Thanks LMG/CW for all the content and products I got in 2022. Can't wait to see what drains my wallet in 2023.
Thanks, Harvey N!
My grandad says that if something is great, buy two of them. Thus, my
question is whether (at some future point), backpack 2.0 is coming? If
not, I'll buy a redundant backpack 1.0 - it's godly.
Thanks, hallowelt100!
Hey Linus, regarding the more creative content you make (e.g. different projects) do you ever fear of running out of ideas and what would you do if that case occurs?
Thanks, Maria S!
Hi guys. Thank you for repeating the windows Standby thing! I was just buying to ask for that topic, your Scheme worked, don't know if thats good or bad hahahaha
Thanks, Anonymous!
Hey guys, are there any plans for labs to review routers/APs? I was recently shopping for one, but it was really hard to compare the range and speed of different models, since most reviews were standalone
Thanks, Lyra B!
Been loving the show and channels, and finally decided to pick up a
screwdriver. Hope you all have a wonderful New Year and here's to
2023!
Thanks, YuG P!
Linus, I am studying Energy and Sustainability, you are a big advocate of sustainability such as packing! Is there any prospect of LMG hiring someone like me to make a plan of how can you run your assets on
Thanks, Csaba I!
I contacted GPD because I can only charge on my USB4 port (WM2).
They basically answered - Compatibility problems... So what?! LTT should check these kind of companies too, before endorsing a product

Thank you all for years of Tech tips and news i hope you all have a great new years. i was also wondering when the 64 oz water bottle will return.
Thanks, Stu R!
As an IT worker, I *love* the backpack. I love it so much that I have decided to get my wife and kids each one to use as a carry-on for traveling. The only problem is that it only comes in black. Are there
Thanks, Ali A!
To Linus: Did you and Yvonne always plan on having 3 children or did your plans change after you had the first kid? Also do you think mid twenties is a good time to have children assuming financial stability?

Last week you were looking for a password solution, have you looked into bitwarden? I use KeePassXC and while its great for a single user, it doesn't really scale. W/whatever solution you choose, I personally

I find myself having to do a lot of research as | look into smarthome
devices for compatibility. It would be awesome if there was a site like
PCPartPicker where as you "build" your smarthome, it adjusts

1st time merch message (had to work out you have to checkout as guest) It looks like you use both GSuite and 0365 (Teams and GMail), how does that work, and why not just use one platform?
Thanks, Christian A!
Hey guys, I am a streamer and am considering a second PC to handle the outbound parts. What do you recommend? I am open to both custom and prebuilt, but am on a budget. Also, I found doing this merch

Linus and Luke, I work for a large construction company and we all love the water bottles I have turned a ton of people onto them. One thing is they get dinged up bad in cup holders any idea for silicone protectors?

to LTX, and staying with family friends while in Vancouver. Any
suggestions of great places to visit while in the area for the week?

Last week you talked about the Lastpass breach in August. As a costumer of theirs I'm now looking for a new password manager. Any recommendations?
Thanks, MagosDante!
Linus, can you please comment of merch shipping updates. Discord
merch channel has become a giant unmoderated complaint channel.
Some misunderstanding and some frustration as there haven't been
Thanks, Isaac n!
Love the show. Have you done a video on MS power toys? the power toys run is a much better search than the garbage windows ships with. Maybe a short on each bit?

Hey Linus, I've been watching LTT since you guys were filming in the

Is it safe to store anything in the cloud knowing that quantum
computing will eventually break current encryption? Once you give
your data away...

Just ordered 2 new flannels. Question for Linus, have you looked more
into using jellyfin instead of Plex? I'm looking to make my own media

With all the LastPass stuff going on, it was mentioned you were going
to change password managers to something like KeePass. Are you
going to do a video on which you choose and how to set it up?
Thanks, Nicholas H!
With the LastPass break I am currently looking for a new password manager. Have you guys considered making a video on something like self hosting bitwarden or something similar?

Howdy hey gang. Just got my first Raspberry Pi. Was wondering if LMG

Orca ticket . See you at LTX
Thanks, Patrick N!
As much as I love microcenter, they don't expand enough and the nearest one is 8 hours away. Whats up on Linus and Luke creating a similar store and launching in Nashville TN?
Thanks, Alexander G!
Are you aware that you made the exact same video about purchasing a best buy pc this week, 2 years ago, and also 6 years ago? Are you running out of ideas? Are you a fraud? Are you just 3 Lukes in a trench
Reply @Alexander G!
All our editors use computers from Best Buy and all the writers and Linus has 4. It's the only way we can get new computers. All our videos runs on pre-built systems.
Thanks, Cody P!
Do you guys own any IPv4 address space for things like floatplane etc?
If not is that something you would ever consider? Also a video about
setting that address space up with BGP would be cool! Cody -

When will the motive t-shirts be back in stock? Shipping is a lot to Europe, would like to order together and waiting to order a screwdriver.

