WAN Show November 7, 2025 TL;DR

Linus kicks off by revealing that The Louvre museum’s Wi-Fi password was, unsurprisingly, “LOUVRE,” which sparks a broader chat about basic security and 2FA. Floatplane then gets roasted for accidentally charging subscribers multiple times and serving glitchy auto-generated subtitles (with refunds to follow). Linus also shares a nightmare airport saga—overweight bags, battery confiscations, and border control drama.

The crew barrels through a buffet of tech headlines: YouTube’s new paid-membership pop-up ads, Microsoft finally fixing its decade-old update-restart bug (but still not ready for AI), China’s Thorium-powered container ship, Amazon suing AI startup Perplexity, and Nvidia prepping servers for space. Throw in holiday merch drops, AMD driver controversies, Starlink on Apple Watch, and a peek at their upcoming LTT Labs tests, and you’ve got another whirlwind WAN Show.
