  Erik H
Thanks, Erik H! Adam Neely has a great video on how Janet Jackson's “Rhythm Nation” was breaking laptops by hitting the resonant frequency of their hdd's. Would be cool to see something similar explored from LMG's side.

Thanks, Anonymous! Hopefully I won't drop this
  Ken W
Thanks, Ken W! Linus: I'm a bigger dude and I've got a lot of bigger friends, have you considered going with bigger sizes for merch, possibly up to 5XL? The quality of your merch is impeccable and I'd rather not buy from places
 
Reply to Ken W
Reply @Ken W! That's a great question for Nick! Shoot him a message during the week at @NickLMG on Twitter.
  Chris R
Thanks, Chris R! Really enjoying my 21oz bottle, so getting another. Did Linus drop the prototype? All of the 21oz bottles appear to have a bent pin in one of the USB headers.
 
Reply to Chris R
Reply @Chris R! Linus personally bends all the pins on our LTT water bottles. It prevents you from installing them into your AM4 motherboard.

Thanks, Daniel G! \(^y)/~

Thanks, Slabity! How important is it that motherboard standoffs are conductive and grounded? I am building my own computer case out of aluminum extrusions and 3d printed parts. Would there be any issue with having

  Jamie M
Thanks, Jamie M! Can someone please explain low volume music under talking in vids it's sometimes fine but sometimes it is super distracting.
 
Reply to Jamie M
Reply @Jamie M! We normally add music to the videos just to cover up a smidge of the background noise. Guess we don't always get the levels correct.
  Milind S
Thanks, Milind S! It's my friend Pratik’s birthday, would love it if you could wish him! I also have a question: What advice would you give to someone who is about to get into the tech industry as a developer? Thanks!

  William S
Thanks, William S! Have either of you tried to daily drive/use the 64oz LTT water bottle? Any reasons why you're still using the 40oz one.
 
Reply to William S
Reply @William S! Luke has been daily driving the 640z. Loves it because of an "out of sight, out of mind" kind of outlook. Refills it once in the morning and has water all day.
  Robert S
Thanks, Robert S! Hey Luke and Linus, is there any talks about another live show, maybe not tech related or maybe just have Bell do ASMR ? PS I love you guys and the show. LUKE ROCKS.

Thanks, Kyle D! I think 1080p is the line. I don't own a 1440p monitor the only thing in my house capable of viewing 1440p is my phone, and it doesn't look better than 1080p because it's a phone lol.
  William B
Thanks, William B! Have you ever considered doing a video on going through an ISP facility to explain actual technology behind ISPs?

Reply to Abhijit C
Reply @Abhijit C! Most games are just, kind of optimized for 16x9, and frame rates have a little bit of diminishing returns. Most of the best monitor tech is just 16x9 currently.
