Emma's merch message is one of WAN show's Top 10 Moments of the year & it was all neating wrapped up with Dan excitedly shouting "I get to watch" when she insinuating Linus get's to 'enjoy Luke' on their Anniversary. I've never laughed so hard, Dan's precious and we love him
@@gagnarorkhe'll still do because of that. that(infact all) written warrenty have enough loopholes that they don't actually HAD to do anything from a legal pov, everything they are doing is for customer satisfaction and retention.
@adarshsingh87 actually if they didn't do anything like you say it would open them to a wack ton of liability, potentially fines and even loss of license. This isn't India, there are laws in Canada. Mohdi no control here
@@gagnarork most of the terms used like the customary life and normal use/abuse is decided by them and most of the customers aren't canadians so legally speaking, fixing it is higher cost than the potential liability (excluding(probably including) the customer trust loss)
I'm sure glad intel explained AMD's naming scheme in a quick and easy to digest way, I wonder when AMD will do us a solid and explain Intel's naming scheme for everybody.
@@bawilson999 You must be young. What's so hard about "Pentium x y MHz"? XD And then it was AMD who came up with their "ratings" based on their very own previous line, but everyone kept telling the lie those were to better compare to Intel's CPUs, including Linus, BTW. And then it only got worse, but it's never even remotely as bad as it's been with GPUs for a long time already.
Watching Luke & Emma go over the details of their date was as entertaining as watching a date recap go wrong on old school episodes of "Love Connection!" 😀
Bet there are lots of similar stories out there. I had about 50 at one point but similarly lost them over time before they were really worth anything. If you think it's a loss then its the same as with any car or collectable.. if you just parked it or never opened it, it would be worth xxx times what you paid once they become rare enough that demand pushes up the price(just like bitcoin did with the difficulty increases) But very few people do that. It was a disposable item (virtual item at that). Dont sweat what could have been.
Why not split the backpack into two SKUs, one $25 discounted backpack very clearly marked as single-layer, and one full-price backpack replacing the existing one with both layers? I'm sure there are people that would still buy the single-layer seeing how beat up the mining pack was and how well it was still holding together. At least then you could recoup some of the cost for trade-ins and shipping.
@@VincentGroenewoldvincent die honderd dat jij wilt bijhouden is waarschijnlijk hun maximale marge. Sorry makker, maar bedrijven moeten ook winst opbrengen :)
That is likely what they will be doing for the remaining stock of single layer backpacks they have. They are giving 25$ credits to everyone who bought the single layer one, so it's wise to just subtract that amount in new sales.
They have to be careful not to cannibalise their own sales. I've never had a bag fail the way the double lining will protect against, so if 90% of people go for the discounted one, then there is a huge loss of potential income. It depends how much the actual product costs to make (in this case you can ignore R&D cost as they are the same on both versions).
When they have started talking about the backpack issue, I thought: there's no way they're gonna offer a refund to everyone, the costs, the overhead, the shipping... LTT: Casually offers a refund for everyone who bought the backpack
@@HEXiT_ The thing is unless you're buying in Canada, their laws don't really apply. If I'm in the EU I'm entitled to a 3-year warranty on all goods purchased from a business, new and used. If I had ordered the backpack from the EU none of it applies. Sure the Canadian law probably would apply for EU citizens and it's unfeasible to go after LTT legally.
Man, I had no idea how exciting wan show was last week, linus cutting open the bag discovering a mistake that cost over a million dollars! That was some high stakes bag autopsy 😂
To be honest, this is a lot more than I expected. Not because I didn't think you guys would make it right, but it's a huge financial commitment. We'll done Linus and LTT for making this more than right for everyone.
That was my exact thought. I was only sort of aware of this, i didn't know what all the numbers meant though, but them making it so damn clear is going to make it hilarious any time someone asks me which AMD CPU to buy, and I end up pointing them to an intel slideshow about why they shouldn't buy an AMD CPU, tell them it's bullshit, and just follow the helpful guide they made for you of which ones are the newest and thus the fastest, and buy those if you can, otherwise get the best you can afford. Simple right? Thank you Intel!
@@TheOriginalFaxonYou let your hatred for Intel distract you from the fact that both of their naming schemes are as bad as the other which was Linus' point. Loser behaviour.
@@Duaality. I did not, AMD has an inordinate lead over Intel in the mobile sector (which is what that segment was about), there is no world in which I would recommend an Intel CPU to any of my family or friends in that sector, therefore I can disregard it wholesale as it's simply a waste of my time to help educate them about it. I was not distracted by hatred of intel, but by the fact that AMD's battery life and power draw numbers are superior at most given performance points, and they get better the higher in performance you go, relative to intel's. I don't even hate intel at all, what I hate is pompous holier than thou marketing when both sides are in the thick of it, but at least AMD isn't doing dumb bullshit like this. It's enough to get me to not consider intel on principle if that were my only deciding factor, and yes AMD has done some of the same things, but not nearly as egregiously, and they've at least been pushing performance numbers up consistently, I sat on my 4790k for far too long without any viable upgrade options (i consider any CPU that's less than 15-20% faster to be a nonviable upgrade for a personal PC, and anything less than 30-40% to be a minimum viable upgrade), and then it died and I literally couldn't afford the equivalent CPU, and had to literally downgrade at the time or cut into funds I'd allocated for business investments instead. I don't have the time to explain to my own family all the details of why they should pick X over Y or vice versa. If someone makes a great video like this explaining it all, I'm gonna recommend it, even if it's from the competitor of the company whose products I'm actually recommending to them more generally.
From a business perspective, the backpack bottom issue is a major bummer... A good learning experience too. Is there any recourse with the supplier who made the unauthorised change, or does responsibility fall solely on LTT for not spotting it and refusing the backpacks at the outset? This feels like a situation where, if it weren't for being in different countries and not wanting to lose an otherwise preferred supplier, litigation could be the next step... But I suppose that wouldn't be practical.
