"Everyone steals shit from LMG and doesn't so much as try to hide it when Linus comes over." is much better content though.

      @@jamescollins6085 When he wasn't there ans I was in a particularily bad mood I refused tips. Rich people, I don't care too much, just killed me to have to seem grateful, knowing I was broke and could use it. But if it was like a mom taking a few kids out to for lunch then no I vehemtly refused tips. If they asked I said we can't keep them. Which quite a few customers ask specifically before they tip. It's not like the US where waiters only make tips, we do have a salary but tips is still why anyone woukd take such a stressful job for that pay. There is better for more. But if you are good at small talk and all that you can end up earning A LOT. I have "received" over 100€ in tips many times. 20 people at a table all well fed, drunk and happy, first gives 20 bucks and the rest follow to not seem cheap, even apologising for only a 10€ which was more than I made an hour (9€).
      It's funny to stumble across this thread again because the restaurant is out of business. Bankrupt, failed, article in the news an all (it once upon a time was a succesful restaurant frequented by high society such as our POS major I had the pleasure of ignoring once (first come first serve haha). So the reviews are all quite dire. I got the boot about 3 years ago. Lots of reviews saying how good it was then... haha. I got the last laugh. We have a beautiful German word called Schadenfreude, that even some Americans are familiar with.

      @@LegionRRTX Let me say it so: It's in many media and other companies, that the guys who do the merchandise and design stuff use macs - they are good for that. But we all know that they run their whole editing department and most other departments on Windows and/or Linux, and that's for a good reason: since Apple killed Final Cut with Version X, nobody in media uses it anymore, but Adobe.
      And Adobe can be used on Windows - and that means instead of having a computer where the company decides what graphic power you have you can just go with a normal desktop tower and put the fastest GPU and CPU you can get into it and will still be cheaper than a Mac Pro Cheesegrid, coupled with water cooling and many other features.
      In 2022 only real big Apple Fanbois and Gals still use Apple for video editing (mostly TH-camrs who just have a MacBook Pro), but the industry is using Windows and Adobe. So of course they don't need much MacBooks at LTT, because outside of the designer Team and some editors for their scripts nobody will need them.
      And I'll bet Anthony prefers Linux :D

Then LTT expanded and became more transparent and I thought we'd met everyone. Turns out there IS a few offices of minions in the background, or at least one.

    The over USB power/voltage/surge error is 100% the keyboard. It looked like a keychron board, and I have a similar problem with a keychron I have. Trying to charge it via USB throws a voltage error on my computer and disables the port to protect from damage. Luckily it is wireless, so I just charge it from the wall when needed. I've found a few other people who have run into similar problems with Keychron boards online, so while it seems to be rare, it isn't unique.

      Company usually just writes it up as loss item and get a tax cut, so it's a win-win situation. But in all honesty, most of his employees would end up in jail for theft if they worked for non-tech MNCs like McDonalds, Prudential, etc. Tech companies are usually much more liberal than that, since a lot of stuff are either freebies or tech samples meant for in-house projects.(eg. Like how the original Xbox alpha OS got leaked out because a former Microsoft engineer's old MacIntosh got sold by his family). I used to work at Oracle and Cloudflare, things go missing all the time. They would just write it up as a loss because too many people go in and out of the office. The real important stuff will never be just left around for easy access where employees could take them, so there was never any worries. It really is only useful to people who has wanted you fired and was just waiting to catch you doing something wrong.

      the speakers are way too big for the room. Hs7 would have been enaugh. Also they are to close to the wall. Should be at least 50-100cm away from the wall....

    Nice setup! I also went with 8" studio monitors the lp8. After a few months I also bought the 8" presonus subwoofer and holy balls. Deff worth it
