My nitpick: Every TV is a smart TV. It wouldn’t be a problem if they didn’t ALL have the slowest processing power, almost regardless of the price. A $1,200 TV should never lag on its own UI. If I want a TV smart, I’ll add whatever smart box to the HDMI 1 port.
I was just like you 5 years ago but I gave up. It's a losing battle. I was hoping the smart TV trend would die like 3d tv did but it seems they're here to stay.
@@ViciousTuna2012 My TV has been crying for several years that it wants to connect to the internet to finish it's setup. Piss off TV, you're never connecting.
Do you one better.. My Odyssey G9 OLED, MONITOR, has wifi and a built in streaming functionality... They are willing to put that data thieving, e-waste trash even on high end MONITORS now...Safe to say it is *never* going online...
@@JustLovett0 the tv manufacturers make money off of the ads and the data they can collect from you so they’ll never stop. There is only one class of displays that don’t do this now, the commercial ones meant for signage, smartboards, and video walls. If you have the extra money to burn look for a used one on Marketplace with an OPS slot
Oh, yeah that sucks. I've got a 3 monitors and a tv connected to my pc, i can never tell what DP cable i should run to my 4k monitor and which ones i have to avoid
@@MrPsychomonkey They aren't talking about being confused what cable is what, in a large cluster of cables in situ, they are worried about the capabilities, and exceeding them, and breaking the cable. Alternatively, grabbing the wrong cable and not being able to power their laptop properly causing a charge to take a long time. This is the problem of the USBC standard, All the cables are the same, but all the capabilities are different. This was (Generally) not a problem when all your different cables had a different plug on every end, basically we have the same problem as we did back then, but now the plugs all look the same, and using them in the wrong application can break the device/the cable. The problem is inherent to thunderbolt and usb4 using the same plug, and then also different capabilities being available, but not on all cables, you might have a cable that can do 90 Watt power, plus video displays/display port, plus multiple streams of thunderbolt data, and then right next to it, have a 20watt power only cable that looks near identical, sometimes if the device is not "Smart" enough, if you plug the 90W cable into your 20W device, you will kill it.....
tech gripe: UI has regressed back to heiroglyphics and none of them are consistent also when a new window opens it yoinks focus away and interrupts typing
This is a big gripe for me with multi screen setups, when I open a game or some other kind of full screen app, and sometimes just a normal desktop app, will yank focus while I'm in the middle of typing on another screen.
@maxrburgess we had word based cascading menus since windows 95. Icons only became the dominant pattern when people decided computers should be used by people finger painting rather than using keyboards or mice. Then they decided we needed to have "style" redesigns every few years making icons more and more abstract so even if you do learn to decipher icons you need to do it again and again purely for fashion.
minor tech gripe: There's no easy, and built-in method in Windows to lock the volume so it can't go past a certain level. This is important to me for my kid's PC. I know, you can buy specific headphones or speakers that are low output, but still. As it stands I found some ancient third party software to lock the volume level, but I feel like that should be able to be done easily within Windows settings.
In general the Windows audio system sucks. I have a very specific setup using virtual channels and whatnot. I also use a KVM to switch between my Desktop and my work laptop. There is a roughly 20% chance that upon switching my audio setup just breaks because Windows just reactivates the monitors audio output and sets it as standard device
You already have a solution but you may want to check out the Peace equalizer/APO Eq. Easy to use and should have what you want. Bonus: Its a Windows-wide equalizer
My biggest tech gripe: moving things to the Settings app from Control Panel. Everything takes way more clicks, and some things, like setting a static IP just don't seem to work, and I still have to dig up the Control Panel to do what I want. "Hey, this has been working great for 30+ years, let's just completely ruin it!"
Gosh I don't mind the side menu because it's somewhat organized, but goodness.... give me a "Run as advanced menu" to customize it some and it would be fine
What gets me is they seemed bound and determined to move to the settings app...BUT DON'T MOVE HALF THE SHIT OVER. Like holy hell any time I need to adjust my audio devices I need to go to the actual control panel, but they keep on burying getting to it more and more.
So next WAN show are we going to get a dive into Honey plz? Little disappointed if you guys knew what they were pulling with the affiliate links couple of years ago and didn't get the word out. It's tech and consumer protection so not exactly off topic and wouldn't be the first time you guys put a brand/company on blast for doing shady things.
1. I saw no proof in the video about honey that Linus knew about this years ago. 2. Linus would be one of the victims in the scam due to a loss of affiliate link commission stolen from them.
@@dillonh321 Then you might want to go to timestamp 13:30 in the video and check again. In March 2022 a user on LTT forums asked if Honey had been dropped. at Timestamp 13:42 MegaLag has a screenshot that he also reads out of the reply posted March 2, 2022 that says... "We ended the partnership with Honey due to the way their service interacted with affiliate links. Essentially, if someone clicked on a affiliate link (For example, one of ours below in the video description on UA-cam), and then if they "use Honey" and search for a deal, Honey will override that tracking link *even if they don't find you a deal. That didn't jive with us, so we ended the partnership..." Not even 2mins further in MegaLag is talking about reaching out to LMG and has a screenshot of the email he got in response. You're not wrong on point 2 though but I never suggested they weren't victims in it.
@@dillonh321 You clearly didn't watch the full video. Tech tips replied and said that they pulled out of the sponsorship program due to how Honey was been ran. Tech tips are SUPPOSED to be a consumer channel and the fact that they hid ( i can only assume) what they had found out because they didn't want to affect future deals with other companies just shows my just how shady tech tips are.
I so hate that YT Music syncs your followed artists as subscribed in UA-cam. Sure I love the music but dont spam my video recommendations with hundreds of artists at all times.
The other way around sucks too. You like a total shitpost (example the mariachi shrimp) and YT music puts it unironically into your next playlist. Separation would be good
@@robertdascoli949 NoKi (the WAN show time stamp guy) said that it is too stressful to immediately create the timestamps when the show is live. It may now take 1 or 2 days for him to do the timestamps over the weekend
As someone who uses KDE connect to mirror notifications from Android to my Linux desktop, I can confirm: your aunt is not going to use this app. I don't even like using the thing lmao
@NCISCherno oh it absolutely is. I'm extremely grateful for the functionality on those rare occasions I need to use it, but I also acknowledge that it's design and setup process would be considered somewhat obtuse to the average, less-tech literate user. Although I've never used it on any platform other than Linux Android, so the process might be smoother elsewhere.
Minor (maybe major tbh) tech gripe: Why isn't there a way to tell windows "hey, I've got my audio devices set the way I want. If you see a new one, I don't care, don't fucking swap to it"
I use headphones, speakers, quest link and virtual desktop, and managing the audio devices/communication devices is horrible. I found the SoundSwitch app to manage those for me.
Tech gripe: after clicking hibernate, you have to wait until your laptop finishes turning off before you close the lid. Closing the lid before the laptop is fully off, interrupts the hibernation process and puts the laptop to sleep. The laptop will remain on sleep (draining the battery) until its empty or you open the laptop to wake up the laptop and you get to resume the hibernation process and turn on your 80 degrees 16% battery, laptop
I think you can work around this by setting "when I close the lid" to "do nothing". Still silly, and might not always work, and does mean you need two clicks to go to sleep before closing it. But in my experience it gives more control which is nice. Also, you can quickly close it for a sec to move and reopen to continue again only moments later.
I have a Mac from work. I like using my mouse vs trackpad for certain tasks - or because I want my wrist to be comfy. MacOS has separate sections in settings for 'Mouse' and 'Trackpad,' but changing scrolling direction in either changes it for both. WHY?!
Tech gripes idea - there's no way in windows GUI to adjust priority for wifi networks. You can use netsh in cmd to set priorities but it also updates and gets overidden when you select a lower priority network, effectively making the last selected network the number 1 priority. The GUI for which saved networks you have already allows you to sort by priority, but there's no way to edit them.
@@igelbofh I hadn't noticed it in win7, but I've also only recently come across the scenarios where I have access to multiple networks in the same area and have a reason to want a priority. It gets super confusing when I can't troubleshoot various things because my firewall blocks ping from a guest network that I connected to on Friday near end of day for some reason and now, Monday morning, instead of being on the privileged network, I'm back on guest. Easy fix when you notice it, but took me ages to realize that was happening when I was switching networks more.
Intel offers Intel Connectivity Performance Suite on their Evo platform devices, ICPS dynamically adjusts using seven metrics because the one with the most "bars of signal" is not always the most responsive or the greatest throughput (and can also combine Wi-Fi access points). Intel's Wi-Fi 7 implementation includes many of these performance enhancements.
Me: Better add both my 2.4 and 5 ghz wifi networks to my laptop as sometimes 2.4 is better than 5. Laptop: Ok got it, only 2.4 Me: No... use whatever is faster. Laptop: OK got it, only use 2.4 Me: That is not what I said, please switch to 5 ghz as I am 10 feet away from the router with direct line of sight. Laptop: Ok, let's see here.... yeah no good there is no 5 ghz only 2.4 Me: What? No it is right there, just look again. Laptop: I don't see anything at all.
Omg this drives me NUTS! My uni campus has two Wi-Fi networks and I am CONSTANTLY switching to the good fast one but that's not available campus wide so I have to manually go and set myself to the slow bad one when I move somewhere and suddenly loose wifi because if I leave auto connect on the slow one it CONSTANTLY connects over the fast one
Tech Gripe: Websites' UI loading one by one, moving already loaded elements/buttons. Sometimes it feels like the button you want is placed specifically where ads show up after (insert unreactable amount of time) Extra minus points if it's a web UI in an app.
Nitpick: windows login screen you need to press a key to get the password box, BUT there is a short period of time from the box appearing to it actually allows you to type anything
Yes, and it doesn't take the key you pressed. Occasionally you even need to Ctrl+alt+delete to get the box to show. I'm Linux you just start typing and it takes every key, much easier
@@dkman123 also on linux, if the loading takes a bit of time and you realise you made a mistake in the password, you can just hit escape and the loading stops instantly, allowing you to re-type the password. On windows, BOY, that's not how it works. You have to wait for the loading to fail, like a million years later.
Tech gripe for iOS: iPhone never switches to the nearest wifi, so if you have multiple wifi points (such as upstairs and downstairs) the phone will simply stop loading anything as it desperately holds onto the oldest most distant connection, requiring a manual reconnect to the nearby wifi points to get any app to load again
The opposite extreme would be my older Android phone that frequently disconnects from the nearby WiFi just to connect to a distant WiFi, reducing speed and battery life.
Holy crap! You just solved a 6 month mystery in my house. My home is a 1957 cinderblock home with plaster walls. Great for hurricanes but awful for wifi. Even with a mesh network across the house my wife's phone still constantly struggles with loading everything. Now I can tell her once again problem from her dumb apple phone.
@@Hughzaa9 works for me. All iOS devices are roaming well between floors. My WIFI APs have a setting called ‚Roaming assistant‘ with a default of -70db for disconnect.
Regarding LAN file sending, LocalSend FOSS works flawlessly on Android, Android TV, MacOS, iOS, Windows, Linux. It's supreme and open source, just have to be on the same network (VLAN) obviously. I have my whole corporate office using it
Tech gripe: UI functionality being removed and/or moved around for no reason. Windows 10, can't individually select the battery or sound icon, it wants to select a group of 3 before letting me near the settings I want. Headphone jack. Never giving that one up.
I think you're thinking of Windows 11 not 10 and I agree, it's stupid, especially having to click the battery icon every time you want to see the battery percentage instead of it just being on the taskbar in the first place.
I'm using Sony phones precisely because of that. Sadly my laptop doesn't have a headphone jack because I couldn't even imagine that anyone would have the audacity to remove it, so I'm stuck with that one for a while.
1:54:00 We had the same issue at my local gym for fitness classes. The policy was if you miss 3 sessions in a row without cancelling, which you could do up to 1h before the session, you'd be banned from pre booking for 6 months. You could still drop in, if there's spaces available, just not pre-book until the cool down expired. Seems like a decent compromise, though 1h might be short for badminton. Cancelling takes zero effort and if you can't go not doing it just makes you a bumhole.
My gripe: Microsoft keeps downloading New Outlook onto my pc even though I've uninstalled it 50 times. It is riddled with ads and imports my data from the stock mail app and calendar WITHOUT my permission and even displays ads as unread emails. I have 1x account with Office 365 personal, and 2x accounts with 365 Pro. I should not have to be held hostage on my own computer
Please also include MS continuously hiding your Ethernet adapter information further and deeper in settings. They just changed it again recently and now it's even harder to find.
I'm looking forward to next weeks wan show. Honey situation needs to be addressed. The fact that LTT knew about the way Honey opperates (maybe not all of the things, but definitely the a big one) and didn't discuss it in the WAN show is extremely disappointing, as I watch WAN to get that kind of information and stay up to date in tech world. This thing is way worse than the previous controversies IMO. I hope there are good reasons for staying quiet about Honey that robs affiliate money, but doesn't even give best codes. I feel like a dedicated video is also necessary.
After having done many games of cards nights the most mind blowing thing Linus has ever said (in my opinion) is about crazy eights, not one person I’ve ever met in the wild knew about this game yet somehow across the pacific Linus knows about the same game I teach people. This truly is one of the most mind blowing things I’ve seen in a video for real like it’s literally nothing I know but too wild for me
At this point unless you are required to use HP printers for some reason, you are someone that has a big investment in HP printers already (e.g. big corporation) or you have access to a ridiculously cheap source of HP ink/toner, you would have to be stupid to buy a HP printer instead of, say, a Canon or Epson or Brother printer.
the only hp I have is the smart tank 5500 . it mimics the shaq epson refillable printer. But I agree somewhat because I really do like epson printers. They are easy to use.
Recently I was shopping for a new laptop, and thanks to LTTs coverage of their printer policies, I remembered to filter all HP products out of the results!
I swapped my Epson EcoTank for my girlfriend's HP Envy Multifunction, because she prints out far more stuff than me for her job... I rue the day that I did that... F*ck HP.
HP was my go-to for years (laptops, desktops, printers, etc.). It wasn't until the last couple of years when they started doing SO many anti-consumer practices with their printers, ink, and other devices that I said "I'm done." I've told my wife we're no longer buying anything HP and we've moved away from all HP products. They may be popular and convenient due to their market presence, but I'm fed up. I actually have an old HP printer that randomly bricked just after cancelling their ridiculous ink subscription (coincidence?) that I'm planning on smashing so I can feel some sense of vindictive joy.
I have Samsung laser printer for few years, and have no complains. Although it's not used much, I never replaced tonner. And I am using it on Linux over USB cable, and that means no weird "driver" apps, so that may be part of why I have good experience.
There are still consequences for bad behavior, but the punishments aren't severe enough for the rich to care, while being TOO severe for the poor, because the "justice" system wants to look like it's doing SOMETHING.
@@fujinshu They might be talking about the people in theaters disrupting everyone else. The general level of respect people have to people they do not interact directly with is appalling.
@@0Rookie0That’s because there are no physical repercussions. Back in the day that type of behavior would have lead to a physical fight. While this isn’t good look at the result of them being removed from society. People behave worse. People need to be “checked” from time to time and it’s not being done anymore.
@@fujinshu some guy just set some NY girl on fire and he's getting a slap on the wrist lol Maybe not idk, probably confused that with another crime I heard about a couple days ago
Really? I right click the time in the bottom right, go into settings and turn off the "Set time automatic" and then I can pick whichever time zone I want. It changes right away with no hassle. Maybe this is an user problem?
@@jvcobREverything is a user error depending on how you look at it. Because for everything you could have known that that doesn't work and used some sort of workaround. But that isn't fair to users imo. Windows often changes random settings that break stuff. Like the W11 24H2 update now requiring SMB signing and deactivating SMBv1. They argued because of safety, but windows doesn't get to decide shit like that. If you are a company you pay someone who knows better and if you are a home user noone is gonna hack into your network and do a man in the middle attack on you NAS. That is just a stupid windows decision once again
KDE connect is genuinely 1 of my fav apps ever, highly recommended. Sends files, clip board, remote control media, send a txt msg from another device via it. I wouldve said ftp or something similar... If ios has an actual file manager these days... Years ago it didnt only 3rd party ones that half functioned... 1 reason why i hated ios 10 years ago 14:10 i actually went over to gestures about 5 years ago and never went "back" 😂
Tech gripe: On mobile Chrome, you can't switch Google accounts to see the history or bookmarks of your other accounts. The only workaround is to also install the Chrome Beta app and log into your other account on Chrome Beta; it goes without saying, but this workaround only works if you only have two accounts you need to switch between. FYI, I use Android; not sure if it is different for iOS users.
huh? I'm confused. I thought you could open Chrome --> 3 dots top right corner --> Settings --> Tap your profile photo --> All other accounts should be below. Also, in the settings Menu there is a "Google Password Manager" option that you can tap. Again once you're in that part of the menu you tap your profile photo to show all the accounts. FYI I'm using a Samsung S22 Ultra
30:50 Firefox has containers and profiles which are two different things. Profiles in firefox are currently very clunky but are scheduled to get an update to make them more usable withing the next few months. Edit: the new profiles have reached minimal viable product status and are getting a tiny rollout starting in January with 0.5% of users getting them for testing purposes. It will be rolled out to more people once it's more complete. Containers on the other hand are pretty nice to use. Basically you can either set a certain tab, or certain websites to always open in a certain container and that container can then have different account logins from other containers. So if you want a different account for different Google services you can make different containers for them. Similarly if you have a work and a personal account you can just use a work container and a personal container etc.
11:40 I think I have an idea why time and language is on the first page: for the same reason that many websites have the language option at the very top. Say that for some reason you are on the wrong language, like if the localization reverted back to English but you only speak polish, or like if your buddy played you a prank and switched your computer to mandarin; you want to absolutely minimize the steps it takes to change back into the correct language because if you are in the wrong one navigating any kind of menu can be hard
@13:30 As a proud owner of a Sony Xperia 1 VI XQ-EC54 (early Christmas present), recently fully updated (Android 14), there is an option called "Side sense" that puts a sort of quick menu (looks like a partial vertical scroll bar) on one or both sides of the screen. *Flicking that bar down acts as a back button.* The position is configurable and I think the apps are too but haven't tested it thoroughly yet. The option to activate/configure it is in "Settings"->"System"->"Gestures"->"Side Sense"
For the no-show to booked session, you could just make it so that the first time they no-show (without cancelling an hour or more before, as a way to avoid the "punishment") they can't use the online booking for a week. The second time they can't use the online booking for 2 weeks, third time, 4 weeks, fourth time, 8 weeks. Then it suddenly becomes very problematic _for them_ to no-show. Doubling the time they can't use the booking system for each infraction. And you could even add in that every x amount of time the "counter" goes down by one, so if someone no-shows once but then don't do that for x amount of time after that then they're back to their next no-show only giving them 1 week of not being able to use the online booking. Oh, and time spent in "booking jail" obviously shouldn't count for that. Might be hard to fully implement, though. Seems the most fair and still punishing system to me.
You can make Windows search functional with a reg edit. I cant remember was the edit is, but iirc it stops the start menus ability to hit the internet. So it defaults to local search. Alternatively, "Everything" is the best search tool
Tech gripe: On windows 11, if you go full screen in an app, it immediately unsnaps the window. UA-cam window scaling also doesn’t work properly at high monitor resolutions and it’s even more infuriating that this issue was temporarily fixed for a month or so before being reverted back for no reason what so ever.
As far as I"m concerned HP already downgrades printer features by making us unable to make adjustments to background color and changes to grey scale instead of black typeface, or selectively remove images and photos from docs before printing them or easily print to half pages, etc. like we used to be able to do to save lots of ink clear back as early as the 90's.
My nitpick: UA-cam changes arrow button functions - if you click on video then up-down = volume left right = skip but if you click on volume the up-down and left-right both adjust volume and click on timeline then they all skip.
Yep! Also when you first open a video page, but haven’t clicked anywhere on the player, up/down will default to skipping the timeline, until you click somewhere on the player, then, as you said, it will do volume. So I have to click on the player every video I watch to get up/down as vol, left/right as skip
6500K is blinding long term on most displays. Warmer light is easier on the eyes. Lots of content is actually made to be viewed with the warmer settings from the start, plus once you get used to it the relative difference on screen isn't even noticeable. Also just makes things look more natural and realistic, imo.
I have the night setting turned on on my phone. It turns down the color temperature at 10 pm on the premise that blue light inhibits getting sleepy enough to sleep. It's pretty striking how it looks different if you see it happening. But if you miss it you never really notice, and even if you see it you acclimatize less than 30 seconds later.
UA-cam music: if you're casting a song to a nest smart speaker, you can't loop it. The loop button lights up in the app, indicating that loop is on, but the speaker will completely ignore you and just play whatever it thinks should come next.
Tech gripe: Windows sound device vs communication device. Why does it even exist?? How many people need those outputs to be separate? Should I be using my headphones for communication and speakers for game sounds? That makes no sense, just add a checkbox to ALWAYS keep device/communication device in-sync.
An extreamly minor nitpick. When I click on a video to play in the UA-cam sidebar, the ad at the top of the page sometimes changes, which shifts the video down or up. This can cause me to click on the wrong video. Also, the recommended videos sometimes change when I return to the page using the back button, which makes it difficult to find the video I wanted to watch.
My smallest, largest Nitpick: When you Ctrl-A to select all in a text field... but the application doesn't have that coded and nothing happens. It's especially bad when this changes between release versions. I'm looking at you, iTunes for Windows.
@@satratic127I use instead of backspace, weirdly. I'm a fast typer so I'd rather Ctrl-A and retype one phrase rather than backspace - but it doesn't always work depending on the application!
The investigation video that exposed this just came out yesterday. Give it a week or two and Linus will either talk about it on wan or make a dedicated video. Larger channels like LTT take time to turn out videos.
My Tech Gripe: On Android with Google Fi, you can't have it all: either sync SMS, Calls, and Voicemail to Messages for Web, or enable RCS on both phone and web. RCS and Call/Voicemail sync won't work together.
Just the fact that privacy settings in Windows 11 resets your scrollbar the the top after pressing a subsection, had me go back to Linux after 4 minutes of first boot. To tweak all privacy settings you have to scroll to your last position for every category. Microsoft really do not want you to use the privacy settings.
@7:30 No, it says it does, but it doesn't actually work. I routinely have to dig recurring emails related to payments out of my spam folder, no matter how many times I've marked them as not spam.
Windows: When logging into a website using a security key, Windows 11 always shows a chooser to pick Smartphone vs. USB key. It defaults to Smartphone, even if you've never ever used that; and the default cannot be changed!
when creating the key in the beginning, like the first time - it will ask if you'd like to use your windows logon pw/pin or usb device. Choose USB, then after it should default to USB
Tech gripe(s): Any website that uses the apple-style product pages that force you to swipe/scroll like crazy to get through the flashy images to get to any real information. Spotify removing the BACK button of all things on their web player... and replacing it with two home buttons inches from each other. Lastly, the lock screen customization on iPhone, the amount of times i've accidentally opened the editor when pulling my phone out of my pocket is ridiculous.
What grinds my gears is on a windows laptop. I plug my thunderbolt cable in to get multiple monitors, keyboard, mouse and webcam and then close the lid of my laptop Windows detects that the laptop is closed and turns off the laptop screen ..... But doesnt turn off the webcam built into the laptop So when i get a video call, it defaults to the laptop webcam resulting in a black video. As far as im aware there isnt a global use this webcam option, so the solution is to go into every webcam program you use and swap over the webcam from the laptop one to the external one
That sounds niche AF. You need the shallow ones first just because straight ones stick out too far. If you have room you can just bend the wire on a straight one if the strain relief is short enough. Deep bent ones imply a very narrow range of insufficiency, and a tiny population in need.
My annoyance: Speakers go to 'sleep' even when PC doesn't and when you play sound they do the little 'boom' and come awake, eventually go asleep again. It's probably even damaging them, I just don't know how to fix it. PreSonus Eris 3.5
I run my monitors through a scarlet interface. For me, the spikes stopped after I installed and used the drivers of the interface. It might work for you as well. It's also betters sound quality
Tech gripe: Reducing the scaling of text size on android doesn't shrink the rest of the UI accordingly. My phone screen is 1440p, large, and I have good eyes. I want to fit more lines of text on the screen. Why does shrinking the text size keep the number of lines the same????? Increasing text size doesn't have this problem.
@jvcobR thanks! it's an all rounder works on steam os (and as a decky loader plugin) and android and is local or over IC with encryption and proxy if needed, also it uses hashes to make secure connections. @LinusTechTips you can use this for your precious switch saves as well and all those legally obtained backups.
24:00 here's one from me, when I open a video from my file explorer then close the video player, the file explorer window is no longer active so hitting the down arrow to select the next video to play is not possible, I have to alt+tab or select it with the mouse first
I think the biggest tech gripe for me is the handoff of documents or large files from phone to computer. I know there are solutions but I wish it was as easy as pressing one button.
It is easy. There are a plethora of different free apps that can solve this for you. I use "Send Anywhere" from time to time. It has never failed, but if you are using Samsung, just use wireless dex or "nearby share" like I said, there are so many different ways you can do this. Good luck and if you need any help just shoot me a pm.
My tech gripe for Win11 is that it doesn't keep all program icons in the bottom right of taskbar as visible. As soon as Spotify, Discord, etc. have an update, I have to go to settings and manually click that program/app to appear on the taskbar, when it's running. Used to be a checkmark on Win10 (maybe earlier versions too, dont remember) "show all" and that's it. Now I have to go to settings every other day....
Minor gripe: Core Isolation (on by default) is incompatible with Hybrid Sleep. Hopefully it's not also incompatible with WSL2 (when it's not running). I wish I could enable Hybrid Sleep to not lose my work after a part outage. Also, Google makes a version of Quick Share for Windows PCs. You can share something between your PC and Android phone using that.
Another gripe; I have duel display* one 4k laptop and a 1080p monitor, and sometimes no idea why, the file explorer on my 1080p monitor will have crazy wrong scaling, the shortcuts on the left are so blown up it’s mainly just icons, notepad has massive font, and it’s never consistent, one file explorer may be massive, but a new instance will be fine
‘Streamed 16 seconds ago’ Wow! Not been so early to a WAN Show before, living in the UK as I do. Waking up at 4:30AM in a blind panic for no reason whatsoever is a helluva thing… guess I’ll just watch the WAN Show then.
Philips tv's not allowing me to bind the aux volume out to the remote or the main volume out drives me crazy... How hard is it to add "volume controls:" to the menu? Had to buy an earc amplifier because of that BS 😕
At 14:17 you still use buttons? It's first thing I disable on my android every time and switch to gesture (swipe from the edge for back, swipe from bottom to home, swipe from bottom and hold to task switch)
This is definitely something that will be a "boomer" thing soon, if it's not already. Convenient gestures, like the back-swipe, are the optimal way to interact with small touch devices.
When my Apple TV is playing media through the tv speakers and my HomePod, the volume button only controls the tv. You have to navigate to control center to change the HomePod volume.
I probably have so many gripes but mine is when you’re trying to uninstall something from the windows start menu, and when pressing uninstall it redirects your to the settings app. Without even directing you to the app. AT LEAST TAKE ME TO THE APP.
If you really want to, you can filter messages from people into a folder so that you don't loose it. copy there email and have it archive it to a folder named however you want. I do that all the time.
This google account thing is so annoying, like I want to add an organization email to my android phone but since the organization uses g suite, I cannot just add the email account to the Gmail app, instead it will add the google account to my phone.
Concerning Laptop sleep issues. Im using Opera on my Surface Laptop (Win 11) and when I leave the browser open and wake the laptop up later it is kinda frozen in the browser and I need to go to task manager to shut it down and start it up again to become functional again. It is an odd behaviour and really annoying.
In programming... Byte = 8 bits Word = 16 bits (2 bytes) Double Word = 32 bits (4 bytes) DWORD is just short for double word, and just means a value which is stored internally as a 32-bit integer.
54:29 would have bought if the ltt logo was not on their. Rhis one looked so fun! But the ltt logo distracts from the rest. It feels like a watermark :(
I believe its because the last time it wasn't closed properly or you closed it while another window was already on top. Im not sure on this though. I just pressed the calc button on mine and it opened right on top of my browser window.
One of my favorite card games to play with the family when I was younger was Pepper. You can play with 2, 3, or 4 people and it's just as fun as Hearts. We played Hearts, Pepper, Cribbage, and a couple other games but Hearts and Pepper were definitely my favorites.
feels like WAN show turned from tech news with some reasonable amount of ads/sponsors in between to a LTTstore infomercial with some tech news in between.
I have a gripe, everytime I right click on a short on UA-cam and open in new tab chromium based browsers it double plays the audio but about half a second difference, the only way it can be fixed is to open it on the current tab.
Windows gripe for me: If you drag a vertical scrollbar's thumb up or down using the left mouse button and your mouse slightly drifts horizontally during the vertical drag (this is very easily done!), then the thumb jumps to its destination (top or bottom) immediately, which I never want it to do. It's infuriating and I never found a way to turn this obnoxious behaviour off. The fix for me was to delete Windows off all my machines and install Linux instead, which doesn't have this maddening, unfixable problem in any of its many desktop UIs. I surely can't be the only one who hates this scrollbar thumb-jumping behaviour (and, no, I don't use the mouse scroll wheel before you ask - I find dragging more precise).
Dragging is more precise but precise is needed on about 1% of scrolls, and you can mousewheel from anywhere in the pane. But yeah, Linux wm's scroll behaves better.
Heres a small gripe, if you highlight a row in excel and then switch to a different window, the row doesn't keep its highlight so its easy to lose your spot