It seems they have had a lot of issues with supplies making changes without notifying them. But if there's not any other options that meet their standards they might have to just ignore the issues and keep moving forward.
Man, I'm not shipping my bag back across the ocean over this. For my purposes it's definitely sturdy enough as is. Must be frustrating to know that your manufacturer can apparently just make changes (even in good faith) without telling you! I'd buy stuff from LTT more often if shipping wasn't so insane. The lid on my water bottle broke (because I dropped it) and I'm not going to get a new one, because that's €30. (To be clear: I understand that that's just what the costs are. I'm just stating that I don't want to buy a €30 water bottle lid)
Dan should absolutely read all merch messages like that haiku. Hell, get a nice and boomy SM7B for Dan with the EQ all the way to bass just to really pull out the producer voice
Two really funny things have unfolded since Grok launched: - Grok has been asked about "the woke mind virus" and just roasted the people using that moniker. - Grok has been caught saying "as our OpenAI directive says...", either failing to disclose to users that the chatbot is not actually developed by them or even suggesting they stole it from OpenAI.
I appreciate the transparency regarding the backpack, but sadly, I love my bag too much to let you have it back So I will happily put that $25 towards a bomber jacket or a noctua driver. I don't foresee myself ever wearing through the already tough layer and am super glad I bought it in the first place. Thanks LTT and teams for being so dedicated to making killer products and sticking by what you sell.
Also a good thing to do, give your toddlers and Young kids their own digital or disposable camera, and keep the pictures they take. As an adult I like going through the old stack of pictures I took of things as a kid.
Was already thinking this might be the most chaotic WAN show I’ve seen, and I’ve been watching a long time. Then they get Emma (Luke’s one) on the show. Love it! This may be the most fun show WAN show so far :) Also, great to see the team’s moral stance on the backpack. I knew it would be brilliantly handled, but this is above and beyond expectations
@@demacherius1 at least the price is clear right away. And i wouldn't pay duty on top of VAT and delivery and then VAT on top of that again, only to later get a refund of the original smaller VAT from LTT
@@demacherius1You will no longer have to deal with import tariffs and extra VAT, and shipping will be cheaper since you'll have bulk shipments of screwdrivers. You're not only potentially getting a cheaper product, but the delivery will be much more convenient.
Backpack Issue. For future production.. a save file with a spec sheet. Any changes can have a track record along with the sample changes. Theres many edit tools that can show edits for various things in documnts. Im surprised this isnt already a standard practice... Or if it is that there isnt some redundancy.
Huge props for supporting their brand. Extremely happy to see they well back the product and give options to the consumer. I understand mistakes or errors well happen, how they choose to handle it speaks "miles".
Impressed by the response. Quality assurance will *always* have holes so it’s imperative businesses also have a second rail of defense, in this case LMG’s reaction to realizing they messed up.
the fact that the backpack held up, even without the double layer is actually amazing yeah it was faulty, but held up against the worst of the worst of environments anyway
that's the whole point, the titanic rings a bell, its important to protect against unlikely and unforeseen circumstances with mission critical equipment.@
Linus: "I would have reservations about hiring anyone that types less than 100wpm as being able to type quickly is such an integral part of my work" Also Linus: *Sends 4 word emails*
Just rested mine for the first time in years... 40 WPM... 😳 I guess it's a good thing that typing isn't the most important part of me being able to perform my job. 😅
The process for decontaminating something for radioactive material exposure is one of two things: 1) Wipe it off, or 2) wait. So yeah, not really a particular property of your screwdriver.
We use race to describe people not out of racism but out of the usefulness of it, it is unchanging, easy to notice, and still massively varies. It is a learned behavior but that is because it is effective it is not out of racism.
Like I already said in the live chat: "ANY other company on the entire planet would have been staying COMPLETELY SILENT about it if it had happened to their product. Chapeau!"
They definitely are putting their money where Linus' mouth is 😅 I already did trust their stated policy, but quite impressive to be that proactive about making things right. That $1,000,000 figure [insert Dr. Evil here] doesn't even include employee time for handling all of this.
You guys touched it with the Xeon Scalable family but I feel like you missed a few things that make this even more hilarious. The Xeon Silver 4210 is a generation newer than the Xeon Silver 4110. The Xeon Silver 4310 also exists. Then you have your Xeon Gold 5000 and 6000 series. The first number does not dictate whether or not if the processor is the newest generation or not, which is what they are even calling out AMD for doing, where only the 2nd number of their product lineup says something about the generation, here it does too. And what the hell is the difference between Gold 5000 and 6000. I build servers with this as a job, and it isn't always very clear what is what, but let's call out AMD for doing EXACTLY WHAT WE DO.
LTT should get someone to do the timestamps live. (or just after the show) because if some random guy can do it LTT certainly has the resources to do it.
what ? you really expect a big corporation with 2 offices to spend *MONEY* to provide a basic costumer experience? Are you fucking crazy? There are good boy viewers that already do that for *FREE*!
Why pay somebody to do it when some rando in the community is willing to do it for you free? They never even take his timestamps and put them in the description. They literally post the VOD then ignore the video entirely.
The random guy who does it right now has a donation link with supporters, LTT could definitely pay that guy but if the community wants to pay him I guess that works too.
Microsoft bypassed Windows 9 because there was a bunch of old software that (because of how it was written) would see "Windows 9" and think it was Windows 95 or 98. So its a backwards compatibility thing.
Man I should really watch while the show is live because I completely missed the backpack news. But I'm fairly impressed with the quality of the bag, for something that isn't double layered, it's more durable than my steel toe boots. I just want new zipper pulls
@cablefeed3738 they've moved even more screwdrivers and and the big jackets have huge numbers as well. They really do make more off the clothing line, lol.
Saw one guy in the live chat say "Not enough bro" in regards to what Linus said about the backpack. How is either an extended warranty and $25 credit or a full no questions refund and return not good enough?
