I created a purely Javascript solution to display a view counter during the wan show.

• Run it in the console if you're confortable with that kind of thing.
• The chat needs to be displayed within the page for the script to run properly.
• And the "secondsToRefresh" value will be the number of seconds before the counter shows up. Then the number of seconds it takes before it refreshes (I liked it at 1 second of refresh period, but one could argue it's not necessary, so I set it to 10 by default.)

const secondsToRefresh = 10; //refreshes every 10 seconds, change value before running the script to refresh more or less often

function refreshList() {
	var btn = document.querySelectorAll(`.chat-view-container.chat-messages-container:not(.hide) .header-button.btn-user-list, .chat-view-container.chat-users-container:not(.hide) .header-button.btn-user-list.btn-return-to-chat`)[0]
	
	if (btn) {btn.click()};
}

window.setInterval(function() {
    var subTitle = document.getElementById("addedSh*t");
    if (!subTitle) {
        subTitle = document.createElement("div");
        subTitle = document.getElementsByClassName("video-title")[0].insertAdjacentElement("afterEnd", subTitle);
        subTitle.outerHTML = `<div class="video-title" id="addedSh*t">
    <span class="title-text" style="font-size:12px" id="viewCount">View count: test</span>
    </div>`;
    }

	refreshList();
    document.getElementById("viewCount").innerText = "View count: " + document.querySelectorAll(".chat-viewer-name.ng-star-inserted").length;
	refreshList();
    //console.log(document.querySelectorAll(".chat-viewer-name.ng-star-inserted").length);
}, secondsToRefresh * 1000);

great news, it's now available in canada :

You should try reviewing 1 of the original creators before Volta as they were quite late to the game. You can find many on Kickstarter and Indiegogo. 

The biggest company that's still around is Chargeasap who have like a 5th new version (and the world's first) that also works with PD charge, great for Macbook users like myself: 

 

I would gladly include an additional review if you can provide one! I reviewed what I had purchased.

I know the difference between HDMI 1.4 and 2.0 in terms of supported features, but is there a difference in the pin out or a physical difference on the port that would prevent a motherboard/graphics card manufacturer to develop a driver that would allow support an HDMI 2.0 signal on a previously HDMI 1.4 port?

Turns out... the module kind of acts weird when I use it with my motherboard 12v RGB header with Aura... but when I use my Case's controller effects... it's fine.... soooo...

Imma stop using my fans with Aura and just use aura for the LEDs that are underneath the motherboard.

well... that was quick... I found this: https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B07QPYSC82/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Rather cheap and I'll update you guys on how it worked for me.

I just got my new RGB fans and didn't realize they were A-RGB while I only have a 12v RGB header on my motherboard and the controller that came with my case (a Be Quiet! Dark Base 700). I've been looking for a 3 pin rgb controller but damn... these manufacturers don't like the users that don't buy only their products...

I couldn't find any on my usual Canadian stores, o I am turning to you. Do you know of a USB A-RGB controller (maybe PCIe ?) that would work with Asus Aura, that does not use proprietary connectors and won't cost a kidney or a lung to buy?

At this point, just an independent A-RGB controller that won't force me to buy new fans would be almost fine... but I would rather have the USB version if it exists.

I believe they addressed it somewhere along the line, but the vid is probably edited down because lmg and corridor cleared it up between themselves.

Yeah probably. Can't help but wish they would address it publicly somehow... the video is still out there and even if their vote ratio is awful, there probably still will be people among their subscribers that will deprecate Linus over that video without even knowing what they are talking about.


(*yeah... that's probably an already lost battle)

They did a collaboration with them about it

https://youtu.be/-W6JfiC-QBk

wow I actually forgot that video loll

Still though... They edited out the part they were wrong instead of doing an actual follow up video on that. Almost like the Verge did...

EDIT : Also... they didn't really address all the bitching in the original video...

Don't know if it's a potential wan show content, but I fell on this video and was a bit curious
 

First, I was intrigued... I like those guys, they are competent in cinema and VFX matter as well as being charismatic in most of their videos. But seriously, this video looks more like a shitshow to me. The saddest part of the video: when they were proven wrong on their "proprietary SSD being better than generic" point, they just edited it out. They forgot to remove the captions though so you can still see what they said to defend RED's overpriced generic SSD.

I am super curious to see what Linus would have to say about that. I know the video is from 2017, but it was edited recently. It's not the first time we've seen Linus trashed on by other youtubers and every time it happened, it resulted in awesome content. So I would like to see that one as well. They bring up some very interesting points in their... let's be honest... super chaotic video! So maybe there is something to be worked on here.

Turn on closed captions at the 3-minute timestamp :  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fuSJ5k1orBk&t=180s

P.S. : If LTT already made a response to that video, can you please share it in this post as well?

Now i'm waiting for someone to watch the video and summarise it for me....lol

 

OP - if your not O/C then single cable with 2x 8pin will be fine.

if you can then 2x cables from PSu to GFX card is better but not esential

TLDR (or TLDW) there was a difference. There seemed to have a little more stability from having two PCIe cables instead of having only one cable with a daisy-chained connector.

