I love Luke's birds. Every time he talks they just chirp along with him. It's so cute. I mean, it's a bit like mic interference, but that timing is kinda what makes it adorable.

As much as I love the WAN show, I hate it when Luke is explaining something and Linus talks over him (especially when Luke is remote and harder to hear), and I miss what Luke was explaining because of Linus' tangent. No hate, love LTT, just being honest.

As much as I enjoy Linus and his entertaining hot takes, I'm looking forward to another Riley/Luke Wan show.

Riley is a well informed, engaging and watchable host. I enjoyed this WAN show.

Riley is great, so well spoken and quick on his feet, loved it!

As of today, Nov 19th, at some large web retailers here in Europe: 1) PcComponentes: About 18 RTX 4080 models offered, with almost all of them in stock and available for purchase, with prices starting at 1499 euros (VAT incl.) 2) CaseKing: About 15 RTX 4080 models offered, with half of them sold out, with prices again starting at 1499 euros (VAT incl.) 3) Computeruniverse: About 11 RTX 4080 models offered, starting at 1549 euros (VAT incl.), with 9 of them being in stock 4) Overclockers UK: About 21 RTX 4080 models offered, with almost all of them in stock, with prices starting at 1299 pounds (VAT incl.) PS: Please do not buy this card. Boycott these absurdly high prices with your wallet.

Riley on the WAN is a refreshing addition, please have him more often!

I love Riley's take on Andor. Such an amazing take on a Star Wars property. I really enjoy how they explore the intricacies of the formation of the rebellion and the inner workings of the ISB.

Luke's birds and Riley all in the same episode this is a great WAN show :)

I liked much more gamer's nexus review of the 4080. The main point was that the price to performance almost didn't change. For me it's a very important metric and the main point of the release

crazy how you guys talked about the 4080 selling out instantly, the microcenter by me still has at least 100 4080s in stock according to their website. Has been like that since launch.

Thank you KZfaq for removing timestamp guy's comments from the comment section, but keeping the WhatsApp scam bots. You are doing Satan's work. 👏👏👏

Hey, just a point of clarification as someone who lives in Dublin and has friends at twitter! Initially it WAS absolutely a 'get back to the office or else' scenario. The stance only changed when it was highlighted that this literally wasn't possible for some employees, also entirely likely that the new owner realised that Ireland has a lot more protections than other places and that would not fly legally

Linus, the way at will employment works in the US is that if you don't have a contract either party can terminate the employment at any time but that doesn't preclude an employee who's fired illegally from filing suit, as they are still protected by federal labor and anti discrimination laws and stuff like that. So you've got to look at both the state and federal laws to really understand the whole system.

"Until gamers stop buying nvidia cards at inflated prices". That is one of the core problem. Many people keep complaining but at the end of the day, they still chose to buy Nvidia cards. Not only that, there are influencer/techtuber out there who keep saying it's not worth it to buy Nvidia, etc etc, but in the end, they still using nvidia majority. In my view, people only want amd there to keep nvidia prices as low as possible. In the end they will still buy nvidia even if competitor offer far better in value cards. (Sorry for the bad english)

I have exclusively owned Nvidia high-tier cards for 20 years. The 7800 GTX, 8800 GTX, the GTX 280, 480, 580, 780, 1080, and currently 2080 Ti. This will be the first time I am not buying an Nvidia card. The 4080 would suit me fine, but it's beyond fucking ridiculously expensive. Here in Sweden, it costs $2'000+. And as we all know, no one is unique. If I am abandoning Nvidia, I am representing a group of some size, of people who will abandon Nvidia. I will buy a 4080 if they drop the price to around $850. Otherwise, I'm simply not buying it.

Missing the good old time stamps , and still waiting for my LTT screwdriver. Thank you

It's not the first time LTT has picked a former bad value card to justify a new bad value card as not bad. Even against 3080 ti you compared it to a 3090. Stop ignoring the $699 3080 10GB. No one is telling you to compare 4080 to 3060, compare it to 3080.

