Too early for the timestamp guy
@19:40 – Windows never had a 9 because of Windows 95 and Windows 98. There is a bunch of software out there that compares windows versions by the first part of the name of the product. So "Windows 9" was used to check for the version of 95 and 98. Having a Windows 9 that wasn't 95 and 98 would break a lot of old software. The crazy thing is the amount of legacy software written in the early to late 90s and early 00s that check for this that is mission critical. We would have a kind of Y2K problem if they had a Windows 9.
Timestamp guy please help us
Luke's SO merch message is so hilarious. Seriously, what is up with the streak? Didn't it end with the … restructuring and instating SOP's on content a while back?
Also, do a PIA sponsorship. I need a VPN deal 😀
P.S. If Luke and Dan make a podcast, it'll be the first one to gauge my short attention span.
Are they refunding shipping charges with the backpack? If not then it's BS.
Love how Linus screws himself live on camera yet again. A video that was to show off how durable the backpack was, turns into a "oops I did it again" moment.
Honestly after all the design changes, back and forth and time it took to get the backpack out, this is pretty embarrassing. If you have a list of features for a product, you validate that list before you sign off on final design.
AND then he immediately dumps on another company for not testing their product. LMAO
another confusing thing about apples naming is that iPads are named in generations of their model tier for example iPad pro 5th gen or iPad air 2nd gen that makes sense until the iPad pro 3rd gen 11 inch is double the price used than the iPad pro 3rd gen 12.9 inch apparently because the 11 inch came out like 4 years after the 12.9 inch 😭 at least macs are usually identifiable by the year because otherwise MacBook pro could be like 10 different things
I hope the "I get to watch" got through before either Linus or Emma hung up.
I want a new option for custom NAS. Unraid using USB drive is so stupid (with issues when you need to transfer tge license) and Truenas Scale being such a buggy mess that if you want to run docker apps reliably, you need a VM for it to which you can't pass the iGPU, because for some reason Truanas needs a GPU? I want Synology DSM OS, just the OS, not their overpriced HW – running Xpenology was so far the most stable solution I've tried so far.
Internal naming references are where the money's at. It's the only way one can discuss German cars without going insane, for instance.
24:00 I still don't know which iPad I have =x
I feel you Dan with the Bitcoin, in the same spot… HDDs went poof, no idea where it has gone.
I knew about bitcoin way back when, it was worth 1usd or less and used mostly for buying things online without dealing with exchange rates. I was going to mine some to buy pizza but it wasn't worth the cost of the power it would have needed. Didn't think people would be stupid enough to put value in to what is essentially an arcade token for the internet.
Resume @28:00
You guys touched it with the Xeon Scalable family but I feel like you missed a few things that make this even more hilarious. The Xeon Silver 4210 is a generation newer than the Xeon Silver 4110. The Xeon Silver 4310 also exists. Then you have your Xeon Gold 5000 and 6000 series. The first number does not dictate whether or not if the processor is the newest generation or not, which is what they are even calling out AMD for doing, where only the 2nd number of their product lineup says something about the generation, here it does too. And what the hell is the difference between Gold 5000 and 6000. I build servers with this as a job, and it isn't always very clear what is what, but let's call out AMD for doing EXACTLY WHAT WE DO.
Stupid bard can't open YouTube's own links to make time stamps.
100 people staff media company making 3 hours livestream with dedicated producer, writer and with special ad segments cannot post timestamps to the comments?
As an audio only listener, I really wish Linus and Luke did a better job of actively explaining what was on the screen at certain times and what emails said because as I listened to this in the car often, I don't really enjoy missing some context when it's apparent it's only on video
Please start streaming wan show in 4k ❤(and audio quality drops notably in ad section)
“My kid can’t buy into the convenience of being a part of the same eco system as his friends” is a peak android/linux user personality take.
“What do you mean it’s convenient, over her we do things the harder way and we customize! I don’t wanna USE my phone I just want a launcher that turns all my icons into little pen*s pictures!”
It's such a bummer what happened with the backpack… i mean such a small "oopsie" and now it's all… damn 🙁
I'm so rooting for success for LTT so stuff like this makes me so angry and sad that the company takes huge hit like that..
I mean what other company would be so forward about it and deal with the issue in such a way?
LTT shows how everyone else should handle their customers.
RIP timestamp man :(, I miss you, so much easier to skip questions/Merch
I think anything AI created must have non removable stamp saying "created using AI" even if it's music . Otherwise soon we will start seeing fake videos of someone doing some crime , and then just everyone seen the video will accuse them for no reason .
Hey Linus I be been following you for a while now, so I decided to give u a chance to feel like Mrbeast. Can u give me a laptop for solidworks and cad apps plzzzzz love you
I don't think it's a learned behavior to see the obvious difference between Brad Pitt and Kevin Hart.
The behavior that is learned is to avoid describing people by skin color.
Luke, How about: Thanks Emma! Love ya too 😀
Nokii?
timestamp guy where are you?!?!
