  1. Or even better, are they really even needed much anymore? In the DOS days they were used quite frequently. With W10, I haven't thought of them in years. And maybe a integrity check on spinning rust after a power outage. Now, it seems like either your OS does all this stuff in the background and the only time you think about running this stuff is when your drive is on the cusp of dying. OP, try running Crystaldiskinfo (if on Windows) to see if there's SMART messages around a possible drive failure.
  2. Sorry if this is redundant elsewhere, but my topic suggestion: Windows 11, who asked for it? Before the W11 VM leak, we were all motoring along with Windows 10 with it's constant cycle of upgrades and (sometimes) patched security holes. Seemed to be fine. Now all of a sudden W11 comes along and we all have to throw our trusty old PC's out to have some esoteric security flag on new hardware no one really asked for. Really, Word and Excel don't need a ton of horsepower, and I could give a crap about rounded window corners. My couple year old machine does just fine, thanks. (1st gen Ryzen obsolete? GTFO bloatware Windows) My gaming can be done just fine by whatever my budget can handle video card wise and W10. Is this some ploy for MS to sell some new licenses and keep the cash cow rolling? They're upset that W10debloater extracted all the spyware and popups they make revenue on, so the new version will stop that? (They couldn't have rolled out a new creators update to 'fix' that?) But this gets back to my original plan. If you like Windows to begin with, (take a seat Linux/Mac fanbios) did any of us want (or actually NEED) a new refreshed version? There's some reason for MS to backpedal on the "Last version of Windows you'll ever need.' You guys do a bang up job cutting through a lot of the marketing fluff. Do you guys have some behind the scenes info what the real driver is here to set us straight? Or maybe just some educated guesses presented (somewhat) fairly to be hashed out in the comments section?
  3. You’ll know they had when 7zip’s splash screen tells you your free trial has expired.
  4. What if he has less subscribers than T-Series?
  5. Looks like I need more patience. Even with username affirmation, it sometimes runs thin. Plus, I still couldn’t watch the Wan show stream mid-week. That’s what happens, you let us into your lives and we all of a sudden become possessive and demanding. The life of a celeb. But first, check out the link to PIA below. You tripped me out with the family day comment above. I heard Linus say it in the stream, but thought he was referring to it in the ‘today is Sunday and it is our family day here at the Sebastian house, just like every Sunday.’ Not in the context that Canada has a national holiday called ‘Family Day.’ Learn something new every day.
  6. Not looking to start a direct drama debate, but does any of these shenanigans have anything to do with the lack of LTT content the past 4-ish days? Usually they were good for 2-3 videos a day, and seems like LTT is barely squeaking out one. I dunno, just speculating here, but LTT is usually good about pre-taping episodes ahead of time and then distributing them out consistently, and that just hasn’t happened the past few days. Is something else going on behind the scenes? Trouble in Linus land? That damn MSI dinosaur had a hex on it and it’s taking hold? Or, will LTT staff reassure us things are going back to our regularly scheduled programs after they fix a small technical issue...which we’ll talk about in today’s video. But first...Tunnelbear!
