The Louvre’s Password, Airport Mayhem & AI Gone Wild

Linus and Dan kick things off by roasting the Louvre for using “LOUVRE” as its password, then dig into security best practices, 2FA, and why most online accounts really don’t matter. They move on to Floatplane’s billing fiasco (double-charges, busted subs and auto-generated subtitle glitches), swap airport horror stories about over-weight fees and confiscated gadgets in China, and rant about YouTube’s new paid membership pop-ups, AI accidentally terminating creator channels, and an annoying Teams scheduling bug.

But wait, there’s more! From powering your Apple Watch with Starlink and the UK’s “Stop Killing Games” debate to drooling over the Red Magic 11 and Microsoft’s finally fixed update-restart bug after a decade, the squad also covers China’s thorium-powered container ships, sustainable AI investing, Amazon vs. AI assistants, and Nvidia sending servers to space. Toss in merch news, hiring advice, Linus’s Torvalds meet-nervousness, and a zillion listener questions, and you’ve got the full November 7 WAN Show rollercoaster.
