  1. If YouTube doesn't listen to Linus my voice is non existent. Just making an observation. Maybe a quick update on what Linus opinion on it is because they way I see it is YouTube has completely given up.
  2. Noticed every comment has a whatsapp comment on it. I thought that google was working on stopping this
  3. Seeing everyone else's review where is LTT video?
  4. So this is going to be long winded. I finally broke down to buy a 6700xt most I have ever spent this amount on a GPU before Got first card in middle of Aug. First thing I did was uninstalled old drivers and installed new card installed all updated drivers. Everything went perfect, worked great until windows updated and card would lock after 30 seconds in windows. I figured out I could get it to work if I installed my old 6500xt removed all drivers downloaded new drivers again install them. Then installed 6700xt worked great again. Worked great until driver update then same thing again. Had to do it a few days again so contacted GPU manufacturer and they said it was GPU so I exchanged it and got a new card New card I had to uninstall drivers and whole process again. Worked for over a month then did drivers update windows updates was good until today. Today it did it again. I had to install old card scrub drivers. Tried to install 6700xt to install drivers but it would lock up about 30 seconds after windows started. So installed my 6500xt installed drivers then I installed 6700xt and it worked perfect. Thinking maybe a fresh install of windows would help. What is everyone's opinion.
  5. Watched a few reviews and they seemed to be suggesting used as alternative to new. They are only slightly cheaper with the risk of it not lasting as long as new.
  6. Employee treatment is very important. You need to have a person that is working for the employees.(Not your wife) I know everyone will say unionize but not sure I like that either. You need to hire some one who's job is too go to task for your employees. When that person comes to you, YOU listen. Your employees are not your friends. I made that mistake when I started managing people. It is not ideal with a few employees but when you start getting over 10 employees it normally ends very bad. From recordings you have an idea who is responsible! Fire them and quit covering for them. I want you to put your daughter in Madison's shoes. How would that have effected your handling of situation. Now here is what you need to do for Madison. You need to show her you care. You did her wrong. Now an apology will do very little you need to show her the change you are making to protect others. Now the reason this part is so personal is because my wife went through a horrible job and it almost destroyed her and our relationship. She is still on antidepressants I don't think people realize the lasting effects of a horrible job. Now the strength of Madison is amazing. I hope you really support her. When you stood up and said you would investigate it is like telling your fans to attack her till she is silenced. I hope that's not what you wanted but that was the effect. This world right now is so twisted.
  7. This right here is the reason I unsubscribed on YouTube If you want to do this do it on new channel. If it came to floatplane would get rid of membership. I would love to know who's idea it was and kick them in the balls. Not really but is the only thing that has truly frustrated me on YouTube in years even more then the scammers.
  8. surprisingly it doesn't take much I know this as I have one.
  9. New game console bag problem Magnet around heart can interfere with medical heart devices. I know this risk is low but needs to be a big warning on this product. Like the Iphone mag charge.
  10. I'm trying to get into my account for a problem with my water bottle but can't. I ordered a water bottle very early and loved it. After the new spout lids come out I ordered two and water bottle for my wife. My spout lid was always really hard to get on so I just didn't use it that much. I have since started using my wife's water bottle and I miss mine she wants hers back. Does anyone know how to get in touch.
  11. This maybe a hot take but I think the used market is a risk and prices should reflect that. What a person bought it for means nothing. A 2 year old graphic card is not worth 75 % of it's MSRP maybe 50%. Buying new it comes with a warranty so you have a set amount of time that it is going to last. If I was buying from a friend I may pay more but not ebay. Last month I bought 6500xt for 100 cnd used off Facebook because price match risk
  12. I switch to a receiver and bookshelf speakers 2 years ago and wouldn't go back. I have a Yamaha R-S201 stereo receiver and Paradigm Mini monitor bookshelf speakers The receiver I payed 20 bucks off Facebook and speakers where part of 150 dollar surround sound I bought off Kijiji. I run my headphones off the receiver and when I want to turn off speakers I just click off A speaker button on front of receiver. The only thing that sucks is having to have Voicemeeter always running to have sound going to my home theater when I want to watch something on the couch. It would be horrible going back now that it's setup. What does everyone else run and what did it cost?
  13. I know this is computer forum of computer enthusiasts but do we all see how much this can change the whole market. I see the good. Say tomorrow they said you could buy a 6500 with a 1080 in for 370 CND wouldn't you jump on that. I would be building systems for my kids, wife, even parents in-law. We knew this was coming look at consoles. Why is this taking so long?
  14. Was an old picture popped up in memories. Lasted 6 years then sold it off. I built it for 600-800 Started me down the path of following computer tech.
  15. i5 2500k over clocked to 4.3ghz 8g of corseair vengince ram liquid cpu cooler and a 7850 video card plus a 120G ssd. I watch Linus to figure out what to build. I think it took 6 months to figure out what I wanted!!
  16. Got my shirt today, was design I have never seen. Is this common I thought they just sent out old designs that needed to be cleared out
  17. So now I'm older and I'm not poor. I don't understand how GPU's are going up so much in price. They are saying next gen high end cards are going to between 1500-2000. How does a person justify that price? Where I live that is 100-133 hours of minimum wage work not accounting for any taxes being paid. So pretty much a full month of wages just to buy a GPU. If you took that money and spent it on a GPU, you wouldn't be able to have rent food or anything that month. I live in a country with a good min wage. What am I missing?
  18. Setting up an Ebay account now I think I'm going to sell unless I see a compelling reason not to.
  19. SAPPHIRE NITRO+ RX 590 8GB Special Edition GPU Sold listing are 650
  20. got a R9 270X and a 2400 g so I got a on-board
  21. I bought a RX590 18ish months ago I paid 260 for it well that card is now going for 750 on ebay. I don't game on my computer as Keyboard gaming hurts my hands. (medical issue). Should I start mining or just sell my graphics card.
  22. Such sad news. I can't even imagine what the team is going through. I hope all that read this go hug your kids wife and make sure you at least call your parents often. We all take for granted the life we live. I was 30 when my heart stopped one day I was healthy and fit but happened to have a heart condition I didn't know I had. I'm here now but I know how important it is to always tell how much you care for them. Sending my heart to the whole team because I know how much the lose of person can hurt.

    Luke's Bird

    So I seen this picture and it got me wondering how the back of Luke's monitor looks
  24. I have had manufactures warranty based off the manufacture date. Maybe make people register when at checkout maybe yes it will have to be a work in progress but does anyone else have ideas. The only other idea would be to only sell in stores and limit it to one per person but that can't happen anymore.
  25. So with everything going on with videocards being sold out due to resellers do you think if they only offered warranty to person that originally bought it do you think that that would stop this all dead. I know it might be hard to figure out but I think that people would be less likely to buy a card for over MSRP and these resellers would be trying to return cards fast
