Hi Luke Linus and DanDMan. Linus, what do you think of the state of VR in 2025?
Opinion on PC VR with the Bigscreen Beyond 2 to Standalone Quest hmds and teased
Asus VR
Reply @Sergio R!
We have a whole topic on the BB2! Both Linus and I have Index' and I'm kinda excited to try and potentially buy the BB2. Honestly the big issue is the games more than anything.
Thanks, Jackson P!
Hi DLL, I'm an electrician and have just begun seeing CAT6 become standard in new build houses, unfortunately still only in two locations (master bed and great room) what do you guys think is next?
Thanks, Ryan S!
Hey DLL! Assuming I'm not experiencing Temu Neuralink brain rot, Over the last few years I've noticed a slow decline in tech channels’ coverage of mirrorless/cinema cameras. Is this hobby too niche?
Reply @Ryan S!
Perhaps less money in it, and also maybe something more direct to YouTubers specializing in it. The cinema cameras are also more affordable and interesting.
Thanks, Adam L!
howdy.dll 🤙 I've enjoyed playing around with the "Charachorder" (a steno-ish keyboard). Can you think of any kb enthusiasts that'd enjoy reviewing it at LTT? Thanks for manv eniovable vears of WAN!
Thanks, Chaim S!
When reviewing low-end laptops where Windows is laggy, would you consider installing Linux Mint or something just to see if it sucks any less?
Thanks, Diana K!
Hey .DLL. I remember you saying you enjoy planting the seeds of a passion for technology, well I started my first job in IT this month after you planted that seed for me. Just wanted to say thank you
Thanks, Crystal F!
Hey WAN show! I don't watch but my son does(Hi Darian). His family is going through
it, they have a GoFundMe but it lost traction and they didn't raise much. Can you and
the community can help them?
Thanks, Daniel M!
Hey LL&D, Thankyou for everything, because of you I've learned so much about technology and became a POS engineer. I cant write much else due to the character limit so IJustWantToLetYouKnowYourAmazin
Thanks, Jennifer M!
Hi! Any idea when the super soft hoodie is coming back? Also, shout out to my husband Dan who is listening right now! Happy 9th Anniversary!
Thanks, Amir M!
Is it possible to use self taught skills and projects/hobby experience to get into a technical career without direct formal education? are project portfolios valuable to a company like labs?
Reply @Amir M!
Sounds like all three of us. Portfolio and experience certainly wins, but that certainly doesn't apply to any company. Does to us though.
Thanks, Garren O!
Howdy DLL, just put back together a Series X, failed HDMI repair to sketchy ebay help to back to me to now working. Celebrating the repair watching y'all! Cheers (with a Dr. Pepper)!
Thanks, Joel g!
Just wondering would consider making a rolling laptop bag? I have tried so many different ones and I'd love to see what you all design.
Thanks, Peter F!
Hi DLL. Are there any updates regarding cable testing? I got scammed on a type C to DP cable recently (it couldn't do 4k 240hz as advertised) and i was wondering if Labs is going to do cable testing?
Thanks, Anonymous!
these waterbottles are great. I have abused mine beyond belief and against all warnings. It keeps drinks cold for a super long time, doesn't break when I freeze it or dent it. 10/10!
Thanks, Ajinkya G!
Hi guys, watching today's show on a plane! I have a crazy idea that only you guys might possibly pull off! I need a backpack that also has wheels

Hi DLL. Can you reveal how many people submitted to the LTT/Larian backpack give-away? The estimates of me and my friend are more than 20 million apart...
Thanks, Colton D!
Hi dll, sending this because I can't wait for modmat; would love more details on how things are going. Luke, I think you should toy with minimal linux and window managers(DWM, Hyprland)also dumbphone
Thanks, Alejandro G!
Hey DLL - Thoughts on Pebble 2 relaunch only having a 30 day warranty and not having a locked in price? I cancelled my pre-order due to lack of a one year warranty, and not charging me sales tax.
Thanks, Alexis R!
Hi wan.dll I know Luke has played FTL, but have you played Multiverse? The best thing in PC gaming are these mods that keep adding gameplay. What are your favorite game mods? Saludos desde Puerto Rico

