    Mixzzz got a reaction from CityCultivator in Gamers Nexus alleges LMG has insufficient ethics and integrity   
    Not quite sure you understood the message here from GN. As a viewer who doesn't watch all videos and WAN shows, I had no idea that benchmarking process is still in its infancy and you cannot apparently trust the results. Considering how you were advertising LTT Labs, I was expecting that the results were going to be as accurate as they can get. Was there a disclaimer that these results might not be accurate? No. Also, if you know that they're might not be accurate due to the fact that you have a new testing process in place, why not double/triple/quadruple check your work? "...a work in progress that is very much not done..." is not a valid argument for putting out misleading information to the public. "...that we've communicated needs to be treated as such" then put out a disclaimer before your graphs or something because not everyone follows LTT all the time.
     
    And it kinda baffles me that LTT as seasoned tech reviewers get so much basic info wrong(like the CPU cache one) and this of course leads me into the next paragraph.
     
    Give your employees more time to work on each video. No one is asking you to publish so many videos in a week. I'd much rather have fewer videos but with higher attention to detail. And your employees seem to begging for this. When you see everything as: "This extra work hours will cost me extra xxxx$" and start to push things out the door as is, I think that's a really bad signal that your quality is going downhill.
     
    Like for example videos/projects with Alex in it. It is a total cringefest 95% of the time and I'm not sure it is the fault of Alex but rather time constraints. It is astonishing how many things you cannot seem to do properly with the amount of tools you and your team have available. Often times it seems "oops, got the wrong thing, no time - lets flex tape this shit together and hope we don't kill expensive hardware" or something along these lines. Many of these crazy "science" projects could be so much more interesting and entertaining if done properly...
     
    I have watching you for like 11 years now(off and on but still). For results accuracy for last few years I've been turning to GN because it is just amazing how much attention to detail they give to this rather boring stuff. LTT is starting to feel like Top Gear/Grand Tour. Its supposedly a tech channel but for entertainment. Now when you have started to market yourselves as being extremely accurate and getting so many things wrongs its getting kind of concerning.

    Mixzzz got a reaction from BuzzingBee in Best sub 400$ monitor   
    Well, I was going for 27, 1440p 120hz+ within 400$ and most of these were either not available or had some sort of big con. Anyway, I just checked and somehow one of my local stores got 1 M27Q-P apparently in stock so I ordered it and I'll see if they can actually deliver it.
     
    Also, according to rtings M27Q isn't that bad at native scaling regarding text clarity and not bad at all with cleartype so that would fit me but what's even better news is that apparently M27Q rev 2.0 has RGB pixel layout and should perform just as well so I'll probably just order the M27Q if the P variant isn't available.

    Mixzzz got a reaction from da na in Experiences with non-techies   
    So here in Latvia we have a shop called Capital where the shit is extremely overpriced. So I found somekinda Bitfenix prodigy build for ridiculous price, it had an i3(3210), GT630, 4GB RAM and so on... The conversation with the one of the assistants:
     
    Me: Can you tell me about this computer?
    Assistant: Yes, this computer has the newest series intel i3 processor which is blazing fast.
    Me: What do you mean by "blazing fast"?
    Assistant: You will be able to do video/photo editing without waiting very long for it to render and you will be able to play all newest games on Max settings.
    Me: With that video card?
    Assistant: Yes, it will run games like battlefield and other games on max settings.
    Me: At what resolution?
    Assistant: At the highest.
    Me: What about memory and storage?
    Assistant: It has a lot of RAM and big HDD.
    Me: And how much is that?
    Assistant: Is has 4GB of RAM and 750GB HDD.
    Me: Is it quiet?(It had stock cooler and almost no other fans)
    Assistant: You won't even be able to hear it in a quiet room.
    Me: You realize that that CPU isn't "blazing fast", that GPU won't even stand a chance to run games on Max settings at "highest" resolution, 4GB of RAM and 750GB HDD isn't much and that the PC will be loud because it has stock cooler and no other fans?
    Assistant: Sir, I'll need to ask you to leave.
     
    Omg, I laughed so hard after that...

    Mixzzz got a reaction from terrytek in Car Enthusiast Club [Now Motorcycle friendly!] - First thread to 150k! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯   
    Yaay, Im getting almost rust free chassis for my BMW e34 from Spain  Gonna have to swap the suspension, engine, rear doors and trunk. Everything else I'll get from another car as my front fenders, doors and hood has rusted severely. For now I'm gonna swap in my M20B25 just to pass MOT in my country because I'm doing a chassis swap, not getting another car. Then later its going to get M50B25TU and maybe I'll stroke it to 3.0l. 
     
    Thinking of wrapping it in dark grey(not sure about the color yet) vinyl wrap as it is much cheaper than painting the whole car and also provides better rust protection.
     
    Gonna post the progress here but most likely its only going happen sometime in July as I have exams now and I'm going to Germany in June to work for a month there.
