Merry Christmas LLD. I hope Santa brings everything you want.

Hi Linus and Luke, Any chances of another Linux challenge, maybe this
time longer or using Arch? Anyways would love to see more content
like hardware benchmarks or other Linux content. My 3rd bottle
Thanks, Ryan E!
Hello LLD! Would you ever consider doing a Samsung Dex 30 day challenge? I watched your video on the NexDock and I have had a great experience with mine! Use it every day!
Thanks, Cody F!
Greetings DLL, picked up a screwdriver as a Christmas gift to myself.
The wife and I stopped buying each other gifts and instead buy our own
gifts within a set budget. Linus, since you've been married
Thanks, Jack T!
I just want to shout out Jackson on the Customer support team! They went out of their way to help me with an order issue and I just want to say thank you! Also... Noctua Screwdriver!!!!
Thanks, John Z!
Excited to add the Luke pin to my Whale Pin Set I got at this past LTX.
Any chance at getting my hands on the pins of old staff members that were removed?
Thanks, Bryan R!
Hello LLD! What's your worst story about helping family members with new tech gifts? Is there any specific type of tech that seems innocuous just simple that you would never buy a relative as a gift?
Thanks, Daniel C!
Hi LLD! I love LTT Store's products, but as a local viewer it's often hard
to justify the pricey shipping for such a short distance. Are there any
plans to allow in-person merch pickups?
Thanks, Alexander M!
Hello, WAN show! Recently I started CPAP(Sleep) therapy, and the impact on my life has been nothing short of incredible. Has any piece of tech impacted or changed your life in a meaningful way?
Reply @Alexander M!
Those machines are super cool! I think laser eye tech has basically improved my life immeasurably. Basically cured a disorder that used to be incurable 5-10 years ago.
Thanks, Anonymous!
Dear LLD, I work for a helicopter modification company building EMS and Fire fighting multi role helicopters. Love OG & stubby drivers, adding a BP. Thanks for the years of great content Merry Xmas.
Thanks, Brandon S!
Sad to hear my backpack will only last 15 years instead of 30, but the point is moot because as soon as there is a V2 I will buy it when/if it is available. Keep up the good work!
Thanks, Jeffrey T!
Hi DLL! I use my computer for emulation more than I do for PC games. Are there any plans to include emulation benchmarks into MarkBench? Also, what console games will still hold up 30 years from now.
Reply @Jeffrey T!
Not entirely sure what is planned for Labs as it's all still developing.
Maybe will become a thing in the future as that's pretty cool!
Thanks, Shelby M!
First time watching live instead of as a podcast, super excited! Finding myself starting too many personal projects and getting overwhelmed. How do you choose which projects to priortize efforts on?
Reply @Shelby M!
If you find out please let us know... I'm the same way. Basically you have to do some horrible math about how long you have, and want to spend.
Thanks, Jason Daniel S!
I have a moderate DVD/Blu-ray collection and I'm 'worried' about the physical copies. I have a NAS with Plex. What are some good 'backup' tools/software for me to backup my physical Media?
Thanks, Laefer L!
Got a Christmas Bonus can finally afford the LTT backpack. I live in Canada so add 20% to the price. When is the electro boom upgrade video coming out ?
Thanks, Anonymous!
Hey, LLD, I just got my Xreal Air 2 Pro glasses, have you considered daily driving a glasses based external display? I've been enjoying using mine with my Steam Deck.
Thanks, daniel p!
Working on my nas, do you recommend going with fewer large drives
or more smaller drives (currently have 24 tb and debating whether to
g0 18-20tb drives or just add more 8tb)
Thanks, Hunter F!
Hello LLD! First time shopper, long time fan. Currently finishing my degree in Data Analytics & Cybersecurity, struggling a bit with imposter syndrome and not feeling cut out or capable. Any tips?
Thanks, Frederik B!
Hi LLD, can we expect some more car content in the near future? As all brands stuffing so much computer inside of their cars. Merry Christmas!
Thanks, Jaden G!
Hey LLD, Linus, given your very open investment in Framework, how has your overall experience been being a relatively major investor/shareholder?
Thanks, Adam T!
As someone who regularly buys youtuber products, how many dollars would I need to spend to balance the $ missed because I use adblock? Would this be considered even trade?
Thanks, Anonymous!
Hi LLD got an iPhone 15 pro and found out I'm PWM sensitive which causes headaches due to OLED is this something you would do a techquickie on as there seem to be no information on this love the

Hey lld! Viewer since ncix, If you had to start your YouTube career from 0 now, what will be the advice you will give yourself to accelerate growth? Thanks for years of entre
Thanks, Lukas A!
