  1. It would be very nice to have a written version of this video. This was a very nice compilation of quite a lot of useful advice.
  2. WTF India? You are supposed to be the biggest democracy in the world, not the second biggest totalitarian regime.
  3. I don't understand, if it has coreboot, why couldn't you boot into Linux for comparison? The video went over this part very quickly, so I didn't really understand. From searching, it seems that crostini is just a virtualization layer that allows some *nix container to interact with the hardware. Since chrome os uses Linux kernel, accessing hw shouldn't be difficult, so why use crostini, why not just boot into Linux? (I don't know much about chromebooks, I just want to know).
  4. Wow, what an episode, the 3 top stories and I've missed all off them and all off them really bad news. Kinda glad I found out on weekend, time for some angry news reading, thank you for the sources .
  5. Thanks, it's really nice to see a reaction directly from a producer and even with a full explanation, now it makes a perfect sense and thanks for caring about quality of the content. News agencies could learn a lot from you. While it's nice to have review for cameras in the $100-600USD range, these videos are useful as well. First of all, there are some pretty loaded people who will buy it just because they like the texture of the grip or whatever, then there are semi-pro photographers who are maybe not so much into the scene, but they've found success within their niche and need to upgrade fast. Many of us are employed at companies with marketing departments, documentation departments etc., those will have a camera like this and incidentally, they probably wouldn't have even bought lenses for it or made sure their glass is compatible, so it's nice to be at least a little familiar with the camera, if you are going to borrow it. And lastly, these do go down in price on a second hand market, so they'd eventually be in a price range of non-photographers.
  6. Ah I see, that is likely it. It would be great if LTT informed on these situations, but it's great that there is a attentive community and a place to discuss this, thanks .
  7. I've wanted to go back to a nice review of Nikon Z9 from Brandon, but it has been switched to private. It was not all that positive, but seemed fair and had a lot of information, what has happened to it? Why was it pulled? It was a breath of fresh air to actually hear some constructive criticism in a review, it's really helpful to know about things that might not work well in a class of device, so that you know what to look out for.
  8. There was a sponsor that offered hosted VMs, pretty much like linode, but cheaper. I thing they had 2GB RAM + 40GB storage for less than linode basic tear. Which company was that?
  9. Darn, going from an OK title "This Cheap CPU is REALLY Expensive!" to a really silly one "How is this even possible?". That's the opposite of the promised switch to more sensible titles one the video has it's initial surge. I wanted to watch it and wouldn't have found it, if forum didn't keep the better title.
  10. I love that you are doing factory tours again. I realize that this might have been a limitation imposed upon you, but the structure if the video didn't really take advantage of the fact that you were on location. You were in one spot, talked a bit, then cut to another place. It didn't literary take us through the process and you didn't point things out, just talked about them. If that wasn't a choice of direction, but requirement from the company, please disregard this feedback .
  11. Thank you for the additional information, this does make it better. I whish they'd put it in the description, annotation, OP of this thread, anywhere. I just don't know how to discern the entertainment content from the informative content, the high effort from the improv ones. There are some extremely informative and educational videos from LTT that I have learn a ton from, just as there are some videos that are so interesting and you just see the days and weeks that went into them, but then there are some barely scripted that stretch a 2minute idea into 12 minute almost reminding me of a video blog, but with a high production values. I'm looking forward to the full review, the big-little architecture is quite intriguing.
  12. I have watched a video where you have proclaimed your commitment to in depth reviews, building new facilities, expert hardware analysis and then I watch this video, that I have at first missed because of the non-descriptive title and instead of providing useful information, you've compared the new CPUs on a yet unrefined OS with low adoption rate and wildly inconsistent performance and used different RAM with wildly different clock rates. Sure, it produces interesting number and makes for an entertaining narrative, but if you are an entertainment channel, just say so, don't make statements about you journalistic commitment, taking the flag from traditional tech media. If you were after informative content, why couldn't you also use the same DDR4 in the 12th gen chips for at least few tests? Why couldn't you run at least a few test on W10, 2k19, Debian and RHEL? All of them much more mature platforms. That would have been genuinely informative content. Why should anyone trust that you will surpass the tech press with state of the art facilities and commitment when here, you could have made an informative content with no additional HW requirements, just additional effort and man-hours and you chose not to?
  13. I love that you still include detailed sources. When WAN show stopped including them, it kind of killed it for me. Also, why is Riley always on the green-screen set?
  14. This is one of the coolest videos you have done and I almost didn't click it because of the terrible title. Fortunately, it popped up in search results. I mean, you even went back to the video, according to metadata, you came back and added subtitles (which is great, it makes the video easily searchable), why not add at least "PTP" or "precise synchrnonization" to the title? Ahmad and Alex, as well as the rest of the team, had made a great job explaining this, I've learned a lot and am glad to have found the video, but many more wont. I assume there is some reason why you don't just prepare more descriptive title and set like a 3 day reminder to change it, once the views have already spiked, I just can't fathom what it could be.
  15. I think that this video has been out for long enough, that you could put the name of the laptop and more importantly, the company, in the title. I really thing they need to put their name out there, so having it right in the title would be very helpful and would be a great help when navigating the search results.
