Hoping for some advice. Looking for a android app that will help keep track of a shared shopping list and food levels in the cupboards and Fridge/Freezer. Linus talked on the Wan show last year about an app he uses but I couldn't find it, but I'm in Ireland so it may not be available here due to data privacy regulations or something like that (I've stumbled across this before). I am currently using Todoist but it's just a list and really not ideal, grand for a shared shopping list but they keep making changes and it's getting harder and harder to just use it they way we used to. I need to be able to have a shared shopping list with my wife, something quick and easy to use, something we can just untick items that need to be bought again each week/month. Ideally keep track of what food is in the freezer and fridge and if it can keep track of expiry dates even better. Same with the cupboards. Notification of expiring or expired food would be good too but not sure I want to be bombarded with notifications so ideally a way to control the number would be great also. I don't mind paying for the app, in fact if it's good I'd like to pay.

I'd love to see a video on the Flash point Archive, the guys talk (especially Linus) about old flash games dying with such nostalgia, I'd love to see a video revisiting old games, their favourite games and giving some exposure to the website https://flashpointarchive.org/

I was blown away by how serviceable it is, so simple and quick.

Unfortunately it would have pushed the debris into the headphone and potentially onto the membrane.

I figured here would be one of the only places people would feel my pain and relief I am working form home, my son has had a bad start so I was running late and stressed and decided to have my quick and dirty breakfast (peanut butter on toast) at my desk, something I don't normally do for obvious reasons. While trying to plug my laptop in I leaned over and knocked off my lovely Sennheiser HD58X from their hook into my peanut butter on toast , Now its inside the grill on the inside Knowing I'm late, I've a packed day I leave them to dry in and assuming its going to be a thing to take them apart I just ignore it. Thankfully I got finished my main task very early and I looked into it, here is the relief, thanks to Reddit I discovered its unbelievably easy to remove the grill, its spotless now

I really like this idea, great suggestion

Noted, was not aware of that. There won't be a next time Seeing as you've not killed the thread though I'd be interested in if the topic traffic has increased in the last year, I know it will obviously fluctuate but overall is the average better or event stayed consistent? I honestly don't want a section if its not warranted but then again I'd love to see it all together Also, I believe that I agreed (and if not I meant to and will do so now) it should be handheld in general, not steam deck

So, I think handhelds, over the last year have definitely proven to be much more than a passing trend or fad. Guys, would you be willing to reexamine this request? I honestly feel that the subject of handhelds is not a passing trend or fad and is unique enough to warrant separation. The only question is, is there enough discussion on the forum to warrent a new section? @LogicalDrm @Spotty @SansVarnic If its a no that's fair enough, but lfg is not massively active just as an eg To the mods: Sorry to resurrect a topic but I did not think it was fair to create a new thread as of the mods points may not still be valid. But if you want me to create a new one please just close this thread, pm me to tell me its OK and I'll create a new one

I love the transparency, and we can see what will happen when. OK, some people's opinions will differ but at the end of the day, if the staff decide and agree that it's a 1,2 or 5 severity you should ignore the people screaming unless it's a overwhelming majority. The truth is that this is all a matter of opinion on a lot of the cases. My only issue/question is with severity 4. What are the corrective actions that would be taken? I really want to push for the hard thing to be done, the one that has the negative algorithmic effect. Un-listing a video, hiding it, and moving on should not be an option. Fixing and re-uploading the video is what should be done. I say this for two reasons: If you took the time to research, write, produce and record the video, edit, review and publish it then the topic if something I absolutely want to see. I value you guys, your work and opinion and if it gets that far it's worth watching. Forcing yourself to make this mistake over and over again, to take the hit, will encourage you to make this mistake less, be more vigilant and do better in the future. If there are no consequences then why do better? This is why I'd advocate for the tough, hard route. Lastly, it's been odd not watching any LTT videos these last 9/10 days. Because I've watched so many there is little to nothing in the back catalogue for me to watch. I miss you guys, your videos and humour. Obviously absence does make the heart grow stronger In saying that, take your time, if it takes days, weeks, what ever. Just know we are waiting patiently for your return, take your time, do it right. Ignore any negativity and just come back strong.

