    Gadrane got a reaction from FezBoy in LTT YouTube Ad   
    You hate seeing adverts on other channels which feature Linus.. how is that worse than seeing one from Pepsi or google?

    You’d still need some way to make the computers communicate without effecting each other’s performance. I’d imagine it might be possible in theory as you can have multiple CPU on one board and multiple GPU in SLI for instance.. however I’d doubt it’s something that would ever be developed as the use cases are small to non existent

    That’s a fair point, perhaps what he was saying is just out of date I suppose. Certainly in the core 2 quad days you’d struggle to hit 5ghz with conventional cooling methods. 
     
    Its a fair lesson to learn that lecturers aren’t infallible, you always need to be critical as they’re only human.

    I always find it funny that people on this forum seems to think that you are knowledgeable about hardware if you have memorized things you can read on the back of packaging for consumer electronics.
    Like "yeah I know hardware, because I have memorized the frequency and model number of a bunch of AMD processors".

    I can just imagine the office conversation...
     
    "Hey, Dave (whatever the Nordic names are translated to there)... I have this requests to make some sandwiches...
    "Oh, great, where should we do this? In the kitchen, here?"
    "Nah, let's go to the sewage treatment plant, oh, and take some dead carcases while you are at it... that's how chefs cook, right?"

    Gadrane reacted to DarkSwordsman in Google asks Supreme Court to overrule disastrous ruling on API copyrights   
    Actually, the way I understand it, Android does supplement the actual Java libraries on Android. The APIs they integrated are the original APIs. Modifying the APIs is a deeper part of the license that they didn't seem to violate.
     
    What Oracle is suing for is the fact that those APIs can be accessed on Android. In their licensing it's a little vague on if that is inherently violating their licenses.
     
    Also, to clarify, printf isn't an API itself but a method of a bunch of larger classes/modules in an API. For example, Java.lang is an API to use the basic Java language. Java.io is an API of methods used to interact with hardware devices connected to the operating system.
     
    To me, Oracle shouldn't be suing Google, but they should be suing all the device manufacturers that implemented Android.
     
    As mentioned before, Google's implementation of Java doesn't necessarily violate their license agreement. They provide the same features and functionality that anyone could download or implement into Android themselves. Also, Android being an open source software means that Google isn't selling it. It's a software that anyone can access and use.

    Click bait sucks. But not nearly as bad as working super hard on a video, titling it honestly, and then having it bomb.  Unfortunately with how YouTube works (and how more casual tech youtube watchers work) it doesn't make a whole lot of sense to title something like "Product X Review", and hopefully with the thumbnail you should be able to roughly figure out what the video about.

    They do this to increase viewership, simple as that. I watch LTT videos because I know they’re of a high quality, each and every one (maybe aside from the weird iPhone rant one lol). It makes complete business sense for Linus to present his thumbnails and video names in such a way and with the quality of his videos I don’t even need to see the title or the thumbnail, I’ll watch it regardless. 
     
    If you guys have such a problem with his videos then I’d suggest simply moving on and viewing other content, nobody’s forcing you to watch anything you don’t enjoy.