Merry Christmas guys! Seeing that Linus color codes his bits with different color screwdrivers, do you have any suggestions for color coding cable ties?
Thanks, Justin G!
More specialty bit sets coming? Bits like the Apple Pentalobe, the Nintendo "Gamebit", inverted torx, etc. I would definitely be interested in "Gamebit". Could maybe do Retro Screwdriver bundle???
Thanks, Eric R!
DLL, I'm a 23year old starting a career in legacy media digitization for
large companies. It's both audio and video formats from 1960 to 2000.
Is legacy media worth investing my early work experience?
Thanks, Forrest T!
Hi Linus, My Christmas wish is a shirt or jacket from LTTstore.com with sleeves that fit my freakishly long arms. Can you share any updates on the timeline for lanky boi sizes? - A long time fan
Thanks, Anonymous!
I still have orders from Black Friday that didn't ship.. Why does the processing take so long? Now people won't get their screw drivers :(
Thanks, Luke M!
Hello wan.dll! Linus, I heard you talk about Chained Echoes on the show a while back and picked it up for myself. I am enjoying it so far but what's something you liked/didn't like about it?
Thanks, Tony H!
Hey LLD! I saw some of your videos on 3D printing, any future plans on showcasing really high end printers that use metal/Carbon fiber filament? love to see some cool 3D printed merch on the store.
Thanks, Hunter G!
Hey DLL! Have to buy a new Screwdriver because someone stole my
work tools from my truck. What's the worst thing you've ever lost or
had stolen?
Thanks, Thomas C!
TO MY TOP YOUTUBERS THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING IM A RADIATION
METROLOGIST, I USE THE STUBBY AT WORK, IM A BIT OVER PROTECTIVE
SINCE ITS SOO SATISFYING. WHAT TOOLS YOU USE ARE YOU OVER
Thanks, Joshua C!
Hey Linus, Dan & Man with the Face Pin, Was there ever a product you reviewed or used where you went like, "They should have known better!"? Basically Experienced Company, Dumb Product.
Thanks, Adam G!
Hey DLL, Figured this was the perfect time to pick up a water bottle to
go with my BP. Really appreciate the TMB voucher for getting a single
layer BP. Certainly not necessary but much appreciated!
Thanks, Jordan L!
Loved the ASL discussion last week! I actually took my first ASL class this fall! Aside from cochlear implants, what new tech do you think may help deaf and hearing people communicate with each other?
Thanks, Joshua C!
Alright Gents... As 3 strapping lads with glorious facial hair, I need advice on starting to grow a beard and maintaining it. Any recommendations or tips for me?
Reply @Alek K!
I think I'm going with... it's complicated. Games are so massive now I think it's impossible to get everything perfect. But that ends up as an excuse to launch broken stuff.
Thanks, Kyle H!
Hey DLL, wishing you all a Merry Christmas. Linus - last week you mentioned that the meme face mouse pad sold poorly, just want you to know that mine sits proudly on my work desk for all to see.
Thanks, David H!
Linus, I love where you're going with screwdrivers, but, watching your video on the prototype long/thin screwdrivers will you ever consider swappable bits?
Thanks, Kyle H!
Picking up the mystery driver with the backpack discount. I've order all the color waves so far... what's coming after noctua and metal?
Thanks, Nick G!
Just flying back from Disney on my honey moon Linus what did you and your wife do for your honeymoon and have you built a light saber yet?
Thanks, Jeff S!
Does LTT have an internal policy for AI usage? My company is rolling one out soon, and while I understand why, it scares folks away from leveraging the tech.
Thanks, Michael G!
Hey DLL, I work in the hearing aid industry and one of big new things
now is Bluetooth Low Energy Audio and Auracast. What are your
thoughts on the BLEA
Reply @Michael G!
I hear (sorry) the batteries are terrible. So that's pretty exciting that the technologies are increasing it. I love medical tech so so much.
Thanks, Peter S!
Hi WAN Show, greetings from austria. I am looking to buy a handheld for productivity and gaming is there a chance we will get a comparison between the current options (Deck, Ally, Legion Go, GPD, ...)
Thanks, Luis D!
Hello DLL. First time buyer, long time viewer. Any updates on when the
WAN hoodie will be available again? I've been waiting for it with my
Christmas bonus in hand. Greetings from Mexico.
Thanks, Jordan H!
