Thanks, Colin K! I'm an aspiring software engineer, and was hoping to ask for some motivational words to begin developing my first big GitHub project "F-Win", as a full time CNC machinest it's currently just a pipe dream Btw
  Duncan A
Thanks, Duncan A! Hi Linus and Luke. Have been watching since the Langley house. What would you recommend as a first time audiophile headphone setup. Ideally want to spend less than $1200. Thank you!
 
Reply to Duncan A
Reply @Duncan A! Neither Luke or Linus are super knowledgable in the audiophile space, try watching some ShortCircuit videos or posting in our forum! linustechtips.com
  Ayden S
Thanks, Ayden S! Hypothetically Linus, if you had the choice between LTT as it is now or LTT whereby 100% of viewers are Floatplane but sponsor segments are no more, which would you prefer?
 
Reply to Ayden S
Reply @Ayden S! I can answer this: Floatplane because 14 million FP subscribers would definitely pay more
  Preston R
Thanks, Preston R! Just moved to Oregon so I'll be putting this swacket to good use. Thanks boys.

Thanks, JoshuaCarol! Hey Linus and Luke, how about a typing contest between you two... like the FP Exclusive... Also any updates of boomboxt...
  JoshuaCarol
Thanks, JoshuaCarol! Hey Linus and Luke, how about a typing contest between you two... like the FP Exclusive... Also any updates of the screwdriver and backpack? And Linus, why doesn't Luke appear in LTT videos more often?
 
Reply to JoshuaCarol
Reply @JoshuaCarol! We've got more typing contests planned... Luke works from home since the FP team doesn't have an office space until Lab 2 starts up!

Thanks, Dominic R! LE&L, alot of us don't like pay to win or pay for cosmetic. How do you feel about things like lighting lane at Disneyland in which you have to pay per person to skip a part of the line.
 
Reply to Dominic R
Reply @Dominic R! Watch the video from Defunctland on ticketing... such a disaster!
  Alejandro A
Thanks, Alejandro A! Do you have any contingency plan for when most of your loyal fans have already bought the items they possibly would want from the LTT Store and the flux of orders decreases eventually?
 
Reply to Alejandro A
Reply @Alejandro A! If we continue to innovate, that shouldn't be an issue for a long long time!
  Tyler R
Thanks, Tyler R! Finally decided to buy a water bottle during the liquid nitrogen video earlier this week. Thank you for all the hard work

  Lilchoppa
Thanks, Lilchoppa! In some of your videos you mentioned you like to sleep in your AirPods Pro's. Have there been any recent earbud releases that come anywhere close to replacing them in your eyes?
 
Reply to Lilchoppa
Reply @Lilchoppa! The LG TONE earbuds are pretty good! Linus talked about how comfortable they are in an LTT video
  Andy N
Thanks, Andy N! Do you believe it is intentional that you cannot play Game pass games (like deep rock galactic) with people who own them on steam? I'm made to buy game pass even though I already own these games.
 
Reply to Andy N
Reply @Andy N! I believe Steam is unable to crossplay with anybody, so it could be that Microsoft wants to push people to buy from their store, or it could be dev limitations
  James H
Thanks, James H! I have no idea what this is for, but Linus makes a sweet water bottle.

  Logan C
Thanks, Logan C! Would like to get a steam deck but am wondering if I should wait since I wouldn't get it for at least 6 months and the new AMD chips could make their way into a V2. If you recommend buying now, which tier
 
Reply to Logan C
Reply @Logan C! At this point we don't know when Steam Deck 2 is coming out, so why not reserve and wait to decide when your turn comes?
  Jakob G
Thanks, Jakob G! Have you looked into Samsung's SmartThings? I have it connected to my assistant and the devices go both ways, including custom switches in SmartThings, rooms, etc. If you have looked into it, thoughts?

Thanks, Kyle H! You should definitely do a Minecraft build for Geminitay. Austin did one. You need to flex on him and make one even better. ;) Hahahah! I'm only half kidding though.