My nitpick: Every TV is a smart TV. It wouldn’t be a problem if they didn’t ALL have the slowest processing power, almost regardless of the price. A $1,200 TV should never lag on its own UI. If I want a TV smart, I’ll add whatever smart box to the HDMI 1 port.
I was just like you 5 years ago but I gave up. It's a losing battle. I was hoping the smart TV trend would die like 3d tv did but it seems they're here to stay.
@@ViciousTuna2012 My TV has been crying for several years that it wants to connect to the internet to finish it's setup. Piss off TV, you're never connecting.
@@ViciousTuna2012Consumers don’t care about the speed of the device until it gets that bad, and even then, their laziness wins out at the end.
Do you one better.. My Odyssey G9 OLED, MONITOR, has wifi and a built in streaming functionality... They are willing to put that data thieving, e-waste trash even on high end MONITORS now...Safe to say it is *never* going online...
@@JustLovett0 the tv manufacturers make money off of the ads and the data they can collect from you so they’ll never stop.
There is only one class of displays that don’t do this now, the commercial ones meant for signage, smartboards, and video walls.
If you have the extra money to burn look for a used one on Marketplace with an OPS slot
Gripe: tapping the previewed comment (which seems to be picked based on timestamp) in the UA-cam mobile app doesn't take you to that comment.

