Thread for Linus Tech Tips Video Suggestions

[OrkaXL]

Perhaps a revisit of the ARC GPU's, I've heard that the drivers have received massive updates.

[Theweedwarf]

Don’t know if it’s been suggested already. But I would love to know the practical limits of thunderbolt 4. Personally I want to know if you can run a Valve Index over a thunderbolt 4 hub. So think of it like “Stealth VR setup part 2”. Or if the fiber usb hubs that Linus use would work instead.

DYI Hardware based AI-Powered Searchable Video Archive?
- Video idea on taking an old machine, ie for server, and creating for the family.


Current option is using a cloud-based AI solution like Google Cloud Video Intelligence or Amazon Rekognition to construct an AI-powered searchable video archive. These services offer pre-trained AI models for analyzing and indexing movies for object detection, scene classification, and text detection.

To use a cloud-based AI service to create an AI-powered searchable video library, you must first upload your films to the AI provider's cloud storage service. After you've uploaded your movies, you'll need to send them to the AI service for analysis.

The AI service will then analyze your movies and provide a set of metadata for each video, including information about the items, scenes, and people in the video.

Potentially we may be able to process tags and pull into sever and locally host.
Issues might be using a consistent file format for your videos, transcribing your videos (for text searchable), organize your videos into folders, consistent naming convention.

credit for the idea, or reducing the cost and getting more challenging for LTT, a came across this google post

After the leak in the the home server rack for linus. I think LTT should design with Alex a "single point of failure" system for his rack. Where the system can at every rack level have a point of overflow of the water to a redirect system so as to not effect the rest of the racks

With the re release of SteamOS, how well wold it run on a full desktop or different mobile small form factor PCs such as ayaneo etc...

Hey. I just saw a youtube short about a projector that makes some bold claims. With the occasional projector content that you guys do this might be up your alley for maybe a projector edition of s*%# manufactures say. Looks like it is an XGIMI Horizon Ultra. If nothing else it might be interesting for the next projector video. 
 

here is the product link after a quick google search.

Here is the link for the short.

I have just see something from Microsoft about Project Silica where they have fitted 7TB onto a glass block. Never seen the technology and maybe you could expand and explain this new medium.

with the recent "weird AliExpress stuff" videos, maybe a video on a weird laptop like this one i stumbled across could be interesting

[Killerseadod]

the secret shoppers go from just using e-commerce to in-store experience, trying to buy a gaming computer from staff at like a Best Buy, or even a Staples, London drugs. Any of those places that people might just go to or grandparents might go to, to see the experience and see if they try and upsell for no reason.

Good evening, 

 

Regardless of whether or not this is interesting to the people reviewing this thread, it was interesting to me, and I feel it may be interesting to others in the thread, especially those who enjoyed the videos discussing LaserDisc and other older media. 

I like podcasts, like RadioLab, The Sporkful, etc. RadioLab did an episode called "Mixtape: Cassetternet" in their series called "How The Cassette Tape Helped Create the Internet". Essentially it's about about how Simon Goodwin used radio to transmit data in what sounds very similar to dial-up tones, where people could record the beeps transmitted onto cassettes, pop it into a computer, like the RCA COSMAC which used Cassettes for data storage, and find the recorded data was a program or file, essentially creating a Cassette Internet, or Cassetternet.

 

Not much is actually online about this, or not much that I could find, I believe Goodwin is the author of "Beep to Boom", but despite it not being huge it's incredibly interesting. Imagine your local radio station transmits a series of 0's and 1's for you to record onto a cassette, you pop it into your computer, and boom you've got "DOOM Eternal". (Figuratively).  

 

Even if this doesn't make it very far, it's at least worth a listen, as it's VERY interesting.