I’m sure people feel an emotional betrayal, but there’s little Linus can do about that since it’s the parasocial relationship that helps sell them in the first place and makes ‘betrayals’ feel so much deeper than they would with any other business.
Wen can just watch it in chunks, whenever we get to it 🤷 But I would like a split format as well. Like either putting in a deliberate cut and release the VOD on two days or stream two times a week 🙃
Intels marketing department taking it to the next level, giving their competition an example of how to market their product segments properly, such a power move!
@19:40 - Windows never had a 9 because of Windows 95 and Windows 98. There is a bunch of software out there that compares windows versions by the first part of the name of the product. So "Windows 9" was used to check for the version of 95 and 98. Having a Windows 9 that wasn't 95 and 98 would break a lot of old software. The crazy thing is the amount of legacy software written in the early to late 90s and early 00s that check for this that is mission critical. We would have a kind of Y2K problem if they had a Windows 9.
General question: What will the process be like for us who bought the backpack in one of the two pop-up events? I didn't remember leaving any contact info when we bought the stuff in the pop-up, and I never received anything from my email.
Have to say - this is Linus putting his money where his mouth is. I was one of those people who, while understanding his sentiment, did not appreciate an informal trust me bro guarantee. And this was the true test of that guarantee. This fix will cost Linus 6-7 figures and will probably eat into most of the profits of the first and second batch of the backpack run but it guarantees that the next time LTT sells an ultra expensive product people will truly trust them (as now there's precedent). Personal message for Linus: It's one thing to trust you as a content creator, you've had that trust for years. Today you earned my trust from as a consumer.
If he didnt do it... he'd get sued... which would cost more.... and have to deal with charge backs, where he ends up eating a processing fee, delivery costs, and the cost of the product gets charged back... because banks really dont like it when you sell their customer something with misleading advertising. So this is actually the LESS expensive option for him, because attempting to remedy the issue on his own terms minimizes cost. Where as hundreds, if not thousands of people have charge back process would just be a bank saying "Fuck you, pay me." This is saving him money....
@@adammiller9029 the backpack has been out for more than a year now and most banks limit chargebacks to within 30-60 days (max i've seen is 120 days). The vast majority of these aren't eligible for chargebacks. He wont get sued because he is already going beyond the warranty, which is to give a full refund no questions asked. He is going even further by also giving people the option to wear out the bottom and then email support to get a new backpack which could take years. This solution is so much better than just fulfilling the warranty so there's no way he's going to get sued because everyone can get their money back.
Similarly to Noctua, who will provide free support for basically anything of theirs. I had to "build" 2 pcs for friends (not actually build, just put the parts list together. One ended up assembling it themselves with grest strife, the other hired a dude for 50€ and do it for them) and in both cases I pushed for a noctua cooler just because of support. If anything goes wrong, they will either have replacement parts or a refund with little to no hassle. If they want to change platform, they will get sendt the appropriate brackets for free. If I had gotten any other cooler, probably cheaper or better performing, support would have either been on me or non-existent. Offering a good after sale support will sell your products in many occasions. At the same time, in both cases I put a ABSOLUTELY NO ASUS policy both for GPUs (added Gigabyte there) and motherboards because of the problems and especially because of the handling of said problems for the last 3 years by them. Not just limited to DIY pc, too: except for the last gen where everything seems to have gone ok, every rog phone and zenfone had a great risk of getting bricked by software updates or falling apart due to poor build quality, with warranties being denied all around. Fuck Asus for at least another 2 to 3 years.
Manufacturer should be picking up some of the cost of making the bags right, the designer should have asked someone before assuming it was an error and taking it upon themselves to make an unauthorized change.
Yup sending out thousands of emails can end up being blocked by your service. I found the best thing to do was to contact service and ask what's the max we can send without being affected. Then send out that many emails each day until all your recipients have had your newsletter emailed to them.
SDR content _can_ be pushed brighter, but I think the main reason displays are usually kneecapped with SDR content is because HDR expanded color values also apply to the luminance values of each individual color, which were set when it was color graded and mastered, same with SDR content. So technically the SDR content isn't being viewed as intended if you just push the brightness. I'm just guessing but it's not hard to imagine that some pieces of content will look worse if you simply push the brightness as it could reveal hidden problems that shouldnt be visible if it's being viewed as intended.
This is my thinking aswell. SDR content is specifically calibrated at 100 cd/m2 whereas HDR content is calibrated at a minimum of 400 cd/m2. I imagine the farther a monitor deviates from these values, the less technically color accurate the image will be.
Wouldn't this only be a concern if you're trying to use a display that is calibrated, though? Because most of us are probably never going to see a display (at home, anyway) that is calibrated for the same dynamics in luminance or color as the reference displays used for color grading the source material. I see this as something like "vibrant mode" on displays now. If you want your grass neon green, well... go nuts. Far be it from anyone else to tell you what you like is wrong. Same, I think, should be said for luminance scaling. The only downside I can see is this: HDR is all about dynamics, not actual brightness. SDR's range has always been compressed to give you as much sense of brightness as possible, without making it impossibly dark to watch in normal viewing conditions. HDR relieves you of having to make that compromise, as you can just keep going up when it's called for, and you're not losing visual fidelity when you don't need all that light. Ergo, if you use HDR scaling on SDR content, you might end up with material that is overly contrasted, and/or going overly bright too often. But, as long as you have contrast and brightness controls (of whatever kind), you should be able to limit that to something appropriate and pleasant. Now if only we could get back the dynamic range of AUDIO....
The fact AMD could respond with a statement simply saying "Re: Intel - LOL" and not need to justify or specify in any way is simultaneously hilarious and depressing.
If a streaming service never releases physical releases of a movie/show they made, and then it gets removed from the streaming service and is not available to watch or buy legally I think that morally (not legally though) absolves you of any wrongdoing by pirating it.
