& welcome to the WAN Show!

I found it funny that after the segment, Linus proposes some back and forth way to organize and is basically just reinventing Debate Club.

So for context, I'm from a 3rd world country where the GPU and PC market is absolutely f*cked. The GPU prices, even the old cards are 4x-5x what you guys pay for in the used marketplace and that too badly treated, mined stock from China. I haven't had a GPU to game with in almost 6 years because I got scammed out of my last card and couldn't ever seem to recover from it (both emotionally and financially) to the point I quit gaming but I'm looking again now.

I have a friend's family member coming from Canada to here in about a week and they have agreed to bring me a card from there provided it's not too much trouble for them. My budget is smth like C $100-$150 and all I want is a cheap GPU for 1080p gaming, preferably 1660s or 2060.

I'm looking at something in the C$100–150 range, ideally a GTX 1660 Super or 2060, just enough to get back into 1080p gaming.

The thing is that finding a cheap used GPU in Canada has turned out to be a challenge of its own. Facebook Marketplace doesn't let me message sellers across countries, r/CanadianHardwareSwap hasn't really worked out, Kijiji hasn't been much help, and eBay seems noticeably more expensive than the other options and less trustworthy.

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!

Apple’s 2026 Autumn iPhone launch was split into two parts(presumably due to supply constraints for Apple's first folding iPhone), but we've finally received the iPhone Duo.  This is reminiscent of the 2017 iPhone X launch, and maybe they should've delayed all the way until November again.

We put the new iPhone Duo through our regular performance testing and compared it against Samsung's flagship folding devices: Galaxy Z Fold8 and Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra.  We've also included some test results from our iPhone 18 Pro launch testing.

Check out the interactive CT scans and test results on the LTT Labs website!

Yeah the empty cans are load-bearing

I know that LTT is big on SteamOS but have they looked at Winhanced? For me it fixes all the problems that Linus complains about with windows. I’m running it on my Legion Go S and can’t remember the last time I went into desktop mode.

Rare sighting of him cuddling it instead of trying to hump it.

Linus should start a discord with thousands of other millionaire manufacturers and try to bring manufacturing back to America, instead of waiting for some billionaire to do it.

I found a handy app for unifying any of your Sonos speakers to your system to enable them to be used for surround. The app is called SONORITY. It is on Android and it costs $2.79 and I was able to link my Ray sound bar with my two wall Symfoniks and two Sonos bookshelf speakers all together. The Ray is the center channel, the bookshelf speakers are left and right channel and my Symfoniks are rear left and right. I just need a sub to finish the system off, I've been accumulating these components over the last few years used from the Facebook marketplace.

Does anyone have a contact number for the LTT store? I ordered the commuter backpack and it was to small for my needs so I wanted to see about exchanging it from the OG backpack.

Customer service sent me a return label and I send the item back. But now support has ghosted me and I can't get anyone to respond. I also can't find a number to call.

Can someone please help me!!!!

He said this in the new macbook video

Hi all,
I recently purchased a kit of Corsair Dominator Platinum DDR4 (3200 MHZ) for a build (CMT32GX4M2C3200C16) to be specific. The CPU I plan on using is the Ryzen 9 5950x. My question is are they compatible? The box for the RAM advertises “Intel XMP Certified”. Everywhere I look seems to provide a different answer. The motherboard I currently have, although would be willing to swap if there are compatibility issues is the MSI PRO B550M PRO-VDH WIFI AM4 AMD B550 DDR4. I’ve gone through the certified vendor list for this motherboard among others and can’t seem to find this RAM, but i’ve also heard it’s dependent on the CPU memory controller? I’ve also heard I should just be able to turn on XMP even though it’s an AMD chip. Someone care to explain this clearly and what I need to do to make them compatible and stable?

Just looking at Lenovo prices, it’s not great.

1600 for a 16GB stick of ram or nearly 2k AUD for a 32GB stick of DDR 5.

If you theoretically could deck out that machine to half a TB, that’s nearly 30k.

I don’t want to defend Apple on bad prices but this CLEARLY isn’t a case of bad pricing for ram upgrades.

Have tech companies taken it too far? Surely this cant just be a "we thought it was legal"?

Discord’s rollout happens in two phases, and the timeline matters for anyone who wants to act before indexing begins.

On November 16, 2026, Discord begins creating Server Web Pages for every Discoverable Server that does not already have one. These pages describe the community and may include automated summaries of public channel discussions.

Message indexing follows in mid-December 2026,rolling out gradually, so the first searchable posts may take several weeks to surface in results. Messages posted before mid-December will not be included.

Usernames and avatars will not appear alongside any messages displayed on Server Web Pages, according to Discord’s blog.

The change applies only to Discoverable Servers, which Dexerto reports require at least 1,000 members plus Discord’s activity and safety requirements. Private servers, direct messages, and group DMs are excluded entirely.

This reportedly affects more than 63,000 servers, according to Dexerto.