I used an external GPU that was literally an adapter plugged into the WWAN card port of my laptop and it was glorious. I had to restart 3-5 times to get it to work most times if I disconnected it. Went from single digits in Unigine Valley on integrated to like 60fps though.

@12:45 the birds flying in the background @Luke's house! 😂

The Taskmaster mention from Luke made me happy. Definitely a unique panel show worth binging.

I'm happy that Linus and crew still keep the stance of "competition is good." Regardless of viewers reaction. Keep it up! 😁

I don't know if you all have already tested, but I heard that using a DirectX wrapper that convert DX to Vulcan will resolve different problem and can boost old DX game. Maybe will not be good to use it on online games, but would be nice to see your approach on it. Edit: in regards on using Intel arc

In the "second PCIe slot for GPU", I think it was about mechanical support to the GPU, and maybe extra power. It would be enough to use PCIe x1 slot.

"Putting it in our mouth instead of all over our face" went over so many heads 🤣🤣🤣

1:06:40 The moment WAN show became Tech Longer.

Someone tell Luke we are not bothered by the birds. If he is trying to silence them for our sake, he shouldn't worry about it.

Diving computers are so convenient, and are really a life saver sometimes

1:16:50 Knowing that Luke watches Taskmaster is somehow the highlight of this WAN show for me. I absolutely love that show.

Luke's reaction to his bird flying in front of his face was amazing

To be fair, 6900 xt MSRP was $999. So they are pricing the 7900 xt and xtx right in line with last gen.

Allthough i watch about 95%of LMG content and channel superfun is my favorite but the WAN SHOW is by far the best lmg long format content on youtube thats reviewing things more in depth.

I can't believe the sheer coincidence of Riley talking about Andor and Luke talking about Taskmaster. Two shows that couldn't have less in common, but somehow both featuring Benjamin Harvey Bailey Smith AKA Doc Brown.

Im loving these streams. Feels Cozy and calming. Keep it up guys!

I got a prebuilt 3070 pc back in Covid times because prices kept going up. I brought before it got more expensive, if i had waited for prices to come down i would be paying 500-1000 dollars more for the build and setup I have. That being said I live in nz so consumer market is highly inflated by shipping and tax

Luke's bird doing a really close flyby at 31:51 was really unexpected

The birds flying around are awesome. You need a bird or two for the studio in case Luke ever returns.

Love hearing and seeing Lukes budgies in the background! Happy birds! ❤

The hardcore thing totally seemed like a ploy to get the employee count to lower as fast as possible while not breaking any termination laws. Totally worded to make people want to quit😊

Got my all black screw driver today. The thing is SWEET!

22:00 I had my PC like this for quite a while some years back, but instead of having a launch sequence whenever I wanted to turn on my machine, I actually did things somewhat properly. I used a mosfet to bridge the green pin to ground when the main PSU turned on, that way the slave PSU would turn on automatically.

LUKE! Taskmaster is HILLARIOUS. I watch an episode on my way to work and it's honestly great. I'm the same way though where I forget about it for a month or 2 lol

17:15 ah yes moving their top end pricing from $999 to $999. meanwhile nvidia did $699 to $1199.

I have never worn Vessi shoes so this is not specifically a comment on their products, BUT I have had "waterproof" shoes that I quite liked and were sealed very well, but I have still managed to in heavy rain and while bicycling get them soaking wet through and through. These were a columbia sportswear shoe with their DryOut technology which is very similar to gortex. I love this material and it has performed well most of the time. However, when there is enough rain and water kicked up from the ground water WILL get in. So I agree with Linus there, at the very least waterproof should always have a big * defining to what standards or expected conditions it will be waterproof.

you can plug in 8pin into 6pin PCIe power just fine, it just needs to be 6-8 and not 8-6 on the card, the right side of 8pin is compatible with 6 pin. no mod necessary (if the card has 2mm of space left of the plug)

Summon the time stamp guy!

