Hello LLD, I've been a huge fan of LTT ever since the old days of Linus unboxing stuff in his house (like the fire truck). I just want to say I'm so proud of how far you guys have come!

Hi Linus. I am 15, just got the screwdriver. I am an entrepreneur trying to make well thought out products, I am wondering where I should start manufacturing wise aside from 3d printing
Thanks, Nick G!
Hey Linus Slick and Dan long time viewer not first time buyer question are you going to do a WAG hoodie v2 and also any big plans for 2026
Thanks, Gregory E. M!
I hear you both use Home Assistant (me too). Is there a reason you want the all-in-one switch sensors? Keep it separate and upgrade as needed.
Thanks, Rylee H!
Hey DLL, Couldn't help myself and collecting them all! Has there been any discussion of display stands or racks for the screwdrivers? For those with so many drivers!

Super Excited about the new screwdriver colors, even if my black Friday order
somehow got lost in shipping and still hasn't arrived or even shipped yet :(
Thanks, Anonymous!
Hi all, I'm an old follower and finally wanted to support you. I'd really appreciate a screwdriver option with the standard-size handle but a stubby shaft. Thanks for everything, keep up the work.
Thanks, Aaron H!
Long time listener, first time Floater :) What do you think is the most overhyped tech trend that we are seeing right now? (besides AI everything) Merry Christmas to y'all

Get good shoes, and make sure you are prepared for miles and miles of walking.
There's lots of boring stuff, so take a run through categories you're actually into.

What are some "highly anticipated games" that you want to play in 2026, or hope would come out in 2026, even though they probably wont. GTA & Elder Scrolls 6 are the main players that come to mind.

I'm 47 and started going back to college to get an engineering degree, but math be hard! Now I'm an English major. What would be your backup degree?
Thanks, Anonymous!
Happy new year LLD, is AMD crossfire still a thing or is multi GPU dead? I'm
considering an upgrade and RAM on graphics cards are getting relatively limited to
how much newer games are using.
Thanks, Craig M!
Hey DLL, what is something each of you own, tech or otherwise, that is under rated and you would reccomend more people need in their lives? I was gifted a back scratcher and its so satisfying.
Thanks, Guido v!
Never leave your screwdriver, both of us are using them all the time. We randomly get asked if by any chance we've got a screwdriver. No one expects it either. Thanks for the transparent version,
Thanks, Ronin N!
So excited that you finally released the bit case. Here's a question: do you prefer
certain controller layouts for specific games or locations?
Thanks, Liam K!
DLL - if you were our tech corporate overlords for a day, what actions would you take? Assuming you can do literally anything with your money and power that today's overlords can do
Thanks, Nick D!
Hey LLD, ever made a video on using peer to peer mobile messaging devices (i.e. homemade cellphones to text, not walkie-talkies)? Tried making one myself but the range was not practical but "worked"
Thanks, Timothy N!
sup you cool cats, I'm sure you've answered before, but what's your favorite christmas gift you've given/received? for any reason you want of course. keep up the long shows, love to listen at work. :3
Thanks, Scott G!
Hi DLL! I'm leaving my job next week after 2 years, and this week I fixed a problem that's plagued me since Day 1. What's the longest running tech problem you've ever finally fixed?
Thanks, Anonymous!
Linus, Does it feel weird to skip your own vids knowing the YT algorithm is -always watching-? I watch VODs on Floatplane but WAN on YT—always think about how I'm sending bad signals by skipping VODs.
Thanks, Robert B!
Hi LLD! I would love this memory shortage to incentivize less memory usage by a lot of native applications, but I'm hesitant to be too hopeful. Whatya think? Less electron apps would be appreciated.
Thanks, Lynn D!
Good evening from Switzerland, First WAN show to actually watch on time. I will go skiing tomorrow. I recently saw ski goggles with like AR stuff and the ability to read messages. Really dangerous no?
Thanks, Grant B!
Luke. If a few AI write all the code, and those AI are trained on the same sources, won't we have a future where all the software will have the same security blind spots that attackers can exploit?
Thanks, Eric R!
Merry Boxing Day! Was looking for an excuse to get the Transparent Purple
Screwdriver and this was perfect! Along with more blank T's in stock makes it a lovely
Birthday Present to myself!
Thanks, Sehajveer B!
Hi DLL, I recently started a new position as a remote junior software developer 3 months ago, I was wondering what you guys saw in new employees that helped them stand out.
Thanks, Eric M!
First, if a video gets demonetized, do YT Premium views still pay out, and what are your thoughts on YT allowing you to cut videos differently for Premium subscribers, shorter ad reads, for instance?
Thanks, Jasmijn K!
Hey DLL! Ever considered a video on products most people consider obselete because of smartphones? Maybe a video feature matching a phone, lve found having separate devices is tons better for my brain
Thanks, Urban D!
Hello! The big the small and a Dan behind all! With all the smart tech you are going to insta in the tech house are some you are planning to avoid? Thank you for the Sennheiser HD550 🤓 Have a nice day
Thanks, Benjamin O!
My Northern Lights deskpad looks great and has held up well since 2021. I can't wait for my screwdrivers. What do you think of upgrading your CPU at the beginning and end of every other generation.
Thanks, Alyssa C!
Hey Dan, Luke, and Yvonne's husband. It feels like it's been a while since you were asked and it's one of the last easy "good news" topics left. What games are each of you looking forward to?
Thanks, Yaroslav K!
Hi LLD! First time watching live in Ukrainian time. How would you let go of “just in case” tech hoarding and start saving for the future, rather than living only in the moment during uncertain times?
Thanks, Royal H!
Hey I'm building my dream PC in a week and | want to optimise/debloat it. | watched
My PCis Slow... Can These “Speed Up" Tools Fix. My goal is to have no overclocking
but RAM and test all components.
Thanks, John K!
Hey LLD! Love the OG and stubby screwdriver, excited for the Cryo Teal! On the
subject of the holidays, what was the worst holiday gift you have ever received? Mine
was a math textbook from my uncle.
Thanks, Manny B!
Hi wan.dll! thanks for the atomic purple driver. What are your thoughts on sites/services that actively don't work while on a vpn. Rcs fails to work sometimes on my iPhone and some web servers as well
Thanks, Christian Ö!
Didn't know what Pozidriv is, looked at the screws in my drawer and was surprised, i need these bits. Thank you. Guess i'll find out if the higher customs fee thing is solved.
Thanks, Alex P!
Longtime fan of the channel!Fairly employing people these days just keeps getting