1:11:00 - It's equivalent to someone making a phone call having to pay for it, while the person receiving the phone call also has to pay for it. Or for the sender and the receiver of a text message having to pay for it. Sound familiar to anyone? It's also equivalent to the sender and recipient of mail and packages having to pay for it.
I’ve listened to the wan show for a long time. I don’t have anything to contribute to the commentary, so I haven’t. But today, I’d like to commend Linus’ recommendation to capture random moments of fatherhood or motherhood. Go daddies!!!!!!!
I ended up returning my LTT bag about month ago, was rather painless and they paid for my shipping back. I got a Milwaukee Toolbag for about half the price and is able to stand up on its own for as long as the bag exists.
I'm from the UK and the conversation on age gating spicy content has been CRAZY over here. They used that bill to pass a piece of legislation giving the government the power to at a later date force tech companies to put in back doors into messaging apps if requested by a government body. They haven't done it yet they've just given them the power to do so. Using BUT THINK OF THE CHILDREN to remove ALL privacy is truly the worst use of that argument I can think of. Especially given how tech illiterate the entirety of parliament is they don't realize OTHER people can use back doors so their own WhatsApp groups are GOING to be leaked IMMEDIATELY 😅😅. Gotta love it when the entire government is brought down for leaking by their own legislation
I'm definitely one of those people interested in the NAS software with zero fuckery... Even watching basic shit about homelabbing type stuff, just not what I want to spend my time fiddling with.
Relating to your "blue bubble" apple messaging conversation: I love it when people tell me that's why they have an IPhone. This way I know how superficial they really are and I can avoid that person in the future.
I also noticed that with last 2 or 3 drivers I have way more crashes with 7900XTX. What I have observed is that after most of them the integrated GPU in 7800X3D was showing an exclamation mark in device manager. Disabling it seems to reduce (or maybe even stop) the crashes. The latest driver, though definitely made things unstable with Hardware-Accelrated Graphics Scheduling, especially when resuming from sleep with Photoshop opened. Disabling it in Windows settings seems to fix this. I have shared whatever info I have through AMD's bug reporting tool after some of the crashes, so maybe they will be able to fix it at some point.
Just two months ago, I bought a Lenovo ThinkStation with dual Intel Xeon Platinum 8160 procesors (with a total of 48 cores, 96 threads) including Windows 11 before "eventually" coming to realize that an 8160 is known as "products formerly Skylake" which means Intel 6th Generation processor technology on 14 nm die. Wtf?

For a while from now I won't be able to timestamp on time, my 1st gen Ryzen has been struggling on and off with consistent BSODs & crashes, and I can't really go to a computer cafe at 5 AM. Will have to timestamp on my Note 8 for a while. Thanks for being patient again!
Side note: donations are in my channel's about page.
I LOVE YOU
Ayyy thank you very welcome back! You're awesome have a happy holidays!
Thank you Life saver
@LinusTechTips Help the man !!
Thank you
Emma's merch message is one of WAN show's Top 10 Moments of the year & it was all neating wrapped up with Dan excitedly shouting "I get to watch" when she insinuating Linus get's to 'enjoy Luke' on their Anniversary. I've never laughed so hard, Dan's precious and we love him
The backpack refund offer is crazy! Great to see that you guys actually value your customers, also a great way to build trust.
Imagine if he didn't have a written warranty and this came up.
and people are still saying its not enough int he live chat! wtf more are they expecting?
@@gagnarorkhe'll still do because of that. that(infact all) written warrenty have enough loopholes that they don't actually HAD to do anything from a legal pov, everything they are doing is for customer satisfaction and retention.
@adarshsingh87 actually if they didn't do anything like you say it would open them to a wack ton of liability, potentially fines and even loss of license. This isn't India, there are laws in Canada.
Mohdi no control here
@@gagnarork most of the terms used like the customary life and normal use/abuse is decided by them and most of the customers aren't canadians so legally speaking, fixing it is higher cost than the potential liability (excluding(probably including) the customer trust loss)
I'm sure glad intel explained AMD's naming scheme in a quick and easy to digest way, I wonder when AMD will do us a solid and explain Intel's naming scheme for everybody.
Intel's naming scheme is wayyyy worse than AMD's by a mile.
That's because AMD has just been using Intels old naming scheme at this point. So obviously Intel knew it well.
@@bawilson999 You must be young. What's so hard about "Pentium x y MHz"? XD
And then it was AMD who came up with their "ratings" based on their very own previous line, but everyone kept telling the lie those were to better compare to Intel's CPUs, including Linus, BTW. And then it only got worse, but it's never even remotely as bad as it's been with GPUs for a long time already.
@@CakePrincessCelestiawhat are you talking about.
@@bawilson999windows and ram company actually use GIb but nobody bother to change its namre but kept it Gb,
Watching Luke & Emma go over the details of their date was as entertaining as watching a date recap go wrong on old school episodes of "Love Connection!" 😀
Poor Dan, he could have been a millionaire, but instead he got to put up with Linus every day. Press F to pay respect 😢
Cue "Remy - Bitcoin Billionaire" 😅
F
Bet there are lots of similar stories out there. I had about 50 at one point but similarly lost them over time before they were really worth anything.
If you think it's a loss then its the same as with any car or collectable.. if you just parked it or never opened it, it would be worth xxx times what you paid once they become rare enough that demand pushes up the price(just like bitcoin did with the difficulty increases) But very few people do that.
It was a disposable item (virtual item at that). Dont sweat what could have been.
