Hidden-Connector Motherboards Explained
I like the name! So many products are named after mythical-ish things, so it fits well.
0:37 genshin players i have a theory
if pentium is a cooking ingredient like sodium, then celeron is supposed to be like celery?
3:13 You forget to mention that if Intel would take continue the name we would have Hexium, Heptium and the Pentium 4 would be the Octium. Core would be Enneum and the current gen would be Icosidium and the next Icositrium,, etcetera.
Thanks for Pentium meaning
Fun fact: "bug" is also used in aviation to refer to dials on the mode control panel, example: heading bug (meaning the dial used to select a heading/direction you want to go). I'm not sure if it used officially or only colloquially
1:24 Except for the fact that Wi-Fi uses the same Electromagnetic Spectrum (aka light), just not the visible part
bro really gonna take yellow spot in gpu market
1:04 got me dying
Im sure bugs have been a bother for some time and the use of the term in broader ways seems quite natural an extension. Im sure people were bugged by them long before they bothered our chipsets
Because you use a net to catch the ether. Duh!
The word "ether": exists and means "something immaterial" LTT writing staff: dumb word🗿 Just FYI - in some languages "ether" currently means "the spectrum of radio broadcasting", used in phrases like "in ether" analogous to english "on air".
That was cool, thank you
That was probably the most boring video you ever produced.
Fentium CPU would go so hard...
It is a net that is connected to the Ether 😅
585,99999
Wi-Fi is more luminiferous. It literally uses electromagnetic waves.
"Bug"
is it only me, or the thumbnail looks kind of like nesquik branding
It's 2024 and I actually just heard about UFS first time ever on WAN Show. Didn't even know it's already in my not so new anymore phone (Note 9) which still displays its internal storage as "sdcard".
USB, released in 1995, only got popular towards the latter half of the 1990s? Might have something to do with Windows 95 USB edition only being launched in 1996, and the fullest support didn't come until Windows 98. So essentially: The second we all could switch, we all switched. Furthermore, show of hands: How many people remember dial up? How many of you actually got 56.6kbps? How many were stuck on 33.6kbps? Thought so.
Bug is an acronym. Broken unknown glitch
It wasn't the theory of relativity that showed that light needs no medium, that was the set of Maxwells equations. Sodium does not enhance the flavour of food, it's poisenous. Sodium Chlroride is just normal salt.
Pretty sure we have no idea how people in the stone age talked. We can trace back English to Proto-Indo-European but that's still bronze age.
Please don't add pure sodium to enhance the flavour of your food. That's really dangerous.
Turns out scientists were right about ether. We just call it the electromagnetic field now.
So light stopped moving through a vacuum in 2000?
I liked this video because I liked it.
Yes, but also no.
Those miners got all the GPU bro need to build one himself
Air quotes count: 86
totally wrong about the nvidia nic. The extra cable and card is called Socket Direct and doesnt provide extra pcie lanes, it is meant to decrease inter-CPU communication overhead on dual-cpu platforms.
in the philippines, we got a nickname for crappy pc builds with INTEL INSIDE logo on it named "Inutil Inside" which is also used in the past by the gaming community when opponents got serious gaming skill issues, when someone failed at a class subject so easy that you just answer common questions to pass, etc.
Calling the idea of ether dumb gives off big nft bro vibes.
I have one doubt what is pixel information 🤔
Here am I on DDR3 3200Mhz 32GB. I will upgrade, obviously when I get my my new CPU.
Towards the end showed image of D4
It's all about the Pentiums, baby
WiFi would not be the ether. It would be the light 🙄
"It's all about the Pentiums!!" - Wierd Al
"The moon is a harsh mistress", the 'contractor' ( the main character ) blamed someone leaving the door open letting in some bugs ( hold up said bugs ). The real reason for the problem was the evolving AI, long before the idea of an AI, as he well knew.
I figured bug originated from a term to describe an annoyance. "quit bugging me".
Dennis Liao "is hung" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ethernet would absolutely be a better name for cellular because that is the one with the most widespread coverage.
Now I just want Intel's latest CPU to be called the “Intel Noice *tongue-pop*”.
I'm still waiting for the new Intel 686 Sexium to come out.
Okay, fine, pent- comes from Greek, so 6 would be hex- (Hexium), and sex-/sext- comes from Latin so then 5 would be quint- (Quintium instead of Pentium), but it's still funny.
Oh Kermie
Luminous Aether.. will probably be the next step when glassfiber speeds go wireless
This might get drowned in comments fairly quickly, but I think you should check out the Japanese NEC PC-9800 series of home computers. They're pretty neat and have their own history of unique software and games. Getting actual hardware is a different story, though.