This drives me insane
This gets me OFTEN. Anecdotally I used to have good luck finding these comments easier under "Newest" but recently this no longer works for me
THIS! I swear youtube is a bunch a monkes at typewriters writing is Cobalt
How the vast majority of cables don't have their speeds, gen, or even capabilities somewhere on the cable is a frustration I have with tech
Oh, yeah that sucks. I've got a 3 monitors and a tv connected to my pc, i can never tell what DP cable i should run to my 4k monitor and which ones i have to avoid
RGB cables ? A button on it turns on and sets a RGB colour led on both ends?
And some cables dont even say what brand they are! Its impossible to know what device it came with
@@MrPsychomonkey They aren't talking about being confused what cable is what, in a large cluster of cables in situ, they are worried about the capabilities, and exceeding them, and breaking the cable.
Alternatively, grabbing the wrong cable and not being able to power their laptop properly causing a charge to take a long time.
This is the problem of the USBC standard, All the cables are the same, but all the capabilities are different.
This was (Generally) not a problem when all your different cables had a different plug on every end, basically we have the same problem as we did back then, but now the plugs all look the same, and using them in the wrong application can break the device/the cable.
The problem is inherent to thunderbolt and usb4 using the same plug, and then also different capabilities being available, but not on all cables, you might have a cable that can do 90 Watt power, plus video displays/display port, plus multiple streams of thunderbolt data, and then right next to it, have a 20watt power only cable that looks near identical, sometimes if the device is not "Smart" enough, if you plug the 90W cable into your 20W device, you will kill it.....
tech gripe: UI has regressed back to heiroglyphics and none of them are consistent
also when a new window opens it yoinks focus away and interrupts typing
I think a search combined with tooltips mostly solves this but that isn't everywhere
@maxrburgess what's wrong with having words? Or clear icons that that don't require a major in interpretive dance to decipher
This is a big gripe for me with multi screen setups, when I open a game or some other kind of full screen app, and sometimes just a normal desktop app, will yank focus while I'm in the middle of typing on another screen.
@@zyeborm Icons are more compact, sometimes compactness is better, provided you know what they mean.
@maxrburgess we had word based cascading menus since windows 95.
Icons only became the dominant pattern when people decided computers should be used by people finger painting rather than using keyboards or mice.
Then they decided we needed to have "style" redesigns every few years making icons more and more abstract so even if you do learn to decipher icons you need to do it again and again purely for fashion.
minor tech gripe: There's no easy, and built-in method in Windows to lock the volume so it can't go past a certain level. This is important to me for my kid's PC. I know, you can buy specific headphones or speakers that are low output, but still. As it stands I found some ancient third party software to lock the volume level, but I feel like that should be able to be done easily within Windows settings.
And Windows 11 looooooves to resize windows when waking up from hibernation instead of leaving windows neatly snapped.
@@handlemoniumthat's poor relevant to this comment
In general the Windows audio system sucks. I have a very specific setup using virtual channels and whatnot. I also use a KVM to switch between my Desktop and my work laptop. There is a roughly 20% chance that upon switching my audio setup just breaks because Windows just reactivates the monitors audio output and sets it as standard device
My realtek app has that at least!
You already have a solution but you may want to check out the Peace equalizer/APO Eq. Easy to use and should have what you want. Bonus: Its a Windows-wide equalizer
My biggest tech gripe: moving things to the Settings app from Control Panel. Everything takes way more clicks, and some things, like setting a static IP just don't seem to work, and I still have to dig up the Control Panel to do what I want. "Hey, this has been working great for 30+ years, let's just completely ruin it!"
Gosh I don't mind the side menu because it's somewhat organized, but goodness.... give me a "Run as advanced menu" to customize it some and it would be fine
What gets me is they seemed bound and determined to move to the settings app...BUT DON'T MOVE HALF THE SHIT OVER. Like holy hell any time I need to adjust my audio devices I need to go to the actual control panel, but they keep on burying getting to it more and more.
So next WAN show are we going to get a dive into Honey plz? Little disappointed if you guys knew what they were pulling with the affiliate links couple of years ago and didn't get the word out. It's tech and consumer protection so not exactly off topic and wouldn't be the first time you guys put a brand/company on blast for doing shady things.
1. I saw no proof in the video about honey that Linus knew about this years ago.
2. Linus would be one of the victims in the scam due to a loss of affiliate link commission stolen from them.
@@dillonh321 Then you might want to go to timestamp 13:30 in the video and check again. In March 2022 a user on LTT forums asked if Honey had been dropped. at Timestamp 13:42 MegaLag has a screenshot that he also reads out of the reply posted March 2, 2022 that says...
"We ended the partnership with Honey due to the way their service interacted with affiliate links. Essentially, if someone clicked on a affiliate link (For example, one of ours below in the video description on UA-cam), and then if they "use Honey" and search for a deal, Honey will override that tracking link *even if they don't find you a deal.
That didn't jive with us, so we ended the partnership..."
Not even 2mins further in MegaLag is talking about reaching out to LMG and has a screenshot of the email he got in response.
You're not wrong on point 2 though but I never suggested they weren't victims in it.
@@dillonh321 !. its pretty comprehensively covered, the allegation holds up my g.
@@dillonh321 You clearly didn't watch the full video. Tech tips replied and said that they pulled out of the sponsorship program due to how Honey was been ran.
Tech tips are SUPPOSED to be a consumer channel and the fact that they hid ( i can only assume) what they had found out because they didn't want to affect future deals with other companies just shows my just how shady tech tips are.
I so hate that YT Music syncs your followed artists as subscribed in UA-cam. Sure I love the music but dont spam my video recommendations with hundreds of artists at all times.
Their contribution to the Great Enshitification.
Test...
I use UA-cam Music with a secondary youtube account within the same email so I can avoid this mixed behaviour crap.
The other way around sucks too. You like a total shitpost (example the mariachi shrimp) and YT music puts it unironically into your next playlist. Separation would be good
You could make a different account/ profile to use for UA-cam to separate them.
While a bit tedious, it should work.

