Thanks, Anonymous! Still want to break Grok? - Try asking about rocketry, and how rockets are powered. Hypergolic fuel mixes are especially interesting. - That'd be a fun floatplane bonus video.

Thanks, Ethan Z! Hi LLD! On the topic of cameras and zoom, have you ever heard of Canon's Coolpix P1000 with its incredible 125x optical zoom in a relatively compact size? Definitely looks like a cool piece of tech

Thanks, Matthew R! People already fall for misinformation when it's just a junk article on Facebook. How the heck are we supposed to fight misinformation in the age of AI videos and audio?

Reply @Matthew R! User education sadly.

Thanks, Jonathan L! Hey kemel32.DLL! If Apple truly invests gaming, what would it take for you to switch your daily driver to Mac? Also,
 
Reply to Jonathan L
Reply @Jonathan L! When all the productivity software I use on a daily basis is also ported to Mac. They are a tiny market segment.

  Matthew K
Thanks, Matthew K! Hi DLL! The American Red Cross released a VR training app for lifeguards but it needs the Quest 2 or 3. Linus, do you think this would've helped you become a better lifeguard, and can it help others?

  Kyle K
Thanks, Kyle K! Been using my black ltt screwdriver daily for almost a year. It puts in work. Thanks for making a tool that gives me a little joy everyday. Excited to have the brown noctua version now! Cool
  Benjamin A
Thanks, Benjamin A! Love the lighting talk. I am a lighting designer at a church and I do side gigs for a ballet co. I would argue the versatility of LED fixtures far outweighs the downsides compared to tungsten lights.
  Andrew T
Thanks, Andrew T! I loved the rainbow keyboard pin you had in the bonus bin. I was disappointed it was gone when I had something to get. How do you decide&communicate which items are long term and which are short
 
Reply to Andrew T
Reply @Andrew T! I'd reach out to support. I'm sure they would love to give you a bunch of details.
  Austin W
Thanks, Austin W! Got a quote to add 140sqft to my house this week (new bathroom, with nothing fancy + laundry room). $90k-100k. Southern US. Any idea what prices are like in Canada?
 
Reply to Austin W
Reply @Austin W! Quite a range. $500-1000 is common. But that's in Canadian.

Thanks, Anonymous! Hey LLD love the show! My wife is starting a side hustle writing and illustrating children's books. From your experience what's the most useful tech tool for designing and publishing kids books?
 
Reply to Anonymous
Reply @Anonymous! Digitization technology in my opinion. I notice a lot of kids book look or are hand drawn. Getting that into the computer is far easier than before. You know, besides the rest.
  Tempestt H
Thanks, Tempestt H! Given the Era of live service games is there a way back to more single player focused games from some of our favorite publishers like Tomb Raider or Fallout?
 
Reply to Tempestt H
Reply @Tempestt H! They do not provide recurring revenue and therefor investors will not enjoy them. You will probably get them from small studios.
  Alexander v
Thanks, Alexander v! Rewatched LTT's YouTube HDR video from mid 2022. How much development time to add HDR to Floatplane, ignoring timeline/commitment details?
 
Reply to Alexander v
Reply @Alexander v! More than the team could handle I bet. I'm sure they would do it if Linus twisted their arms off.

Thanks, luke n! Hello Wan dot DLLL, long time listener first time merch messenger. What the logistics are for advertising on podcasts. Recently yours changed from prerecorded to the same ones on the live show. Thanks

Thanks, Anonymous! Hello DLL! I was thinking that Crisis never gets talked about for its game play, was it even a good game in the end? In ten years will cyberpunk just be known as that GPU benchmark?
 
Reply to Anonymous
Reply @Anonymous! If they keep dumping weird graphic things into it possibly. I'm sure there will be new ones.
  Christopher C
Thanks, Christopher C! I'm doing my part.

Thanks, Merlin P! Hi DLL! First-time buyer, a Canadian living in China. I would love to see more exciting tech coming out of China covered. Are there any plans to smuggle more things out to review/checkout?

Thanks, Anonymous! Love the screwdriver, best one I've used. Question: Do you have a good suggestion in how to make your own NAS at home? I have a Synology but it's only 2 bays that I run in RAID and need more space.

Thanks, Chandler W! Have you thought of using the AI Linus voice to help vision impaired fans interact with the labs site? Would you consider adding other voices to that so people could choose their favorite?

Thanks, erik a! Hey LTT, love the show. Its the first time catching it live, and I thought I'd support. Linus, are you tempted in daily driven s24 Ultra? Luke, have you played any SOD?
  Heiko T
Thanks, Heiko T! Sam Altman, did any of you ever see similarities between him and the Ted Faro character in the Horizon series? I think there are both physical and behavioural similarities between them. Great show !

Thanks, Sophia R! I work in aerospace and i dont feel safe flying because ive seen people with an IQ under 40 build airplanes so considering that why do you feel safe flying? LMAO
  Brian B
Thanks, Brian B! Hello, a show or two ago Luke mentioned there was almost no stats from Floatplane. As a Floatplane sub, should I watch the smaller channels on Youtube to help those teams in your performance metrics?
 
Reply to Brian B
Reply @Brian B! Just being subbed to Floatplane means the world. <3

Thanks, Anonymous! Linus, now that LTT Group is somewhat independent. If available, would you clone yourself to keep running? or find a successor with the same/more passion & knowledge to pass your legacy?

  AJ O
Thanks, AJ O! Really happy to see you guys are selling PTM7950, so much easier to get this way. My question is, did you have plans to buy and sell this since the video on it, or is this a much more recent idea?
  Kasper B
Thanks, Kasper B! Hey LL&D, seeing as you design and produce so many products, what, if any, inter product consideration and testing do you do? How things look/fit/work together etc
