My Favorite Website Is Gone Forever

Thanks, Robert S! Hi DL^2, I have always loved $5000 extreme tech upgrades, I can't believe it's been over 5 years since Emily had hers! Who initially proposed the idea, was it LTT or Intel? Seems like a hard sell.

Thanks, martin m! Turns out the water bottle makes a good self defense weapon. The down side is the police have my old one as evidence. But I still have my car, so that's a big plus. (Thank god for CCTV!)

Thanks, Michael L! Long time watcher and now recent floatplane subscriber. I have wanted these screwdrivers forever and am happy to support. If Intel fails in the GPU market, do you see other companies giving it a shot?

Thanks, Daniel K! Good evening Gents! I got tired of waiting for the bigger sizes to ever come. I decided to lose a bunch of weight.

Thanks, Daniel K! Good evening Gents! I got tired of waiting for the bigger sizes to ever come I decided to lose a bunch of weight. (150Lbs so far) Any idea when you folks will be coming out with the big sizes? Thanks.

Thanks, Ben B! Hey WAN.dll. With everything being so software/driver focused. Do you think there will become micro-transactions/DLC for graphics cards?

Thanks, Jean-Frédérick F! Hi DLL! What is your most memorable use of a tool that wasn't designed for the job you did with it? This evening my LTT screwdriver saved me by being a lockpicking tool to unlock my busted door lock.

Thanks, Derek H! Will the mod mats ever be released?

Thanks, Christopher S! Hey Fellas! I'm thinking of purchasing a retrotink 4K and getting rid of my 40" trinitron crt. What are some pieces of tech that you've come across that have rendered your old favorites obsolete?

Thanks, Christopher L! Hey WAN.dll, I got the Keyboard+WAN backpack lime deal but didn't notice that the keyboard got an english layout instead of the german ISO one. How come that the layout wasn't specific for the order?

Thanks, Dylan M! Tall shirts need to be a regularly stocked item. I've heard all the circumstances, but clearly the demand is there because they've sold out quickly at least twice now. Also I miss pre-tariff prices.
