  1. Tf does that even mean, just because something gets more views because naturally more people are interested, does not mean he's doing it for the drama.
  2. At least a part of why there's still growing pains and internal disorganization, is how desperate LMG is to continue to grow and pump out content even faster, despite them already being a massive company working over their heads. I still remember once upon a time, Linus was ecstatic just to have his own channel and independent audience, rather than presenting out of the NCIX backroom. I left years ago when all the LTT content started becoming clickbaity titles and thumbnails, had no idea things have gotten this bad.
  3. The degradation part itself is fixed for the 2nd gens, but by way of changing the battery chemistry to tolerate heat and not actually adding thermal management unfortunately. So in the newer ones, you can heat them up as much as you want and it won't accelerate degradation, but long road trips are still a disaster because the hotter it gets the slower it will charge.
  4. For that specifically? Leaf. It is a really underrated chassis, and even stock, handles very well for what it is. The Bolt is noticeably worse for handling and chassis rigidity. Carving forest backroads with a stock 2018 Leaf during my trip to Oregon: As a car/an EV though? Definitely the Bolt, considering it's significantly better range and active cooling for the battery. The defective batteries have been recalled and are getting replaced, so ones that have been won't just blow up.
  5. Honest question - Are we ever going to have clear normal video titles again?
  6. If you're just using the prebuilt as it is (stock) -> No problem. If you're looking to upgrade it -> We would need more details on the system and PSU itself, and what you were wanting to do to it.
  7. Interesting time for me to just so happen to pop in again. Over the years (since being active here), still been a car and driving enthusiast, and like to actually drive my car and have a good time. Anyone can drive fast in a straight line though, and when most of my time is spent commuting in the city there's nowhere to go fast anyways, I highly prefer having a good nimble chassis that handles well and is fun to toss around. Maybe something went wrong along the line, but what I actually drive: Megan Racing coilovers, Ultra Racing Juke rear sway bar, Cusco Juke front LCA brace, Nitto NT05s, and the really low center of gravity - rips corners like it's on rails. A blast to rip through the city, down onramps, and at the occasional local autox events they host here. Needs a bit more power, plan to do the 110kW inverter upgrade next, once I actually find one to buy.
  8. A Patriot Rage XT and a Crucial X6 SSD, both of which I know sustain much higher speeds than that, especially when reading. This also happens when copying one large file, which was what was happening in the screenshot I took in the OP.
  9. As of recently I've encountered an issue on both my PCs, desktop with Gigabyte B450 Aorus M board, and Asus Vivobook with Ryzen 5500U. Copying to/from USB 3.0 devices seems to be limited to 40MB/s max which is apparently the speed of USB 2.0. I've done some searches and almost all of results I can find seem to be people who have this issue with only the front ports on their PC and not the rear. In my case it is happening on all ports front and back, whether ones that run directly off the CPU or via the chipset. Drivers are up to date on both systems and I've tried multiple different B450 driver versions on the desktop. Is it a Windows 10 related issue? This is happening with >90% of transfers for at least the past two weeks. Every now and then it will start off full speed again, but if it's a larger transfer, after a little bit it will drop back down, and do a "zigzag" speed pattern going up and down between 30-40MB/s. Even Dimitri from HardwareCanucks commented on having this same issue so it clearly can't be that uncommon but nobody seems to have found a fix?
  10. Thank you, finally someone who gets it. It's honestly disappointing to see all the people blaming it on the yOuTuBe AlgOriThM to defend the practice. It has nothing to do with the algorithm. I personally know people who were actually affected by the algorithm, which turned off commenting on their videos, drastically reducing their audience, and they're no longer able to make enough off YouTube for a living, actually having to change their career path and only doing YouTube as a hobby for their remaining fans and small Patreon supporter group. THAT'S being affected by the algorithm. Intentionally making clickbait because you want to make more money, isn't something that you can blame them for as a business, but saying that it's YouTube's fault for it, who have LMG's back as a major content creator, is just complete BS. You can be a good tech content creator without having to resort to doing so. Public image.
  11. While I do understand this, a lot of other large content creators on YouTube (including in tech) do as well, and they still haven't felt the need to resort to clickbait titles and thumbnails. Yes there's overhead and revenue, but there's still having respect for your audience and viewers. As with everything there should be a line between ethics and profit, even if it swings a lot more towards the latter, rather than just being greedy as possible.
  12. Though I haven't been on the forum much if at all the past few years, I still continued to keep up with the main channel and videos that I thought were interesting. The video titles and thumbnails started to contain catchy taglines, but still clearly explained what the product is and the video was about (ex. "I'm DONE covering for NVIDIA - RTX 3070 Review"). However, as of the past few months, there were more and more videos with absolutely nothing in the title or description that explains what it is about, and more and more often they are just downright clickbait. Who came up with this idea, and are we going to go back to clear titles and thumbnails that actually tell the viewer what they're clicking on before watching the video?
  13. What's the background of your question? Do you already have a board and everything for it laying around, or are you starting from scratch?
  14. If any of these services did. At least ones that are free.
  15. You SHOULD get a board with VRM heatsinks, but you don't necessarily NEED one in all cases. With a 3100 you'll be just fine.
  16. Given that they're the same speed & latency, 2x16. Ryzen is only dual channel, so you'd just be limiting yourself for future upgrades.
  17. Actually just got one the other week for the miss to do her photo and video editing on. It's a great laptop for if you need the power and is light for a gaming laptop, but if you don't, it's pretty hefty to lug around all that extra weight you won't take advantage of. The charging brick is impressively small though.
  18. Stock recoveries won't allow access to internal storage, only aftermarket ones like TWRP will and I believe it's the only one that will connect to MTP automatically without confirmation. There was only a certain period of Android devices where they would automatically enable storage access upon connecting to a PC, when they first switched from USB mass storage to MTP. However, due to security risks of this with public USB outlets at airports and whatnot, this quickly became frowned upon and now pretty much all devices require user confirmation in order to enable phone storage to be seen by a host device.
  19. Will they actually show what it looks like is the big question
  20. Somehow they still managed to see a need to produce a 240W PSU But hey, it's got RGB!
  21. You could also go to the junkyard, get a car battery, and toss a wrench across the terminals
  22. Possibly as the latter models were developed later on. Intel's chip lineup is just so unnecessarily fragmented and over the top right now that it's like buying a sedan from General Motors in the mid 2000s, ridiculous. They need to slim the roster.
  23. Thunderbolt 3 is the important part that you're looking for, so at the moment you'll need something Intel. If you're not doing anything graphically demanding and just research/writing work though, you shouldn't need discrete graphics. Pretty much any Thunderbolt 3 equipped laptop will have a good enough iGPU to do high-res for just productivity.
  24. Unfortunately you need an NTFS partition to install Windows on. You could do what others above have suggested of shrinking the partition and creating an NTFS one in the empty space, but honestly that's just as much time and effort as you could be spending just backing up the files to somewhere and doing a fresh install on a clean drive. It's much less cluttered that way and less likely to run into weird issues or poor performance afterwards.