F
I'm kinda new to the tech space. Would any of you recommend starting to mine nowadays?
that fart was audible 56:02 lmao
Dan should put a little border around his webcam scene. Turn him into the magic mirror from snow white
Why not split the backpack into two SKUs, one $25 discounted backpack very clearly marked as single-layer, and one full-price backpack replacing the existing one with both layers? I'm sure there are people that would still buy the single-layer seeing how beat up the mining pack was and how well it was still holding together. At least then you could recoup some of the cost for trade-ins and shipping.
this
@@VincentGroenewoldvincent die honderd dat jij wilt bijhouden is waarschijnlijk hun maximale marge. Sorry makker, maar bedrijven moeten ook winst opbrengen :)
That is likely what they will be doing for the remaining stock of single layer backpacks they have. They are giving 25$ credits to everyone who bought the single layer one, so it's wise to just subtract that amount in new sales.
They have to be careful not to cannibalise their own sales. I've never had a bag fail the way the double lining will protect against, so if 90% of people go for the discounted one, then there is a huge loss of potential income. It depends how much the actual product costs to make (in this case you can ignore R&D cost as they are the same on both versions).
I'd just buy one of the 9nes that are sent back if they just refurb it a lil
When they have started talking about the backpack issue, I thought: there's no way they're gonna offer a refund to everyone, the costs, the overhead, the shipping...
LTT: Casually offers a refund for everyone who bought the backpack
can i buy a 2nd hand one
LTT and team continue to be inspiring to small business owners like us!
@@kayentatc1I second that😂
@@HEXiT_doesn’t have to offer the credit/voucher though
@@HEXiT_ The thing is unless you're buying in Canada, their laws don't really apply. If I'm in the EU I'm entitled to a 3-year warranty on all goods purchased from a business, new and used. If I had ordered the backpack from the EU none of it applies. Sure the Canadian law probably would apply for EU citizens and it's unfeasible to go after LTT legally.
Man, I had no idea how exciting wan show was last week, linus cutting open the bag discovering a mistake that cost over a million dollars!
That was some high stakes bag autopsy 😂
To be honest, this is a lot more than I expected. Not because I didn't think you guys would make it right, but it's a huge financial commitment. We'll done Linus and LTT for making this more than right for everyone.
Where's timestamp guy?
Are they feeling okay? I'm getting a little worried for them now.
Wherever you are, hope you're doing fine, timestamp guy.
Timestamp guy is here now. Apparently their PC is dying though.
Very entertaining WAN show tonight. Had a lot of fun listening and laughing.
Thanks intel for explaining amd's naming scheme so clearly. Makes helping me buy an amd cpu much easier than intel 😂😂😂
That was my exact thought. I was only sort of aware of this, i didn't know what all the numbers meant though, but them making it so damn clear is going to make it hilarious any time someone asks me which AMD CPU to buy, and I end up pointing them to an intel slideshow about why they shouldn't buy an AMD CPU, tell them it's bullshit, and just follow the helpful guide they made for you of which ones are the newest and thus the fastest, and buy those if you can, otherwise get the best you can afford. Simple right? Thank you Intel!
@@TheOriginalFaxonBuh, that was an old AMD slide.
Why not buying Intel Core Ultra 9 processor 14900K? It is perfectly clear :D
@@TheOriginalFaxonYou let your hatred for Intel distract you from the fact that both of their naming schemes are as bad as the other which was Linus' point. Loser behaviour.
@@Duaality. I did not, AMD has an inordinate lead over Intel in the mobile sector (which is what that segment was about), there is no world in which I would recommend an Intel CPU to any of my family or friends in that sector, therefore I can disregard it wholesale as it's simply a waste of my time to help educate them about it. I was not distracted by hatred of intel, but by the fact that AMD's battery life and power draw numbers are superior at most given performance points, and they get better the higher in performance you go, relative to intel's. I don't even hate intel at all, what I hate is pompous holier than thou marketing when both sides are in the thick of it, but at least AMD isn't doing dumb bullshit like this. It's enough to get me to not consider intel on principle if that were my only deciding factor, and yes AMD has done some of the same things, but not nearly as egregiously, and they've at least been pushing performance numbers up consistently, I sat on my 4790k for far too long without any viable upgrade options (i consider any CPU that's less than 15-20% faster to be a nonviable upgrade for a personal PC, and anything less than 30-40% to be a minimum viable upgrade), and then it died and I literally couldn't afford the equivalent CPU, and had to literally downgrade at the time or cut into funds I'd allocated for business investments instead. I don't have the time to explain to my own family all the details of why they should pick X over Y or vice versa. If someone makes a great video like this explaining it all, I'm gonna recommend it, even if it's from the competitor of the company whose products I'm actually recommending to them more generally.
The backpack solution is way beyond generous and I’m very grateful
Banging the desk is fine if Dan can apply a high pass filter at like 80hz to the mics signal chain 😎
Then my subwoofer will be happy lol

@@CrungySpungus I'll make it a kick drum ez
So funny enough, I have two of the LTT first shirts and I just found out that the 2nd one that randomly showed up was not a mistake
i'll wait for the great timestamp guy
From a business perspective, the backpack bottom issue is a major bummer... A good learning experience too. Is there any recourse with the supplier who made the unauthorised change, or does responsibility fall solely on LTT for not spotting it and refusing the backpacks at the outset? This feels like a situation where, if it weren't for being in different countries and not wanting to lose an otherwise preferred supplier, litigation could be the next step... But I suppose that wouldn't be practical.
It seems they have had a lot of issues with supplies making changes without notifying them. But if there's not any other options that meet their standards they might have to just ignore the issues and keep moving forward.
Man, I'm not shipping my bag back across the ocean over this. For my purposes it's definitely sturdy enough as is. Must be frustrating to know that your manufacturer can apparently just make changes (even in good faith) without telling you!
I'd buy stuff from LTT more often if shipping wasn't so insane. The lid on my water bottle broke (because I dropped it) and I'm not going to get a new one, because that's €30. (To be clear: I understand that that's just what the costs are. I'm just stating that I don't want to buy a €30 water bottle lid)
Dan should absolutely read all merch messages like that haiku. Hell, get a nice and boomy SM7B for Dan with the EQ all the way to bass just to really pull out the producer voice
Two really funny things have unfolded since Grok launched:
- Grok has been asked about "the woke mind virus" and just roasted the people using that moniker.
