  • I still occasionally run across the odd dodgy website that tried to disable zooming (along with other oddities like trying to disable right clicking on desktop) and it feels honestly that most of these annoyances come about because some asshole in the company (the CEO, lead designer, marketer, whatever) sees any changes to their websites from the user as “ruining the experience”, disregarding the whole concept of accessibility in the modern web













  • Gamers Nexus (another highly respected tech YouTuber) called out LTT for their mistakes and performances over the last few years, the overall point being that they’re moving too fast and causing multiple mistakes in their content.

    There’s a current controversy with a company called Billet who gave LTT a custom water block to test and instead of testing it properly with the 3090 it was made for, they tried it with a 4090 card (and it obviously didn’t work)

    Linus doubled down on their results saying it wouldn’t have mattered anyway because it’s a rubbish product and no one should buy it (which came across very poorly, why even agree to test a product if you know your going to trash on it)

    The whole situation specifically looks like it’s triggered some upcoming changes in LMG and hopefully the outcome is better, more accurate video content










  • I’ve raised this in the matrix chat and have flagged this again to Ernest. I know initially about 2 months ago when the exodus happened that he was scrambling around trying to keep the server running as everyone joined.

    Over the last few weeks he’s be busy with a flood of PRs with either fixes, new features or support for the upcoming API integration.

    I had no idea this ticket existed (mostly because there’s been almost 1000 tickets submitted and I’ve been working on improvements)

    Hopefully he can have a look at this and fix these issues soon, I seriously don’t think this was done maliciously, but I’ll do what I can to raise it (I have minimal exposure to open source licensing so I don’t want to touch these files myself)
