HELLO DAN! I feel cheated, you did not provide me a hello back to my last merch message during Lime Day! I demand 2 Hello's as compensation!
Thanks, Avery A!
Hey DLL, Any updates on a potential Scribedriver mechanical pencil? I loved the original pen but sometimes I really just need a pencil.
Thanks, Anonymous!
Hello LLD! Will there be more VIP tickets to Whale LAN? There were only 4 of them and they were gone in less than a minute and I didn't get it :(. Why only 4?
Thanks, Crystal F!
You spin me right round.DLL! Linus, why did you go with orange for LTT? And would you ever switch it to blue? Excited to see y'all at Whale LAN!!!
Thanks, Vasilis X!
Hello big fan of your videos, a large popular topic has always been "how much vram/ram is required in current year" but what about storage? What would be the minimum amount of storage to have in 2025
Thanks, Jorge A!
Hi Terrance, Phillip and Butters. When are you adding background playback to
Floatplane on iOS. It's been years, and it can't be that hard to implement. Hell, I'll code
it myself for my portfolio.
Thanks, jay b!
Would Linus ever interview with a legit therapist to find out just how much of a narcissist he really is and make the video about positive mental health similar to the water video....
Thanks, Brogan C!
Saw the short for the Fidget Spinners and said, "What a great method to recycle CPUs." While I am here ill grab that multi bit set! Hope customs doesn't ruin it up like they did my Screwdriver!
Thanks, Michat D!
Whale LAN! Let's go! I will be flying from Poland and this will be my first time in NA, so I'll take a 2 week trip across Canada and maybe USA. As Canadians tell me - what places should I visit?
Thanks, Dawson L!
hi DLL, I've bought a lot of your products over the past year or so and have
recommended the screwdrivers to friends, and coworkers of mine love the backpack,
keep making these quality products! <3
Thanks, Anonymous!
Hey DLL, what is the most flagrant example of corruption you've seen in Vancouver?
In Montreal a developer offered me 10k cash to get help circulating a pro-development petition with elections upcomin

Hey DLL : What are your thoughts on Wealth flexing Youtubers, and their influence on kids. Do you worry kids will have an unrealistic expectation about money, and how hard it is to get certain things?
Thanks, Tony C!
Hi LL&D, Backed the Hacksmith EDC Knife and wondered how it feels to have your bits be considered in their design. Are you aware of other products that have considered LTT in their design?
Thanks, Zeke R!
Sending this from a plane, love the WAN backpack! More than worth its price. When designing the backpack, what made you go with the internal bottle holder? I was skeptical at first but it works great!
Thanks, Tyler F!
Good evening two and a half men! I know it's been mentioned before about the challenges of making kids toys, but what about kids shirts? I'd love to get my little one a breadsaurus shirt.
Thanks, Anonymous!
Hey, quick question: Would you consider selling replacement packs of sealing rings for the new water bottle lids? I lost one and now the lid is nearly useless to me. Buying a new lid would be wasteful
Thanks, Brandt Bowling B!
Ekul, nad, and Sunil thanks so much for entertaining me on my commutes or while mowing. My company just have us access to gpt 4.1 via Continue for code assist, Luke what does your team like to use?
Thanks, Jonathan H!
Hey Chief Narcissist Officer, the Guy Who Doesn't Know, and Dinger of Bells. 6 years of listening to WAN! Is there a form of media (podcast, book series, show, etc) that you've tried to keep up with?
Thanks, Kevin B!
If there were a small team of dedicated game developers on staff similar to the CW, Labs, Floatplane teams, what kinda game(s) would be made? Imagine having your own in-house games for benchmarking!
Reply @Kevin B!
It would be like FurMark but Linus’ 32k face with hairy pores. You slowly fly through
his mouth and it's infinitely recursive. Probably what happens when you die.
Thanks, Colin S!
Hello DLL, how would you deal with grandparents that struggle with technology?