- Grok has been caught saying "as our OpenAI directive says...", either failing to disclose to users that the chatbot is not actually developed by them or even suggesting they stole it from OpenAI.
I appreciate the transparency regarding the backpack, but sadly, I love my bag too much to let you have it back So I will happily put that $25 towards a bomber jacket or a noctua driver. I don't foresee myself ever wearing through the already tough layer and am super glad I bought it in the first place. Thanks LTT and teams for being so dedicated to making killer products and sticking by what you sell.
Also a good thing to do, give your toddlers and Young kids their own digital or disposable camera, and keep the pictures they take. As an adult I like going through the old stack of pictures I took of things as a kid.
Was already thinking this might be the most chaotic WAN show I’ve seen, and I’ve been watching a long time. Then they get Emma (Luke’s one) on the show. Love it! This may be the most fun show WAN show so far :)
Also, great to see the team’s moral stance on the backpack. I knew it would be brilliantly handled, but this is above and beyond expectations
Thank you for trying to have the screwdriver available in the EU, please consider having the backpack also available for the region.
Or the rest of the stuff 😁
Exactly for so much money we have to pay not only VAT but also import duty... And it turns into a golden backpack
@@UbeogeshYou understand that we will still have to pay them right? They will be just included in the price of the product.
@@demacherius1 at least the price is clear right away. And i wouldn't pay duty on top of VAT and delivery and then VAT on top of that again, only to later get a refund of the original smaller VAT from LTT
@@demacherius1You will no longer have to deal with import tariffs and extra VAT, and shipping will be cheaper since you'll have bulk shipments of screwdrivers. You're not only potentially getting a cheaper product, but the delivery will be much more convenient.
Backpack Issue. For future production.. a save file with a spec sheet. Any changes can have a track record along with the sample changes. Theres many edit tools that can show edits for various things in documnts. Im surprised this isnt already a standard practice... Or if it is that there isnt some redundancy.
Congrats on getting engaged Luke! (Dan: Luke's fffff, partner) hahaha
Huge props for supporting their brand. Extremely happy to see they well back the product and give options to the consumer. I understand mistakes or errors well happen, how they choose to handle it speaks "miles".
Emma: "Enjoy Luke on our anniversary day"
Linus: (Winks)
Dan: "I GET TO WATCH!"
What is this even 😂
Honestly the banter between you 3 is great include dan more.
Someone shine the Time Stamp Signal (TSS) in the sky.

Well, timestamp guy is here now. So, enjoy.
Half the show is basically an LTT store/merch ad at this point.
".........and you and you......simultanius lovin' baby!!" crazy how the brain will go so fast to that song when saying "you and me"
Impressed by the response. Quality assurance will *always* have holes so it’s imperative businesses also have a second rail of defense, in this case LMG’s reaction to realizing they messed up.
the fact that the backpack held up, even without the double layer is actually amazing
yeah it was faulty, but held up against the worst of the worst of environments anyway
Points out how high quality the backpack is and how much thought and testing has gone into the product.
I mean they thought it was a mistake because it's overkill and not actually needed.
that's the whole point, the titanic rings a bell, its important to protect against unlikely and unforeseen circumstances with mission critical equipment.@
@@chutcentralok 🙂
I think faulty is a little harsh but definitely not to the advertised spec but still well made
Linus: "I would have reservations about hiring anyone that types less than 100wpm as being able to type quickly is such an integral part of my work"

The process for decontaminating something for radioactive material exposure is one of two things: 1) Wipe it off, or 2) wait. So yeah, not really a particular property of your screwdriver.

We use race to describe people not out of racism but out of the usefulness of it, it is unchanging, easy to notice, and still massively varies. It is a learned behavior but that is because it is effective it is not out of racism.
Gotta say I'm extremely impressed by how you handled the backpack mishap 26:30. I trust you bro.
Like I already said in the live chat: "ANY other company on the entire planet would have been staying COMPLETELY SILENT about it if it had happened to their product. Chapeau!"
Wasn't gonna send mine back either way-- love this thing-- but gotta say, I'm actually to proud to hold onto it now.
They definitely are putting their money where Linus' mouth is 😅 I already did trust their stated policy, but quite impressive to be that proactive about making things right. That $1,000,000 figure [insert Dr. Evil here] doesn't even include employee time for handling all of this.
Linus haters were complaining about every single mistake, now they have to call him "Full Refund Linus"
lol, I watched this live, I’ve now rewatched this 3 times going on 4. Break ups are rough and yall are helping. Thank you!
You guys touched it with the Xeon Scalable family but I feel like you missed a few things that make this even more hilarious. The Xeon Silver 4210 is a generation newer than the Xeon Silver 4110. The Xeon Silver 4310 also exists. Then you have your Xeon Gold 5000 and 6000 series. The first number does not dictate whether or not if the processor is the newest generation or not, which is what they are even calling out AMD for doing, where only the 2nd number of their product lineup says something about the generation, here it does too. And what the hell is the difference between Gold 5000 and 6000. I build servers with this as a job, and it isn't always very clear what is what, but let's call out AMD for doing EXACTLY WHAT WE DO.
"You're live on WAN Show"
"Yeah, just between you and me" *proceeds to discuss stuff that was not meant for the public*
Will LTT store have a refurbished section for used backpacks if enough are returned?
I got a tiny bezel and a headphone jack, Sony Xperia ftw. 5 & 10 delivering on smaller and battery life, this run.
LTT should get someone to do the timestamps live. (or just after the show) because if some random guy can do it LTT certainly has the resources to do it.
And it's not like staff aren't already watching it live.
The random guys on the internet who post the timestamps in the comments should form a union
what ? you really expect a big corporation with 2 offices to spend *MONEY* to provide a basic costumer experience? Are you fucking crazy?
There are good boy viewers that already do that for *FREE*!
