Thanks, John S! Hey DLL, love all you videos. I'm interested in a Framework 12, but I was seriously turned off by the price of ram, Do you guys think that the Framework 12 is in trouble unless the price of RAM falls?

Thanks, Chris G! My father passed away Monday and it made me remember my introduction to technology and his stories of punch cards when he was younger. What do you all remember about your first introduction to tech?

Thanks, Anonymous! Linus, what's the story of the CRT Desk ornament lamp? It was teased forever ago and is still on sets. [No I wouldn't buy it]. If blank zip up were in Brick it'd be in my cart =(

Thanks, David D! In the Phantom Menace, they manage to install a salvage T-14 hyperdrive unit all by themselves with seemingly no proprietary info/tech from the OEM. Did the Galactic Senate pass Right To Repair?

Thanks, Tyler P! Hello LLD! Hope y'all are having a good night. I'm really picky about my sweatpants and t-shirts, but I fully trust Linus after his last t-shirt rant about cotton vs polyester, as I feel the same way!

Thanks, Aaron G! Whalelan has been super fun! Has there been any thoughts on using that space of smash champs to host other gaming events (like fighting game tournaments)? Also LTT hockey jersey when

Reply @Aaron G! Just WHALE lan for now! There's way to many complicated laws that we had to work with to even be allowed to do the lan.
  Christian L
Thanks, Christian L! Hey Linux, arch, and by the way! Have you guys ever thought about revisiting or exploring more natural fibers like wool? Maybe for a winter wool jacket or leather belt/messenger bag or shoes?

Reply @Christian L! Always working on new stuff. New materials are something we're always exploring.
  Chris N
Thanks, Chris N! I use Fedora for my work machine that does some gaming and my experience has been great. I only ever had to touch the terminal twice. Once to install Citrix for work & once for a wake on USB issue.
  Alexander L
Thanks, Alexander L! Hey DLL, do you think there's any hope Win12/13 ever get any better or has that ship sailed? I'm still on 10 (1 know) and don't really want to upgr, but also find Linx tedious when I just want to game

Reply to Elijah C
Reply @Elijah C! Sounds pretty normal for current year.
  Jay F
Thanks, Jay F! One thing to remember about negative Linux community comments is that the people doing work and fixing things are too busy to flame you in the comments :). Good luck! (from a Gentoo linux developer)

  Mauricio H
Thanks, Mauricio H! Hi guys, going back to linux, last time I had a good experience was 8 years ago with Solus, an indie Distro, heard of it? also, preloading drivers and utilities shouldn't count as a "based in" distro!