Recently my grandpa got scammed, and was wondering if you guys have any
suggestions on how to teach them.
Reply @Colin S!
Not much to do but keep them being as skeptical as they can be. Create a codeword only you two know and make sure that is included in future.
Thanks, Sawyer L!
Hey guys, what ever happened to the mod mat? It was on the store for a while to sign up for notifications, but I haven't seen anything about it in a while. Did I miss something? Love from southern IL.
Thanks, Josiah K!
Dear Linus, Luke & Dan, I recently learned a coworker of mine's ex is a fiber-optic engineer & 1 of 10 people in N.America able 2 do that, what niche jobs do you see as priceless in your sector? 💖 LTT
Thanks, Alexander M!
Hey DLL, I recently rewatched the big move, I feel that the style of ltt has gotten much more "professional". Do you guys miss the vibes of early ltt?
Thanks, Cody H!
Evening Larry, Curly, & Moe. A while back someome asked about a video or 30 day challenge regarding alternative mobile operating systems like Graphene OS. Is this still something you may do?
Thanks, Anonymous!
Mr. Tech Tips! You mentioned you bought 5 pairs of badminton shoes since they are
essentially consumables. Do you wear them evenly or use one until its worn out
before using a new pair?
Thanks, Ronan G!
Hello BEARD MAN YES YES, Luke, and Dan! Have you given any thought to a Colin Furze style tech bunker? It could make for a super cool video series! Excited to receive my CPU spinner!! Yall the best!
Thanks, Konrad F!
Hi LLD. | got a Zenbook Duo for uni after your ‘First Look’ video. It's great! My question:
Did anyone actually daily drive the 2024 model, and why is there no full review for
the '24 or '25 versions?
Thanks, nathaniel r!
Have you seen hacksmith's multitool? Would be pretty cool to sell on your store if a deal can be worked out, also pretty cool that the pro version is made in Canada.
Thanks, Christopher H!
Hey LLD! First merch message here. I have carried dead CPUs to fidget with for years.
Would y'all be willing to post the 3Dprint files so I can repurpose them a little more stylishly?
Thanks, Richard W!
Hi DLL, My cat loves his pet cave, why'd you ship it in cardboard? He wanted to keep
the box too. Do you have any more pet products in the pipeline, go on tell us
something you're not meant to.
Thanks, Chris C!
Hey L-L-D, with 4k monitors seeming to be the peak of PC gaming, do you think there will be a point where gpu performance will peak and each successive generation will offer less performace gain?
Thanks, Logan G!
Hey LLD. Question for Luke. What things do you think are most important for developers right now in the current employment environment ment.
Thanks, Anonymous!
NEW STICKERS!!! :D I'm a fellow mind-all-over-the-place boy who just got promoted as a firmware engineer!!! thanks a lot for everything; yall inspired this path in me 7 years ago! keep optimist-ing!
Thanks, Cameron P!
Hey Luke, have you come to a conclusion on the dual sense controller yet? I gave you one at LTX lan and I just wanna know if you like it or hate it??
Thanks, Raul D!
Hello! Viewer since 2017.What tech tip can you give to a new CS master's grad on a
student visa in the US? been job hunting for 3 months and keep getting ghosted after
4-5 rounds and is frustrating
Thanks, salvador r!
HEY LDL! I've recently completed my degree in GIS (Geographic information systems)
Is there anything LTT does with GIS to enhance operations?
Thanks, Destry R!
Luke as a "if I don't use my muscles and stay active I get sad" person as well, I find it hard to find time to relax and rest. I know you also like the grind. What helps you relax and feel better
Thanks, Gavin P!
Hi Wan Show! With win10 support leaving in the near future, how much e-waste will be generated from perfectly good working machines that can't make TPM 2.0 requirements of win11? RIP my Threadripper
Thanks, Luke K!
Hello handsome bois. I've been teaching Spanish and French for the last 7 years in US public schools. If you had no choice but to start teaching, outside of technology classes, what would you teach?
