I have a bin of about 100 loose cables ranging from HDMI, DP, USB, Power etc. Currently they are in 1 big tangled mess. What's the best way to organize these cables. All the tools i've found online are focused on organizing cables that are plugged in. I don't want to wrap each cable individually and I want easy access. In an ideal world I should be able to take out a cable and put it back within 5-10 seconds and not have to worry about coiling it up and tieing it off.

That's some crazy shrinkage, what temp did you wash it at?

 

Oh and people can talk about cold wash all they want, but if I got a proper sweaty shirt, a cold wash won't do the trick.

I do normal mode on my washer and dryer idk an exact temp.

To be honest, their response times are ridiculous. Even disrespectful. No doubt about that.
But as I "know" Linus for the last 10+ years, he probably won't hire any random support staff. It needs to be a perfect fit and the new hires have to think like him because they can cost a lot of money if they refund everything or if they unsettle customers/fans. 
It's a thin line in general and he makes it even thinner with his perfectionistic character. Furthermore, applications are scarce at the moment and good apllicants are even scarcer.
(I still appreciate you, Linus and your Team!)

Ya but I don't think a 10+ month/onboarding process is reasonable in any company maybe 3 or 4 months but beyond that I think its 100% lmg's fault

"Striving for perfection is the greatest stopper there is. You'll be afraid you can't achieve it. It's your excuse to yourself for not doing anything."

I find it kind of odd that support times are still insanely long. Back in January of this year I opened a support ticket that took weeks to respond to and in August I opened a support ticket that took weeks to get a response. To the support teams credit it seems like more urgent issues (i.e the support ticket for me to change my address of an order) are answered a bit faster (5 days) but it sounds like they  are still understaffed and seeing its been 10 months that I have been experiencing slow support there should have been time to hire more support agents, is this something LTT is actively looking to do. And with knowledge of backpack and screwdriver launch I think this should have been expected to have higher volumes of support tickets. Does LTT have a plan to reduce the support time what is the goal for the response time. I think the industry standard is 24-48 hours but it would be awesome to see LTT go above and beyond and implement a live chat. 

P.S. I personally don't see this is a huge issue, its inconvenient yes but I am glad higher priority support tickets are being answered in days instead of weeks. 

Here is a comparison of 3 shirts. The 2 on the left are the new ltt blanks, you can see even comparing just these 2 shirts they are have wildly different sizes even though all 3 of these shirts are XL. Its to the point where the black adblock shirt doesn't even fit me. Then when you compare it to the AA shirt you can see how much it actually shrank. I was on "normal" wash cycle and "normal" dryer which is fine for all of my other clothing but for some reason the ltt blanks shrink a significant amount. I understand that the best way to wash clothes is to do a cold wash and hang dry and I do that for nice clothes but for a $20 tshirt I should be able to wash and dry it normally without having it shrink to unwearable levels.

Is this just me? (also something to note i've had the aa shirt for a lot longer than the adblock shirt meaning its been through even more wash/dryer cycles)

I am running into a slight problem right now and am searching for a solution. For the past few years I have been using google home minis (1st gen) as my music listening device. However, I am looking for a bit of an upgrade, I want something with more bass as that is really lacking.

Here's what I want to be able to do, I want to easily be able to stream music from my phone or ask google assistant to play music using my voice while also be able to output audio from my computer (i.e aux). I know one solution would be sonos but I don't have the money for that. The reason why I need both is its really nice when people are over to be able to allow them to pick the music while they are on my wifi without having to fiddle with Bluetooth. The reason why I want there to be aux is when I play beatsaber or any VR games while people are over its pretty boring for the viewers to not have sound.

Here is my checklist

• Affordable
• Control music via Google Assistant
• Chromecast the audio within the Spotify app
• Multiple Speakers i.e at least stereo preferable with a subwoofer  
• Use it as an audio device on my windows pc.

I have looked into chromecast audio but that is discontinued and expensive. I have also looked into hdmi adapters for regular chromecast to splice out the aux but that seems a bit janky.

I don't think Grafana is the best option for graphics fyi, its primarily made for live data to monitor systems. A much better solution would be to use D3 JS which allows you to have literally hundreds of types of graphs, from there you could use puppeteer to export it to an image, pdf or you could have live interactive graphs on the labs website.

I think pulling the Oura sponsored SC was a mistake. I know there was the mispronunciation however I highly doubt that was the only reason why they wanted it pulled. When I watched the video every single comment I read was complaining about the subscription. Literally every single one. I don't remember reading a single comment that didn't mention the subscription. Also Linus has been using the run without a subscription and is grandfathered for life. With backpack delays, lack of a clear warranty, and now giving into sponsor pressure to remove was is essentially a bad review its getting difficult to trust LTT and their editorial process. 

for(let i = 0; i < 10; i++){
    console.log( Word1() + " " + Word2() + " " + Word3() + " " + Word4());
}

If you want to run the log 10 times you would do something like this. Anything you put inside a for loop will run as many times as the for loop runs.

10/14 of my shirts are LTT, just did a clearing of all the old clothes that don't fit and this is what is left. I am basically a walking lttstore ad at this point.

