I love the "I'd mount that" and "Holy Balls" xD Think I'll do a bit of shopping during the week :) Also that's really cool how buying a humble bundle can contribute to Linustechtips.

 

@LinusTech Do you sell that hoodie that says sleep is for pussies I've seen you wear in a couple of the videos? I REALLY want one!

I really wish CableMods had an option for me to just buy the connectors for my PSU cables (EVGA Supernova 1000w P2).

 

I hate to have to order a set just so I can make my own custom set (Cablemods doesn't have the sleeving I am looking to use). Oh well. At least their kits work, unlike the actual cables that came with the PSU itself (weird, I know)

On latest video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h4-fq8ksZls

there is a link on tunnel bear :

 

"Try Tunnelbear for free at https://www.tunnelbear.com/LTT and save 10%"

who sent you at https://www.tunnelbear.com/b/linus/?utm_source=Podcast_LTT&utm_medium=youtube&utm_campaign=linus-media

 

Pricing on public tunnel bear page is '$59.88 for 12 months'

Pricing on /LTT page is '$59.88 Billed Annually' for 'Personal' option.

 

Seems 10 virtual percent to me.

I wanted to use the code(LTT20) for Cablemod. But doesn't work. Not on the global store or EU store. Cablemod told me the code can't be used for the EU store.  That is really annoying. Will there ever be a code that could be used for EU stores as well?

Guys PLEASE stop supporting Synergy!

 

I've been a supporter of the, from day one, before they were synergy, and lately they've dropped the ball badly.

 

The app hasn't worked in macOS for the last 3 months and I've been arguing back and forth with them hoping to get a solution, even the latest release hasn't worked and keeps crashing yet they refuse to fix the bugs causing the problems with the app.

 

It's quite unfair that LTT supports a company that refuses to fix their product.

Allow me to rephrase:

 

I've been requesting for the last THREE months to have a fix on the macOS version of Synergy, which has NOT worked since the recent macOS updates. Despite that I've been trying to give them crash logs and other useful information so they can fix it, they have not issued any fix in the last 3 months ever since the bug has been reported, and I'm not the only one dealing with this mess.

 

If you go to their forums you'll see LOTS of macOS users complaining for the same thing, and considering I paid for the software using the LTT link, it's unacceptable that Synergy isn't issuing a hotfix or at least a statement indicating they'd fix the software somehow.

 

It's been a LONG time and they should've fixed it by now, don't you think?

See both edits at bottom. TLDR: They more than made up for it.

 

--------------------

 

So....dbrand...

 

Over the last couple of years, I have placed 3 orders with dbrand. You guys, and others, push them so much that I'm always hopeful they will get better. Their products are great, but their service is, well, not.

 

First order actually arrived in a timely manner and was good. Great.

 

Second order never arrived. This was before they started using tracking. After 2+ weeks they finally agreed to reship. Second shipment arrived more than a week later and was wrong. Not only was it completely missing items, but it had skins for devices I've never even owned and certainly did not order. Third shipment was, finally, right and was shipped with tracking and actually arrived...mere days before Christmas for my November order.

 

Third order, placed just over 2 weeks ago, arrived last Wednesday and was wrong. I ordered 2 back skins for my Pixel XL. I received only one and it wasn't either of the ones I'd ordered. I, again, contacted dbrand. In doing so, I asked them to change one of the skins in my order to a different pattern. I got a reply 2 days later saying they would reship with changes.

 

That shipment has not yet been sent and they haven't replied to a follow-up email I sent asking when it would be.

 

-----------------------------

 

Edit: Since posting this I have received both tracking information for the replacement shipment and a full refund for the order, which I never even requested.

 

Took them a little while longer than I'd have liked, but props to dbrand for making it right.

 

Edit 2: The replacement shipment arrived. Not only was it correct, but it was doubled. I received 2 of each skin rather than the one of each that I had ordered. That is in addition to the full refund and the initial, incorrect skin they sent which has been protecting my device in the meantime. They may have messed up initially, but went above and beyond to correct it. Their CS has improved significantly since my issues with them in late 2015.

 

Thanks dbrand for stepping up. I'll be looking to order a Grip bumper probably next week!

Will look into adding Amazon links for other regions. It never really occurred to me.

I do appreciate having this option to add to my lists in Amazon... just figured i'd mention that.

 

On a somewhat similar note... I also think it would be cool to have the option on your apparel of having a Print of 'Bro Fist' - for example - on the back of a  sweatshirt and 'LinusTechTips' on the front with either centered or just small over the chest area type design... Having something in the front and back of a shirt might cost more even, but I think that would be cool. If you had an option like that i'd spend the $50 np or more if it was possible! Or if you're willing to make me one like that i'll throw you the money! That would be even cooler xD

11/6/2017:  I'm  currently experiencing issues with Dollar Shave Club. It appears that they have moved or removed the link to cancel/pause a subscription. I thought by my box saying it was empty I wouldn't be shipped or charged for something. I was wrong. getting four more blades that I definitively don't need. I will edit this post when/if they respond to my account issues.

 

Update on 11/8/2017: Life has been crazy so I haven't had a chance to update this. The issue was resolved roughly 7 hours after I contacted them. Impressive response time for a company of that size in my opinion.

Update as promised

You might check out Honest Answers Episode 2. I believe they cover that.

United States - Canada - United Kingdom -  Germany -  Spain -  France 

 

Amazon.com is the online super store. From computer components to mayo.

 

Amazon.com has an excellent affiliate program. If you live in any of the above countries and you want to buy something, click the link and shop away! Anything you buy during your shopping session will give Linus Tech Tips a commission!

I'm trying to figure out how everyone missed this.....

Isn't telling people how to earn you commission what caused you to get in trouble with Amazon the first time? O.o

The problem was that Amazon caught them telling the audience to bookmark affiliate links. They're allowed to display them or give them but they can't tell people to bookmark them.

Judge a product on its own merits AND the company that made it.
