I am looking for a video where Linus is beaming ethernet a decent distance with small optical transceivers. AI tells me it was called “Can you beam Ethernet across the room?” but I can't find it or the product anywhere. does anyone know where I can find the video?

Edit: I now believe that I may be mixing it up with this (PeakDo Wireless HDMI) video and hallucinated an ethernet version of it that looked like a different device. Thanks for all the help!

Stuff like this has been covered on the WAN Show before. A guy named Roberto Viola made an app to pull exercise data from several different brands of exercise equipment so you can use them with services like Zwift and Peloton.

Echelon just pushed a firmware update to all their equipment that requires you to log into their servers to use the equipment at all and locking out an third party apps. This change turns a lot of bikes into E-Waste. There is currently no way to reverse the update.

So I just watched Linus’s new video, “Fixing My Employee’s PC.” The video is about one of his employee’s PCs constantly lagging and stuttering during games — it was really bad while playing. At the end, the issue turned out to be that XMP wasn’t enabled. The RAM was running at 2133MHz, and after enabling XMP, it jumped to 3200MHz and fixed the problem.

I know that enabling XMP makes memory run faster. (But i don't have any sturrinng of lags at all) I’ve been running my RAM at 2133MHz for about 2 years now. I'm on an AM4 system (Ryzen 7 3700X) with 44GB of DDR4 RAM.

The reason I’ve been running at 2133MHz is because I started with just one 8GB stick of 2666MHz RAM. Over the next 1–2 years, I gradually added more RAM.

So right now my setup has 2x 16GB sticks at 2666MHz 1x 8GB stick at 2666MHz 1x 4GB stick at 2400MHz

I know the frequencies don’t perfectly match — all of these were bought cheaply from Facebook Marketplace — but since I use Adobe After Effects a lot, my main goal was having more RAM to allocate, not higher speed. That’s why I didn’t care much about the bus speed.

Now I’m wondering: would enabling XMP and removing the 4GB stick actually make a big difference? Or would the speed improvement only be noticeable if I upgraded everything to something like 3200MHz?

I don’t play games at all — this PC is mostly for Adobe apps like After Effects.

Perhaps this could be discussed in The Wan Show?

Franlab held a livestream this Sunday commemorating the Apolo 11 anniversary and within less than an hour the video was removed altogether because it got several copyright claims. She showed a few old NASA films from her personal archive that contain public-domain music, but Sony and others have used excerpts from those films in commercial works and their automated systems file claims as if the IP was theirs. Some times, artists have used samples in their recordings, which then means posting the original piece will be flagged as copyright infringement. As usual, there's very little hope an appeal will revert that because it'll likely never been seen by a human either at Sony or at YouTube.

This is not the first time it has happened, Fran has needed to mute music in old films in the public domain posted to her channel, the kind that would be shown at schools and whatnot, because they keep being detected as having copyrighted material. Companies are effectively claiming ownership over compositions they do not own just because they used it once. Even parts of historical public speeches have led to claims this way, it's like a corporation reserves itself the right to block anyone from posting parts of I Have a Dream or the like because they used it first.

YouTube's copyright system being broken and abused is not at all new, but this is a side of it that rarely gets brought up.