Thanks, andrew e!
I'm in the market for a New monitor. I'm looking for a 27 Inch, Main gaming monitor, There are so many options! Hopefully budget around 400 USD. Any suggestions? Should I focus on refresh rate or 4k?
Thanks, Chris L!
Gday from Australia. I've bought a bunch of stuff over last few years, all great gear.
Just wish I could justify adding the WAN Backpack to my collection. Keep up the good work LTT/CW team.
Thanks, Austin B!
First time buying during WAN. I'm currently a software development supervisor of a small team of 3. But we are growing to 8, any tips to manage a larger team?
Thanks, Crystal F!
You spin me right round.DLL! Linus, why did you go with orange for LTT? And would
you ever switch it to blue? Excited to see y'all at Whale LAN!!!
Thanks, Cameron T!
Dear LLD Glad to see Grip tape for the screwdriver I'd been hoping to see that for a while. Another product I've been curious about is if y'all have thought about making shoes.
Reply @Kyle M!
Luke isn't the best person to ask honestly. He's fallen into things in a bit of a weird way as we all have. He loves a REALLY good portfolio of real projects though.
Thanks, Saxon W!
Hi DLL, Linus — curious, what made you decide to go with a non-folding phone this
time? With the Fold 7 now out, are you at all tempted?
Thanks, Jason T!
Hey Linus! If the fidgets are e-waste, where did you source them? I desperately need an electronics recycling hookup in Vancouver ASAP.
Thanks, Darren L!
Hello 3 musketeers. Linus, I was curious where you get your "Linux ISOs" I'm in the process of digitizing my library and have come across some that have issues and want to join you on y
Thanks, Andrew M!
Hey L&D, it was nice to talk to you at OpenSauce. I had the coin with a dragon. I have YT premium and wanted to hide shorts from my feed. The ways I found focused on freemium add-ons. Is this a problem?
Reply @Robbe S!
Had someone do the brakes on my car because I didn't have the time. They forgot locktite and they ended up falling off during a road trip and nearly killed me.
Thanks, Zoe K!
What games do you guys dedicate spending your free time playing? How do you balance your all time favourites against making time for new releases? How much time do you have to game in your free time?
Reply @Zoe K!
I like to play a little of a lot of games. Normally spend more time in the ones my friends want to. We all dont have much time. I know Luke plays EVE at work. Allegedly.
Thanks, David R!
Cameras, which ones do I get for my house? Poe or wifi? Make my own nvr or have
Jake recommend ubiquity?! What do I buy with a low to mid budget?
Thanks, Anonymous!
I once described you as a "professional layman". You pretended to know less to ask questions as the audience stand-in. I notice you seemed to have passed this torch to Elijah, was that on purpose?
Thanks, Derek P!
Hey L-Dan-Sandwich! Linus, working nights so I didn't see you, but I saw DADOLD's go-kart selfie. Did you intend to make the meme face, or do you just have Resting Meme Face?
Thanks, Anonymous!
Are there going to be restocks of desk pads in different sizes in the future. Also I love breadasaurus so much but don't know why it's a meme
Thanks, Anonymous!
Class of 2004 here finishing my degree. Linus did you ever consider finishing your degree or getting a 2 or 4 year. Would you encourage your kids to pursue education or work experience after HS?
Thanks, Ethan C!
LL no D is there a noticeable change in engagement/viewership on your WAN shows that have either of you calling in rather than being in person? ngl I dont tent do listen to or watch the shows with thi

Hello Lan, Duke and Dinus. Just saw a post talking about a software-defined radio (SDR) as a module for the Framework 16. What are your top bucket list Framework modules?
Reply @Rohit R!
Cup holder. Please. OEM. Please. Honestly I'd love to see something like a lightspeed adaptor. Investment disclosure. Linus has invested in Framework.
Thanks, James D!
DLL. Fellow Vancouverite. Have you ever considered doing more cyber security/hacking videos? Or possibly some colabs with other hacker youtubers?