How much is too much to spend on a single game for DLC (new content not skins) for yourselves? i.e. The numerous routes and trains available for Train Simulator or sims expansions
Thanks, Mirco S!
Will the Noctua screwdriver be available in the Noctua store in future
so that europeans could perhaps get them faster (if not cheaper)
Thanks, Max V!
Are we going to see more on-location videos soon? (Factories, R&D labs, data centers, etc) There seems to be a lack of those kinds of videos lately.
Thanks, Jared R!
Hey LLD, recently at my work, we had a bug with IBM hardware that
stopped us from using a GUI to make changes. What's the biggest bug
that's stopped something in your guys’ production?
Thanks, Andrew M!
Hey LLD, Picking up the new pin, I noticed that the link for the bundle of pins doesn't seem to be live yet. Also is there an update on the bread plush. BREAD! BREAD! BREAD! BREAD! BREAD! BREAD!
Thanks, Eduardo C!
Merry (soon to be) Christmas to WAN staff. I'd like to know your
thoughts on internet speeds/prices, I've seen that some countries have
to pay a set amount of data, over here @ Mexico we pay for spee
Thanks, Kevin V!
Linus's intentional trolling regarding "episodic" games as acceptable when they're just an excuse to half-a$$ content makes me a sad panda.
Thanks, Lloyd L!
Hey Dan, and I guess Luke and Linus, What are your thoughts on ShareWare? The concept of paying little or nothing for a small/short first level along side having a full retail version??
Thanks, Dominick R!
Hey DLL, do you think we'll see any major shift in hard drive, SSD or cloud storage that might bring costs down? My NAS is getting old but high capacity pricing has been flat for a long time now.
Thanks, Shea B!
Hey LLD! Love the show! love the content (long time audience member since the Langley house). What future projects are you most excited for in the next few years?
Thanks, Zachary L!
Hello to the whole team... Will there be a WAN Show on holidays? 2026 Christmas lands on a Friday! Love you all & Thank you for the great gifts:)
Thanks, Dylan M!
Good evening DLL. This question is for Dan: on a scale of 1-10, how angry did the worst of the snake-oil products in the recent DankPods vid make you? You seemed quite eager to disassemble/smash them.
Reply @Dylan M!
I wanted to know how much they lied. No one will destroy a $900 device they bought to see. It's a rare opportunity. I think honestly it just made me deeply sad more than angry.
Thanks, Daniel G!
Since ASL was brought up and now that hearing aids (in the US at least) are now sold OTC, does LTT have any plans to incorporate them in quick reviews? I volunteer as a hard of hearing technerd!
Thanks, Anonymous!
Hello LTT!! How has the backpack debacle impacted how testing is now done for new products, and who tests the products or LABS or the creator wear-house team. Happy Early Merry Christmas!
Thanks, Matthew D!
I work for a small action sports shoe company (We own our own factory in Colombia). We use synthetic leathers/suedes made for a Central American Military. What "suede" your selection of apple

Heyo DLL, any updates on LTT cable management clip availability? My standup desk is jonesing for some magnetically held cable runs to tame the mess.
Thanks, Samuel P!
Hi DLL I'm attending CES for the first time as a PM with significant purchasing power. I'm in my mid 20s, introverted and don't drink, but have been invited to several afterparties with vendors. Tips?
Thanks, Aiden C!
Week 3 (I think) of asking for gold screw driver, Linus, what would it take for you to actually make a gold version of the screwdriver? Hi Dan!
Thanks, Anonymous!
I'm using the backpack discount! Any plans for daily work bags? Laptop, some 20 pages letter size loose paper, 400z ltt bottle, a mug, lunch boxes and ice packs.
Thanks, Andres A!
Hi DLL, What would be a better purchase Rog Ally 512gb for 599 or steam deck oled 512gb for 549, BTW have you seam the prices of black shaft on ebay?
Thanks, Shawn M!
Hey, wan.dll super bummer about the 15-year hoodie delay. has there ever been a product on lttstore.com that almost didn't happen but you're glad it did?
Thanks, Jamie Y!
Hey DLL, Dan, awesome delivery on my merch msg last week for the
tall shirts in all caps lol. And to go with the question/convo about
colours, it doesn't matter, we just want tall LTT shirts. 3XLT pls
Thanks, Ryan S!
Hello LLD The brokenRGB shirt arrived recently and I have to say I think the material on it is actually your best one yet. I hope you make more like it.
Thanks, Jacob B!