You reminded me i got a gift card for Christmas, happy I saw this as I ended getting closing shift so i would've missed it..... but i can't split the payment :( as the card doesn't have enough, Fix?
Thanks, Christopher T!
Hey little l, Big D, and Big L. I welcome transparency, especially if it is orange. Which company do you find to be a paragon of transparency?
Thanks, Alex B!
What IT certifications would you recommend for System and Cloud administrator? (In house & Entra) I do the job but boss wants Certs to give me the title.
Thanks, Aaron Y!
Hey DLL, regarding social media, do you think there are ANY indications of any
company (whether old or new) rethinking their approach to make it have a more
positive impact on society as a whole.
Thanks, Felin K!
Here's me spending my Christmas money, buying some quality stuff! Never know what to ask here so instead I'll wish everyone merry (late) christmas
Thanks, Grady O!
Hi Linus and Luke what is one prediction you have for next year in tech? Mine is that apple will release a folding phone and it will flop while everyone makes YouTube videos about it. Merry Christmas
Thanks, Joshua B!
I've been watching LTT since I was 14 at school in the UK. I'm now 29, have a PhD in Robotics, and am about to start my dream job at MIT. Thanks for inspiring a generation of engineers like me!
Thanks, Devon L!
Hey DLL, thanks for the screwdriver! For Linus, how has your approach to managing screen time and video games changed as you get more experience as a parent, and has it affected your own habits?
Thanks, Orion M!
Dear LLD, has there ever been software with a lifetime subscription that actually stayed good? Plex did me dirty, and companies seem to go downhill with their cash flow.
Thanks, Kody M!
Hey LLD, happy holidays! I've made the switch from a sound bar to a dedicated system and will not go back. What is something you upgraded that made it so you could never go back to the “value” option?
Thanks, Alca H!
Hi LLD(esp Luke), making my own game atm, what r ur thoughts on models like Gemini3 generating fully playable games w/ complete art and mechnsm in min without any tweak? to me a bit disheartening
Thanks, Scott G!
Hello 3 Musketeers, for my business the big project that makes it a business just failed again (2yrs of trying). Have you had a big project fail like that and if so how did you get up and keep trying?
Thanks, Lucas P!
Hey LLD! First time merch message, long time shill. What is the best way to go about shopping for subjective items like gaming chairs or headphones when you don't have access to them?
Thanks, Jason W!
Hey LLD! What is your most favorite based take from Linus Torvalds? Here's to 2026 being the year of the Linux desktop actually really this time
Thanks, Nicholas A!
McCheesery is happy to have a transparent screwdriver. I will use this working as a mechanic/pc builder The two most expensive hobbys 🤗
Thanks, Matthew F!
Merry Christmas DLL, hope you had a good one! I'm a computing teacher in the UK and | want to know what is one thing that you wish you had been taught at school but weren't?
Reply @Matthew F!
Math is puzzles not just formulas. It's all about numbers moving around in a 2D or 3D matrix. Basically linear algebra instead of 2+2.
Thanks, Chris F!
Hi LDD! I'm getting the Prismagix screwdriver - absolutely amazing product and previous purchases are fantastic. Linus - as a dad, how is your approach to internet filtering changing as kids age?
Thanks, Daniel K!
I'm so happy for the nostalgic colors and the bit storage. This will make things so much easier to keep track of. What product release are you looking forward to the most in 2026? And why?
Thanks, Anonymous!
I'm about to become a father, how would you all approach avoiding giving them some of your worse or just inconvenient habits. Also, tech suggestions for the nursery?