Hear me out: Linus tucking in a laptop and the title could be "why won't you go to sleep?"
Minor (maybe major tbh) tech gripe: Why isn't there a way to tell windows "hey, I've got my audio devices set the way I want. If you see a new one, I don't care, don't fucking swap to it"
Managing audio devices on Windows, especially 11, is just pain.
Hmm on W11 mine does stay locked to a device even if not connected. I have no idea how I made it do that though.
I use headphones, speakers, quest link and virtual desktop, and managing the audio devices/communication devices is horrible. I found the SoundSwitch app to manage those for me.
Tech gripe: after clicking hibernate, you have to wait until your laptop finishes turning off before you close the lid. Closing the lid before the laptop is fully off, interrupts the hibernation process and puts the laptop to sleep. The laptop will remain on sleep (draining the battery) until its empty or you open the laptop to wake up the laptop and you get to resume the hibernation process and turn on your 80 degrees 16% battery, laptop
I think you can work around this by setting "when I close the lid" to "do nothing". Still silly, and might not always work, and does mean you need two clicks to go to sleep before closing it. But in my experience it gives more control which is nice. Also, you can quickly close it for a sec to move and reopen to continue again only moments later.
I have a Mac from work. I like using my mouse vs trackpad for certain tasks - or because I want my wrist to be comfy. MacOS has separate sections in settings for 'Mouse' and 'Trackpad,' but changing scrolling direction in either changes it for both. WHY?!
Use LinearMouse. Changed my life but yeah, this should be an option
Ive always hated this so much
Same here. I have to use a program to change it manually.
I feel you. I use "UnnaturalScrollWheels" program to fix that. Click one button and forget about it, enjoy your mac.
Use mos (free) for MacOS
Tech gripes idea - there's no way in windows GUI to adjust priority for wifi networks. You can use netsh in cmd to set priorities but it also updates and gets overidden when you select a lower priority network, effectively making the last selected network the number 1 priority. The GUI for which saved networks you have already allows you to sort by priority, but there's no way to edit them.
That's weird. Windows 7 GUI had priority setup, well hidden but it was there
@@igelbofh I hadn't noticed it in win7, but I've also only recently come across the scenarios where I have access to multiple networks in the same area and have a reason to want a priority. It gets super confusing when I can't troubleshoot various things because my firewall blocks ping from a guest network that I connected to on Friday near end of day for some reason and now, Monday morning, instead of being on the privileged network, I'm back on guest. Easy fix when you notice it, but took me ages to realize that was happening when I was switching networks more.
Intel offers Intel Connectivity Performance Suite on their Evo platform devices, ICPS dynamically adjusts using seven metrics because the one with the most "bars of signal" is not always the most responsive or the greatest throughput (and can also combine Wi-Fi access points). Intel's Wi-Fi 7 implementation includes many of these performance enhancements.
Me: Better add both my 2.4 and 5 ghz wifi networks to my laptop as sometimes 2.4 is better than 5.
Laptop: Ok got it, only 2.4
Me: No... use whatever is faster.
Laptop: OK got it, only use 2.4
Me: That is not what I said, please switch to 5 ghz as I am 10 feet away from the router with direct line of sight.
Laptop: Ok, let's see here.... yeah no good there is no 5 ghz only 2.4
Me: What? No it is right there, just look again.
Laptop: I don't see anything at all.
Omg this drives me NUTS! My uni campus has two Wi-Fi networks and I am CONSTANTLY switching to the good fast one but that's not available campus wide so I have to manually go and set myself to the slow bad one when I move somewhere and suddenly loose wifi because if I leave auto connect on the slow one it CONSTANTLY connects over the fast one
Care to comment on honey browser extension?
This came out before the mega lab video came out. Expect it next week.
Tech Gripe: Websites' UI loading one by one, moving already loaded elements/buttons.
Sometimes it feels like the button you want is placed specifically where ads show up after (insert unreactable amount of time)
Extra minus points if it's a web UI in an app.
OMG, I second this one
Something similar I hate: assets/images only loads when the tab is in focus. I have bad internet so could be just me...
100% There are sites that do this intentionally, another reason you need to adblock these days. The internet is near unusable without one.
I could make a whole video about everything wrong with websites these days. So many dark patterns…
Nitpick: windows login screen you need to press a key to get the password box, BUT there is a short period of time from the box appearing to it actually allows you to type anything
Yes, and it doesn't take the key you pressed. Occasionally you even need to Ctrl+alt+delete to get the box to show. I'm Linux you just start typing and it takes every key, much easier
@@dkman123 also on linux, if the loading takes a bit of time and you realise you made a mistake in the password, you can just hit escape and the loading stops instantly, allowing you to re-type the password.
On windows, BOY, that's not how it works. You have to wait for the loading to fail, like a million years later.

