Hello. Up until 2021, I have been using a Dell Latitude XT, a roughly 18 year old laptop. Had to jerryrig solutions to broken hinge and bad battery. Done anything similar?
Thanks, Julian S!

Hey LLD! As someone who's an engineer within the theme park industry, do you have any interest in touring/checking out theme park attractions? Truly some of the most jerry rigged tech solutions.

I just bought an Alienware OLED display. It's my first OLED display.
What should I play/watch first to best enjoy the difference between OLED and IPS?

HDR in general. Anything with high contrast. Lots of darks and blacks. I find it just makes everything better. It's a different experience.
Thanks, Eduardo H!
Greetings from Chile, i had a shipping problem with you a while ago, did
you make some change to the shipping method or i just get lucky when
it arrived?
Thanks, Igor B!
Hello DLL! Last WAN you talked a bit about Pebble and watches. Have you looked into Garmin Instinct 2/25? It has always-on mono display, HW buttons, 3 week battery. Maybe you could check it out? WDYT
Thanks, Mitch B!
Anti-cheat engineer here, please get this to DLL because I can tell
they're confused on how this works. AMD is 100% at fault and the way
they did their feature is exactly how a cheat would act...
Thanks, Tymofiy O!
Have you thought about adding short circuit-like videos to your products? Buying something like a 250$ jacket based only on photos, and not seeing it live is a hard decision. I won't return it from EU
Thanks, Kyle W!
Back to the Kaleidescape topic from last week. Would you consider
doing a video knowing the bit rate is higher compared to uhd disk.
65Mbps vs 50 on avg. Do those extra bits matter? You own a theater
Thanks, Brandon W!
Hey DLL, last Sunday I accidentally ran over my LTT Backpack - good news! So far only casualties are an LTT bottle & hand sanitizer. Laptop, USB sticks, etc all lived! Can I send in pics? Where if so?
Thanks, Michael M!
Hey DLL I've worked at facilities where we shut down once a year for a week or two to do regular maintenance. Would you consider doing something similar for a planned yearly production break?
Reply @Michael M!
Might be something to consider, but probably would be more productive to implement a system of consistent change management. We're people not machines.
Thanks, Robert K!
Hey WAN.DLL, what is the highest FPS you have ever gotten in a test? Glitches don't count. I recently played Midnight Club 2 on a modern machine and neared 400 fps, the game engine wasn't happy though

have you ever considered hiring/contracting a dedicated event
coordination team to handle events like LTX and Whale LAN?

I see that you bought the LG wing (I'm sorry). As someone that did use one for about a year I can say that it was a great fidget toy, but its battery started to go bad very fast (50% in 5 hours)
Thanks, Alex M!
Howdy Howdy LDL, what are your thoughts on the home assistant team announcing Wake Word functions for DIY local voice assistants? It can even integrate with chat GPT for more fluent conversations.

Linus, I'm not super tech-savvy or a gamer, but I religiously watch LTT videos for the lessons on business, decision-making, and ethical practices that I carry over to my own business. Thank you!!!
Thanks, Jordan J!
Y'all have talked about the passion for tech you look for in employees.
So, what are your thoughts on the 32 hr, 4 Day Work Week and the improved productivity that's been demonstrated as a result?
Reply @Jordan J!
Linus has talked about it before, but it's certainly something to consider. Who knows what we'll be moving towards. Still lots of change humming away inside.
Thanks, Jeffrey B!

Hey DLL! Quantum computing has been growing rapidly recently, how impactful do you think quantum computers will be, and what timeframes are you expecting for it to reach the masses?
Reply @Rohit R!
It seems to be only good at certain things. Beyond the death of traditional encryption, it's uncertain at the moment. Maybe AI will integrate.

Hey LDL, With the recent demise of Linuses fold, what are some other unfortunate ends you and/ or people you know have had with their devises?

