From the sound of his latest lab tour video they actually hired more people to work with him on Mac Address.

Linus mentioned that he is still giving final approval/editing powers over most of the scripts. It sounded like it was anything for the main LTT channel during the weekly meetings. So that would be a "Writing Credit" there. Camera, uhh, he bought them? That one I got nothing on.

LTT does pretty good stuff overall and ride the line between 'informative' and 'entertainment' pretty well. I really have no loving idea why people hate Linus - the dude has some weird takes but if you want to stack rack All The Businesses to work for, LTT is probably pretty high on the list.

Hes whatever but his whole backpack warranty thing was handled so poorly by him and he comes off like a jackass from it.

All of this can be forgiven though by the existence of Mac Address, though.

I remember when Riley was new at LTT and he’s a charisma guy not a tech guy.

Anyway Riley cohosted the WAN show and asked if he could review the new nvidia card and Linus said “no, you’re unqualified” and then the next week Linus tried to tell viewers that it was a big inside joke between him and Riley that Linus acts like a dick.

Half of Riley's schtick is being a smug jerk, if he can't handle Linus' small-dog yapping in return then that's on him.

AMD's drivers remain the balance, and the 4070Ti is still a better card for non-gaming use.

Is it? It's like 10% faster in rasterization, 10 - 20% slower in ray tracing, and less power efficient. Nvidia's media engine is also better, their encoders are better, and DLSS is superior to FSR2. Not to mention CUDA if that's useful to you. I'd say it depends on what you're interested in, but even at the same price I'd probably lean toward the 4070 Ti. But that just reflects my own interests, as someone who likes to turn on ray tracing and dlss whenever possible and has also dabbled with AI art before.

LMG is certainly very successful at basically everything they do, I don't think anyone will contest that, it's more that the labs is a very underpants-gnomes business model where right now we're in the "???" phase. Will it eventually generate income? No doubt. Will it become revenue positive? Less certain, but not unlikely. How long will that take and how will they get there? Who knows.

What are the chances that they'll start selling certs that manufacturer can slap on their packaging "As tested by LMG Labs!"

The GPGPU encoding matters if you intend to stream (GameStream, Twitch/YouTube Live, or watch TV/VoDs on your mobile phone - just to name a few options).

The only way to do encoding for archival is CRF with a decent value and using a slow preset, as this enables threading in the encoder.

about 15-20% faster in raster, 20W more for amd under load, worst in raytrace but FSR isn't terrible, and both FSR and DLSS are improving at a super quick rate. but with AMD you don't need to worry about DLSS 4 being gated behind next gen gpu like dlss3. my old vega56 can run FRS2 in dark tide and get a nice bump in fps.

Also, it's worth pointing out that AMD has done some amount of work to improve the opensource situation when it comes to drivers.

The same cannot be said for nvidia, who've done the exact opposite.

Nvidia is getting better on Linux, but only because they put a RSIC-V CPU core on their GPUs that does a lot of the work their driver used to do.

This article shows us two (2) games. Meanwhile, Hardware Unboxed with 16 games tested puts the 7900 XT at 4% faster than the 4070 Ti at 1440p, TechPowerUp puts it at 8% faster, and Tom's Hardware puts it at 6% faster. Unfortunately not all reviewers give clean averages/geomeans to compare together, but other reviews i'm seeing around the net (pc gamer, rockpapershotgun, the verge when looking at just their rasterization results) seem to put it in similar territory. So again... is it "so much" better? I'm not saying the 4070 Ti is clearly a better value when the price is equal, but the two cards are competitive with each other if you look more than just one review.

usually executive producer means you financed the development of the film in some way. bought the original rights or paid for scripts or whatever before a studio picked it up

producer means you did one of the exec producers or the director a solid

line producer means you actually worked on the film
