  1. Not to necro this, but I don't think the video appears in youtube search results anymore lol, I wonder if it's the thumbnail, even though it's censored, and there's nothing on the mousepad anyways. No Nips. Maybe change it so Linus's face is covering the wrist rest? Shame, was up to 5 million views, god bless Tatsumaki. Hope I make it into the next video now that I live in a van. Even searching with the full title doesn't bring it up in Youtube Actually this is super interesting and worth the necro, there's no video preview/Thumbnail in the google results, anyone seen that before? Youtube does not like anime tiddies.
  2. Can you guys like stock Infinite Cable Cables in the lttstore? Like in standard lengths? Cuz I remember trying to order from them, but really you need to order in bulk from them for it to make sense.
  3. Check the Fold 5 video, or maybe he has an update on twitter, Think he said he was going to switch to the Fold 5.
  4. Holy crap I made it into the video. I will probably end up buying a Fold 6 if it has an S-pen in the body, but I ended up having to sell my lovely sweet beautiful overpriced AF S23 Ultra cuz I lost my job lol. Starting a new one in 3-14 business days at least. Hopefully. Someone better let me know when the next Battlestations video is coming, I moved into a Van instead of a Shed and it is very comfy(when it's not hot out)
  5. you really don't have an extra 30 seconds to spare?
  6. If manifesting is real then surely that cute girl will DM me on instagram tomorrow...
  7. Yeah but is adding "7950X REVIEW!" to the end of the click bait portion really going to harm things on youtube? One is using a 6950 XT, and the other is using a 4090. Might also be down to some other specific in game setting, or RAM speeds
  8. Why didn't you guys put the product name in the video title mannnnnnn. The forced clickbait has gone too far this time!
  9. Holy shit, you bought a $3000 cabinet and hoarded all of the extreme edition pillows?
  10. Wait a minute...I just had an idea Using VLC and it's ability to always remain on top Yes because this method is surefire lol
  11. The goal is to almost have it play snake across my display so the pixels get at least a moment to rest, as long as it's only a few pixels at a time it probably won't matter too much visually
  12. I figured...are you sure it wouldn't be "simple" to at least create an overlay that would just go down the line turning pixels black every screen refresh? I asked AMD if they could add something like it in the drivers, maybe the chatGPT program can at least be used as an example. I asked it to create a game of Pong in Lua and that seemed to work fine, most likely it's best just to use it to help learn how to write code, but hopefully it won't be long before AI can just be directed to write full programs.
  13. LG C2 Currently I just have a 2nd virtual desktop that's blank with a black background, so every so often I punch the shortcut keys to refresh the entire display to black. Just being beyond careful with it lol
  14. Damn it chat GPT how dare you! I didn't know how fast it would have to be, 1 second is pretty slow actually considering how many pixels there really are lol....good thing I tried to include a timing feature....It would probably have to be multiple pixels every screen refresh, so a few ms Vs 1 full second. Maybe I can keep talking to it to get it to build an overlay that flips pixels. It told me it was C++ lol
  15. I don't know anything about coding in C++ or Visual Studio, but I went to chatGPT to have it write code that will automatically invert or disable each pixel on a display. with a GUI and a bunch of user controls for the timing of the program, having it automatically run on all displays, and a few other things. As using a process like that should naturally avoid burn in when playing video games in full screen correct? I also tried to add a feature where it would only run along the edge of the display, so that only HUD pixels would end up touched. But does anyone know how to make windows programs, and if the code even works? Here's the final code it gave me. Thanks Imports System.Drawing Imports System.Windows.Forms Public Class Form1 Dim originalBitmaps As List(Of Bitmap) = New List(Of Bitmap)() Dim timers As List(Of Timer) = New List(Of Timer)() Dim forms As List(Of Form) = New List(Of Form)() Private Sub Form1_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load For Each screen As Screen In Screen.AllScreens ' Create a form for each display Dim form As Form = New Form() form.FormBorderStyle = FormBorderStyle.None form.WindowState = FormWindowState.Maximized form.Bounds = screen.Bounds form.Show() ' Save the form for later use forms.Add(form) ' Create a Bitmap for each display Dim bmp As Bitmap = New Bitmap(screen.Bounds.Width, screen.Bounds.Height) Using g As Graphics = Graphics.FromImage(bmp) g.CopyFromScreen(screen.Bounds.X, screen.Bounds.Y, 0, 0, bmp.Size) End Using ' Save the original Bitmap for later use originalBitmaps.Add(bmp) ' Create a Timer for each display Dim timer