First of all (seemingly going out of their way to) use an old version of cinebench rhat isn’t optimised for arm, and then showing tomb raider to benchmark, a game which relies on Rosetta

Original Title: Microsoft has been pushing full screen pop up ads within Windows 10 telling users to buy new computers. This popup does not care what task you're doing. This one specifically ruined a boss fight, cost me 30 minutes of my time, and in game resources. Does this make Windows effectively malware?

I know he’s shown it in the past but I can’t find it. Seeing the reviews of b580 is tempting me to get a decent gpu again and replace my ancient gtx980. At 250 it seems like a no brainer to me. Only issue is that it’d want to connect my tv and game on it as I don’t spend time at my desk anymore unless its for work. The tv is 2 stories down approx 6-8m away

A DNA testing website has given police unfettered access to their database, leading to one woman's search for her DNA ancestry causing her GRANDMA to be arrested on a cold case.

As Linus has said multiple times on WAN show, mainly because his mom did one of these services, these are open to abuse by third parties gaining access.

So is this abuse? Or justice?

Just watching "Why is WAN late?" and the clip showing Linus' Taycan next to Dan's JDM Shoe is hilarious to me.

I noticed today that the titles have gone from being 'clicky', to straight up lies that get clarified in the first sentence.

In the 'Upgrading my big brother's setup' video, the first line Linus says is that he's not actually his brother but etc.

In the 'This is a weird shape for a phone' video on ShortCircuit, Linus starts the video with 'It's not actually a phone but etc'.

I'm not a fan of simply lying in the title and clarifying in the first sentence just to get that initial click. It feels like a pure bait and switch and is disrespectful to the viewer.

I didn't expect this from LMG, but it's not clear why it's going in this direction. It must be tough on YouTube if the only way to keep the views up is to lie in the title.
