  1. So because some Americans review bomb EU stores it's ok for Europeans to review bomb Canadian stores? That's ridiculous, yeah people can dislike shipping costs but at some point you have to grow up and realize that's the cost of shipping large items internationally and there's nothing LTT can do about it. They did what they reasonably could to accommodate EU customers and people have to stop complaining to them about something that's out of their control.
  2. Here is my thoughts from LTX 2019. You've already seen it but might be worth another look
  3. @VVill I'm in a little bit of a similar situation last year. My guess is the default response would be wait a year. Unfortunately what it comes down to is is it worth the extra time, paperwork and risk to bring on one more person. As someone who will be 18 just in time to volunteer at LTX I definitely feel your pain but I went last year with a regular 2 day pass and had a blast. I'd recommend just going before volunteering.
  4. The group has been created. We currently have 2 members and are lvl 1.
  5. I am planning on making a LinusTechTips network on Tuber simulator and was wondering if anyone would be interested in joining? It'll take me awhile to save up the bux but once I do any LTT fan is welcome to join.
  6. How about you message me with a parts list and I'll take a look at it?
  7. Unfortunately, I don't think it's possible. Personally I don't find the 2 increment volume that big of a deal.
  8. What else do you need on your motherboard? 10-gigabit networking? Wifi? How many M.2 slots do you need? Your current board has water cooling, do you want that or are you ok with air-cooled vrms
  9. It depends on if you are willing to change your motherboard.
  10. JayzTwoCents did a video with a similar SLI setup but from MSI. I'll link below but he's basically saying you should have at least a 1 slot gap in between the cards. In his case with the cards right up against each other the top card hit 84/85 degrees Celcius immediately with the fans at %100. I know it's not the exact same scenario that you're in but it's very similar. If you're not willing to swap the motherboard I'd go for the 2-slot cards but if you're ok swapping the motherboard I'd recommend getting something with 4-slot spacing between the 16x slots and use the 3-slot cards with a 4-slot SLI bridge.
  11. If you click on the speaker icon in the bottom right you can control the volume in increments of one. I find going up and down in increments of two just fine. There might be a setting in windows to change it to increments of one but I couldn't find anything.
  12. The first one in 2017 was mid August and the latest one was late September so I'd guess then next one would be this September. When the video comes out you need to submit a video. I'd recommend looking at the announcement videos for previous years to get the criteria for the video as this year will probably be similar. Also, please consider moving this thread out of LTX2019 and into something else like general so it's easier for people to find.
  13. Overall I was really impressed with everything. It felt really well organized but there are a few things I think could be improved upon next year as well as some stuff that I think was really good. Bigger! I think everyone at LMG didn't realize how many people are interested in this kind of event. There's more area available in the Vancouver Convention Center and I think there's enough of an audience to use all of it. More of one event. I ended up not doing things like VR or the case toss because the lines were long and moving slowly. If there were 2 or 3 case tosses that line could move way faster and I think more people would participate and do things 2 or 3 times if there wasn't such a long wait time. QR codes linking to the website plastered everywhere would be super useful. Need a floor map? QR code! Need the main stage schedule? QR code! It would be pretty easy to just slap them in the corners of posters. The only place I could find meet and greet times was right outside the meet and greet area on one board. I think a meet and greet area for LMG staff would've been great. That way everyone can see who they want and LMG staff wouldn't be pulled from their work as often to sign stuff and take photos when they're trying to get stuff done. I almost didn't get Brandon's signature because I didn't want to bug him while he was working and just caught him before he left and I didn't get Colton's signature because he always seemed pretty busy and I didn't want to disturb him. Separate labeled signs for the meet and greet. People were all waiting in one line for 2 different creators and when the line split they didn't know which line was for who. I know that it's ultimately Madrinas who makes the call to or to not have a booth but there was a huge missed opportunity to have on-site Madrinas coffee all night long at the BYOC. So many people I talked to said the only reason they don't buy Madrinas coffee was because