As Timer = New Timer() timer.Interval = 1000 ' In milliseconds AddHandler timer.Tick, AddressOf Timer_Tick timer.Start() ' Save the Timer for later use timers.Add(timer) Next End Sub Private Sub Timer_Tick(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) For i As Integer = 0 To forms.Count - 1 Dim form As Form = forms(i) Dim originalBitmap As Bitmap = originalBitmaps(i) Dim g As Graphics = form.CreateGraphics() ' Invert the colors of the Bitmap For x As Integer = 0 To originalBitmap.Width - 1 For y As Integer = 0 To originalBitmap.Height - 1 Dim pixel As Color = originalBitmap.GetPixel(x, y) Dim invertedPixel As Color = Color.FromArgb(255 - pixel.R, 255 - pixel.G, 255 - pixel.B) originalBitmap.SetPixel(x, y, invertedPixel) Next Next ' Draw the inverted Bitmap on the form g.DrawImage(originalBitmap, 0, 0) Next End Sub End Class
  16. So...ya know, any of you tech heads gonna preserve some D theater tapes? Surely you guys can cobble together some way to do it? It's too bad there's no release of the actual* OG star wars trilogy for it. Mostly for 60. Mummy, The 61. Mummy Returns, The 82. Terminator 2
  17. As for my update, idk if the heat from shipping fixed it, or if it just needed to completely truly 0% discharge, but aside from random other issues I've had with the display, and having to replace it's power brick, which they thankfully just sent me a new one, the display apparently didn't need to be repaired in the first place. Probably still never buying a portable monitor again though. The OLED ones do look really nice though...
  18. Forget all those big names, review Keychron first, makers of the best keyboards. Then compare all of the big names to this single little company, to see if they compete. Are you guys going to go by price between the companies? or do One Company per video and do the popular options in their line ups?
  19. For the record I was working with some super cheap fans the other week, and the LEDs were turning on when we threw a leaf blower at it.
  20. As an update I can't find a single laptop I like. I found an MX450 laptop for like $300-400 open box, but I'd have to upgrade the RAM to 16GBs. I can't find any Zen 3 laptops with 16GBs of RAM and a 1080p IPS display for $400 No Midranged Radeon laptops even exist. 6500M - 6700M doesn't exist at a reasonable price. There's some 3050ti and 3060 laptops for $700-800 but I really don't need that much power maybe, they're also only 8GB. There's a 6800M top end laptop for "only" $1200 and it seems to unironically be the best bet lol, but I really don't need a secondary PC to be that powerful or expensive although....if I wait a month I can justify buying it... There is a $600 1600p APU machine, so I mean it ain't bad to be sure buuut...there's no way to add an external GPU there either unfortunately. I think it only had 8GB of RAM Though **** The secret code for good cheap laptops is Ryzen 3 3350U . just make sure it has a 1080p and you can upgrade the RAM.
  21. Holy crap are there too many options and considerations. Does anyone know what the best Ryzen APU laptop for the money is? If something is really cheap with a GPU I might go for it(3050 or above) But I figure an APU by itself should give me the best battery life as well? It's mostly just going to be a media hub hooked up to an external hard drive. Might play esports games or do dolphin/PCSX2 emulation on it at most. if I find something Ryzen 3000-4000 for really cheap I might go for it. But for the long haul should I wait for Ryzen 7000? Or just get a say higher TDP Ryzen 5000-6000 APU? Not trying to go higher than $600
  22. Mine is in warranty lol, this monitor is less than a year old, I just want to try and get ASUS store credit at this point because I'm pretty sure it's going to break again.
  23. I bought an XG17AHPE portable monitor, it was great while it lasted, but one night it just refused to charge or power on anymore. I got my repair going and everything, but it seems like the repair tech is trained to look for reasons to deny a warranty. Lucky for me I posted pictures of the monitor the day I got it, and there were already 2 little dents on the speaker grill on both sides of it seen here: They are claiming Consumer Incurred Damage (CID) as a reason to deny the repair and are trying to charge me $160 for the repair of the dents as far as I can tell as power/charging isn't listed anywhere in the invoice they sent. It seems to me they are trying to find reasons to make more money and deny repairs for unrelated issues. It would be like if a fan hub in a case died, but they wanted to charge you to repair a slightly damaged front panel instead. Going to chat with them tomorrow, but has anyone else experienced terrible warranty repair service from ASUS?
  24. I think it's been years at this point, but I'd still love to see the LTT take down all these online business scams. Just setting 2 team members to try their "techniques" or "strategy" out. I've been getting a lot more ads for them again. You get a 2 for one today, 50K a month, 0 experience required.
