Accidental DDoS
- LTT accidentally DDoSed Medicat USB and other small software projects multiple times after recommending them.
- The Medicat website temporarily went down due to increased traffic.
Mitigating Traffic Spikes

- Linus discusses how LTT's forum and Floatplane have struggled with unexpected user surges.
No Founders Edition 4060 Ti 16GB
- Nvidia won't release a Founders Edition RTX 4060 Ti 16GB, likely due to poor performance.
- The 4060 series pricing is confusing and frustrating, with the 16GB version overpriced.