Hey Linus and Luke! I just got a new iPhone 15pro yesterday. Any updates on your testing between the different places it's manufactured in terms of the heat issues?
Thanks, Devin H!
Was hoping to get 2ea: Headphone, Sensor, Mountain and Northern Lights shirts. Why is it taking so long to get these back in stock? Can I get them added to this order if they are back before it ships?
Thanks, Heiko T!
Greetings guys :-) I just visited an IT-Security Expo&Congress and
looked at some interesting credential managers for single sign on, MFA
and password secrecy. Do you use something like that?
Thanks, Daniel O!
Completely ridiculous hypotheticals, week 1. You have been turned into
a frog. You have 10 minutes until your SO gets home, who hates frogs.
How do you convince them you are the frog?

Shout out to the LTT Backback. Got hit by a car last week, and it not only
took the hit like a tank, it cushioned my fall. The hospital cut my LTT
underwear though, so needed a new pair :(

You mentioned the need for Android or iOS. Having done the linux challenge what changes in linux phone operating systems would you need to see before trying something like GrapheneOS? Proton phone

Hello LLD and Future me, is there any reason to update to Win11? I remember that on the start there were problems with some CPUs, but I don't know if there's any benefit now.

Hypothetical about the Microsoft acquisition: What if the FTC is going to fight for a sweetheart deal for Sony like the EU did for Ubisoft?
Thanks, Daniel G!
Hi LLD. First time watching live and the first time purchasing from
LTTStore. How do you envision the future of LMG in the coming years?
Thanks, Ethan M!
Hi LLD! Currently knocking out midterms and procrastibrain is looking
to do desperately anything else. Have you ever wasted a bunch of time
on productivity software/note-taking system/personal wiki?
Thanks, Anonymous!
Should I get the stubby or normal screwdriver? Can we expect other tools soon? Perhaps, more excitingly, now that you have a materials expert, SOCKS? (darn tough has an awkward international warranty)
Thanks, Damian S!
Are there any plans to sell the long sleeve blanks, or sell more designs on the long sleeve shirt. I wear long sleeves under my uniform in the winter and would like to purchase some blanks for work.
Thanks, Neil L!
Linus, have you considered buying yourself or Luke a Sony phone? Been using one since 2020, I don't think they get enough credit. Unlockable bootloader, headphone jack, no notch, stereo speakers, SD card
Reply @Elias M!
Go do what you find fun and interesting. At school I'm sure you'll get
exposed to lots of the different types of things that go on. Whatever
attracts you the most go for.
Thanks, Nathan B!
Hi LLD! I remember seeing in an older WAN show there was mention of a testing program for plus sized clothing and getting feedback. Is there any update on that? Or did I miss the sign up train
Thanks, Kevin R!
Hi DLL! The feature I miss most from older laptops, is the ability to hot-swap massive chunky batteries. What is a now missing feature from computers of the past that should make a comeback?
Reply @Kevin R!
Mine uses dual hot swap batteries. They even each have little buttons
which tell you what power they are at. They exist, but my laptop is...
$14,000 USD. That's why.
Thanks, Dennis P!
It should have had black zippers or gold now I have to unstitch it and
fix that please consider this as an option in the future! Much
appreciated PS excited for cable management hopefully that's so
Thanks, Joshua S!
Iam an IT Feild technician, and the LTT screwdriver is always my go to

making genuinely high quality hardware!

I've been waiting for this bag for a long while since seeing yours on stream. The 6 month wait will be tough. Hopefully worth it. Thanks!

Another little tiff with google play music being gone: YouTube music STILL does not shuffle music randomly. Shuffle is the same every time you shuffle the same playlist.
Thanks, Toran A!
I run a YouTube channel with my friend that has recently been monetized. We're trying to be more entertaining and "vocal" when recording, any tips on how to get in that mindset?
Reply @Toran A!
Yelling when on camera is basically talking normal on camera. Think like, you're trying to have a conversation with someone in the next room.
Thanks, William J!
DLL, ever looked into Mainframes? Modern computing seems to center around x86 when a ton of work is still done on IBM zOS systems. Figure with their ubiquity and uses IBM might give you access.

Grabbing these to start building a guitar setup kit. Has anyone at LTT thought of working with Devin Townsend for the Music PC? He's an amazing Canadian musician that I think would make a cool guest

looking for some new ideas and motivation?! Thanks!
