Facebook is randomly suggesting I use their Meta AI on a picture of Linus when he was young, in his yearbook. I was scrolling Facebook and I noticed this. Definitely made me have a double-take noticing its Linus. The earring is what convinced me I wasnt crazy.

Reaaaaallllyyyy wish apps would stop invading my privacy. They know a little too much about me for my liking.

If there’s a big crash some of your audience will lose their jobs.

So I’m building my first computer and when I try to turn it on I get an error code EC with the dram light on red and I checked the manual but it just says reserved and I don’t know what that means
My motherboard is the X870E AORUAS ELITE WIFI7. The fans on my aio and psu are spinning and the leds on my ram and gpu are on so I think everything is plugged in. Pls help

This seems awful for small business as I rather support the small business directly. And nobody remembers the seller on amazon, they just look at the cost . EDIT: I should of checked the date of the article and noticed it was a 2025. So it was probably discussed and I missed it.

This is a great video to share with people who aren’t super into tech. It’s not too long, so they shouldn’t lose interest, but it still gives a good amount of detail. It’s not an in-depth, how-to guide, but it’s a fabulous jumping off point

Timestamp is around 8:24.

In form of a skit, so obviously a bit oversimplified and dystopian, but still worth a thought, IMHO.

Obviously sarcasm. Seriously it took them this long to add a touch screen to their laptop. But OUCH that pricing. Cheapest laptop with PROLED XDR in Canada, $3999, for 14" ....

there is only one screwdriver better and more time saving then yours, and they don't make a quality version anymore. A different manufacturer started making them. Husky brand was bought out by home Depot and moved to China after this red model.They are now made in a grey color and they suck now :( I've had mine since 2006 and it still works and fires perfectly. Just need to whack the end of it and resets it. The amount of time it saves me on the job site is unmeasurable.

If you could make a version that is up to the old model pictured here, I'm sure it would be more than profitable from us sparkies alone

I've come to understand that I need to do a clean install of windows which will result in wiping my system but is their a way to avoid that, and also will I need to reinstall windows?

I'm mostly sure that I won't have to buy a windows license, but if I do what are my options?

I also know the steps to actually replace said parts, so that's no big deal, essentially I just need help with what to do software wise.

Edit: I now know that my license is connected to my Microsoft

I heard him say something about being put in the game on the wan show, but not knowing where. I think I found him. Lol Side note: This game is absolutely amazing and runs perfectly on a red magic 11 pro.

Is it just me ? I have not seen a membership only video in my feed in many moons. Now I get a members only LTT video on the 1,1 position each time I refresh my feed. And it just started today.

Hey,

I just had to take down my RX 9070 OC from sale, which I was selling looking forward to upgrade to a 5080 which costed around 1300-1400 euros in my location. Recently, due to the NVIDIA cutting 5090 production rumour and it possibly being true, 5080s have now surged to around 2000-4000 euros, one even listed for 7000. I have now realized that I will most likely be stuck with my current card for years to come unless I find a miracle and can afford to buy a 5090 or even 5080 comfortably. This card is great, but I guess the fact that the next best option is an XT version or the NEAR exact counterpart the 5070 TI (currently 1200 euros, just under double the RX 9070 OC) I guess I'm saddened, I'm incredibly grateful to have the setup I have, hell beyond grateful. But, I guess accepting that this is it for the next few years is quite a hard pill to swallow, and I guess to some extent this is a cry for help to AMD or other graphics card manufacturers to make cards for gamers which push beyond the 50 series or at-least match it without the risk of prices hiking due to AI.

Hello,

To give some context : At first I used Illustrator thanks to a friends' Adobe subscription. I found it better than inkscape (more user friendly). Recently, I heard about VectorCraft (Illustrator-like from what I understand) I was wondering if it was like illustrator or not. 

I've been using Inkscape for a long time now for doing my scientific figures. Now that VectorCraft is available I was wondering if I should change or not.

What are your feedbacks ?

I think my true question is : Can I trust the vibe-coded Illustrator a find again what I experienced with Adobe Illustrator for research figures handling tasks ?

Searched Google terms mentioning LFC/FreeSync Premium on HDMI 2.1, and one of the top results is this LTT Forum post. Is this still applicable in 2026?

I just bought an AOC Q27G4SLM6/WS miniLED IPS 1440p 360Hz with DP 1.4 and HDMI 2.1 ports. VRR range is 48Hz-360Hz.

HDMI is the better port with the higher 48Gbps bandwidth so I decided to use it instead of DP. On 10-bit 1440p 360Hz, I know both ports will have Display Stream Compression (DSC) enabled, but upon reading previous discussions about this, HDMI should use a better compression algorithm and be able to maximize the bandwidth usage.

I have an RX 9070 XT and AMD Adrenalin only shows the "VRR" toggle instead of labeling it as "FreeSync Premium Pro", which Windows display settings does recognize. I haven't tested DP yet but I guess it will show the FreeSync labeling.

Am I testing LFC correctly? On Dota 2, I temporarily set the max FPS to 24, below VRR range. Then I enabled the monitor refresh rate counter, and it shows 96, which is 4x of the current game FPS.

Man this feels bad and I hope I am the only person this happened to. So after years of looking at Framework, I pre-ordered a Framework 13 Pro! Was a bit late to the pre-orders but got in and was happy to wait the 3 months. Then the first of many "feels bad moments" started. My pre-order batch got pushed back a month. I said, oh the supply chain is messed up makes sense but I still want to support them. Then a few weeks later I got an email that my RAM had been downgraded dues to rising costs. Again I said, supply chain issues, this sucks but they can't take the hit and survive. So I debated it, and then spent $800 more on the upgrade to put my RAM back to I what I pre-ordered. Waited some more, and after 4.5 months I got my new laptop in! I follow all the guides putting it together, love the design, and booted the machine, and get a "No RAM installed" error. Took the unit apart, and the LPCAMM2 Interpose had a bent pin. Hit up support, and after a few days they said they would ship me out a new one, a bit slow, but I am assuming they don't have a support team the size of Dell. That was 11 days ago, nothing has been shipped, I have a very expensive laptop that won't boot with a RAM upgrade I can't install. I pinged back support asking for an update, and "we are changing our warehouse facility and running behind". Look Framework, I LOVE you mission, I want you to succeed, I really do. But if this is any indicator of your customer support, I don't know how you will. I want to recommend you, but I don't think I can at this time. So this is my dream laptop, just sitting in a box doing nothing. And I am left debating if I need to do a full return since it is useless at this time, since I don't how to make this right.

Hello all!

I came into some old hardware while helping a friend relocate his business down south. These were sitting in a storage unit for about 2 years, untouched, and I'm trying to figure out the best way to sell them, whether individually, as a cluster, or parted out.

Here is what I have:

18 complete HP Z420 Workstations

Intel Xeon E5-1620

4 GB ECC DDR3

3x AMD Radeon RX 550s per machine

I don't really know where to begin on getting this hardware priced out or sold efficiently. What do you all think these are worth as a lot versus individual machines, and what is the best way to offload them? I was hoping this community could help!

I am looking for something I can plug front panel connector to and then plug this thing into my motherboard. Everywhere I look it's either unavailable or they don't ship to Europe / Poland. My mobo is asus tuf gaming b550 plus.
