WAN Show October 24, 2025 TL;DR

Linus and the crew dive into Amazon AWS’s massive DNS outage that knocked out everything from Twitch to Pokémon GO, then shift gears to the dramatic market cap plunge after CS2’s latest update and whether Chinese investors are stirring up trouble. They marvel at the idea of jet engines powering data centers, debate if Samsung’s AR-powered Galaxy XR and future neural interfaces will stick, and drop in on LTT Store’s new “glitch collection” launch before Trump ditches Canada trade talks.

The second half zips through a wild mix: SuperBox devices locking up, OpenAI’s Atlas vs. Microsoft’s Mico, Linus spoofing Clippy, epic fab tours in Japan (plus cell-tech showoffs), YouTube’s new AI-video detector, PhoneArena’s coffee-table phone book, and a student getting swarmed after AI mistakes Doritos for a weapon. Throw in chats on LTT becoming an ad agency, vision-restoring implants, Xbox’s 30% dev cut drama, and the usual gaming, gear and random banter—and you’ve got nearly four hours of tech talk gold.