With the announcement of the 7995WX, you guys should revisit X gamers, 1 CPU and see just how many gaming rigs you could run off it at once

[Thashiznit2003]

There’s no such thing as a fully automatic Ethernet cable “making” machine.  I’m talking about a pre-made, in a bag, 6ft or something, ready to use, Ethernet cable that you would find for sale at a store. There’s always humans either arranging the wires in the rj45, pushing the rj45 in a machine, or cutting the wires. I’m not sure why this is true other than making an Ethernet cable is complicated, which would logically make it prime for being taken over by machines. But it isn’t. 
 

I’d like to see a video proving me wrong.

[I Have Been Watching]

After watching the first two parts of the Secret Shopper videos, I would love to see a video where you "Buy" parts from a different country.

 

You wouldn't have to buy the parts, but make a list and see the differences in cost.

If you wanted to, you could get a few people involved and randomly pick a country and battle to see who has the best/cheapest computer.

More networking & server updates! Love that content 

[SomeRandoGuySaidRonaldoS0]

Like the Dell XPS or Sceptre, North Americans have been piqued by this chinese laptop for its striking looks and luxury. And after its ban, people have been looking for ways to import them, even used models! Seeing that no popular youtuber has ever done a professional review into these laptops, LTT should do one. They have imported many laptops including some hyundai laptop and see if its really worth our time. If you assume that they are ripoff macbooks, their newer design has come a long way and has evolved into its own incarnation.

 

Cheers

[BrandonLatzig]

Well, the only issue I would see here is that
well like you said.
We cant get them. So a review, outside of novelty sake, is pointless

MMMMM Spyware 

[david115599]

An LTT Labs video comparing the battery life of different configurations of Framework Laptops:
For Example - M.2 Drive Capacity, Amount for RAM, 8,16,32,64GB, Different expansion modules, Different Motherboards, etc.

Specifically the Ram I think would be very interesting. (Definitely not suggesting this because I need more RAM but am scared about battery life because mine is not great as is. Considering 32->64 GB)

Anyone ever watercooled a keyboard and mouse?

If linus will Watercool a keyboard or a mouse then I will also like him to try custom building a watercooled monitor, maybe all in one video or separate videos.

I know there's a video already a video from 2016 with the Origin Omni (All in One computer in a monitor which is also watercooled), but it was origin's concept, so making a watercooled monitor probably isn't a great idea but at least it will be cold.

Using Liquid nitrogen to cryogenically treat the metals in a CPU (NOT FOR COOLING, JUST A ONCE OFF TREATMENT). It can apparently increase thermal and electrical conductivity in metals, so why not for the metals inside a CPU? It could maybe give more headroom for something like undervolting or maybe even overclocking. Could it make a difference in the temprature? Will it make a difference or is it risky, (edit:) can it be done from home? May work best with a soldered CPU dye I'm guessing. Really curious about it. Thanks

Hi all,

I've recently found out why the audio in my games always seems so skewed - I'm losing hearing in my left ear! My left ear is operating at about 50% efficiency when compared to my right, and it seems to be declining. Now I know why I can never get a proper bead on those footsteps!

I've been looking around for some ways to solve this particular problem, thought you might make a decent video and review some products to help me, and plenty of others I'm sure.

1. Software to boost the audio in one ear so that I could fine tune what I'd need to have equal sound in each ear. 

Or.

2. Bone conduction headphones. Bypass the eardrum completely and go with bone conduction. Problem is, I have zero experience with these headphones, they seem to be mostly geared towards sports like running, so that you can be more away of your surroundings. Would they even work for gaming? And would they be good enough for fast paced competitive gaming?

It has to be said, I'm on a budget here, I can't be spending several hundred on this! I currently use Logitech G Pro Xs and thought they were pretty decent for the £100 I paid for them.

I sincerely hope to hear/see a video on this. It'll help me out loads.

Thanks

Alex

All they would be doing is importing tech almost no one would use and Huawei is pretty much owned by the ccp and will be full of spyware and back doors.

Same goes for their phones and the brand Oppo is the same although I have seen LTT videos on oppo although some places sell them still.