Why pay somebody to do it when some rando in the community is willing to do it for you free? They never even take his timestamps and put them in the description. They literally post the VOD then ignore the video entirely.
The random guy who does it right now has a donation link with supporters, LTT could definitely pay that guy but if the community wants to pay him I guess that works too.
Microsoft bypassed Windows 9 because there was a bunch of old software that (because of how it was written) would see "Windows 9" and think it was Windows 95 or 98. So its a backwards compatibility thing.
The Pizza Hut High Five melts my heart, cute! Congrats you too!
Man I should really watch while the show is live because I completely missed the backpack news. But I'm fairly impressed with the quality of the bag, for something that isn't double layered, it's more durable than my steel toe boots. I just want new zipper pulls
All hail timestamp guy
The funniest thing about the backpack is that now, all of those sold in the first few batch’s are now limited edition originals.

@cablefeed3738 they've moved even more screwdrivers and and the big jackets have huge numbers as well. They really do make more off the clothing line, lol.
1:35:30 - Emma and Luke seem perfect for each other. That is an awesome story.
Saw one guy in the live chat say "Not enough bro" in regards to what Linus said about the backpack.
How is either an extended warranty and $25 credit or a full no questions refund and return not good enough?
Remember when Linus was talking about genuinely bad takes? Lol.
I want a full refund _and_ keep the backpack _and_ a $100 credit!
It's called greed or just messing around. I hope it's the latter.
I’m sure people feel an emotional betrayal, but there’s little Linus can do about that since it’s the parasocial relationship that helps sell them in the first place and makes ‘betrayals’ feel so much deeper than they would with any other business.

I can only do it with the help of TimestampGuy, it's the best of both worlds.
Wen can just watch it in chunks, whenever we get to it 🤷 But I would like a split format as well. Like either putting in a deliberate cut and release the VOD on two days or stream two times a week 🙃
Intels marketing department taking it to the next level, giving their competition an example of how to market their product segments properly, such a power move!
@19:40 - Windows never had a 9 because of Windows 95 and Windows 98. There is a bunch of software out there that compares windows versions by the first part of the name of the product. So "Windows 9" was used to check for the version of 95 and 98. Having a Windows 9 that wasn't 95 and 98 would break a lot of old software. The crazy thing is the amount of legacy software written in the early to late 90s and early 00s that check for this that is mission critical. We would have a kind of Y2K problem if they had a Windows 9.
You should be responsible for you and your children. The government and the websites should not be expected to parent or raise you or your children.
General question: What will the process be like for us who bought the backpack in one of the two pop-up events? I didn't remember leaving any contact info when we bought the stuff in the pop-up, and I never received anything from my email.
I'd reach out to customer service if I were you and ask, they may not see a yt comment
Dan killed me with the, "I get to watch!" interjection 🤣
Have to say - this is Linus putting his money where his mouth is. I was one of those people who, while understanding his sentiment, did not appreciate an informal trust me bro guarantee. And this was the true test of that guarantee. This fix will cost Linus 6-7 figures and will probably eat into most of the profits of the first and second batch of the backpack run but it guarantees that the next time LTT sells an ultra expensive product people will truly trust them (as now there's precedent).
Personal message for Linus: It's one thing to trust you as a content creator, you've had that trust for years. Today you earned my trust from as a consumer.
If he didnt do it... he'd get sued... which would cost more.... and have to deal with charge backs, where he ends up eating a processing fee, delivery costs, and the cost of the product gets charged back... because banks really dont like it when you sell their customer something with misleading advertising. So this is actually the LESS expensive option for him, because attempting to remedy the issue on his own terms minimizes cost. Where as hundreds, if not thousands of people have charge back process would just be a bank saying "Fuck you, pay me." This is saving him money....
@@adammiller9029 the backpack has been out for more than a year now and most banks limit chargebacks to within 30-60 days (max i've seen is 120 days). The vast majority of these aren't eligible for chargebacks. He wont get sued because he is already going beyond the warranty, which is to give a full refund no questions asked. He is going even further by also giving people the option to wear out the bottom and then email support to get a new backpack which could take years. This solution is so much better than just fulfilling the warranty so there's no way he's going to get sued because everyone can get their money back.
Similarly to Noctua, who will provide free support for basically anything of theirs. I had to "build" 2 pcs for friends (not actually build, just put the parts list together. One ended up assembling it themselves with grest strife, the other hired a dude for 50€ and do it for them) and in both cases I pushed for a noctua cooler just because of support. If anything goes wrong, they will either have replacement parts or a refund with little to no hassle. If they want to change platform, they will get sendt the appropriate brackets for free. If I had gotten any other cooler, probably cheaper or better performing, support would have either been on me or non-existent. Offering a good after sale support will sell your products in many occasions.
At the same time, in both cases I put a ABSOLUTELY NO ASUS policy both for GPUs (added Gigabyte there) and motherboards because of the problems and especially because of the handling of said problems for the last 3 years by them. Not just limited to DIY pc, too: except for the last gen where everything seems to have gone ok, every rog phone and zenfone had a great risk of getting bricked by software updates or falling apart due to poor build quality, with warranties being denied all around. Fuck Asus for at least another 2 to 3 years.
Pretty neat for the backpack warranty, good to see Linus finally learned to wait before saying anything too.
Oh man, this weeks Dan Show was long but excellent
You guys are being super chill about the backpack “issues”. I want one soooooo bad. I just got my LTT Short Circuit Hoodie and I’m 100% happy.
Poor Dan having BTC on a harddrive and having no idea where it is has to be a great feeling 😂
Dan is honestly the best
Manufacturer should be picking up some of the cost of making the bags right, the designer should have asked someone before assuming it was an error and taking it upon themselves to make an unauthorized change.
Surely they have damage clauses.
Yup sending out thousands of emails can end up being blocked by your service.
I found the best thing to do was to contact service and ask what's the max we can send without being affected.