1:14:27 I finally agree with Riley! Andor is the prequel to Rogue One and surpasses Rogue One in every way. It explains the specific behaviors of the Empire that sparks the Rebellion and how that Rebellion is formed. I feel like an empty space in Canon has finally been filled.

iirc, you can do static-line parachute jumps solo without a license (where the chute deploys for you as you leave the aircraft). Pretty sure there's a way higher injury rate with that because you still have to land properly.

Dual power supplies: My very first computer was a Tandy PC-1000 with dual floppies and no hard drive. A time later I was gifted a 5.25" full height 40MB hard drive and corresponding MFM controller. Of course this wouldn't fit in my case, plus my power supply couldn't give enough power. I ended up having to run the MFM cable out the back of the PC, put the drive and a new AT power supply on top of my PC. I had to power on the HD first, then boot up the PC.

@23:55 VR on Linux is totally a thing. Especially the Index Linus has. Including Beat Saber, it works literally out of the box, once you get VR up and running.

I listen to the show while I am working 3rd shift network stuff ..

Luke's budgies are so cute, because they love him so much that they have to chirp back when he's talking.

1:04:00 Use a PCI E slot that has no connections. So it's just a support that clicks in

On the Pokemon topic, Gamefreak already has multiple teams that rotate through each release. This is the state of scarlet/violet after 3 years of dev time. I think a big factor is that they still insist on writing their own game engine. BDSP was built in unity and while they made a lot of bad decisions around that game, technically speaking it performed great.

4080 did not sell out in day1 it not only had less shiped to retailers, it only sold about 1/3 of stock... sometimes in entire week!

You do have some protections but the company doesn’t have to have specific reasons that fall into categories as long as they follow their own policy to let you go the reason could be misuse of sticky notes

You HAVE TO teach your Kadabra Shadow Ball too! It's unstoppable!

With the rapid increase in prices across the board for PC hardware over the last few years, it's actually difficult to be excited about new hardware launches. On top of that, it seems most new hardware is taking a brute force approach, where the performance increase is mostly mirrored by the power usage. With the global increase in electricity costs, this is not a good trend. I know that a lot of gamers buy hardware without actually considering the running costs, but at this point, we're seeing total system power consumption actually reaching upwards of 800-1000W for a really high end system. To me, an exciting hardware launch next cycle would be same performance as now, with significantly less power usage, and hopefully lower prices.

Here's an idea to combat blind. When you sending out company comms you could create a unique key out of the spacing in the text, to see who is sharing internal company comms screen shots.

I made two orders in July and immediately emailed asking if they could be combined to save shipping cost. They just emailed me (5 months later) saying they had already shipped it… no $h!t. Smfh. Wish level customer support.

Still don't have my screwdriver that was supposed to ship end of October. Label created week into Nov. and took a week to get from Canada to Washington. For a niche/small company, I have no complaints since the tracking has been easy to access for my order and communication happened around the time the order confirmation said it would be. Keep up the hard work!

What the hell KZfaq We love the timestamp guy

1:03:37 With regards to using 2 PCIe slots, you could use the second slot to provide additional support. But not populate the the fingers beyond power and ground, which would give you an extra 75W of power available to the card.

Two pci connectors has always made sense to me NOT for data, but for gpu sag and power. 150watts straight from board and two connection points to help with the physical durability

I would like to see you guys do the Arc challenge twice. The initial rocky one and then wait 6 months and do it again and see how much it has improved.

All of the local 4-5 microcenter stores here in the Ny area are full of 4080s sitting on the shelves, some places had 100+ still. They’re not moving fast, the 4090 sold much better

I want to see external GPU's become more common. I believe with them getting as big as they are. I would like to see that be an option for self sustained little chassis, cooling, and power.. I would also like to see LTT do a lot of testing with compatibility on that.