This also doesn't mention my water bottle, underwear, jackets/hoodies and soon to be backpack and screwdriver

Hi,

I am trying to exchange some items that I received for xmas and I want to confirm that support@lttstore.com is the best way to contact. I have send 4 emails with only an automated response. Is there another way to get in contact with support?

I mean, if you're into a bit of kvm/qemu, you'd be able to have both linux and windows, and be able to utilize the 6 screens at the same time. You can ask me, if you want.

 

Nah, if ima use windows ima just use WSL for my linux stuff.

Apparently, nvidia's propietary drivers don't allow this sorta behaviour. If you had AMD setup, sure, it'd work. With nvidia, sorry, nope. 

Yup, so either stick with the open source drivers or go back to windows

It's as new as possible, that won't help. It's nvidia that we can blame now. I think only one of the gpu's is being actively detected, causing the upper half of your rig's monitors to be basically stained mirrors. 

Yes but the 2019 update says he ripped out 1 of the gpus and is using onboard graphics. and the 2020 update he swiched to a radeon card with 6 ports

oh no, turns out this might not be possible

Could you check in the outputs section of arandr? There is a DP section there, and i think you can activate and disactivate displays from there. Otherwise, you''d have to mess with xorg.conf. We don't wanna do that, so try to update your system. Could you tell me which version of ubuntu, and which kernel version is on your system?

Kernal version is :5.11.0-38-generic
I could maybe update that if you think it would help fix it.

iamroot@iamroot-Z390-AORUS-PRO:~$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID:	Ubuntu
Description:	Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS
Release:	20.04
Codename:	focal

The displays are there but I can't activate them. 

I was on fedora before I was on ubuntu and had the same issue and this post solved it.
https://ask.fedoraproject.org/t/fedora-34-nvidia-kernel-module-missing-falling-back-to-nouveau/13785/18

but thats wayland so it won't work here. 

This is pretty much a clean install of ubuntu 20.04 with all packages up to date.

Don't use lxrandr use Arandar because gnome will override lxrandr

 

Use arandar to generate a script then tell Gnome Tweaks to autostart that script alternatively drop the script's command in a text doc called ".xprofile"

 

This only works on Xorg, Xserver and NOT WAYLAND

For some reason ubuntu doesn't even see the monitors connected to my second card at all. it does work on Nouvue drivers which I am using for now but I want to get the prop drivers working for gaming

OP, could you check if you're using wayland or xorg? If you are using xorg, then use arandr. I'm a dwm user, so don't know about wayland display settings.

Pretty sure I am using xorg

I just recently switched from windows to ubuntu and I am having a bit of troubled getting the proprietary nvidia driver to work with all of my displays.

I have 6 (technically 7) screens spread over 2 gtx 1070s (no sli) the displays plugged into the first GPU work fine however the dispalys plugged into the second gpu are deteced by X Server however they are not displaying content. (they are on and you can move your mouse over them just no desktop or windows) 

This does work with the opensource drivers however I need to figure out what configuration i nee to get my top row of monitors working.

I have 2 X Screens (X Screen 0 and X Screen 1) X screen 0 is working however I need to get X screen 1 to display content. Here is some debugging info. Let me know if you need any more info.

What about an iPad? Not exactly tiny, but if you just need it to join iMessage-only conversations and FaceTime at home, it's a lot less expensive than most iPhones.

 

If you do need constant access... well, that's when consolidating to an iPhone might be better. The Pixel 4 is a fine-enough phone, but missing out on an important conversation or a video chat with your family? You can't really put a price on that. Just remember that the iPhone 13 is expected to debut on Tuesday (September 14th), so don't make any purchasing decisions until then.

Ya I was thinking about a refurbished Iphone SE I can get one for $250ish.

Since probably 9th grade I have been an Android fan, currently have a pixel 4, and i'm interested in getting an IPhone in order to get access to IMessage & Facetime aswell as some other things.

My question is, has anyone here ran both Android and IPhone, what was your experience like, are you still currently running it or did you switch back to 1 phone.

Edit the docker configuration then, why are you trying to run docker exec?

You need to define the FQDN under Variables in the docker config

I already tried that but it didn't change anything https://gyazo.com/2cc1f23a2374f2f85bbff4e04ec3aae0

also sh doesnt work either

I am using the https://hub.docker.com/r/prologic/golinks/ 

and I need to change the fndq var to the correct IP instead of local host

I get this error with my docker container anyone know a fix I can't connect to console and when I do a docker exec on the container it does this,

OCI runtime exec failed: exec failed: container_linux.go:346: starting container process caused "exec: \"/bin/bash\": stat /bin/bash: no such file or directory": unknown

I am using the golinks app

It works for some other apps like home assistant.

honestly you don't need to spend 2500 on this. you could easily spend 1500 and have a very similar experience. Unless you are working with MASSIVE 3d files or endcoding your streams into lots of different formats there is no reason to spend this much. It might be (future proof) but besides those reasons I would get something like a 2070 with a 3900x and spend the money else where. or if you really don't like money you can just give it to me
