My ios is buggy af
1:25:14 this is also messed up for the UK too, we split between metric and imperial however, it gets even more confusing, as people are swapping out from imperial, I use to do my weight in stone and lbs but I’ve been using KG, but no one ever uses raw lbs and probably couldn’t convert 200lbs to stone quickly
why do you care so much if you can get a card on launch, why is it so important, just wait a few months. this happens every time for over 10 years, not its even worse because of scalpers… just wait…
49:32 it also happens on the chrome, I think it’s safari engine and keyboard issue.
After having to speak to Dell customer support over the past year, I've never felt that phone support was particularly helpful. However, what specifically felt incredibly unhelpful was the fact that they do not have email support, they have live chat via whatsapp but the service agents seem to constantly change without saying anything to you and when a chat becomes several weeks or months old as mine has much of the information is lost which just makes the whole process a sanity grind.
HMD is literally right across the street from Nokia HQ, founded by close friends of Nokia and several of Nokia's mobile division workers joined them after they bought the rights to Nokia's mobile backlog(and name)
They were making Nokia phones from 2020 onward and then finally switched to calling their handsets HMD to separate themselves from Nokia's old handlines.
They are firmly in the budget middle ground and havent put much effort into making a flagship but they HAVE started integrating old Nokia lumia designs into their phones recently
Yvonne sounds clearerthan Luke when Linus rings here and holds the phone to the mic lol
To be fair to china I think each country should keep its users data, not in the sense the government can access it, in the sense that uk citizens data should be stored in the uk.
I would happily pay 5 dollars more per item to have phone support.
Linus is definitely missing the point with the iphone SE, despite how good VFM it is, a phone that costs this much was never what the iphone SE was. The average iphone SE user wouldn't know what SOC was in their phone (or even what an SOC is) they wouldn't care either. they just want iOS without paying stupid amounts of money for it. this price tag will remove a lot of those customers and send them to alternatives like Samsung who can offer options at 1/3 the price that are quite capable phones.
Nividia knows what they are doing, they are artificially creating scarcity to push up prices, they realised this at the start of the crypto/covid time that the less cards available the more some people will pay, and the greater the profits, they know exactly what they are doing. Sadly people are willing to pay stupid amounts for these cards which is the only reason they are so stupidly expensive now in any case.
I remember the first time I experienced an earthquake. I was just standing and felt some shaking and my brain was like "we're disoriented now" It only lasted the amount of time youd expect the feeling of vibration from somebody hitting under the floor with a sledge hammer to last.
@Linus you are wrong about IOS 18.
Because it has been like that since at least IOS 17, and maybe before that.
I have seen so many issues, hence why I got a refund and went to Samsung who I hate.
I am an Apple ecosystem guy.
Problems:
Contacts re-rendering
iPhone first party buttons not working, following a screen transition.
Keyboard keypad not appearing on Dialer (phone primary use)
Keyboard not appearing in other apps.
These problems exist on iPhone 11-16, on IOS 17 – 18, tested on all models in stores.
Apples fix policy is to pretest screen issues with their aweful calibration app, with big bulky squares (pointless) and has to finish completely at which point the calibration tool says success (no fault)
This results in them saying No Fault found.
SO the Apple Store reps then takes your phone and snaps the screen in 2 peices so you can get a replacement handset, which does not fix the issue.
The problem is this disquises the issue within internal Apple processes, meaning they do not know of screen issues.
53:48 linus is talking about every sony phone
The f mic you using at home ??? Xbox bar ??
Luke using audio processed on a 50 series GPU.
He'd be better utilising the HP call Centre IVR.
How is this Apple opening the front door? Hackers are not law authorities and cannot issue warrants, unless you have a corrupt cop but at that point you have bigger problems
For someone who reads things so well normally you just can’t be objective where apple is involved and just decend into a rant most of the time
The task button and back button ALSO can't be swapped on the Google Pixel phones. I don't understand why some android devices let you do this, and others don't. It seems like something that should be standard…
luke looks like an AI model. Like something was off.
Love LTT, but the LTTStore must shape up! At least update the status on the site for backordered items. Regardless of the explanations and excuses provided on this stream, have the team relisten to this stream starting at 4:57 until 6:50 minute marks. Please be better and practice what YOU preach guys! You complain about the big guys, but you have become "the big guys" and don't appear to know it? Still love the shows, but "you are killing me smalls!" Three months wait, I reached out for updates, get ghosted for OVER a month, finally get fed up and sent TWO cancellations today to kill my $474 order… Then magically receive an automated update last night from the LTTStore that makes it appear like I just placed an order, a label was printed, and we are now waiting on the shipper? No "sorry" extra Retro screwdriver thrown in for the wait, nothing… What gives? I know you are trying, but relisten to your own words (4:57). Am I crazy for being wildly disappointed here, or is this a random coincidence?
Buuuu u suck! Only Worms World Party

game devs are gonna start optimizing for amd
As somebody who's run mint I will be the one to yell at him. Are you even a linux user if you use gui?
Nvidia dont care about the bad press theree getting because of GEFORCE NOW.
I give GPU's to buy for desktops to fizzle out in the next 15 -20 years and everythig just be SUB based on
More power efficent handheld or built in hardware on TV's
1:42.55 hey Dan are you using OBS? Noticing the split screen view doesn't have the virtual remote Luke. Just caught my attention thinking if I were doing this I'm using OBS there's probably ways on other things. I would create a scene and then put that into the split screen view. So that whatever is updated in that scene is updated in the split screen. Like say a virtual camera. Although I know this is probably something that hasn't really come up that much the scene probably just has the camera angle overlaid.

Comcast or xfinity has points when your calling in depending on selection it will take time when your on hold to tell you about the online help system when i call in i want a real person not fucking electronic stupidity
Linus is being a mental again, if there’s something wrong with his phone but everyone else’s phone is fine on iOS 18, PERHAPS THERES SOMETHING WRONG WITH JUST HIS PHONE! maybe it’s got some bad memory or a slight issue with the processor, before using it as ANOTHER excuse to whine about apple maybe take it back to the store and get another one and see if that’s the same
50:00 as an apple user Apple has been making things bagheera and Bunge are my 10.6 Snow leopard laptop runs amazingly well (apart from the fact that nobody wants to update the stupid TLS certificates) and I can't count the number of crashes and weird things I've had in horrible user interface experiences on the modern system that I haven't managed to force myself to update to the new Version with the new System Preferences I mean settings.
A 15 minute mandatory wait time! yeah that'll be really helpful with the nondescript error "37#$6347rtfer%^$^&uytw67te6t" that basically means your HP instant ink credit card expired…
When bots buy themselves out of the stock to increase their AI capabilities… It's nuts out here folks
What if Nintendo doesn’t release “years old hardware” but actually just waits until they can make a proper launch where everyone can actually buy one and there’s lots of games. If no one can realistically buy a ps5 until 3 years after launch, isn’t that effectively launching with 3yo hardware? Interesting thought
Lol Australia is pretty much the same with our measurements!
.
Except we do use KGs for our weight.