Tech gripe for iOS:
iPhone never switches to the nearest wifi, so if you have multiple wifi points (such as upstairs and downstairs) the phone will simply stop loading anything as it desperately holds onto the oldest most distant connection, requiring a manual reconnect to the nearby wifi points to get any app to load again
I’m an IT Specialist, and we have this issue with Apple devices ALL the time. MacBooks, iPads, and iPhones are all notoriously bad sticky clients.
The opposite extreme would be my older Android phone that frequently disconnects from the nearby WiFi just to connect to a distant WiFi, reducing speed and battery life.
Holy crap! You just solved a 6 month mystery in my house. My home is a 1957 cinderblock home with plaster walls. Great for hurricanes but awful for wifi. Even with a mesh network across the house my wife's phone still constantly struggles with loading everything. Now I can tell her once again problem from her dumb apple phone.
In my experience Android phones always had the issue as well lol
@@Hughzaa9 works for me. All iOS devices are roaming well between floors. My WIFI APs have a setting called ‚Roaming assistant‘ with a default of -70db for disconnect.
Regarding LAN file sending, LocalSend FOSS works flawlessly on Android, Android TV, MacOS, iOS, Windows, Linux. It's supreme and open source, just have to be on the same network (VLAN) obviously. I have my whole corporate office using it

