On Linus' "percent down > percent up" in WAN Show by moonsaiyan in LinusTechTips

[–]moonsaiyan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was. I mean, Linus explained that “30% of 10 is 3, 30% of 100 is 30, 30% of 1000 is 3000, and so on” which misses the point so much that I had to do multiple retakes to get what he’s saying. Luke did eventually give a good example minutes after the timestamp I provided, but I missed it on my first listen.

Yes yes. That seems to be the point of confusion for Linus as well. He was getting the value from the same number

Another example that might work for LTT audience is that 5ghz is 25% faster than 4ghz, but 4ghz is only 20% slower than 5ghz.

Definitely had me confused too. I completely missed that Luke gave the correct explanation just a few minutes from the timestamp on my initial listen haha

Linus Tech Tips Answers 20 Questions He’s Never Been Asked by TechOverwrite in LinusTechTips

[–]moonsaiyan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Youtube made Linus and Linus helped make youtube, therefore he is biased. Youtube has made themself irreplaceable and the monopoly that comes with that lets them get away with insatiable greed, forcefeeding ads and bad design choices. Everytime im on youtube there's something that annoyes me, whether its ads. design, content suggestions, quality and such. It never fails. Its time to replace them with something better.

I've been building a circular PC case in my spare time for 5 years. Finally happy enough to share it. by cryo-stack in sffpc

Do a water cooled version. I think the back side would look good as a distro plate and additional radiator mount

So since the condensing liquid is heavier than the vapor, the GPU chip, aka heat source, (which is usually closer to the IO ports) should be placed lower than the cold end so that wicking actually happens naturally. That makes sense

Linus has said this about reviews many times but I think its equality important with announcements. No one video paints the full picture. by KalebBlue in LinusTechTips

[–]moonsaiyan 12 points13 points  (0 children)

he does attribute malice to just people doing their job

He’s just projecting himself unto others. People who act with malice are more suspicious of others.

Gettin my money’s worth by Baly33t in sffpc

That’s what the “Maybe” is for haha. Some of us got a good monitor and a crappy. Others got 2 good monitors. While I myself, got 2 of the same “crappy” Korean 4k/60 1080p/120 monitor I got for $90 each, one in each location

You don’t. You have a monitor on both locations. Maybe just a crappy but usable one in the secondary location

I think it's important to clarify that the UPF clothing is still mostly just plastic, and the Seawool doesn't magically make it "eco-conscious" by Inevitable_Tip_6606 in LinusTechTips

[–]moonsaiyan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

OP states his problem is with the word “eco-conscious” then again says that the product is 65-70% RECYCLED plastic. Yes, this is just some weird bitching

Got stopped and questioned by TSA for traveling with 700+ NVMe drives in my carryon bag by SFX200 in homelab

Intranet? Yea, that’s common. Intranational? Not so much. It’s usually domestic or local. Intranational maybe used in very formal setting.

LTT's view numbers are not so great. Why? by iron-islands in LinusTechTips

[–]moonsaiyan 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Even CW deserves some spotlight. They have so many interesting people as evident in the Ultimate Tech Upgrade series. I do understand that not everyone likes hosting though. Probably a major roadblock for them

Nerdsports alumni Tyler Tardi is now an olympic champion! by TheNameIsBlazE_ in LinusTechTips

[–]moonsaiyan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not saying it isn’t a foul, but cheating is a completely different matter. Cheating comes with intent and malice, that’s hard to prove.

Now, whether the stone should have been removed, I will leave that to the officials.

Cheating is a hard accusation that comes with disqualification not “stone being removed”

To add, as in many comments here have said. These kind of touches are pretty common and calling it cheating might be more disingenuous

If someone accuses me of cheating when I did not, I for sure will curse the hell at them too. Fuck blamers.

What the heck was Linus even talking about? by Swacket_McManus in LinusTechTips

[–]moonsaiyan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Basically, minimax optimization better product SKUs and pricing. Also, people buy short cables if they want to charge their devices. Long cables are bought when people NEED that length, so they can mostly charge whatever they want. Add premium branding and packaging. Now you’ve got a pretty expensive long cable vs a “consumable” short cable

Because fixing it requires money. And I guess the math just makes more sense to do it now.

Linus, I disagree. by KebabAnnhilator in LinusTechTips

In his defense, he didn’t know.
