  • That Canadian tech guy. The channel has some good content, but that whole drama with the ex-employees, even without knowing the whole story, stinks of a toxic workplace, and I don’t want to support that. Plenty of other good tech-related content that I still follow - Level One Techs, Gamers Nexus, Hardware Canucks, Hardware Unboxed, JayzTwoCents.

    Fro Knows Photo - used to have some good content years ago when I watched it, but started becoming more and more annoying, with clickbait thumbnails on almost every video.

    SMoD - a good source for getting to know new/unknown bands in the doom/stoner/sludge metal realms, but unsubbed after the scandal.


  • Besides the water cooling that’s already mentioned, those could be used for example for routing an internal device out and into the I/O of the motherboard. An example would be some fan/RGB controllers that are meant to be somewhere inside the case, but are terminated with a standard USB A plug (and very few motherboards have that as an internal connector). Another example is a mini display that you could put inside the case that would need to interface with the GPU (so you’d need to route a DP or HDMI cable out of the case and into the back of the GPU).

















  • That’s just the opposite of how tipping is supposed to work. If I’m happy with the service, I’ll tip (and I’m far, far from the US - in a place where you don’t get frowned upon if you don’t tip) - and by “happy” I don’t even mean something extraordinary - but I can’t know if I will be happy in advance. Moreover I’d prefer tipping in cash as opposed to through an app - this way I know the money can go directly in the worker’s pocket, not in the company’s.
