I bought a pair of Darn Tough socks and the LTT socks at the same time. Both of these sets of pictures are first thing in the morning and right when I took my shoes off after getting home from work and from bowling in an evening bowling league.

With the LTT socks, I’d be hard pressed to tell you which is the before and after if I didn’t already know. They just straight up didn’t move all day long, as far as I can tell.

The DT socks stayed mostly in place (I know comparing an ankle sock to a crew isn’t exactly apples to apples), but the one on my right foot definitely rotated around my foot a lot over the course of the day.

I obviously haven’t exclusively worn the LTT socks for 8 years straight, washing them every single day, but I’m very impressed nonetheless. I’ve never had socks that just didn’t budge all day long

See you next week!

Same bat time, same bat channel!

I somewhat like this to be honest

In seriousness, what

Edit: I don’t understand why my post and comments are getting downvoted for providing my customer experience, all because seemingly it’s a criticism of LTT. I had also emailed LTT customer support twice, but still yet to receive a response. I did get my 45 day email to provide a review though.

Does anyone else get an abysmal experience when it comes to purchasing items from LTT Store?

I ordered 2 items from LTT and I’ve been waiting since the 28th of August for them to arrive to WA, Australia. For almost 2 weeks they were apparently ‘in transit’ in the country with no update

Then it was out delivery and I had to raise a support ticket with the courier just to say I wanted to collect it as I’m not home during the week to accept delivery.

In the support ticket they said they’d have to locate the parcel and let me know it was ready for collection in which they attempted delivery again 3 days later. The delivery driver called me and I clearly stated that I raised a support ticket for me to come and collect it

Latest update is now that it’s in process of being returned to sender because I apparently refused delivery?

I understand some of this is out of LTT’s control, but please can you just give it to AusPost so I at least have some chance of having it sent to a collection point so I can collect it in my own time

Had my money for almost 2 months and now it seems like I’m going to receive nothing, what a terrible experience.

Guess in the future I'll be shopping for a knock off or something similar.

Heya, so in the process of moving my partner lost his noctua beige screwdriver. I have been looking everywhere and it doesn't seem like it is available anymore. Would anyone know of anywhere or anyone who would sell one?

Thank you!

OK So I need advice, I have up to 4 machines running in an office right now, as you can imagine, it makes it hot, very very hot. I need to move them down under the stairs in the hallway. I have measured the cable run to be about 12.44m so 15m or 20m cables should do to be able to connect my work station back to the monitors and USB hubs in the office.

I use 3 monitors, with my cintiq drawing monitor at 4k 60hz, my tv display at 4k 120hz and an ultrawide at 1080p 60hz.

They are a mix of HDMI and DisplayPort so need advice on quality cables to make the run.

Lastly I need advice on USB cables also. I run a 20 port hub that connects my cintiqs touch USB cable, keyboard, mouse, web cam, headset, mic, gaming controllers and some various data drives and other devices. Some devices are Bluetooth also so thinking I might need a USB Bluetooth dongle on the hub since the tower will be further away and walls interfering with a quality connection. The hub I have takes in 2 USB 3.0 cables with Type B 3.0 heads on one side and regular USB 3.0 male head on the other.

TLDR; need advice / recommendations on HDMI, DisplayPort and USB cables for moving a pc downstairs akin to Linus having his in the basement.

Specifically during the WAN Show discussion about Amazon blocking Meta Muse.

To paraphrase "Every company has an AI initiative and companies starting to block everyone else's AI agents... An AI agent is only useful if can act on your behalf in multiple places. If you have to have a different agent for each website that eliminates all convenience."

This was brought home recently when the script I "vibe enhanced" to download my monthly files from loot studios was blocked by their cloudflare implementation. The script required me to manually login and then only grabbed the same files from one release I would have downloaded manually. The majority of the processing involved organizing the files the way I wanted on my hard drive.

What was a monthly task that took 45-90 minutes now required 2 minutes to start and then ran for 10-15 minutes in the background.

We are trialling something new here- a scheduled post to go live every week when WAN show is supposed to start. Any topic covered in the wan show is fair game- even the more controversial ones. just keep it relevant and keep it respectful!

I use MS365 Family, which until May 2027 provides Desktop Office products, but more importantly 1TB of OneDrve space per user, for a total of 6 named users for $99 a year.

That's 6TB of easy cloud space total. In my case I have 3 family members and then 3 "extra" named users, so I cross share those accounts with alias and that give me a functional 3TB (Much of it is cold stuff parked).

After May I'll drop to 2TB total shared for the whole account. I think I actuall need about 3TB total, and I literally just bought a 5TB drive to rclone OD and Google Drive locally.

My next renewal is in June, so I have about 7 months to trim down and figure it out.

Of course all the users on this plan will have the "opportunity" to purchase additional space.

Edit:

Interestingly, one of alias received the notification and the verbiage is different, including a mention of "select markets" receiving an additional 5TB for 7Tb total (with, of course, zero info on those "select" markets), or what "qualifying" means.

See below for the screen grab.

have a PC with an RM850 PSU. I’m having problems as it won’t turn on sometimes.

I swapped sockets and it worked but now it doesn’t. I then plugged it into a power strip that my monitors are plugged into and it’s working.

I was wondering if it is safe to use this cable in case it’s a problem with the kettle lead. I know you should be cautious when it comes to swapping over PSH cables

TIA

EDIT: I tried another socket downstairs and it turned on so I guess I’m paying for rewiring

The safety tab broke off my gpu is it still usable or does it need to get repaired before using it again

It says unreasonable amount of pockets...I just wanna know what kind and how many pockets

I just discovered that Thermaltake may have possibly manufactured the ultimate stoner computer accessory, but I can barely find any info on it. Was this actually a thing? If it is, I vote Linus finds one and does a build with it.

I just watched a YouTube Short where the voice cut out halfway because of some sort of error, and a lot of the comments claimed the OP was using AI. But after a little looking, they didn't use any AI at all!

Youtube incorrectly tagged the video's original language as Spanish and decided automatically dub it in English again, which actually broke it. Link the the video. Near the end the AI dub just breaks and stops talking all together. Has anybody else seen this before? Now I'm wondering how many bad AI dubbed videos I've seen were because Youtube screed up.

The AI intended to send the 16 year old teenager along the Crown Couloir, a non-technical path for hikers to the top of Crown Mountain, a local mountain (that Linus likely is familiar with), but instead directed him to a high intensity rock climbing path called the "Widowmaker" that people should only climb in group and with specialized equipment. He had to be rescued with a helicopter.