I've done 7 sky dives and it was so much fun. The more I did it the more I wanted to do it. The AFF program was a lot of fun. Certification allows you to do more there are standards you need to meet to do different things.

"A few days" is cute. My backpack label was printed and notification emailed to me A MONTH ago. To the day. 19/10/22, still sitting pretty in Vancouver according to Wizmo. Nope, I'm not mad. I'm actually HAPPY you mentioned it on the show, because that explains it. And I knew you were fecking busy and didn't want to bother the team. Cheers!

The birds are absolutely awesome. You should unironically have them in every stream.

There is one big advantage to having your own dive computer; the no--fly-time, the time you need to breath off the nitrogen from your blood to stop it from bubbling at altitude, will be accurate and not affected by the diver previously diving with that device.

as a PADI divemaster, there is so much that a dive computer does. 1 basic thing is that it can run algorithms to help you stay within safe limits and at the ablsolute most basic is that it is a digital readout of manual gauges

Absolutely love taskmaster! Guaranteed to make me consistently laugh out loud

90's fashion in Canada/US must have been vastly different from the UK. Also, as a 3090 and 4090 owner, the only thing I care about it being compared to is last gens previous top card and the competitions current top card. 90 model buyers really don't care about the price or price to performance, we simply want the highest performance available.

Hearing Luke enthusiastically confirm he stole that power supply from work makes me want to see his Intel Extreme Tech Upgrade, because it would be such a tonal shift from all the employees that gets defensive about it...

1:30:00 If you think Kadabra was over powered in gen I, you'll love Gen II. Not only does it still have crazy high special attack, but it can also learn Ice, Fire, and Thunder Punch which are special in that generation. You can solo run that whole game with the only tough fight being the Houdoom in the elite 4.

I think that a core issue is that fans want AMD to be propped up so that they are more competitve againt Nvidia, whilst LTT is more concered with just raw performance, features etc. and isn't concerned about that. Neither side is inherently wrong or right because they are both coming from different perspectives from the outset.

“It’s like putting it in our mouth instead of all over our face!” Goooold 😂 Ltt please continue the great work, love it all the time!!!!

8:13 There are 29 available at my local Microcenter right now. So... They sure did restock really quick somehow 🤔

The big thing was that they fired a lot of people who were getting together to discuss workplace problems. They wrote a letter about it, publicized it, then they were all fired and publicly denounced. You can't do that in California or the U.S. without huge legal implications.

I fear we may never see him again. God speed time stamps guy

Luke, renting dive computer is fine, especially if not diving more than a few weekends a year. Just make sure you get the unit assigned to you for the entire group of dives you do (eg the whole weekend). I know people that have ended up in the chamber switching computers from Saturday to Sunday :(

Imagine Intel calling Luke in a few weeks: "How did you manage to short out this card?" - "Yeah, so I had this voltage differential between my two power supplies..." :D

Timestamp guy, we miss you

On pricing stuff: Talking about it does influence people. I used to buy a lot of lootbox type stuff but the more I heard people on youtube that I respect the opinion of make arguments for why buying that stuff is a bad Idea the less lootboxy stuff I ended up engaging with. I hadn't really thought about it before and my initial reaction was pretty defensive. I do think that bringing it up excessively can be exhausting not just for you but also the viewer. All things in balance.

I couldn't find the WAN shows, didn't realise there's a "live" tab now. 😅

Luke should've waited for Linus to talk about the Doom Eternal Soundtrack, it's a really interesting and deep read and Luke didn't do it justice. I recommend everybody do their own reading into what happened. Mick Gordon recently published his own article on it which covers everything.

4080s are very much still in stock in my region, their pricing certainly isn’t working here

I’ve thought about RDNA 3 pricing and it is up if you consider the 6900xt was $999 as a 3090 competitor, while now the 7900xtx is a $999 4080 competitor, where the 3080 competitor, aka 6800xt, was $650. At best it’s only up from that to $899 but it’s still pushing the xx80 tier up by 40%