The difference was definitely measurable and noticeable in benchmarks but would result in quite limited performance increase in actual gaming situations.

Jayztwocents did a video on this a few years back. If you are not looking to hit record breaking overclocks just run the one cable with the two 8 pin connectors. Stability wise Jay saw that using two separate 8 pin cables sometimes allowed for slightly higher stable overclocks but not anything that would be noticed in daily operation. 

I was lazy... wanted to click... video was not here... had to stop being lazy so that future guys could be.

I finally pulled the trigger and bought a case with no 5.25 bay... But I have hope I can mod it and 3d print something to fit my all-in-one card reader.

Dark base 700 has the same modular design and is about $100 cheaper.

Yeah, but there's no 5.25" drive bay

I'd prefer it to be the kick humanity needs to stop freaking buying Apple products.

No, mentioning a single comparison phone is not required, nor is the point.

 

This is about the ethos of a brand or platform and not specific devices. The court case is regarding the longevity, are users being forced into upgrades or additional costs due to deliberate methods on the part of the vendor. It could be argued that putting non removable batteries in any device is planned obsolescence for instance. This is now the majority of all phones so not unique to Apple. It could also be argued that not supporting an OS after a set length of time is also planned obsolescence, yet in the case of some Android devices that can be as short as two years, while all Apple devices have so far been supported for 5 years or more.

 

There is a perception that Apple are the bad boys, and that perception in my opinion is misplaced in many ways, or at best poorly reasoned. Apple are far from perfect, but are no different to their competitors.

There are more than 15 android phones in the span of a year and only 2 or 3 iPhones. You can't group "many" android phones in an argument like you did. if you compare the iPhone with a bad android phone, you're not saying the android phone is bad, you're saying the iPhone is bad but you could find a worse android phone. If you compared the iPhone with a specific model or even a specific brand, I would consider your argument complete. But the only thing you did is say there are android phones worse than the iPhone without even factoring there prices.

The iPhone has a bad reputation for its battery life because compared to other phones with the same price, they are worse, most of the time. That said, I understand the value of the iPhone is not in its battery life and more in the features and apples ecosystem that is just superbly designed. I just don't care about those because I want my phone to last more than a day on a single charge, which I never achieved with an apple device.

I think if your read my comment you will see that I did not say all android phones. Sony do a great job and seem to offer excellent support, LG too. The same cannot be said about all Android vendors.

True, but now, you need to compare the iPhone with a relevant phone. with your precision, you're basically saying your argument is either incomplete, or irrelevant... You can't say "Many android phones are bad" and not even include one example in the same price range than the iPhone.

Both my XPeria and my G6 were much cheaper and hold their batteries much better than the iPhone 6 my mother uses while having much more useful features (useful for me that is). sure my G6 is newer, but my XPeria M4 was roughly released the same year.

Ok, so I can see that violation from here:

So they might have a case there. On a side note, the warranty system is extremely vague on timeframes. 

 

That’s essentially saying “we don’t know how long the warranty should be, so figure it out”. Seems ripe for exploitation which I guarantee Apple will use in their defense. 

Either the law gets updated, or apple is forced to update their warranty services. Both results would make me happy.

On the "Planned Obsolescence" front I actually think Apple fare better than many of the Android based phones. At least the OS should run for 5 years to a "secure" standard. You cannot say the same about many Android devices especially on ones where side loading is prevented.

 

I tend to disagree, I had no issue at all with my Sony XPeria m4's battery or system: the earphone finally broke after the phone was dropped too many times, so I had to switch to an LG G6. If it were not for me being clumsy, I would still use my Xperia.

Even that is just a drop in the bucket for Apple. So it sounds good on paper (or screen), but I doubt Apple really cares that much.

I would say they don't care at all, but if the customers win, it would be a good kick. Even if they don't, if the news spread, it may eventually end up motivating other provinces or even countries to allow the same, which will certainly make the bell ring someday and force apple to improve on their service or the lifespan of their products.

I can try to post a translated version for those interested.

 

They're basically asking for some compensation (yet to be determined) and $300 punitive damage per person.

 

Since it was authorized (the class action, not the amounts asked), we'll probably get a registration form available soon I guess.

 

 

It's actually the French division of CBC, and they're all around Canada, though the bulk of their production, and the HQ, is in Quebec. The CBC also operates some Aboriginal content under 'CBC Aboriginal'. Just thought I'd mention it.

Good point

I use a kingwin hard drive switcher in my 5.25 bay. It switches the oiwer on/off hard drives. I originally planned on using it to switch operating systems between windows and linux, but now I just use it for normal storage and turning on my backup drives when I need them. It also reduces the noise from the drives as I can turn them off when I want to record audio.

At this point, I'd rather have a case without it, as it frees up internal space, and soon everything will be completely silent SSDs (thank the Gods)

 

I agree disk supports are now obsolete, but there are other things you can use that bay for.

Even if they are obsolete, I still use my drive to read the DVDs and Blurays I already have. As well as playing old games I bought a physical copy of.