Bought my mom the puzzle for Xmas and we're still only halfway done with 3 of us working on it on and off. She just shouted multiple obscenities at y'alls while working on it. This puzzle is painful. It hurts

Linus, as a minivan owner, have you considered buying an electric
minivan when they become available, like the VW ID Buzz (when the 8
seater comes out), LDV Mifa 9, Zeekr 009, Voyah Dreamer, etc.
Thanks, Ben H!
Would it be possible to get/show more detailed sizing info (Jacket
Length, Sleeve Length, etc.) for the Workshop Jacket? I'd love to get one
for my partner, but she's somewhat vertically challenged, and wants to

I have to answer in around ten seconds. It's not easy. I am typing straight for 3 hours sometimes. I love getting to do this. <3
Reply @Tirth P!
We're looking at alternatives now. I think Linus only plays Anno and have no thoughts. Him and Luke deciding what to play? Ends in them just not gaming.
Thanks, Mike D!
Hi Linus. You regularly talk about using rechargeable batteries. Is there a particular brand or model of charger and batteries you would recommend for someone looking to make that investment?
Thanks, Josh W!
How do you feel about the Samsung IFixit partnership, where Ifixit is providing Samsung parts to repair all sorts of parts for the newest of phones?

Dan's voice is heavenly - when can we get a channel or more vids of

listen to him all day and | know I'm not the only one
Thanks, Robert R!
Hey Linus and look, received my first LTTstore order today, chuffed to
bleeping bits with it (UK viewer) My question is: what one thing would
absolutely need to do before you kick the bucket?
Thanks, Aaron O!
My friend and I were trying to compare performance but have very different displays (I've got a 5K2K ultrawide, and they have a 144Hz QHD panel), is Pixels Per Second a valid metric?

Hello Luke and Little Linus Horne! Apart from Taskmaster (thanks for
the great recommendation Luke), how have y'all been keeping
yourselves entertained lately?
Thanks, Arturo C!
Thank you Linus and Luke! Been watching since the NCIX days and appreciate all the years of content. P.S. sorry for blindsiding you but thank you for the quick selfie during PAX 2016!

Hi Linus & Luke! Long time viewer, first time buyer. Question for both of you: what is the most useful piece of tech you have ever bought?
Thanks, Rohan M!
As a linux user for over a decade, i love the attention LTT brings to things that shouldve been fixed years ago (even if i dont always agree with everything - extentions =/= file types). I would love to see more
Thanks, Tim G!
After getting drywall dust in my WAN hoodie, the workshop jacket will
be a welcome addition to my ever growing LTT jacket collection. Thanks
for the great products!
Thanks, Johannes M!
Hey Linus. I was wondering what the state of the cable ties is right now. A lot of styles seem to be sold out. Will this be restocked anytime soon? If not I will need to go for a non-matching color.
Thanks, Arman G!
Wanted to know your thoughts on gender bias in tech even though its
meant to be unisex. e.g. VR headsets being a better fit for male heads
and facial dimensions.
Reply @Arman G!
Businesses seem to play to their demographics. I think we're seeing
more marketing towards women as companies have realized they are a
growing demo.

What are your thoughts about paid software requiring payment for bug fixes? Renewed Vision charges yearly for their software for new features but also includes bug fixes for previous versions.

Thanks, patton421!
My family is made up of farmers, tradesmen, shade tree mechanics, etc. and they all love the screwdriver. So now, I'm ordering several more to handout as gifts.
Thanks, Tanner A!
I worked tech support for a company that handled document signing/sending/etc for county-level govts in the US. Every *single* issue I handled would have been entirely prevented by automation.

@Linus: with the way your brain doesn't see ads, wouldn't it be fair to

Trying to buy an Index, I noticed that the tax was ridiculous. Looked into it and I found that the rate was set to whatever county in the state being shipped to had the highest (over 20% for mine). Support told me I

Hello Linus & Luke, any thoughts about our reality driving closer to SAO / VR becoming too close to reality? This is especially seen of the Galea Headset & Elon's Nueralink too becoming closer to the Anime.

How often do you find that you don't have the bits you need in your LTT screwdriver handle? Do you also carry around an iFixit kit or something similar?
Thanks, Tucker S!
I built my first pc around an 12th gen 17 and GTX 1650 because of part
availability. I'm compelled to try Arc a770 for gaming, do you think the
immediate gains are worth the risk to see better drivers come out?
