[3:14:53] Outro ft. WAN Show channel migration.
Windows is borked. It's like trying to save the telegraph, just let time eat it.
Vibecoding is not a problem per-se. If you vibecode and there's a bug, saying "the AI did it" is not an excuse. You are still the owner of the product and are responsible for its quality regardless of the tool you use
File Pilot is on another level! You should feature it on one of your future videos 😀
LTTStore should have a "tall" profile option to notify and hold tall people stuff😂
It's good news WAN show, but I only hear Microsoft bashing and Linux shilling, then its LTT store promotions, maybe you guys can shake it up a bit with the content?
I'd rather stop watching the show than subscribe to a spam account that blasts constant clips of a show I already watched
There's a Tim Hortons a couple miles from my Home in Katy, Texas. I'll have to see if it is good or trash.
Dude nearly all Trucks in Europe are automatic one pedal go yanks just behind on this one
No hope for Microsoft fixing things
1:52:12
My uncle is an environmental engineer and he has to explain to people that he doesnt try and make things more environmentally friendly, he actually designs HVAC systems for sky scrapers, hospitals and scientific clean rooms!
I did really love the whole room scrapyard wars for the dealsnom furnatire and the audio etc beyond the PC stuff so more of that lifestyle stuff but related to the LTT house furnishing.
Linus Torvalds uses Fedora Linux due to its bleeding edge package and kernel release schedule. It is also the "beta test" distro for the most used version of linux for servers worldwide, Redhat Enterprise Linux.
I've been SO mad on how unresponsive windows feels, rightclick context menu takes several seconds to show up for the first time after boot. I would genuinely want an explanation on what is holding it back so much.
Same with start menu, though I can almost understand it since there's so much bloat.
Waffle House. It is part of our official disaster planning, literally.
We have Tim Hortons in Rochester, NY. I’ve eaten anything from there, but their Dark Roast is the best. Love their coffee. It’s cheap. $2 for a large dark roast. You pay $5+ for a Venti dark roast and it’s gross. By the way, I bought the LTT screwdriver at launch and have used it every day at work since. Last week I was installing cameras at a Mercedes Benz dealership, dropped it off a 60Ft lull and it’s just as good as it was from day 1!
ngl I'm probably just not going to watch the WAN show if it means spamming my subscription feed with clips
vibe coding internal tools is great. made a php page that shows all the current toner levels and errors for all the printers and photocopiers at work. super useful tool.
In Windows i use chocolatey.
On Mac homebrew.
Linux package managers is a whole thing on its own: apt, snapstore, flatpak, brew for linux.
I love my linux os but i think the package manager of mac is far less annoying as on linux, if you need the newest versions of applications.
For example zoom (shitty linux app but i need it for work) is on every package manager on a different version but non of them is the newest. Then you install it on flatpak and screenshare is broken, because f** wayland migration from x11.
Maybe it could that zoom on linux is just cursed…
A Windows XP2 for today's tech would be solid.
what kind of idiots care that someone is using a chatbot to research things on the internet?
Goodbye wan show, it's unfortunate, but I just won't subscribe to a channel that posts clips of the show I just watched and spams my feed
1:47:32 LINUS FUX W/BLACK BOX CONFIRMED…
Not a big rig but I've seen a lot more Vinfast electric work vans around Hanoi these days. I also think they are pretty cool.
When candy crush was pushed to my PC, I knew that was the start of something bad.
@2:22:00 – Absolute freedom requires absolute trust, while absolute trust cant exist, nether can absolute freedom. It sucks, but while we acknowledge the existence of bad actors, we must also acknowledge that methods to police those actors need to exist and that, by necessity, these methods will effect the freedoms of everyone.
Regarding inseam: Workwear companies solve it by giving enough fold at the bottom cuff (do pants have cuffs?) so the user is able to adjust the inseam after purcchase.
needs less pixels still way to watchable
