I honestly don’t even know how to react to this. It’s like getting Ozzy to play your venue and then asking him to do a Rendition of Twinkle Twinkle Little Star instead of Crazy Train. Sure, it’s still Ozzy and still cool as hell, but wow… what a missed opportunity. Stuff They could’ve talked about XOR done: A quick history of Linux for everyone who wasn’t around back then — which is a big chunk of LMG’s audience. Some kind of dive into just how much work actually goes into building your own OS kernel. Why didn’t we compile/install/run the kernel from source with the man himself? It doesn’t even take long — like 30 seconds on a Threadripper. Kernel-trench horror stories, vendor drama, all the fun behind-the-scenes interactions with vendors we don't get to hear about there obviously wasn’t enough prep. That part was pretty clear. even from a the cheap seats

let me get this strait you have one of the giants of modern computing on your channel and your primary video was building a workstation ? what the actual fuck do you know how fking hard it is to get torvalds on camera ? get out of your own way linus LMG needs to get out of its comfort zone

this wasn't even hard, I showed this to my 70 year old mother and she could tell

the audio sync is terrible thats more of a give away then the uncanny ultra-smooth deepfake

after watching wanshow MEH thats my take MEH and if my take is MEH then everybody else's take is going to be EH this feels like valve dipping their toes in the water, there gonna get there toes nibbled off and then they won't ever go near the water ever again this is genuinely upsetting because I know the people at valve could have taken a much bigger swing at the hardware everybody's tv is 4k most are 4k60 if not 4K120 and this thing is 4 year old laptop SOC in a box, you are already hamstringing the game libary because steamOS is NOT a replacement for Windows gaming (yet) and No HDCP 2.1 is going to kill it as a media consumption box this needs to go back in the boiler room at valve and cook a bit more or there needs to be a Pro version later with much better hardware if this launches anything north of 499 it will 100% be doa, the people that know what this thing is will laugh valve out of the room because of the weak asf hardware, the people that don't know what it is will buy a PS5 / XBOX X especially without HDCP and hdmi 2.1 this is hardware engineer trying to build something they don't have budget for and valve not being willing to subsidise the hardware. it seems valve hasn't learned that taking a hit on hardware is how the console game is played because thats the only way you can sell enough hardware to people because consoles exist because they are CHEAP compared to a fully built desktop and if you can't fulfil the role of a fully bilt desktop you best not be priced like one

I don't know price is going to be the biggest factor but honestly this new steam machine suffers from the same issue as the last its underpowered and will underperform I was expected a knockout given the magic they worked on the deck but laptop soc in a box has been DONE TO DEATH, not going with unified memory is going to kneecap the performance of this device and I thought we had already concluded that 8GB of vram isn't enough hopefully valve realises this and at least finds a way to solder anouther 2 or 4gb of vram to this

I am sorry but this entire write up on: https://drewdevault.com/2023/09/17/Hyprland-toxicity.html has a couple of issues 1. its from 2023 so why are we digging this up now? :because somebody has a axe to grind 2. code != the people the wrote the code you can not like the people all you like that doesn't automatically mean you need to dislike the product christ if that was the case there would be no apple or google 3. for somebody that claims to dislike that community so much they sure put a lot of effort into being a part of it so they can take screenshots so they can beat there particular drum this is nonsense sudo-political flaming/baiting and has no place here at LMG forums or Frameworks own board sheesh go outside touch grass perhaps find REAL AXE to grind and go chop some firewood for that little old lady down the street and do some actual good rather than rage bait posting online Naming and shaming and finger pointing cancel culture. is just as bad as hate speech and intolerance in fact the two are often closely related which each Opposing side trying to one up the other to convince people that they are the root of all evil and should be burned at the proverbial steak. I think some people would do well to remember that

can LMG afford to buy this thing spend years on it and have it not make a dime if so, send it if not tap the breaks there bucko

