r2724r16 got a reaction from Aza_ in New users quoting and replying to people...
Lol, maybe they should complete a very short (but mandatory) tutorial on how to quote/tag people. Just so they understand the basics.
I agree.

r2724r16 got a reaction from Aza_ in New users quoting and replying to people...
So very often, new users on this forum won't quote/tag people.
For example: A new user asks: Is this a good gaming PC? We tell the new user if it's good or not, how to improve on the build, we ask any questions we have, etc. And when the new user tries to resond to our replies, we don't see their response and they don't get the help they want/need. And I think this happens because new users just don't know how to quote people.
So my suggestion is that when a new user signs up for this forum, they be shown how to quote people. So that when we try to help a new user troubleshoot or solve a problem, that we get their replies and we can respond to them.
I want something like this to be shown to new users when they sign up:
The LTT forum is one of the most popular and active general tech forums out there (AFAIK), and I believe that new users should be able to get answers to their questions, which'll only happen if we see their replies, which'll only happen if new users know how to quote/tag others.
Let me know what you think. Thanks!

You are just a little unlucky to come across some extremists. That's all. Sorry to hear that your dinner was interrupted.

Wow good for you. I wish you the best of luck. It's an extremely competitive space, but it's still possible to innovate and make money if you've got the stuff!

r2724r16 reacted to Dillpickle23422 in I hope I could make your day, whoever redeems this.
So, I bought a new controller, and I already have game pass. I recieved a 14-day free trial for xbox gamepass, and as I am already a customer, I cannot redeem it :(. To whoever redeems this code, I hope you have fun playing games!! (fyi you have to be a new customer to game pass, you can't have already have it, it won't accept the code, saying you have to be a new customer).

r2724r16 reacted to TheBean in save certain posts
can we get a feature to save certain posts as kinda like a 'read later' type of thing? I like how reddit has a save feature so if you need to reference something in the future or show somebody something, its quick and easy to find.

r2724r16 reacted to Goru in Jen-Hsun is Lisa Su's uncle
Did you know, Jen-Hsun from Nvidia is actually Amd's Lisa Su's uncle. They're competitors and family at the same time. Maybe one told the other at a family meeting about their plans and so the other was forced to make such good GPUs.

LTT content choice is purely dictated by views and clickbait with sponsored content as filler.

r2724r16 reacted to RollinLower in PSA: don't buy aliexpress PCI adapters.
So I have a little warning for all of you guys looking at these:
I recently bought them for my rig, and I ran them on 2 RTX 2080 GPU's. They do look awesome, and they clean up the cables real nice.
So I put my PC on standby and go to my parents in law for Christmas. About 2 hours later I get a call. The apartment is on fire!
Basically what happened, the PC went out of sleep because a cat probably jumped on the desk or moved the mouse around a bit. The PC booted and idled for a little while.
Then the bottom 8 pin adapter either shorted, or got so hot that the foam on the back caught fire.
Lo and behold, a couple minutes later the entire PC is an inferno.
The neighbors notice, and thankfully manage to put out the fire with a powder extinguisher. Sadly the powder also destroyed all my network and server equipment in my rack. As well as all my peripherals and custom keyboards.
The fire department managed to confirm the fire started in the bottom adapter. It's also almost completely gone, while the other 3 are still somewhat intact.
Be careful people!

r2724r16 reacted to Spotty in RIP Tyler
Deeply sorry for the folks at LMG who worked with Tyler and his family and friends for the terrible loss.
Tyler didn't appear in LTT videos often but he was still known to the community as being part of the LMG team. The video featuring Tyler winning the upgrade to his PC is at almost 10 million views, placing it in the top 10 of LTT videos of all time. It's nice to see that the few times he was in videos that he was so well received by the community.
RIP Tyler

Linus just tweeted that unfortunately we lost Tyler. Tyler was an amazing person, according to what most people said. And from what I saw on camera I agree. I'm really sorry for his loss. If there is anything the tech community can do to help his family, Im sure we'll be able to. May he rest in peace.🤍🤍
EDIT ;
The tweet ;
They might do a charity stream ;