Why is it that it is always new members with random posts that don't make sense, are not written with correct syntax, hard to understand, alway always asking open ended/unclear questions making it seem like there is some kind of conspiracy? @darki333 I am not targeting you, you are just the most recent example I've seen. Note to all newbies to the forum coming here because of the controversy. If you want to join in on the conversation, ask a genuine question or give genuine feedback/suggestions/criticism or just generally contribute, please take into account that poorly worded and/or disrespectful comments will be ignored (or potentially worse, but not normally around here). Think about your post, take note that the community here is not huge so new members with a low post count on the heals of something big will simply be dismissed unless they make sense, are thoughtful and respectful. If you are new and I have to read your post a second time to understand it I'm extremely unlikely to comment, if I need to read it a 3rd time I've already moved on. Just an fyi

Not that you guys need the feedback, but I thought I'd throw my two cents in. For perspective, I've been a viewer of, generally most LLT videos, since I stumbled onto the channel a long ass time ago (unboxing at the fountain days, I actually was researching the PC pre-unboxing cartoon linus, but not by much). Since the I've just simply watched most of the videos, unless you are covering something I've zero interest in, and as I consider myself ae tech nerd, that means most videos. In saying that, I've been mostly a passive viewer. I rarely comment, I just consume mostly. I've also been a fanboy if I'm honest with myself. All of this stuff going on has had me re-examine my perspective on LTT videos and LMG am I'm realising now that I have been a fanboy, I've not been aggressively defending you online but if has had another effect I'll get into below. I first found out about the controversy was this video, as I'm not on the forms socially, or regularly (I work about 70ish hours a week plus commuting and I've a young son, plus I'm in my 40's, I just don't have the time), your video was the first I saw of it. Well ok, I saw the GN video come up in my feed but I was supposed to get back to it and only did today. After watching your video I saw Phillip DeFranco cover it and today I watched the two GN videos on the topic. My conclusion is that Gamers Nexus is mostly correct (except for the auctioning off thing, they know what Linus meant, it was not sold for profit but auctioned odd for charity, and it's a fair distinction to want to make, Steve should have been a bit more understanding there) and I can see that you guys recognise that too. You are all clearly putting your heads together now to try to remedy the issues going forward, and that is commendable. Thinking back now, I can see the errors you guys were making but j understand why. If anyone in LMG cares specifically about my suggestions or requests: Any short firm, quick firm video should be reshot or be dubbed before released, there should be no expectations here. As an example, these are ones I listen to while driving, working or doing general chores and do not watch, thry are almost always in the background. In fact some of them I consume on a podcast app. Technical reviews, any graphic card reviews and the like, where there is a graph, unless there is an extremely good reason for it, the same cards and same colours should be used. If there was a testing fail, they should still be on the graph but noted as to what happened. Too many times I've seen one graph with one set of cards, games or set of results to have another similar graph have a difference between the stuff listed. It's jarring and makes it much harder to compare to the fly. As an example, in the (I believe, but I might be mixing up my videos) the AMD cpu review, the comparison graphs changed at one point, of on the cpu's I was using as my grounding perspective so I could compare to my experience was not in some of the graphs and I lost my perspective. Corrections should be editted in, there not possible (or where it will take too much time) the video should be taken down and re-uploaded. A video staying up with an annotated correction should be the exception, should required director level approved. Seems mad, but making it such a high standard will raise overall standards. Replies to controversial topics, public communications from personalities/companies or events should be approved by 2x senior managers from different departments or at a director level. Consider hiring a public relations person, but have it only be part of their job. I don't want to see the WAN show or the general honesty change. Or maybe have someone in the business team deal with all official company responses. Linus is just too emotional and passionate about the company and community. Honestly I think I'd be the same in his shoes. If technical results are off by too much this should be investigated and, if needs be, the video delayed. This will help catch mistakes. Allow the writers power to put a video on delay, if they are not happy with the content, they should be able to put the video on hold, pull it from the schedule and spend more time reviewing the content. I feel a little bit (but honestly just a tiny bit) disappointed with the errors. Seems, l like you have said, errors due to self imposed pressures and goals. But I feel that parts of the community (a part I squarely place myself in) have let you down by either staying quiet or defending you when errors have presented themselves. I will start posting on the forum on videos that I'm unhappy with or where I see errors. In saying that, you still have my love, loyalty and respect. Linus and Luke have shown themselves to be men of character, integrity an honesty going all the way back to the start. I've been following the WAN show since the garage (linus chewing on camera ) days and I feel I know you (and I know I don't). I have never missed a WAN show, either live or vod (a tough ask give I live in Ireland ... christ, how many hours is that? ) so I have heard your opinions on do many topics. To further that, the LMG staff have, in almost all cases, all shown themselves to be people of character, honestly and integrity and they have done nothing but build on the trust that was already there. Things that you should know: Having someone say that a company (in this case Asus) generally produces good products is not an issue. It's a good statement, it's generally true and just seems to be high horse vs from Steve. I actually think it's a good comment to make from time to time, if some companies are known as generally reliable and trustworthy, maybe other companies will aspire to that? Having relationships with Noctua, Framework and others is not a bad thing in my eyes. Although maybe you should have a internal person not connected to those companies review decisions to ensure some kind of check for bias. Re GN, so there is no confusion, I hold them in the highest regard. They are professional, have the highest standards, have integrity and are extremely competent. I agree with most of what they said in both videos on the subject, but some of their points of comments/points of view seem overly harsh and don't give the LMG staff credit for just being caught up in their own orbit, blinded by it. Lastly You need to reduce the number of videos that you publish weekly. I'd like to see a backlog of videos that are ready to go, finished and waiting. At least a couple of weeks worth (I know that will take time) so they can ve reviewed and analysed properly. Obviously time sensitive ones would be excluded (product releases etc) but any project (like the nuts watercooling ones, Linus house videos, crazy fan videos and so on) could easily be part of a good backlog giving staff time to breath and taking pressure off. If a company/organisation/personality is unhappy with a review AND gives details of errors, that video should be reexamined careful by someone (ideally the writer) and then someone else who was not already involved. In my place we call this 4 eyes, a second set of unrelated eyes giving it a fresh look. Take more time consuming ways of fixing the videos, less corrections in annotations a d more checking and editing. Don't be afraid to pull a video down, fix it and re-upload it. It's really critical to do the hard thing. I know this has a negative impact on your analytics but even more reason to do it. It's the correct thing to do, it's the hard thing and it will force you to make sure it doesn't happen again. Like Like said, you have to let things fail so you can fix them. Stop the band-aids.