of shipping prices and LTX would be a great place for people to try it. And the same goes for Savage Jerky. There was that post on Twitter with all those 2080s and 2080tis and I had no clue how to get one. A map with all the places you could win hardware would be great. More random prize draws would be great. Many of the contests heavily favored skill and your average person had no chance of getting anything. Instead of the furthest case toss winning something maybe you get a ticket for every meter (4 meters 4 tickets etc). That way you're still rewarded if your good at something but everyone still has a chance. This idea could be applied to almost every event and would make people feel that it was fair. Throwing stuff into the crowd is generally a bad idea. I think it's a super fun thing to do and I wish it could happen but it rewards the people who are really aggressive and do just about anything to get whatever being thrown and it leaves some people feeling really cheated. I was sitting in the front row made eye contact with Dennis and he tossed a t-shirt right into my lap but the person next to me put his arm out in front of me and took it. It feels terrible, like you were just cheated, and of course me being super introverted and non confrontational didn't say anything to the person, after all its just a shirt. But no, that shirt is going to haunt me for at least a week. Not because I care so much about that shirt but because it was intended for me and someone was selfish and took it. I saw on multiple occasions LMG employees make eye contact with kids and very clearly toss something right to them but before the kid could catch it someone else snatched it. Then the whole process of "No that wasn't for you, that was for him/her" takes place. In my opinion there are only two ways to throw prizes. 1. You have so many that everyone can take home 10 and you'd still have extra so the people who will take as many as they can carry literally can't carry anymore and everyone else gets a chance to grab them or. 2. You pick people from the audience and call them out so it's made very clear that the thing being thrown is for them. ex.You in the pink shirt! Catch! To my knowledge there wasn't a live stream of the event. I know that there was talk of a wireless streaming setup that could walk around the floor but I never saw it. I'm sure there was probably a technical issue, I've worked with a couple wireless video systems and have found them unreliable at best And now you've made it this far here's the positive! All the retro stuff was awesome! As a young person who never had seen 99% of that stuff, It was really cool to see it all and see it working. The main stage ALWAYS had something going on. I almost put this as a negative point because day 1 I felt like I didn't get to see many booths but on day 2 I wasn't interested in a couple of panels so I got to go see booths. Having a place with something always happening meant that even if you were just chilling or eating lunch you felt like a part of LTX. I've ended up sitting in corners alone at conventions before because I didn't feel like going to any more booths and there was nothing else to do and it makes you feel lonely but at LTX I always felt like I was a part of something. James was such an amazing host and read the crowd really well. I don't know quite how to describe it but it was absolutely fantastic, I've never seen a crowd and host interact so dynamically and I don't think I will again until LTX 2020 Merch was available in CAD, a huge bonus for your local boy I never felt like there was nothing to do, there was always a panel, meet and greet or booth that I wanted to go see and I was so busy that I forgot to eat lunch on day 2 The meet and greet lines were long and slow but it was because creators were talking with their fans for at least a minute. Luke got caught up all day 1 because he wasn't just signing, photo, done and next. He had full-on conversations with people. The fact that creators were spending time with people and going overtime on their meet and greet to do so means so much. The game booths didn't call you out. You know that one salesman at the mall who guilts you into listening to their 20-minute spiel and trying this and that. Not a problem at LTX, If you showed interest and walked up to the booth staff would greet you and ask if you wanted to hear about their product or game. It's such a little thing but it's so nice. Tickets were pretty affordable. $50 for a 2 day pass is reasonable and I think it strikes a good balance between recouping costs and being accessible for most people. I will be updating this post as more things come to mind. Can't wait to see you all again next year!
  14. Rep some Canadian tech and benchmark some ATI graphics cards against the 2080Ti. It'd also go with the theme of looking back at old tech and I have an R37LC that you could borrow if you wanted.
  15. That feeling that the company that made this was bought by AMD when I was 4 years old.
