Thanks, Cameron A! Uh...already have one but gotta get a second for work
  Christopher H
Thanks, Christopher H! Moving overseas in a few weeks with 3 PCs with 2xxx/3xxx series cards- need packing materials recommendations! Can't afford to send a second 5950x to LMG (or more likely a GPU | guess) :P
 
Reply to Christopher H
Reply @Christopher H! Take as many parts out as possible if you still have the original packaging!

Thanks, Charles S! @Luke, when will Floatplane get a Dark Mode? I can't watch the stream because it is way too BRIGHT!

Reply @Charles S! Send an email to [email protected] as the more requests the more likely something is to be done!
  Connor H
Thanks, Connor H! Would you be able to test ANC on noise cancelling headphones with Mig welding or other machinery in the background?
 
Reply to Connor H
Reply @Connor H! That might be a bit too niche, but we'll try to test as much as possible! Gotta keep our audio techs busy somehow
  Christopher M
Thanks, Christopher M! As a home inspector and someone who watches every video. Keep up the new house content when can we expect the final house tour... If not gonna answer can I get Linus to say "GO BILLS!"

  Peter K
Thanks, Peter K! Hey guys! First Live show I've caught, and quick question. If I improve the cooling on my PC, will that make the room it's in hotter or cooler? Would love there to be a thermal benefit but I wasn't sure.
 
Reply to Peter R
Reply @Peter R! We've actually made a video on this! Check out "Does Water Cooling your PC Also Cool Down Your Room?"

Thanks, Vincent B! Hi Linus! I wanted to say thank you for your integrity. I feel it's hard to fully trust companies, in general, but I feel that LMG is miles ahead. Your honesty and ability to say "sorry" when you make a mistake make

Thanks, Christopher K! Thanks for all you do LMG! What's the word on the future of GPU mining and the future of GPU pricing?
 
Reply to Christopher K
Reply @Christopher K! I think a lot of people will be scared off from the crash so GPU accessibility could increase!
  Layton K
Thanks, Layton K! After the move is done, can we expect more home techifying content? Possibly with other employees home makeover style?
 
Reply to Layton K
Reply @Layton K! We've got a LOT of work to do with Linus’ house still, but a different type of intel home upgrade could be interesting. Still a lot of those left!
  George B
Thanks, George B! Hey Linus & Luke! I really enjoyed Linus's "I am a pirate" video this week. Do you have any planned or upcoming videos on ethically emulating PS/PS2/Xbox 360 games?

Reply @George B! Not at the moment, but there's a chance with how well the retro stuff has been performing!

Thanks, MysteryMii215! Hey Linus, I'm curious as to why the first 4 seconds on last week's video on 3DTV were removed? You guys inadvertently messed up the chapters by not updating the timestamps to adjust for that.
