Streamers, this one’s for you.
Finding the right stream settings is hard. Most advice out there gives everybody the same numbers, no matter what’s in your PC.
So I built something. Pick your graphics card, processor, game and where you go live. It gives you the exact settings your setup can actually run.

Update: a bunch of you asked for dual PC, so it’s in.
I held off at first because I didn’t want it turning into “put in both PCs and optimize everything.” So it only checks your STREAMING PC, not your gaming PC. When you pick dual PC, it reminds you to put in your streaming PC’s parts.
Pick how the game gets over (capture card, network box, NDI or Moonlight) and you’ll get settings for that setup.
One more thing. If you’re running lower resolutions on some platforms and everything runs smooth, don’t stress about bumping them up just because you can.
The point of this tool is to take load OFF your PC, not get you to pile more on.
I’d rather be live in more places / clip and record at a quality people can actually watch than max everything out and limit where I can be seen.

You can't tell the difference. 30fps is fine.
Want the biggest game ever made running on 6 year old consoles without crashing? This is the compromise.
Don't like it? Buy a PC.

Samsung roasting Apple is funny when Apple's one of their biggest customers.
Then Apple turns around and makes way more profit, and is worth multiples more.
Samsung makes the ads. Apple makes the money.

Samsung seems to spend 90% of its R&D budget figuring out how to criticize the iPhone Duo.
The remaining 10% goes toward figuring out how to keep using the same five-year-old camera sensors for another five years.
When it comes to finding flaws in competitors’ products, Samsung’s innovation is truly unmatched.

This is what made me move to Apple for my main workflow and I have zero regrets.
6 years ago today, Apple introduced the first M1 Macs.
The MacBook Air, 13-inch MacBook Pro, and Mac mini began the Mac's move to Apple silicon.

After a week with the Galaxy Z Fold 8, I can confirm this...
Every stereotype about iPhone users? It's actually Samsung users.
Don't praise their phone and they lose their minds.
Overpriced. Loaded with bloat. Not any better than the other flagships out right now.
I said what I said.
X just launched clipping.
I don't think people understand how big this is.
For years, X has been one of the fastest places to find out what's happening, in content creation and the world in general. When something happens, people come here to see what the conversation is and what everyone is saying about it.
Now you can grab a moment from a video, add your take and post it without leaving X. Every clip credits and links back to the original. Eligible creators and clippers can both earn from the views.
One good clip can get someone interested in a full video, livestream or podcast they would've never watched otherwise. Those small moments introduce people to entire creators.
X building clipping into the place where those conversations already happen is going to speed that up.
And if this comes to livestreaming too, it's a game changer.
This is a serious update. X is coming to compete.
90 days.
That's all it takes to change your life if you actually stick to the plan.
Nobody believes that until they try it.

The OLED iPad mini is a great first iPad. If you already have the last one, the screen isn't enough of a jump. No ProMotion in 2026 is kind of crazy.

Why would anyone want to spend money traveling to California, weeks before holiday, just to spend their weekend avoiding IRL streamers doing stupid shit for clicks?

I wasted years making decisions around whether other people would approve.
For the love of god, stop doing that shit. Plans change. People grow.
Don't hold yourself back because someone in your life might not like it, and most certainly don't do it for some random idiot on the internet.
At the end of the day, none of this shit really matters.
Do what you love. Love what you do.