Hi Dan! Your chaos and deconstructive ability is always a treat. Does
LMG intend to sell or distribute anything with the 3d printed projects or
files produced for filming?
Thanks, McKenzie S!
Are their any plans for new scrapyard wars. Would be awesome if you brought float plane subscribers to be the ones picking and negotiating prices.
Thanks, Colin J!
Hey Linus if you are still enjoying beat saber but hate the constant updates breaking mods you should try bs manager it can even install mods Only problem is it wants your steam password

Thanks, Quoc N!
Season's greetings LLD, Have you considered doing a video on alternative car infotainment systems using a pc or android desktop mode. The only pc car infotainment I have found used a Celeron.
Thanks, Anonymous!
Hey LLD, loving the screwdriver that i got. would you ever consider releasing tools for more niche hobbies? would love Plastic model nippers with the same overall quality as the screwdriver.
Thanks, dean v!
Hi Linus, Do you see the Cable Management tools releasing before the
$25 backpack coupon expires? or are there any plans to extend the
coupon? Seems a very short amount of time before it expires
Thanks, David K!
Hey Luke Linus and Dan. Luke, how do you manage to stayed focused on eating healthy around this time of year with the holidays? Merry Christmas to you all
Thanks, Matthew K!
Hi Dan, Luke, and Linus. Just wanted to say it's been a busy time for me,
but the Audiophile video with Dankpods had some of my favorite
moments this week. Especially Dan's reactions. Sorry Dan.
Thanks, Michael P!
summer wedding next year, any chance LTT can video water calling a tux. i have faith in your jedi masters of jank on this one. Love the merch and content
Thanks, Anonymous!
Hot take or cold? In an alternate world where 16:10 is the standard, PC manufacturers would make 16:11 monitors, and tech guys would say 16:11 is the golden ratio and 16:10 was a mistake. Thoughts?
Thanks, Samuel L!
My wife wants to know if there is any pink or girly mousepads on the
way. She's jealous of my ltt deskpad but wants a cuter design. Any
chances?
Thanks, Michael S!
Would love to hear your take on the EU law eidas article 45. They have been on a roll with good ones lately, this one gives me the ick. Looking forward tobtrying the undies!
Thanks, Alex M!
Just wanted to say thanks for reviewing the wing. I was unironically considering getting one just because of how boring and samey phones are now. Was general consumer advice for me.
Thanks, Nic M!
Hey! Long time viewer, first time buying from the LTT store. I'm as much of a tech/ game nerd as the next guy, but also enjoy a good board game. What's your favorite board game? TTRPG?
Thanks, Gregory S!
Luke, do you still watch The Yard. Currently binging the whole show and love whenever you guys come up. Hope the barn was empty though
Thanks, Mike D!
Merry Christmas LLD! Of the three of you, who is the hardest to choose gifts for and why? I hope you and your loved ones have a great holiday!
Thanks, Dominic F!
Hi LLD, just picked up some new things for my software dev internship starting in a couple weeks. What are some skills/habits to work on now as someone new to the field to increase my value as a dev?
Thanks, Lara M!
Hi DLL, tegarding luxe backpack, are you ordering small batches or are they actually made to order. If it is small batch, have you placed the first order for them?
Thanks, Robert B!
Hello WAN Crew. Question for Linus. What are some of the oddest or most interesting problems that you have had with your smart home setup? Odd dropout reasons, things not talking to eachother, etc.
Thanks, bruce r!
Linus, have you played golden sun and the sequel for GBA? It's one of the best rpgs I've played. Also looking forward to my first Ltt screwdriver! Work in building maintenance.
Thanks, Joel C!
Most of the fun of Scrapyard Wars was in watching how you obtained
the items. When will we get to see another version of this? Thanks for
always trying to have fun on these shows.
Reply @Nathan A!
we did some designs, and decided it would never get any screen time
cuz I don't wear them and no one here wears them so we said forget
about it -LS
Thanks, Russell H!
Oh, and Merry Christmas, Dan, Luke Linus and everyone else at
LTT/LMG/CW/FP/Labs/etc/ Forgot that trying to get pin order in
earlier ;)
Thanks, Anthony D!
Loving my windbreaker & backpack combo in unseasonably rainy Chicago! Question for all - how do you handle being told you are the best for a promotion by higher ups and developed for it but passed up?
Thanks, Jarred B!
Hey LDL, got my first LTT hoodie. Bad news, small rip in pocket. Great news, sent photos to support. Within 1 hour had a response. Got a replcment and kept original. I can "trust you bro's" thx Mitch
