La Belle Patate for Poutine. You can even order one with Canadian bacon and maple syrup for that stereotypical Canadian experience.

AU health insurance provider, 9.7 million affected?
Dredgy replied to Quackers101's topic in General Discussion
The compromised data was just released today. -
I can see that changing in the foreseeable future. Merchandise has gone from 15% of their revenue to 32% - in fact it’s their largest source of revenue - (https://twitter.com/LinusTech/status/1486918784401088515/photo/1) Obviously it’s not as profitable being an extremely high cost outlay, but if they sell say 50000 backpacks (Linus confirmed an order of “tens of thousands”) at $300 each, that’s $15 million revenue off of one product run. Plus add the screwdriver and the rest of the existing lines and intense growth of new products, and it’s easy to see how the business could become majority merchandise. @LinusTech Noctua fans need to be in the core tech lines. Though I guess they do their own black ones now

Preventative measures. Air filters and keeping the case pressure right will stop basically all dust ingress.

A KDE Developers Response Videos To LTT's Linux Challenge
Dredgy replied to Uttamattamakin's topic in Tech News
It was phenomenal for app launching I thought - it could display all my games, all of the Office Suite, all of Creative Cloud, all of my development tools. Everything was in easy reach. It was the thing I loved most about Windows 8 and I used it on Windows 10. In fact, its removal in Windows 11 (that and forced grouped task buttons) is what’s making me consider switching. I am running Xubuntu at work with no issues and loving it, but since at home I’d need Adobe CC I’d likely have to switch to Mac, and no Mac can currently match my PC spec for spec (though the M1 Max might make this moot). Since Windows 11 is basically crappy MacOS at this point there’s not much point staying on Windows, -
It will be fairly competitive I think. I have a Bellroy backpack which is a fair bit cheaper and high quality with some tech consideration, but nowhere near as smartly laid out and compartmentalised nor designed solely for tech carry. My biggest problems have always been laptop/tablet sleeves in a fully loaded backpack bending a tablet (especially new iPads) when I arch my back or otherwise move funny. So I’ve switched to a tote for travel with my tablet and will probably be getting an LTT backpack once the full layout is shown.

While I’ve long since ditched the garbage keyboard, you couldn’t use a 3rd party tool with it because the G keys are detected as F keys (e.g if you press G1, it registers as F1). So you have to use the Logitech software to map them to other keys and then still have the 3rd party automation software to run the macro. and the mappings only apply while the Logitech software is running, so if you switch computers (e.g laptop to desktop or to someone else’s computer to help them out), the whole thing stops working.

Recently did the switch to a Xubuntu at work and while I’ve now been using Linux on and off for over a decade, it still has enough quirks to make me want to kill myself over very simple things sometimes. But for general purpose use I think Xubuntu is a great option, is familiar to anybody who’s used older Windows and it feels a lot quicker than anything running KDE and is a lot less buggy too. For gaming, not sure I’d even bother trying haha.

Actually, yes they do. The law is that the product is covered during its “reasonable lifetime”. For example if a fridge has a warranty of 2 years, but breaks after 10 years, then it is still covered under Australian Consumer law because the reasonable expected lifetime of a fridge is 20 years plus. Manufacturers or retailers are required to replace and will usually do so the instant you mention the ACL. A GPU or gaming console that fails after 2 or 3 years is definitely covered.

When will LTT create a channel on Odysee?
Dredgy replied to lttisawesomebro's topic in General Discussion
They had a Dailymotion. Not sure if they still do. -
That’s not really a mistake, it has no relevance to the video. It’s just personal notes.

ITX Motherboard RAM limit question.
Dredgy replied to Tom_W's topic in CPUs, Motherboards, and Memory
Will depend on CPU and chipset support. I have 64GB RAM (2x 32GB sticks) on a Ryszen 3950x on an Asrock ITX Board. -
Is ASrock a quality brand such as ASUS or MSI?
Dredgy replied to Mattaeus's topic in CPUs, Motherboards, and Memory
Yes, they literally used to be part of Asus. They’re also very good for any niche motherboards. ( e.g mini itx AMD socket with thunderbolt). -
No shopify is a piece of software that allows you to make your own shopping websites. Linus does not use a teespring or threadles, Linus Media Group has a divisions called “Creator Warehouse” who design their own clothes and have them manufactured to their specs. Eventually they will start manufacturing garments as well, and make merchandise for other people.
