where the 2024 sticker packs at?!
Thanks, Jonny S!
I'd love to use in home streaming, but Wi-Fi latency is so bad. Wi-Fi 7 is
supposed to have better latency, but a 2 pack of Wi-Fi 7 APs is $1200
Plus! Do go for it or just build a dedicated TV PC?
Thanks, Jesse G!
Just wanted to let you know your master plan worked, I was inspired to work in IT and now my company paid for me to order the department LTT Screwdrivers.
Thanks, James A!
Hey WAN.DLL, my child was born during last week's show (uk time)
which explains why I'm awake for THIS weeks show. Any tips for
remote grandparenting, as my folks live overseas.
Thanks, Daniel W!
Hello DLL, I recently started building my own WIFI enabled LED-strips, with mini controller (esp32). Would you consider making a video about DIY-RGB vs. brands like GOVEE, regarding difficulty & price
Reply @Daniel W!
That's what we use for the table! We recommend posting video ideas in
the 'Video Suggestion' section of our forum! www.linustechtips.com

With fiber networks becoming more common, offering gigabit speeds
in most cities, would there be a bottleneck when connecting fiber to
cable or fiber to Ethernet to the PC?
Reply @brandon T!
Fiber can functionally support any speed depending on the end points.
Copper is getting harder to get faster. At 1gb an issue is only copper
length really. 25-50gb? Maybe.
Thanks, Kevin R!
Linus, As an owner of 3 Chevy Volts since 2013, I obviously think it is
one of the best vehicles that i have owned and driven. What do you
think about GM bringing back the plugin hybrid? VOLT gen 3!?
Thanks, Ryan S!
It feels like some LTT store plugs in the videos are scripted and others are not. What's the real ratio and how many store plugs end up on the cutting room floor? Would also be down for bloopers
Thanks, Josh P!
Hello, I love your screwdriver, have you thought of sending one to
Adam Savage at Tested? His YouTube is all about the maker world and
he loves quality tools!
Thanks, Edward A!
Hi LLD, I recently had my 3080Ti die on me with no explanation. Have you experienced any GPUs giving up unexpectedly? Treated myself to Noctua screwdriver + mouse matt. Thx, love from the UK :)

Hey DLL, Thinking about building a new home server to use as a NAS
but want to get the most out of the hardware. What are some other
useful things I can do with a home server once it's up and running?
Reply @Joel W!
Linux ISOs, home made Dropbox, backups, shadow copies, VM. Like, all sortsa stuff. I use Proxmox on mine and basically it's just a computer.
Thanks, Ethan N!
Any thought into a different bottle lid that could use the bottle as a sort of bladder of water like a Camelback? Would be awesome to be able to use it as both that and a bottle when on rides! Thanks!

Embarrassed to say I'm doing to my first build in around 10 years and I fell for an Nvidia release 😥 get a 4070Ti Super should last a while at least

Hello Dinus, Duke, and Lan What is a time a solution to a problem caused more problems and how did you deal with the problems that came from that solution?

Anytime I see to upgrade my home workstation it causes problems because no I have one computer and can't troubleshoot the problems with my problem system. Just had to buy more.

Loving my LTT screwdriver for lots of non-tech tasks, including IKEA assembly. Any thoughts on making an IKEA-centric bit set? IKEA hex sizes, Posidriv bits instead of Phillips, etc?

Howdy LL&D! What are some of your tech ticks? Messy desktop, users confidently using tech terms incorrectly, or even personal ones like having the volume on an even number or a five?
Thanks, Damon L!
Purchasing my second screwdriver in Retro colorway! I just snagged a 5900x for $198 brand new. I currently have a 3060. Should I try to upgrade my GPU along with it? 4070 Super, 4070? Thoughts?

With doing LANs how do you handle the possibility of someone bringing an infected computer that could infect others accidentally or not?

My favorite is a weed whacker nub thing. You're always hitting it on the ground and it gets worn away. 20 mins later and you have a new one. 10/10 best print.

Linus, during the live build of the Wood PC you started to say that you didn't pick the name "Linus Tech Tips", and that it "wasn't even up to you", I would love to know the rest of that story.

I used to play board games all the time! So much is tech these days I guess. I guess I kinda get excited about plants. Nothing like a new succulent. Lately pottery is neat. ADHD.
Thanks, Jef V!
Hey WAN.dll! I have to agree that GPU reviews are too dense. Any chance that Labs will eventually allow users to select which models to compare for a given game/quality level? Keep up the good work!

Hey every one! First ever merch message. What is your favorite piece of tech that no longer exists and do you think it will ever return, possibly in a different way? Game shark came to mind.
Thanks, Eric J!
Would you consider making a bit holder, with labels, that could store all
the bits not stored in the LTT Screwdriver in one easy to access place?
Would be great for organizing in my toolbox.
Thanks, Tomass P!
Hi, LanDinusDuke. Any old-school things you (still) tend to do in IT, despite there being faster, simpler methods? I personally still continue to download all drivers manually from the manufacturers.

Hello LLD! I purchased my back pack a while ago and love it! I take it to
work everyday and found that I use it as my lunch box as well. Have
you considered making a lunchbox to go with the backpack?

Howdy DLL! I work as a network engineer and sometimes come across
LTT personalities on Cisco's Youtube channel. Is video creation/hosting
a service that LMG offers to companies?

Love everything that you guys are producing. I purchased the lounge pants, and the only concern I have is that the draw string is a little weak, in my opinion.

I got stuck on an extended family visit for the past two months... Did I miss the Christmas album drop? Do I have to wait for next year?

Hi LLD! Would you consider having a bug bounty program for lttstore or floatplane? Would you make keyrings with the same design as pins? People collect and use keyrings too.

Hey DLL, Is there any update on the labs cable testing project? At work we recently bought some USB-C to HDMI cables that was advertised to support 4K@60 FPS and they couldn't even do 1080P. :/

Hey DLL, I am a admin at a K12 school district and our gaming club is crushing the network. I am thinking i should set up a LanCache, does that need to be server class hardware? Desktop with a big HD?

Try it with non-server hardware and see how it performs! Remember, servers are just computers like everything else. An old cheap laptop might be enough!

Hey LLD, do you think you would ever review more fitness tech? Most fitness tech is overpriced with a major lack of features or expensive/predatory subscriptions. It's hard to find the good ones! TY!

Hey DLL, what has been the most unusual use case you've heard of for
the LTT Screwdriver? I'm currently re-building a 1920's shotgun, and
realized how amazing the super low back force is for antiques!

Hey guys, cheers from Brazil! About graphics cards, 1080p still going
strong on steam survey, and any game runs 1080p ultra 60fps on a

Have you guys sen the Brazilian modders that got 12GB of VRAM on a 3070? They apparently offer vram modding as a service in their repair shop for various GPUs.

I used to love Apple products because they "just worked" but sadly that is no longer generally the case, even if you are invested in the ecosystem. A -LOT- of Apple software is just buggy.