I don't have the expertise, equipment needed to diagnose what the actual issue is or the equipment or parts to repair what ever is wrong. Its a 300 euro headset with a board about the size of an apple watch with an extremely small and complicated board layout. All I know is it heated up, the on light stayed on despite me switching off the off button (a physical button) and never worked after that. I had plugged it in before to usb-c chargers without incident and the docking station was further than I was arsed travelling to. Clearly the internal board on this does not have the ability to communicate it's charging requirements

Does anyone know if there is anyone like Louis Rossman or Steve from TronicsFix in Europe? All of the electronics repair companies I know of will just replace parts and I need my plantronics headset fixed. I plugged it into a usb-c charger (a firsty party good one) but seems it over charged/heated it and it's stopped working. If I send it anywhere around here I'll be told it can't be fixed (or they will charge me half the price of the headset to replace a board) but I'm certain that just something small broke as there was no blue smoke or smells of burning electronics, if I can just get someone to honestly try to fix the board it will be good for years to come Any suggestions?

I've an unraid server with a B460M-A PRO (MS-7C88) MB in it and looking to expand the storage. It's just mainly used for plex, storage, backups and soon Nextcloud Any advice on the best card to get? nothing currently in the PCI slots

Honesty I would not sell it unless you need the money. If you look at the specs of my pc, I'm still playing games with that. Most AAA gamas will run, yes medium settings at 1080 but it's not a bad experience. Witcher 3, Cyberpunk, Death Stranding, Fallout, ATS, etc. In fairness I'll be replacing mine soon but the point is that 2 years is not as long as you think.
