%, or even close to that..
Not that they should ignore it either, but one thumbnail for one video on a site that is full of issues.. gonna give em a pass there..
Now something like say the Labs site, thats something I'd want them to take the effort to be right
If it's actually a problem, just use DeArrow
Which standard from W3C? if talking WCAG then there is a whole lot more on YT to worry about. Even though they are all really 'guidelines' I'm curious to know what the infringing part would be about that thumbnail. its not something I'm super up to date on so curious to know more.

Weird. My login screen says something else.
Someone must not like MKBHD. there's more bodycam videos surfacing of him speeding
Its the internet, if theres a chance to take someone down or drum up drama people will take it..
Beyond thinking he shoudn't be speeding down roads unless hes had them blocked off, I honestly don't care.. theres only so much room for stuff for me to care about and someone speeding really doesn't get consideration till they hit someone, or damage my car.
...or if it happens at 3am under my window and I wake up for the sudden noise
(used to live close to a luxury sports car rental place)
Since Terry Fox comes up a lot on WANShow, and thats a good thing.. https://bc.ctvnews.ca/canadian-hero-terry-fox-being-featured-on-next-5-bill-1.7147640

I wonder if MKBHD gets taken down, weโll get some weird influencer filling the gap
he is not getting taken down
why would he
The internet, and particularly influencer culture, loves a target. Itโs dumb.
what are they targeting him for now?
oh wait I found it
I can safely go back to not giving a monkey's
Preeeety much
*continues speeding anyway because the road is empty and im not going a speed from which I couldn't stop if something came up
Loved all the top comments on his recent videos, โgive him a brakeโ
at a certain point it just gets exhausting
I just now remembered to finish off the bingo sheet from Friday and I actually got a bingo for the first time in a while; also ended up with the most squares marked off in a while too, while still only having one completed line
i got pinapple
I do think this is very stupid and childish
but also im fine with pinapple on pizza
imo pinapple on pizza is on the low end of pizza crimes
Genocide might be worse, but a murder is still a murder.
I hereby sentence you to 3 months of British cuisine only, with a minimum of 2 daily portions of 100 grams of jellied eels.
pineapple on pizza is literally fine
people are just haters because they never tried it and the internet told them to hate it
Pineapple Pizza is the biggest Troll Canada has unleased onto the word.. almost as bad as Bieber and Nickleback.
Purely anecdotal, but all the people I've seen truly hate on pineapple on pizza are fat fricks who don't like vegetables period
They'll look at a ham and pineapple and then go ewww and their only ever order is the meatlovers supremem
pineapple is a fruit
I love pineapple.. just keep it off my pizza plz..
I like Pineapple on its own but on pizza its either mouthburning hot or when the pineapple is at a reasonable temp, the pizza is cold
And i aint a fan of either
I love pineapple but I also hate pinapple because it gives me mouth ulcers ๐๐ข
it's always worth it tho
Pineapple goes with ham.
Pineapple can even go on a burger.
Still donโt like it on a pizza.
congrats on your Bingo!
My hope is that one day I'll get cookies whenever I get a bingo.
I'm OK with it being browser cookies.

Solid Side Panel is superior. โโTempered glass side panel is pure garbage.
to me, pineapple tastes like industrial dish soap with sugar on it. i have hated pineapple since before the internet ๐
i'll go ya one further: RGB is the leopard print of computers.