Name dropped you guys in an IT internship interview recently 90% sure that's why I got the job since I have no other qualifications. LTT ftw
Thanks, Ford F!
Why don't you guys interact with Youtube Chat during WAN? I know Superchats are broken, but as of me sending this message there are 10k viewers on Youtube, and only 1800 on Twitch
Thanks, Isaiah P!
Hey Duke, Dan man, and beardless Linus. I got a job in concert, any advice for my first job? Also in desperate need for tall t-shirts :(
Thanks, David J!
Hi guys, Sometimes on the main channel you use the Laszlo Supernova intro ... sometimes you don't. Whats the deciding factor? Is it the type of video? What gives?
Thanks, Connor S!
Hey Linus, Slick, and Dan! With the PSU Circuit channel going on a few months now,
do you guys have any plans for future LABs based channels? Such as a motherboard dedicated channel?

Thanks, Abrar M!
Hey bad cholesterol, question for Luke. As a machine learning researcher, I was surprised that you said you never used macos, since most people I know in the field use that or linux. Why is that?
Thanks, Alexander J!
We got a 30 foot wide 9 foot tall super ultra wide display installed at work today... and yes the very first thing I connected was a Nintendo Switch to play Mario kart... I mean I did some latency testing
Thanks, Fraser W!
Hey guys I recently got the stubby and I am super happy with its performance and portability however I'm disappointed that it can only use your bits, could you have not made it work with full sized?
Thanks, Joshua C!
Hi LLD, I had my precision screwdriver set stolen at work so now I have to buy a replacement! Sad but I need it. Could I swap noctua fans for my stovetop exhaust hood.
Thanks, Nicholas V!
Hey WAN.DLL; what is your thoughts on SteamOS coming to a PC near us, will you test run it for a month when it comes out to show us it can punch above its' weight class and dominate windows? thnx

Chad from the CA south of the border. I discovered the WAN Show a couple months back and really enjoy the commentary and banter between the team. GGs and keep up the great work.
Thanks, Joshua C!
Hi LDL! I've recently been dropping CAT6 throughout my new house and it has proven
a super useful tool to have on hand. Perhaps a wire fishing kit could be seen in your
catalogs future?
Thanks, Jacob K!
Finally have a reason to buy MCM (new house media console). Cables are coming up: any plans to offer wall power bricks to go with? As a shopify theme dev, would love to hear more about the redesign!
Thanks, Aaron H!

Thanks, Kameron S!
Hey, as a high school student, some night I am as late as 3 or 4 in the morning studying for tests. Do you any stories that you had to stay up very late and still had to function as a human.
Thanks, Kevin M!
Is it recommended to use the shaft of a screwdriver as a 1/4" socket? I'm an industrial electrician adding the screwdriver to my bag and I frequently encounter screws/bolts with a 1/4" head.
Thanks, Raistlin W!
Hi LTT/WAN I've been watching since the “Gaming at 16k resolution!" Video, I was just a senior in highschool then. It's the first time seeing the WAN live, and wanted to pick up a bottle to say hi!
Thanks, Mikhail P!
Hi L&L HI DAN, What do you think about current state of “smart” home stuff and IOT,
ive just gave on keeping up with the new stuff when heard about a touch screen on a fridge, is it still xzibit way?
Thanks, Jeremy R!
Hi LLD, with all the convenience tech has brought us, is there any tech you wished was never invented? For me, I'd say ransomware, recently lost all my photos from my nas

