Sony Spent 20 Years Making This TV
The video explores Sony’s upcoming RGB LED backlit TVs, detailing how they differ from traditional LCDs and competitors by using a dense RGB LED cluster with advanced processing to deliver true RGB color, high brightness, and improved color stability. It covers how Sony’s approach aims to minimize halos, the role of zone processing and thermal/color compensation, a real-world demo of dramatic brightness, and what this could mean for future competition against OLED and other RGB LCDs.
Please Stop Buying the Wrong SSD
The video explains why SSD DRAM caches and memory buffers matter for real-world performance, debunking the idea that SSDs are无 impact on gaming. It covers how DRAM absence affects mapping and garbage collection, how to tell if a drive has DRAM, and which brands disclose this information. It also ties in purchasing advice and sponsor mentions.
We Went to NASA To Solve a Computer Mystery
The video investigates how close a case fan can be to obstructions before cooling and noise degrade, using tufting and advanced lab techniques at NASA Langley to quantify airflow and later sound behavior. It culminates in practical clearance recommendations and reflections on how scientific experimentation reveals small but meaningful effects in cooling performance and acoustics.
He Needs a NAS
A creator documents building a custom NAS-focused home server and upgrade path, detailing hardware choices (CPU, motherboard, RAM, storage), and the decision to use HexOS for NAS functionality. The video covers setting up a multi-drive array, dealing with drive shortages, networking basics (TailScale), and evaluating NAS software options, interwoven with sponsor segments (Squarespace) and reflections on backup philosophy and personal tech learning.
I’m Taking Credit For This - WAN Show April 3, 2026
WAN Show rounds up upbeat tech news—from RAM price shifts and AI memory techniques to space updates and Linux on the desktop—paired with a personal hardware migration story. The hosts blend industry chatter (Steam pricing, AMD/NVIDIA talk, AI safety) with hands-on experiences and behind-the-scenes notes on content strategy and a jet-related project, offering practical takeaways for everyday computing.
The Gamer Jet is Real! And it costs $0*
The video follows the reveal of buying a jet (Falcon 900B) after a humorous April Fools premise, including the due diligence, negotiations, and a family/uncle-led exploration of options. It dives into the costly refurbishments, 12-year service, safety considerations, and internal systems, while also sharing logistics for potential trips (Cabo, cross-continent flights) and light sponsor breaks about Delta Hub. The host reflects on the realities of ownership, maintenance, weight distribution, and the learning curve of operating a high-end aircraft, ending with a humorous cockpit tour and plans for future content.
Linus Coin Will Double Your Money… GUARANTEED*
The speaker narrates a chaotic pivot of Lionus Media Group into a product-focused, AI-powered ecosystem, announcing an ICO and new partnerships while addressing financial pressures and past controversies. Through satire, they reveal a blurring of reality and marketing, featuring sponsors (Dbrand), a questionable “Lionuscoin” offering, and gimmicks like “Touch Grass” merchandise, all framed as a grand, self-aware corporate rebirth.
Shopping in Korea’s Abandoned Tech Mall
The narrator travels to Yongan Electronics Market in search of a webcam and microphone for their WAN show, navigating a sprawling market with language barriers, inconsistent pricing, and suspect stock. After exploring multiple shops and detours, they cobble together a makeshift rig using a phone as a webcam and a modest mic, testing audio and video during setup, and end with a sponsor plug for Movate’s Mobius 60. Along the way, they comment on the market’s vibe, peripherally explore gadgets, and reflect on the feasibility of buying high-end gear in the area.
It’s Time to Leave Discord… Here is What to Pick Instead
The video explores Discord’s core strengths—voice, text channels, community, and usability—and tests how four main all‑in‑one replacements could cover those needs. It compares multiple alternatives (Steam Chat, Mumble, TeamSpeak, Slack, Matrix, Sto, Fluxer, Flux-like options) across trade‑offs such as latency, ease of use, privacy, self‑hosting, and cost, ultimately suggesting Steam Chat as the strongest single replacement with caveats about community support. It also hints that user preferences will drive which stack best fits each group, ending with a nod to sponsor content.
The Airline Killed His PC
A tech duo unboxes and diagnos es a damaged high end PC build centered on a 4090 GPU, documents chaotic assembly challenges, and experiments across Windows and Linux to get the system booting and stable, finishing with a hardware upgrade discussion and a sponsor plug.
Sora is Dead - WAN Show March 27, 2026
The show surveys major tech headlines and industry shifts, focusing on OpenAI stepping away from Sora and pursuing a business oriented path, plus notable developments in Linux gaming, AI assistance, hardware GPUs, and upcoming consumer tech transitions.
There’s a new CPU maker.
The video introduces ARM’s AGI CPU prospect, highlighting a 136-core Neoverse V3 chip built on a 3nm process, with SMT and a fixed 6 GB/s per-core memory bandwidth designed for power efficiency and stable performance. It explores rack-level implications (30M cores per gigawatt, 36 kW rack, 300 W per AGI CPU), competing with x86 for AI workloads, ARM’s branding and business-model strategy, and the broader vision of software portability, system-level design, and future CPUs.
