Thanks, Wyatt J! Hey Dan. When Linus says "Hit me Dan", have you ever considered standing up and actually hitting him? Would that be workplace violence? What if you had permission?
 
Reply to Wyatt J
Reply @Wyatt J! The best is to not expect it.

Thanks, Max B! Hey WAN.DLL, Thanks for all the great screwdrivers. What's an underrated or not used enough tool or bit of equipment every tech should have in their Backpack or Tech Sack?
 
Reply to Max B
Reply @Max B! A nice pry tool. It's super useful for a bunch of different things including stabbing packaging, to scraping off goop.
  David L
Thanks, David L! Are the other colours of cable ties ever coming back? I learned that my job uses them for cable management, if not, who did they come from?
 
Reply to David L
Reply @David L! I think eventually! Like anything I'm not sure if we get supply chain issues or culling skus.
  Eli A
Thanks, Eli A! Evening DLL, with the takedowns of popular switch emulators Yuzu and Ryujinx do you think it has caused more harm than good for Nintendo. I had never considered using an emulator before but now I do.

Thanks, Christian L! Hi DLL. With the new Investment Round at EdisonMotors are you investing in the company? Wasn't a Collab teased some WANShows back? They could use some shout Out. Thanks.

Thanks, Lewis H! Hey LLD, I know you're exploring different inseam lengths for the cargo pants, are there any plans for different colors? I'd love to wear them for work but the colour doesn't meet dress code.
 
Reply to Lewis H
Reply @Lewis H! Really depends on how the first run sells.

Thanks, Antulio R! Hello guys! Why does my system boot weird when I use 4 sticks of ram vs 2? It thinks for a bit before it fully boots. With 2 sticks it boots instantly. Why would that happen? Love the show!
 
Reply to Antulio R
Reply @Antulio R! Normally a ram training thing! Sounds like it might be AMD. Dual channel vs single channel can be weird.

Reply @Jacob M! I think it might be an adaptation thing. There's a lot of integration it still can't do. But it might end up as a filter which is scary. Only the top 1% will do well.

Thanks, Rafael P! Any update on a potential collab with Bigtime? Would love to see some LTT staff subject to Jerry's lie detector test.

Thanks, Matthew J! Is using an old computer with a fx 8350 to host game servers worth it or would it be better to buy a newer budget computer for the purpose?
 
Reply to Matthew J
Reply @Matthew J! Memory and single core depending on the game!

Thanks, Anonymous! Hey Luke's mom and DLL. What are your thoughts on CoD Blops 6 having a advanced audio subscription? What's next charging to unlock framerate?
  Sam M
Thanks, Sam M! Hey LLD, Linus - how's the iPhone going and how long do you plan to use it for? Also, any idea if the Retro Pet Cave will ever come back? Thanks :)

Thanks, Orrin A! If you could get rid of one tech product you have to use on at least once a week, by consolidating it's purpose into something else, what would it be?

Reply @Orrin A! I'd like to move my phone into a web based Saas for some horrific reason.

  Dominik M
Thanks, Dominik M! Hey LLD ever considered to do a how to video on Speaker-refoaming / reconeing ? It is such a great way to get very good speakers on a low budget.
 
Reply to Dominik M
Reply @Dominik M! That sounds like an awesome idea.

Thanks, Glen G! Classic tools for classy builds.
  Jason M
Thanks, Jason M! @Shorty Swift You've spoken a few times about your disdain for Sleep Country on the show but you've never really delved into it, care to share more info as to why you dislike them so much

Thanks, Benjamin B! Hi LLD, will you be making a tech bro vest in gray if the black vest does well?
 
Reply to Benjamin B
Reply @Benjamin B! We do expand if sales are good!
  Daniel R
Thanks, Daniel R! Hi dll, Does the Floatplanes tech stack utilize open source software? If so, do you worry that license changes (like what happened with Redis) could impact future maintainability?
  Logan C
Thanks, Logan C! Hey LLD! Hopefully this is my 5th and final spout lid for my 400z bottle! | definitely unintentionally ignore the warning saying the v1 lid was fragile. Can't wait for more sizes in the cargo pants!

Thanks, Anonymous! Hey LDL, I work as a private teacher for a family of billionaires, the family does pro motorsports, if you homeschooled with an infinite budget and had lots of travel opportunities What Would You Do?
  Shawn-Michael W
Thanks, Shawn-Michael W! I noticed you haven't had any new bonus bin items for a while. Are there any plans to make a 2024 sticker pack, another postcard, some more of those cool pins, or anything similar?

Thanks, Joseph B! Give me an early birthday present, next time Linus gets premium access to a company let it be Valve. I want to see inside the company we all have so much invested in with our libraries.
  Sara K
Thanks, Sara K! Hello Dan, Luke, and Lunis. Are there any more long sleeve shirt designs coming in the future? Or a crew neck sweater (no zipper no hood). If so can we get any hints as to what to expect?
 
Reply to Sara K
Reply @Sara K! Yep always working on mare things. No hints as there are racks and racks of test products.