Tech gripe: UI functionality being removed and/or moved around for no reason. Windows 10, can't individually select the battery or sound icon, it wants to select a group of 3 before letting me near the settings I want.
Headphone jack. Never giving that one up.
@@NCISCherno They are separate in Windows 10
I think you're thinking of Windows 11 not 10 and I agree, it's stupid, especially having to click the battery icon every time you want to see the battery percentage instead of it just being on the taskbar in the first place.
@@NCISCherno On windows 11 whichever one your mouse is actually hovering over is the one that gets interacted with
You’re describing Win11 and a lot of versions of Linux.
I'm using Sony phones precisely because of that. Sadly my laptop doesn't have a headphone jack because I couldn't even imagine that anyone would have the audacity to remove it, so I'm stuck with that one for a while.
1:54:00 We had the same issue at my local gym for fitness classes. The policy was if you miss 3 sessions in a row without cancelling, which you could do up to 1h before the session, you'd be banned from pre booking for 6 months. You could still drop in, if there's spaces available, just not pre-book until the cool down expired. Seems like a decent compromise, though 1h might be short for badminton. Cancelling takes zero effort and if you can't go not doing it just makes you a bumhole.
My gripe: Microsoft keeps downloading New Outlook onto my pc even though I've uninstalled it 50 times. It is riddled with ads and imports my data from the stock mail app and calendar WITHOUT my permission and even displays ads as unread emails. I have 1x account with Office 365 personal, and 2x accounts with 365 Pro. I should not have to be held hostage on my own computer
Please also include MS continuously hiding your Ethernet adapter information further and deeper in settings. They just changed it again recently and now it's even harder to find.
I'm looking forward to next weeks wan show. Honey situation needs to be addressed. The fact that LTT knew about the way Honey opperates (maybe not all of the things, but definitely the a big one) and didn't discuss it in the WAN show is extremely disappointing, as I watch WAN to get that kind of information and stay up to date in tech world. This thing is way worse than the previous controversies IMO. I hope there are good reasons for staying quiet about Honey that robs affiliate money, but doesn't even give best codes.