I think it was ultimately a mistake for LMG to not go all in on a car channel, cars especially racecars' have lots of cool tech. they could have collab with Holly or fueltec or haltec on a ecu deep dive and EVs you are talking about a data-center on wheels, there is thousands of other car-centric creators that I think linus and crew would genuinely have a great time with (derek bieri, mike finnigan,cleetus mcfarland chrisfix) the list goes on at the monument car content is more desirable than a unredacted copy of the epstein files 'computer' tech such as phone laptops and desktops has seemly mostly waned in interest we have plateaued in terms of that is basically doesn't matter what you buy because any old thing will do how many times do I want to rewatch "worlds largest tv, or linus builds a server in his house incorrectly again..." I think there is a bit of a bias at lmg when it comes to videos about topics they don't understand or 'care' about ... which is understandable but to me the house project sounds idiotic if you ask me you are gonna spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to make videos about stuff you already make videos about ... probly recover a bunch of done to death topics like home servers smart home automation ect ? seems redundant and a waste of money I think Linus is stuck chasing a dying sector of tech. stuck doing the same thing over and over ... (definition of what again) when what they should be doing is exploring new tech frontiers divesting and expanding LMG beyond just Technology content go big or go home. LMG needs a shot in the arm new venues seem like a good option but thats just my 2cents

at this point the issue has gone ignored for 2 years id take ANY traffic even if its a passing mention we have shouted from the mountain tops to deaf ears comment on the issue in the tracker ANYTHING to help raise awareness to wake the leviathan

In the past few years (at least since 2022), there have been numerous cases of Pixel 6/6A/7/7a/8/8a devices becoming hard-bricked. This can happen either due to user error or a firmware bug. When both slots are deemed unbootable, the device may fall back to a form of emergency download mode (as discussed on XDA and Google’s issue tracker): XDA Thread: Guide to unbrick Pixel 6 / Pixel 6 Pro https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/402455330 In this state, the phone usually appears to be completely dead: a black screen with no response when connected to a PC—except for a brief moment after plugging it in. however, if you hold the power button, it will appear as “Pixel ROM Recovery” or show up as a generic “COM” port. The fix exists—but Google doesn’t provide it. The solution is to flash signed recovery images that can load the bootloader over USB, allowing fastboot to be reinitialized and the device to be reflashed with Google’s factory images. Unfortunately, the publicly available recovery images don’t work in Emergency Download Mode because they’re not built to load over USB-serial. These special images do exist—some have been leaked, and users have successfully recovered bricked devices with them. The critical point is that the “BL1” file used in recovery is almost identical to the standard one, except for a single bit in the header that tells the platform it can boot over USB-serial. It does not allow unlocking the bootloader, changing the ARB (Anti-Rollback) index, accessing the trusted zone, or carrier-unlocking the phone—it only enables booting signed images over USB-serial for recovery. There has been work in semi-public Telegram groups using these leaked files, but it would be far easier, safer, and more transparent if Google released them officially. My request: If there’s ever a slow WAN Show, can we get a public callout to Google asking why they haven’t released these recovery files or, at the very least, provided a mail-in option so affected devices can be restored? The recovery process takes about five minutes once the correct files are available. Without them, these phones are simply turned into e-waste. Note: There is a Telegram group where people are working on this, but I won’t link it here to avoid spam (“Can we unbrick my device yet?”). LTT staff—DM me if you’d like an invite to speak directly with the people involved.

it looks like bigscreen has released the big screen beyond 2 with finally adjustable IPD https://store.bigscreenvr.com/products/bigscreen-beyond-2 where the reviews at nobody talking about this thing

credit where its due you got steves deflection down pat

I am from ny and this is bull shit.

pretty much as expected 30% performance uplift in titles that use rt/ai nothing burger anywhere else and that is perfectly fine. times are a changin I have said this before there is good reason for nvidia to be all-in on ray tracing/ai 1. there is realistic limits to what you can do using traditional lighting methods making it look good is possible but very time consuming 2. there is No reason to make a faster-raster card the hardware has been 'enough' for some time 3. making faster-raster hardware is expensive in terms of silicon used and most importantly power, lighting and shading is the most computationally expensive part of rendering a 3d scene, we have had hardware that has been more then fast enough to satisfy any need for raw pixel fill that you could want ray tracing is hear to stay the age of raster-lite GI light maps and shader tricks is coming to a close the king is dead, long live the king
