It doesn't sound like the issue extends beyond a small number of part SKUs. It's probably more of a design flaw based on the data from Steve and Wendell. I'm waiting to see if Intel tries to gaslight everyone or actually does something honorable to resolve the issue.

It sounds like 12th Gen parts are fine and nobody is talking about other SKUs beyond the top end enthusiast parts. If someone finds a way to make a program to test for the issue that could be exciting to see how broad the problem is.

When you say a lithography issue are you concerned that everything coming from that fab line is affected? Or did you just mean the physical design has a flaw that can't be fixed in microcode / BIOS?

After seeing how at&t manages their systems, their app, their stores, and talking to tech support... This doesn't surprise me at all. This all from the viewpoint of a layperson who has used them for service for 15 years or so. Unfortunately I also have a Verizon account and they seem to also be utterly incompetent. I think it's rampant in the telecom industry to just have absolute shit for a back-end. A race to the fucking bottom. Fuck these execs that enable this shit, send them all to jail.

It works decent with rclone but a first party solution would be nice.

The audio is noticeably worse on streaming as well. They seem to put very little effort into improving streaming audio formats. DD+ Atmos is nice(r) but it's still based on AC-3.

Is that a dryer vent duct?

I had a bunch of problems with a recent Denon and noise. One issue is present until I put the unit into ECO mode. The other required me to add a common mode filter to my input AC (I used an emotiva cmx-2).

It's been frustrating because I've been running Denon AVRs for years and this newer model is the worst of them all for noise issues (AVR-X6700H)

A UDM-pro might be a good option in addition to some of the other suggestions here.

Steve Burke is a treasure. It's rare to see anyone in the space stand up to companies like Asus because so many of them are dependent upon getting review samples for free and so on. He just doesn't seem to give a shit and I love him for it, and his subscribers reward him for it. I wish the auto industry had more people holding their feet to the fire.

Microsoft gave up on QA a long time ago.

This is quite the comprehensive list. A nice reference for the future. Hopefully he keeps it up to date as the list of offenses grows.

I tried new outlook once and it was such a fucking disaster I'm still shaking from it 6 months later. It was also a giant pain to go back to classic.