Thanks, Miles H!
Whats up LLD! I was hoping to hear your opinion on the best smart home hardware for keyless entry (fingerprint, pin code, ect..) to use for my 10 year old getting home without a key? Thank you!
Thanks, Roberto P!
Linus, With how much the Samsung fold has improved with the Fold 7 compared to the one you drowned years ago & Pixel fold being really good as well, do you see yourself daily driving a Foldable again?
Reply @David D!
I really love making some tool holders for the tools needed to work with the printer. Then normally upgrades. Then you find nails to hit with your new hammer.
Thanks, Justin L!
So excited for Whale LAN! Frantically figuring out a scrappy "gaming" computer setup to travel from US to CA. Any games we can expect that I should confirm are working on this POS?
Thanks, Jack R!
Hey from the UK! LTT, Luke & Sir Dan! I hope you're having a good evening! Any idea when the Scribe Driver will be back in stock? I love the one I already have but want another, it's so good!!!
Thanks, Sven O!
Hi Dan and the help, I mostly watch via VOD: y'all ever considered sending an email with a rough timestamp of when your merch message shows up on stream (if at all)?
Thanks, Koby S!
Hey LDL, Do you guys think we will ever escape the candy bar phone form factor and
if so what form factor would you guys like to see become popular?
Thanks, Carlos B!
Linus and Luke, now that the FFVI vs. painting the bike challenge is over, what's the
next challenge? And why not include Dan in the next one?
Thanks, Hayden F!
Love the sustainability. Any chance could get the specs on holes drilled and
bearings? (maybe 3d files of housing) to create fidget spinners from our own am(x)
processors? Or just a kit w/o the cpu?
Thanks, Brandon M!
Hi DLL question for dan. Crab rave is used in videos. Is it a good song for evaluating how good a speaker sounds or is there a better one? If so what?
Reply @Brandon M!
Any song you know well and listen to on many systems is a good song for evaluating speakers. I have a playlist of reference songs that I know how they should sound. CR is a meme.
Thanks, Joshua T!
Hi LLD! I once saw Luke boarding the same flight and just gave a quick nod of recognition as he passed by. Do you appreciate those small gestures of recognition/ when you're busy with your day-to-day?
Thanks, Abby W!
I am currently training for a marathon and listen to the WAN show on my Saturday morning long runs. Any plans for athletic clothing in the future?
Thanks, Brian C!
Hi dllwan, I coded a real-time drag/drop staff & patient tracker w/alerts for my office, ESP32 standing desk controller, & smrt thermostat—all with Claude.ai. Vibe Code: real-world DIY follow-up?

REBOOT ft. Linus Sabastian as Mike the tv. Also starring Luke and scoop Lafrienier as Bob and Glitch, and who the bucket is Daniel Besser!?

Luke, while not a direct replacement for Call Screening, callcentric has a screening feature requiring callers to press a random key on their VoIP numbers. Use it with automatic forwarding and VoIP

How are you guys utilizing AI at LTT? Tech company I work at has it part of our performance reviews and we're pushed to use it more often.
Thanks, Anonymous!
Hi LGM, I heard your discussion regarding the PS4 discontinuation for Genshin Impact. While I enjoy the game, I agree with your points and it sucks that some players are basically left out now.
Thanks, Dillon B!
Leenus Leekus Leedan. Thanks for the gear, I'm ordering this for myself for my upcoming 40th birthday. Can I have a cake? On a serious note, consider Tech Semi for a project idea. I'd be glad to help!
Thanks, Phil S!
GPU 5090 fidget spinner when? Jk jk, but what is a piece of tech that makes you feel most hopeful about the future? Environmentally, medically, or even in just the casual tech space.
Thanks, Isaac K!
Any updates on when the RGB shirt series will return? Absolute favorite shirt you've ever released and will be buying 10+ when they return. Also, any new colors planned? I love the failed Blue RGB.
