Tech Discussion Have Samsung banned LMG?

Surprised there was no video of the Folds that Samsung showed off yesterday. Have Samsung banned LMG from their events or stopped sending them stuff in advance?

Discussion Linux Autoscroll

1 Upvotes

Hey Linus, Don't worry bud. I got you for the autoscroll for Linux.

https://github.com/NPC-I/autoscroll-linux/

When you pointed out it wasn't a thing i went down the rabbit hole. Found a python Script that did something very similar (Many thanks to CultureCrypto for that. It helped my past some issues i was having).

But a direct deb, rpm, aur seemed like a better shout. So Here is it :). (note tested on Pop OS 24.04 without issues) Please report if you find any and ill fix. <3

Discussion Market for 2nd hand limited edition merch?

2 Upvotes

I have a LTT potato sweater from the 2023 april fools video. I have used it, but it's still in good condition. Is there a market for this? It would be a lot more fun to sell it go someone who wants it, but if it isn't, I can just give it to a 2nd hand store...

Discussion Anyone know how well the screwdriver holds up in a salt-water environment?

0 Upvotes

Hey folks. Not planning on submerging my screwdriver, but I originally purchased the black and orange screwdriver when it released and replaced it with the lime green one when colors released (my dad had a snap-on one in almost that exact green growing up, so it’s kind of an Easter egg to me). Great screwdrivers. I’m thinking about leaving my older unused one on the boat, but just the air on a boat is corrosive. Anyone know how well they hold up? And how well does the cap seal?

Thanks!

Tech Question How screwed am I?

0 Upvotes

Hi, I bought a second-hand Eaton 5P650iR without batteries for a really good price. I was thinking I would only replace the batteries and have one in my rack. But the seller recycled the batteries along with the cables and mounting hardware. So now I can’t use a cheap replacement and have to buy a new original battery pack. Is there somewhere I can get just the mounting hardware and cables for the battery?

Tech Question Modmat and the dishwasher

0 Upvotes

I know that some here don't like the YouTuber who sells this product but hoping those people can put that aside and help a user out.

A while back I posted that I was having trouble with my modmat and that simply touching it would leave black residue on my hands.

Since then things have not improved. I tried using dish soap and soaking it and scrubbing the backside of the mat in a warm bath and despite multiple attempts still black residue comes off when touching it.

I am overall very disappointed with my experience and still looking for a way that I might be able to salvage my modmat so I can actually use it.

An opportunity has come up that I could toss the modmat into a dishwasher (someone on the level1techs discord suggested using the washing machine). This sounds absolutely ridiculous but I feel that I am at a loss of alternatives.

So, has anyone used a more intensive cleaning method than soap and warm water? If I was to go ahead with this bizarre idea what temperature can the modmat safely handle? The dishwasher goes from 45 degrees Celsius up to 70 degrees Celsius.

I am also willing to try other reasonable suggestions if anyone has any. Maybe a gerni on the backside of the mat?

This is terrible and, even if personally it doesn't affect me, I am pissed. And you should be as well.

Every week we have some kind of outrage in the community so the plan is to get ahead this time. Let's get over this even before the WAN show. Let's be angry.. proactively.

Chose a topic, what Linus and the team will do to make you angry this time? Get it out, then let's go and touch some grass (kidding lol, gonna watch some video to make me angrier).

Discussion For any future employee of LMG

0 Upvotes

Listen up, future LMG employees (you know who you are).
Please, for the love of God, keep the receipts.

I've watched way too many $5,000 AMD/Intel upgrade videos on LTT, and without fail, Linus always hits them with: "Alright, let's see what you stole from the office" which is immediately followed by the same old "I have a receipt for that!" → "Sure you do" loop, and it’s time to end it!

So here’s the deal.
If any of us ever works at LMG, we keep the receipts.
All of them! From Day 1!

One of us will be the first one who finally breaks this cycle.
When Linus starts the bit, one of US will be the first to drop a box full of receipts on the table and watch him stutter.

(Obviously hide the stuff you actually DID steal from the office beforehand lol)

Edit: This was obviously written in humor.
For anyone getting butt-hurt, relax, it’s just a joke.

Discussion Scrapyard Wars

218 Upvotes

Watching LMG Clips yesterday (Mid-Range Tech Is a Lie), they briefly discussed Scrapyard Wars:

"There's a reason why Scrapyard Wars is not very interesting right now. I agree with not making Scrapyard Wars this year. It's just terrible out there."

I'm sure I'm not alone on this, but these are my favourite videos that they produce. In my opinion, it would be more interesting and challenging now more than ever to do Scrapyard Wars, which is just great content. In fact, if it were my channel, I'd be doing Scrapyard Wars 3 or 4 times a year, minimum. Curious what everyone else thinks about this?

Edit: After reading some good replies, I think 2 a year would be great. With the way tech and the market changes so rapidly it would make sense that way too. Zero per year is super disappointing. No wonder the channel is dropping off.