At this point unless you are required to use HP printers for some reason, you are someone that has a big investment in HP printers already (e.g. big corporation) or you have access to a ridiculously cheap source of HP ink/toner, you would have to be stupid to buy a HP printer instead of, say, a Canon or Epson or Brother printer.
the only hp I have is the smart tank 5500 . it mimics the shaq epson refillable printer. But I agree somewhat because I really do like epson printers. They are easy to use.
Recently I was shopping for a new laptop, and thanks to LTTs coverage of their printer policies, I remembered to filter all HP products out of the results!
I swapped my Epson EcoTank for my girlfriend's HP Envy Multifunction, because she prints out far more stuff than me for her job... I rue the day that I did that... F*ck HP.
HP was my go-to for years (laptops, desktops, printers, etc.). It wasn't until the last couple of years when they started doing SO many anti-consumer practices with their printers, ink, and other devices that I said "I'm done." I've told my wife we're no longer buying anything HP and we've moved away from all HP products. They may be popular and convenient due to their market presence, but I'm fed up. I actually have an old HP printer that randomly bricked just after cancelling their ridiculous ink subscription (coincidence?) that I'm planning on smashing so I can feel some sense of vindictive joy.
I have Samsung laser printer for few years, and have no complains. Although it's not used much, I never replaced tonner.
And I am using it on Linux over USB cable, and that means no weird "driver" apps, so that may be part of why I have good experience.
There are no longer consequences for bad behaviour - and it's slowly destroying society.

I just use powershell nowadays. I totally forgot how to do that in GUI and I'm not going to attempt to find it, provided it's not even greyed out.
Really? I right click the time in the bottom right, go into settings and turn off the "Set time automatic" and then I can pick whichever time zone I want.
It changes right away with no hassle. Maybe this is an user problem?
@@Zefar77 to be blunt, honest and downright brutal - alot of these issues are User Error/Ignorance/Complaining
@@jvcobREverything is a user error depending on how you look at it. Because for everything you could have known that that doesn't work and used some sort of workaround. But that isn't fair to users imo. Windows often changes random settings that break stuff. Like the W11 24H2 update now requiring SMB signing and deactivating SMBv1. They argued because of safety, but windows doesn't get to decide shit like that. If you are a company you pay someone who knows better and if you are a home user noone is gonna hack into your network and do a man in the middle attack on you NAS. That is just a stupid windows decision once again

Tech gripe: On mobile Chrome, you can't switch Google accounts to see the history or bookmarks of your other accounts. The only workaround is to also install the Chrome Beta app and log into your other account on Chrome Beta; it goes without saying, but this workaround only works if you only have two accounts you need to switch between. FYI, I use Android; not sure if it is different for iOS users.
This is so so annoying. I want to switch accounts so I get the history for the other and it just looks at me like I'm asking for the impossible
huh? I'm confused. I thought you could open Chrome --> 3 dots top right corner --> Settings --> Tap your profile photo --> All other accounts should be below. Also, in the settings Menu there is a "Google Password Manager" option that you can tap. Again once you're in that part of the menu you tap your profile photo to show all the accounts. FYI I'm using a Samsung S22 Ultra
@@jvcobR Do you know how profiles work in the desktop version of Chrome? Yh, that's what we want.
30:50 Firefox has containers and profiles which are two different things.
Profiles in firefox are currently very clunky but are scheduled to get an update to make them more usable withing the next few months.
Edit: the new profiles have reached minimal viable product status and are getting a tiny rollout starting in January with 0.5% of users getting them for testing purposes. It will be rolled out to more people once it's more complete.
Containers on the other hand are pretty nice to use. Basically you can either set a certain tab, or certain websites to always open in a certain container and that container can then have different account logins from other containers.
So if you want a different account for different Google services you can make different containers for them.
Similarly if you have a work and a personal account you can just use a work container and a personal container etc.
I switched to Firefox because Google doesn't think this is an important feature
The entire reason I use Firefox is for it's Containers. They are flipping amazing.
Firefox meanwhile has the most garbage syncing

