  Mason L
Thanks, Mason L! Hi Linus, Luke, and Dan. Linus, have you considered a company town to avoid all these employee regulations? It could be good thing...
  Joshua O
Thanks, Joshua O! Yo DanTechTips, for good computer gaming sound, would you recommend a TV sound setup or a specific PC type of setup
 
Reply to Joshua O
Reply @Joshua O! Depends on budget. I'd probably recommend a really good gaming headset, or Samsung soundbar if you're couch gaming. Or go full ham and get monitors.
  Jake P
Thanks, Jake P! Evening, DLL. I purchased a PSVR2, fired up Beat Saber, then promptly smacked my hand against my desk. I finished the song to find I had reopened a recent cut - blood everywhere. Any absurd injuries?

  Nick M
Thanks, Nick M! LLBean, Any chance of deeper IT/Eng/DevOps vids? ie K8s, KubeVirt, distributed local Al platforms (e.g. Red Hat Al, llm-d, LlamaStack). I'm deep in that space & those topics are huge these days!
 
Reply to Nick M
Reply @Nick M! Might be some fun FPX content.
  William B
Thanks, William B! What happened to LTT Towels? Are they coming back? Easily the best towels I've ever owned and I'd love to buy some more.
 
Reply to William B
Reply @William B! DO I HAVE NEWS FOR YOU
  Asa D
Thanks, Asa D! Any updates for the sound panels? Are they sound dampening or for preventing reflections?
 
Reply to Asa D
Reply @Asa D! I think they are on a VERY lengthy pause. I was excited to do the wan set with them. :c
  Nickolas W
Thanks, Nickolas W! Love the content from you guys. Im confused, how come the switch 2 being bricked if you mod/hack it bothers you? Its been there since the Wii and the other platforms do it to. Big deal cause Nintendo?
 
Reply to Nickolas W
Reply @Nickolas W! It's just a horrible thing to do. How can they even tell? Idk it's just gross.
  Jacob M
Thanks, Jacob M! Hello LLD, I love the show. when starting the Lab you talked about the vision you had for the future. Do you think you've met your own expectations or exceeded them? What's the next big plan

  Robert O
Thanks, Robert O! Apple again doing Apple things, "borrowing" 10+ year old features from their competitors. Wait, how long ago was Vista? Oh...
  Allison W
Thanks, Allison W! Just got my daughter the switch 2 as her first console/gaming device. What was your first gaming device and game you got to play? Mine was a Gameboy color with Pokémon red.

  Ivan Z
Thanks, Ivan Z! Can you see a GPU in the next 5 years being sold at a loss? As manufacturers pivot to prioritizing AI it seems like an option to claw back some money from failed chips. Something something write off
 
Reply to Ivan Z
Reply @Ivan Z! Highly doubtful. Maybe from another brand.
  William H
Thanks, William H! My wife is currently putting together an Amazon purchase with the cheap screwdriver it came with. She looked over to me, pointed at the TV and said I need thier screwdriver.
  Rishabh J
Thanks, Rishabh J! Hey Linus, how are the LTT cables coming along? I recently had to purchase a lot of cables for my Level1Techs KVM switch and was annoyed that many cables are low quality and don't have proper labeling

Thanks, Brandt Bowling B! I'll be listening to this when I mow next week. Luke, is floatplane using any AI tools for development? Linus: in Linus Town who would be the town sheriff and deputy? Bro tanks when?
 
Reply to Brandt Bowling B
Reply @Brandt Bowling B! We're trying to but no one will use them. Linus would be obviously.
  Robert R
Thanks, Robert R! Hi DLL, My question is how come your laptop content seems limited to just unboxings, like is setting up windows the same? How do laptop GPUs compare these days? And more importantly where's the jank?
 
Reply to Robert R
Reply @Robert R! Probably Framework investment disclosure.
  Richard H
Thanks, Richard H! I use my screwdriver at work all the time. I keep consuming the same bits and having to buy combo packs to replace them. Can we buy packs of all one bit? I would love to buy a 12 pack of #2 flatheads

Thanks, Phil H! Could you add some faster shipping options to international orders, even if expensive? E.g. I'm unlikely to be able to get this backpack before my trip in 2 weeks and would happily have paid for it!

Thanks, Shawn K! Heck yeah! Catchin ya live! Considering the catalogue of LTT videos, would the floatplane dev team ever build a tool to search the backlog of LTT videos to search through the tips easily?
 
Reply to Shawn K
Reply @Shawn K! I think we were looking at a cataloguing system that some company does. Scans every single video and allows you to search for weird things in them like lamp.
