    The Fairphone 5 would be a great option. It's easily repairable so he doesn't need a case.

    I know you guys are planning to do automation and lots of tools are involved. I think you should do something additional. First you need a log of historical data, second you need some option to enter what company promised. Enter your expectation. Then calculate the delta in the variation, this will help to an extent. I know automation is something that will ease things up. But for every benchmark. One random game/ tool etc need to be selected and do a manual testing without any tools, and see how it compares.

    From what i understand billet lab contacted after sending LMG the product for the review, may be even after review that they need the prototype back. So LMG has no legal obligation to do so only a moral thing to do so.

    Yes I do agree, if you reject 5k upgrade LMG or LS will tell ok. And won't think about it again, but the problem is fear of an employee to tell no, I have seen that a lot.

    They had hr firm. That handled hr stuff. So .... could reach out to them.
    Like any organisation it would be try to solve problems with people you have problem with. Contact your pm of it is not resolved. If still not resolved, contact hr. If hr not taking seriously, try contacting. Some stakeholder. If nothing works out. Quit.
    If the issue is assault, approach law enforcement, they may help you to get proof as well.
    And if you are imagining things, there is little you can do. 
    Some companies makes employees work beyond possible, you can quit in that case.
    They can do an audit on the hr policies in practice. Also can do a complaince audit.

    Usually all rules will be hosted somewhere and you gets the link on joining, in all companies I worked so far, especially if you are working in tech industry. So I am guessing it is same here as well. But 99% will not look that. Especially if it is 1st job. Current HR cannot do audit, they have not told, they will do audit, but only investigate claims by the person. I think full hr audit and HR complaince audit should be done. Yup the 5k is taxable the recieving party should pay the tax.
    In every organisation anything verbal is useless, everything should be documented. I think since this is so public it is being done.
    If you adhire strictly by rules, you can expect everything by rules, so there will change in treatment to you, as long as it adhires to the rule. 
    Example they should not give you projects that are of not so high profile due to this.

    Most companies shares the link to hr policies on joining. Don't know about specific countries. Also any changes should be notified. The only way doubts can be cleared is doing an audit and publish it's findings. I still behave some kind of professionalism is missing in the LMG culture. May be it is due to the industry. 
    Example
    Asking employees can someone come and help me in moving, I will giving hourly wages. I would say no, but some may feel, what if i say no, will this affect my promotion.
    your boss come to your home and give a pc and shoot everywhere, I would reject the gift. Maybe allow him till the living room to give a coffee.

    I am torn between unsubbing and keep my subscription. One one hand this is extremely terrible, and on other hand, this channel has been extremely influential to me. I like gamers Nexus and other channels, but those would have never shaped me in liking tech. But Madison insident is just so illegal, untethical, and saddening. On top of that recording of 2021 with employees response to it just show the culture. Also I read about a kid and mother committed suicide because of him during ncix bankruptcy indirectly due to linus.

    jos got a reaction from Luiz Laurentino in Gamers Nexus alleges LMG has insufficient ethics and integrity   
    They have mentioned the labs are not fully functional yet, process are being set up, so at a transition time.l, Errors are expected. In this case a large company is trying something new. Everyone on the other side(labs) are new to LMG. It is new for Linus as well. He is used to long rants and entertainment. So there will be learning curve and need procedures and steps to make things right. At this phase, mistakes are quite common. What I would suggest for LMG is may be spin off labs to seperate channel.

    jos got a reaction from ebprince the computer nerd in Ryzen 7000X3d is burning out.   
    3d vcache of ryzen 7000 series are heating up resulting in internal components to heat and buldge. According to tomshardware multiple users have reported the issue in reddit. Initially it was reported on 7800X3D. Some reddit users are pointing to Asus motherboard as culprit.
    Update 
    Numerous report of non 3D vcache is also poping up. Some pointing to soc and expo voltage issues. And is not just Asus.
    For some manufacturers new bios. Which limit voltages is available 
     
    Update 2
    With new update from gamers Nexus and jays. Please stay away from Asus. A bios update that won't fix the issue but voids the warranty. Their products are consistently lowering the firmware quality, qc and warranty service. 
     
     
     
    I thought modern cpus has in built protection and will prevent damage. I remember it being said in many of Linus videos. He has even run cpu without heatsink just to see if everything is detected. May be it is some design flaw in 7000X3D or flaw in motherboard power delivery. There was issues even for the 7950X3D that Linus recived from AMD. When it heats the motherboard usually sends low voltage 
     
    i have few question if Asus has went down the drain which brand is the next choice? Is AMD 7000 series a reliable option? Their bad memory controller and stability issues with ram is what concerns me the most.