Luke, I'm 14 and starting a weightloss/ muscle gain journey. (not a question) I have tried this before but can't stick to it any tips?
Thanks, DeJoun R!
I spend too much on ltstore.com to not send a merch message. I have nothing to say other than you guys are great! Keep doing what you love! That's what we love!
Thanks, Denali N!
Hi Drunk, Dyslexic, and Long! At a point in my career where my usefulness/capabilities are externally limited. How do you handle the stress of waiting for the resolution of things beyond your control?
Reply @Denali N!
Normally that means it's a time for action / change. Sometimes it has to be intense.
But once that push comes it's either reside or jump.
Thanks, Loren J!
Hey DLL, I was asked to come back to my High School to speak at a Career Fair! (I'm an IT Systems Analyst). One talking point is "Do you see this career having longevity?". What do you guys think?
Thanks, Austin P!
hello Lan, Dan and the Man today is a sad day i lost my favorite hoodie: my swaket to
a bleach accident is there any chance they will return in the future
Thanks, Anonymous!
Long time watcher off and on, first time buyer. It's only stickers, because you don't have more pins in stock. Why does Linus hate them so? I love pins. ALSO LTT MICROWAVE is a wonderful idea.
Thanks, Jason A!
Hey DLL, the bomber jacket is the best looking of the clothes you've put out. I'm going to immediately put it in the closet for 7 months though, because I live in Texas. More products like this please
Thanks, Ryan G!
Hey Linda, Lucy, and Daniella, with how expensive AIB cards are, why cant we buy the card itself from AMD/NVD and add our own cooler like we do with CPUs? Would also make water cooling builds cheaper.
Thanks, Colin L!
I've ordered some PTM7950 and a screwdriver. I need them both for my new 9950X3D ProArt build next weekend, so I would like Dan to get them packaged and shipped. Take over for 20 minutes. Thanks.
Thanks, Alec B!
Water bottle fell out of my backpack and cracked the lid but it still hold water. I figure
that means it's time for a new lid and backpack.
Thanks, Colin C!
HI DLL I haven't finished last weeks WAN so don't know if anyone mentioned it but are you aware that the original plan for Epcot was a private city right down to the human testing by corporations?
Thanks, Keith G!
Hey former children, my co-workers have been arguing: what is the best playground equipment between a see-saw, merry-go-round, or swingset? what about if your intent is to ABSOLUTELY LAUNCH humans?

Have you heard of Edison Motors? I think you would find it interesting. They have made an electric semi truck. They are from Canada and they seem to have the same general honesty ideals. Cool company
Thanks, Jacob S!
Hi wan.DLL Linus, if you had destroyed the 5090 in the power connector video, what would you have done? Would you have published a video anyway? Would we ever have known? (Love you Dan <3)
Thanks, Adrian G!
hello wan show. as someone maybe getting into a leadership role, whats a good way to practice leadership skills besides trial and error

Just watch. Look, and have a gentle hand. Look at your other coworkers right now
and see what they are doing. How they work. Your needs will be your employees

First time getting a comment in live! I am considering getting a steam deck but have heard rumors that an updated version is around the corner - is it worth waiting?

Given that the Galactica reboot came to be in part over Moore's frustrations over a lack of consequences with Star Trek Voyager; I truly wish that he'd been the chief writer on the Halo adaptation.
Thanks, Chris K!
Hi WAN Mans, I think the OG steam controller gets too much hate. It is surprisingly high quality and the modularity it amazing for making games work. Do you think a Gen 2 would work?
Thanks, Bin H!
Hello there. I will literally subscribe to Floatplane in a heartbeat if This Just Movies comes back for one video review of Season 2 of Severance. Just finished the finale today so is this possible?

Hey WAN peeps, here in New Zealand we are in the process of passing Right to Repair laws. Our local electrical safety board says they have issues with safety of mains appliance repairs. Thoughts?

Hi DLL, I start next month with my new job which is digitalisation of manufacturing processes. As I am from a chemical lab background, how do I tackle learning coding the best way?
Reply @Benjamin H!
There is an insane amount of knowledge from YouTube. But it's best to always have a project in goal instead of just following tutorials. Know what you wanna learn.
