Hi All, As or the title and here is the article: https://www.securityweek.com/laptop-maker-framework-says-customer-data-stolen-in-third-party-breach/ The first few paragraphs give the story: Rather a shame but it seems more and more likely that it's when companies are breached not if Kind Regards Simon Zerafa

So it seems that a lot of people throwing shade at GN really haven't watched Steve's video about the issues at LTT. Or if you have they you really didn't understand what Steve said. Go watch it again and really listen this time. To be clear I watch and enjoy both channels but to call Steve out for point out the egregious errors LTT been publishing and the poor way they previously handled criticism are deluding themselves. There would be no changes or reflection going on at LTT now if Steve hadn't published what he did in exactly the way they did it. Yes, public criticism is hard to take and its doubly worse when it's accurate and fully justified. No I wouldn't be happy either. LTT hopefully will learn and be better for it. When Linus understands and accepts this hopefully he will contact Steve and thank him. That will be the sign he's understood and taking everything onboard and change has arrived. Yes that will be hard but I suspect Linus can do it. The situation with Madison is really fucking disturbing and if 1% of what she says is accurate then LTT has much more serious internal issues to resolve. In most serious UK organizations the type of behavior she describes would get you fired. I suspect it would be in Canada also, at least it should be the cause for very serious ramifications. Let see what the independent investigation mentioned in the Verge article brings. Edit for additional comments. That the meeting which was apparently covertly recorded and is now on YouTube was even necessary is the issue. The people working at LTT are supposed to be adults who can work professionally with each other without resorting to harassment, bullying, toxic and unnecessary work schedules and even it seems instances of sexual assault. Seems like the LTT "family" isn't going as well as they would have liked to believe. If it actually ever did. Frankly I don't see the so called independent investigation working out. If staff are honest, speak up as to their experiences and detail what is actually happening they will probably be demoted or required to leave to "resolve" the issues. Those engaged in promoting the toxic workplace will get away with it and problems won't be resolved. They will be ignored and the status quo will remain. Quite sad in many ways but nothing lasts forever. LTT won't be here in its current form in 12 months unless they really do clear out the toxic employees, managers and supervisors and I can't quite see that happening. Too many of them are personally connected to Linus and he does call the shots whatever his CVO status might imply.

Hi, An RTX 2080 Ti Graphics Card mod with 44 GBytes of VRAM would seem to be a fantastic idea for a show topic https://videocardz.com/newz/nvidia-geforce-rtx-2080-ti-gets-a-44gb-memory-mod Assuming this can be mode to work perhaps the Labs team could benchmark the result and then comment on how successful and worthwhile the results are? Kind Regards Simon Zerafa

Hi Guys, Thanks for the responses so far! :-) Other than the Noctua are there any other recommendations for copper based air coolers which work well? Kind Regards Simon Zerafa

Hi, Interesting recent video about using Liquid Metal TIM. This lead me to to thinking about testing this for myself on my ancient Haswell based PC which has a stock Intel cooler which is working fine to be honest eve with a modest overclock on my ancient Core i5 CPU. Which Socket 1150 air coolers would be compatible? Something with a copper core I'm thinking so what would be the LTT recommendations for a reasonably priced air cooler? :-) Kind Regards Simon Zerafa --

HI All, So was all of the data eventually found and determined not to be corrupted, or was any of the data lost from the server? One assumes there is now a backup of that data elsewhere? Was one 'interesting' video in the so called 'Chinese' sense of interesting :-) Kind Regards Simon

Hi, Some suggestions: "We need more Gravitas" "Gravitas on Order" "More Gravitas than YOU can Handle" If you run it as a series then perhaps folks can join in an suggest additional ones on the same theme :-) Kind Regards Simon PS +10 Geek Cred Points if you get the cultural reference :-)