Then send out that many emails each day until all your recipients have had your newsletter emailed to them.
I never rly know how AMD's naming worked and I only knew intel's... but now thanks to Intel, I actually know how AMDs things are named😂
1:45:24 "I get to watch!" 🤣🤣 Dan is on 🔥
SDR content _can_ be pushed brighter, but I think the main reason displays are usually kneecapped with SDR content is because HDR expanded color values also apply to the luminance values of each individual color, which were set when it was color graded and mastered, same with SDR content. So technically the SDR content isn't being viewed as intended if you just push the brightness. I'm just guessing but it's not hard to imagine that some pieces of content will look worse if you simply push the brightness as it could reveal hidden problems that shouldnt be visible if it's being viewed as intended.
This is my thinking aswell. SDR content is specifically calibrated at 100 cd/m2 whereas HDR content is calibrated at a minimum of 400 cd/m2. I imagine the farther a monitor deviates from these values, the less technically color accurate the image will be.
Wouldn't this only be a concern if you're trying to use a display that is calibrated, though? Because most of us are probably never going to see a display (at home, anyway) that is calibrated for the same dynamics in luminance or color as the reference displays used for color grading the source material.
I see this as something like "vibrant mode" on displays now. If you want your grass neon green, well... go nuts. Far be it from anyone else to tell you what you like is wrong. Same, I think, should be said for luminance scaling.
The only downside I can see is this: HDR is all about dynamics, not actual brightness. SDR's range has always been compressed to give you as much sense of brightness as possible, without making it impossibly dark to watch in normal viewing conditions. HDR relieves you of having to make that compromise, as you can just keep going up when it's called for, and you're not losing visual fidelity when you don't need all that light. Ergo, if you use HDR scaling on SDR content, you might end up with material that is overly contrasted, and/or going overly bright too often. But, as long as you have contrast and brightness controls (of whatever kind), you should be able to limit that to something appropriate and pleasant.
Now if only we could get back the dynamic range of AUDIO....
Can you guys talk about RUclips censorship and how comments get automatically deleted if they contain the "wrong" words?
The fact AMD could respond with a statement simply saying "Re: Intel - LOL" and not need to justify or specify in any way is simultaneously hilarious and depressing.
If a streaming service never releases physical releases of a movie/show they made, and then it gets removed from the streaming service and is not available to watch or buy legally I think that morally (not legally though) absolves you of any wrongdoing by pirating it.
Where are timestamps?
"Let's have a meeting on WAN Show!"
_everyone immediately attacks Linus_
Yeah that seems right lol
1:11:00 - It's equivalent to someone making a phone call having to pay for it, while the person receiving the phone call also has to pay for it. Or for the sender and the receiver of a text message having to pay for it. Sound familiar to anyone?
It's also equivalent to the sender and recipient of mail and packages having to pay for it.

I hope we can buy the refurbished bags that are returned.
This is genius. Have them refurb/marked down to account for the flaw.
The email says they are looking at refurbishment and resale of the returned bags, so yes.
I swear everytime I wake up in the morning these livestreams are always playing
Yh
I’ve listened to the wan show for a long time. I don’t have anything to contribute to the commentary, so I haven’t. But today, I’d like to commend Linus’ recommendation to capture random moments of fatherhood or motherhood. Go daddies!!!!!!!
Cain call you daddy
I ended up returning my LTT bag about month ago, was rather painless and they paid for my shipping back. I got a Milwaukee Toolbag for about half the price and is able to stand up on its own for as long as the bag exists.
I'm from the UK and the conversation on age gating spicy content has been CRAZY over here. They used that bill to pass a piece of legislation giving the government the power to at a later date force tech companies to put in back doors into messaging apps if requested by a government body. They haven't done it yet they've just given them the power to do so. Using BUT THINK OF THE CHILDREN to remove ALL privacy is truly the worst use of that argument I can think of. Especially given how tech illiterate the entirety of parliament is they don't realize OTHER people can use back doors so their own WhatsApp groups are GOING to be leaked IMMEDIATELY 😅😅. Gotta love it when the entire government is brought down for leaking by their own legislation
I'm definitely one of those people interested in the NAS software with zero fuckery... Even watching basic shit about homelabbing type stuff, just not what I want to spend my time fiddling with.
I can't believe anyone buying a backpack will be wanting to return it but 🤷 LTT really is TMB
Respect
lol "anything on earth is limited" GOT 'EM
Thank you for doing the right thing with the backpack
I still love it and will keep it
And i am very happy to recomment your shop in the future
Relating to your "blue bubble" apple messaging conversation: I love it when people tell me that's why they have an IPhone. This way I know how superficial they really are and I can avoid that person in the future.
Timestamp guy where you at? You ok? We miss you....
I guess need to watch before note timstamps
@@maliogrodjust letting you know the timestamps have been posted.
Bump.
I also noticed that with last 2 or 3 drivers I have way more crashes with 7900XTX. What I have observed is that after most of them the integrated GPU in 7800X3D was showing an exclamation mark in device manager. Disabling it seems to reduce (or maybe even stop) the crashes. The latest driver, though definitely made things unstable with Hardware-Accelrated Graphics Scheduling, especially when resuming from sleep with Photoshop opened. Disabling it in Windows settings seems to fix this. I have shared whatever info I have through AMD's bug reporting tool after some of the crashes, so maybe they will be able to fix it at some point.
Just two months ago, I bought a Lenovo ThinkStation with dual Intel Xeon Platinum 8160 procesors (with a total of 48 cores, 96 threads) including Windows 11 before "eventually" coming to realize that an 8160 is known as "products formerly Skylake" which means Intel 6th Generation processor technology on 14 nm die. Wtf?
But, it's going to be ok. $40,000 unit new in 2017 was picked up for $1500 (256GB Ram, 16TB storage). And it's intended purpose is for a home lab.
Can confirm sending thousands of emails is way more difficult than just one.