11:40 I think I have an idea why time and language is on the first page: for the same reason that many websites have the language option at the very top. Say that for some reason you are on the wrong language, like if the localization reverted back to English but you only speak polish, or like if your buddy played you a prank and switched your computer to mandarin; you want to absolutely minimize the steps it takes to change back into the correct language because if you are in the wrong one navigating any kind of menu can be hard
Plausible. Also possibly because all other settings can be categorised while remaining intuitive
@13:30 As a proud owner of a Sony Xperia 1 VI XQ-EC54 (early Christmas present), recently fully updated (Android 14), there is an option called "Side sense" that puts a sort of quick menu (looks like a partial vertical scroll bar) on one or both sides of the screen.
*Flicking that bar down acts as a back button.*
The position is configurable and I think the apps are too but haven't tested it thoroughly yet. The option to activate/configure it is in "Settings"->"System"->"Gestures"->"Side Sense"
For the no-show to booked session, you could just make it so that the first time they no-show (without cancelling an hour or more before, as a way to avoid the "punishment") they can't use the online booking for a week. The second time they can't use the online booking for 2 weeks, third time, 4 weeks, fourth time, 8 weeks. Then it suddenly becomes very problematic _for them_ to no-show. Doubling the time they can't use the booking system for each infraction.
And you could even add in that every x amount of time the "counter" goes down by one, so if someone no-shows once but then don't do that for x amount of time after that then they're back to their next no-show only giving them 1 week of not being able to use the online booking. Oh, and time spent in "booking jail" obviously shouldn't count for that. Might be hard to fully implement, though.
Seems the most fair and still punishing system to me.
You can make Windows search functional with a reg edit. I cant remember was the edit is, but iirc it stops the start menus ability to hit the internet. So it defaults to local search. Alternatively, "Everything" is the best search tool
Honey 🍯 video when ????
Tech gripe: On windows 11, if you go full screen in an app, it immediately unsnaps the window. UA-cam window scaling also doesn’t work properly at high monitor resolutions and it’s even more infuriating that this issue was temporarily fixed for a month or so before being reverted back for no reason what so ever.
As far as I"m concerned HP already downgrades printer features by making us unable to make adjustments to background color and changes to grey scale instead of black typeface, or selectively remove images and photos from docs before printing them or easily print to half pages, etc. like we used to be able to do to save lots of ink clear back as early as the 90's.
Tailscale taildrop is really nice for sharing files. The devices doesn't even need to be on the same network.
Thanks for the comment, I didn’t know about this feature. Tailscale is my finding of the year and now it’s even more useful.
My nitpick: UA-cam changes arrow button functions - if you click on video then up-down = volume left right = skip but if you click on volume the up-down and left-right both adjust volume and click on timeline then they all skip.
Yep! Also when you first open a video page, but haven’t clicked anywhere on the player, up/down will default to skipping the timeline, until you click somewhere on the player, then, as you said, it will do volume. So I have to click on the player every video I watch to get up/down as vol, left/right as skip
Oh 100% they should just be locked, left and right for video transport and up and down to control volume, 100% of the time.
FORSURE!
Listening to how you believe employees should be treated makes me so jealous. I wish all employers would treat people like valuable humans.
6500K is blinding long term on most displays. Warmer light is easier on the eyes. Lots of content is actually made to be viewed with the warmer settings from the start, plus once you get used to it the relative difference on screen isn't even noticeable. Also just makes things look more natural and realistic, imo.
I have the night setting turned on on my phone. It turns down the color temperature at 10 pm on the premise that blue light inhibits getting sleepy enough to sleep. It's pretty striking how it looks different if you see it happening. But if you miss it you never really notice, and even if you see it you acclimatize less than 30 seconds later.

UA-cam music: if you're casting a song to a nest smart speaker, you can't loop it. The loop button lights up in the app, indicating that loop is on, but the speaker will completely ignore you and just play whatever it thinks should come next.
31:48 Firefox has container tabs which are easier if you're only one user, it's like a tab group but separate data and sandboxed from everything else.
Tech gripe: Windows sound device vs communication device. Why does it even exist?? How many people need those outputs to be separate? Should I be using my headphones for communication and speakers for game sounds? That makes no sense, just add a checkbox to ALWAYS keep device/communication device in-sync.
An extreamly minor nitpick. When I click on a video to play in the UA-cam sidebar, the ad at the top of the page sometimes changes, which shifts the video down or up. This can cause me to click on the wrong video. Also, the recommended videos sometimes change when I return to the page using the back button, which makes it difficult to find the video I wanted to watch.
open the other video you want to watch in another window, that works

@7:30 No, it says it does, but it doesn't actually work. I routinely have to dig recurring emails related to payments out of my spam folder, no matter how many times I've marked them as not spam.
Windows: When logging into a website using a security key, Windows 11 always shows a chooser to pick Smartphone vs. USB key. It defaults to Smartphone, even if you've never ever used that; and the default cannot be changed!
when creating the key in the beginning, like the first time - it will ask if you'd like to use your windows logon pw/pin or usb device. Choose USB, then after it should default to USB
@jvcobR I am not using Windows Hello (it's a desktop w/o a webcam). Perhaps MS didn't test that, and that's why this is clunky?
Tech gripe(s): Any website that uses the apple-style product pages that force you to swipe/scroll like crazy to get through the flashy images to get to any real information. Spotify removing the BACK button of all things on their web player... and replacing it with two home buttons inches from each other. Lastly, the lock screen customization on iPhone, the amount of times i've accidentally opened the editor when pulling my phone out of my pocket is ridiculous.
What grinds my gears is on a windows laptop. I plug my thunderbolt cable in to get multiple monitors, keyboard, mouse and webcam and then close the lid of my laptop
Windows detects that the laptop is closed and turns off the laptop screen ..... But doesnt turn off the webcam built into the laptop
So when i get a video call, it defaults to the laptop webcam resulting in a black video.
As far as im aware there isnt a global use this webcam option, so the solution is to go into every webcam program you use and swap over the webcam from the laptop one to the external one
Adding a "pecking order" would make a lot of sense in multiple areas. Audio output, camera input, Wi-Fi network, to name a few

Do you plan on offering the cables with 90° ends on either or both ends that will also be deep enough to go through cases without bottoming out.
That sounds niche AF. You need the shallow ones first just because straight ones stick out too far. If you have room you can just bend the wire on a straight one if the strain relief is short enough. Deep bent ones imply a very narrow range of insufficiency, and a tiny population in need.
My annoyance: Speakers go to 'sleep' even when PC doesn't and when you play sound they do the little 'boom' and come awake, eventually go asleep again. It's probably even damaging them, I just don't know how to fix it. PreSonus Eris 3.5
I run my monitors through a scarlet interface. For me, the spikes stopped after I installed and used the drivers of the interface. It might work for you as well. It's also betters sound quality

Reducing the scaling of text size on android doesn't shrink the rest of the UI accordingly. My phone screen is 1440p, large, and I have good eyes. I want to fit more lines of text on the screen.

It has never failed, but if you are using Samsung, just use wireless dex or "nearby share" like I said, there are so many different ways you can do this. Good luck and if you need any help just shoot me a pm.
My tech gripe for Win11 is that it doesn't keep all program icons in the bottom right of taskbar as visible. As soon as Spotify, Discord, etc. have an update, I have to go to settings and manually click that program/app to appear on the taskbar, when it's running.
Used to be a checkmark on Win10 (maybe earlier versions too, dont remember) "show all" and that's it.
Now I have to go to settings every other day....

Convenient gestures, like the back-swipe, are the optimal way to interact with small touch devices.
When my Apple TV is playing media through the tv speakers and my HomePod, the volume button only controls the tv. You have to navigate to control center to change the HomePod volume.
I probably have so many gripes but mine is when you’re trying to uninstall something from the windows start menu, and when pressing uninstall it redirects your to the settings app. Without even directing you to the app. AT LEAST TAKE ME TO THE APP.

Windows gripe for me: If you drag a vertical scrollbar's thumb up or down using the left mouse button and your mouse slightly drifts horizontally during the vertical drag (this is very easily done!), then the thumb jumps to its destination (top or bottom) immediately, which I never want it to do. It's infuriating and I never found a way to turn this obnoxious behaviour off.
The fix for me was to delete Windows off all my machines and install Linux instead, which doesn't have this maddening, unfixable problem in any of its many desktop UIs. I surely can't be the only one who hates this scrollbar thumb-jumping behaviour (and, no, I don't use the mouse scroll wheel before you ask - I find dragging more precise).
Dragging is more precise but precise is needed on about 1% of scrolls, and you can mousewheel from anywhere in the pane. But yeah, Linux wm's scroll behaves better.
