Considering all the innovations that have come in the last 5 to 10 years
in the automotive space, why have motorcycles lagged behind?
Outside of BMW's cause who can afford those. Wish I could fit more
Thanks, stefan b!
Screwdriver for my father as a retirement gift, he'll kill me if he learns the price. Can you make a silicone bit holder for the shaft? 18 bit capacity would be a treat and it could carry 6 long bits.

In the world of ever growing GPU heat sinks, computers are pouring
heat into our gaming rooms at higher and higher rates. What options
can we take reduce that output while still keeping our PCs cool?

Hey TaiWAN DLL is there anything you've seen behind closed doors that you can or can't talk about yet that you're excited to get your hands on/make a video on?
Thanks, ramon k!
Hey Linus, I play FPS games at 1000dpi with a mouse capable of
16000dpi. A single swipe equals a 1080 spin on a freshly installed
game, forcing me to use only the lowest 10% of game sensitivity settin
Thanks, Kolton L!
Hey! Finally getting a water bottle so excited. I wanted your thoughts in the future if they develop AI to the point where it has reasoning and emotions would they deserve rights. Would it be Slavery?
Reply @Kolton L!
At this point it kind of devolves into philosophy. There's a lot of good Sci-Fi on the topic. We use animals as tools, but we're nice to them. Would it be the same?
Thanks, Brenden L!
Hi DLL! If space wasn't an issue, What collections would you three like
to have ? One day I want all the iMac G3 color ways, but I've already
filled the fianceé approved shelf (Happy Pride to Emily 💜)
Thanks, Corban B!
Do you ever change the titles of videos after they're released? Multiple times now I've started a video and tried to find it later, only to find it with a different title. Am I just going insane?
Reply @Corban B!
You're not insane! It's important to do horrible eye grabbing titles in the first few hours of a video, then you change them. Just algorithm things.
Thanks, Nika O!
Hey Dan, Linus & Luke, just built my newest PC & needed a new desk pad so glad I could get one big enough for my whole desk. Would you ever consider doing other solid color desk pads?
Thanks, Philipp K!
Hi DLL, why not hire people from abroad to work from there? For example Dev's. With todays technology this shouldn't be an issue or is it? Long time fan, love you guys!
Thanks, Bede S!
Hi LL&D, Linus u said last week that u like Pebble bc of the physical buttons and basic features. Garmin watches have weeks long battery & physical buttons so they might be a good sucessor to Pebble

Traveling for work later this month, not quite to TaiWan but I'm sure everything will be safe and organized with this LTT Store purchase (backpack, tech sack, etc).
Thanks, David K!
Whats us boys, are you guys familiar with the DKOldies controversy going on? Where they sell refurbished consoles but dont refurbish them.
Thanks, Anonymous!
You should know better! Too many of your reviews, (esp. Short Circuit), the reviewers will laud products for having HDMI 2.1. All new HDMI certifications are 2.1 with any new feature just optional.
Thanks, Craig M!
Hi DLL, I need reading glasses, so my Polos shirts NEED a left breast pocket ): Any chance of a Pocket Edition Polo? Looking forward to socks. Sandles/shoes & sunnies? I'll be full LTT xD
Thanks, ANDRES A!
I want to buy a pair of your backpacks, but don't know if I will rather the leather one and smaller one. Have you consider making available the purchase or bonus an sample of the leather material?
Thanks, Josh O!
I'm super interested in hearing more about those Airlet coolers. I really hope LTT gets their hands on some soon and starts sticking them to handhelds and stuff. It's really exciting tech.
Thanks, Michael H!
My wife gave me a shirt for my birthday 2 weeks ago and was sent the wrong size so we got this gift card. Last week she went into labor during the wan show. No we didn't name the baby Linus or Luke

Hi LLD! Me & 2 friends are sharing this order ‘cuz shipping to Mexico
sucks. I want to leave my safe IT job so I can enter the TTRPG book
industry; how do you evaluate if a passion is worth pursuing?

For me, it's if it causes my brain to lock into it completely. Like I'm talking 2-3 weeks of locked in hyperfocus. I want a passion to ruin my life.

Podcast listener here! I'm the sound engineer/tech director at a theater

Fun fact: google LTT store and linus is shown. What is your "white whale" of a video game studio that you'd like to tour, you've been able to get the hardware side with intel. Mine would be CCP Games
Thanks, Ben J!
LLD, as large of a company as you are now - have you thought of a video about who at the office has the most unique or interesting desk setups?
Thanks, Kate C!
A huge youtuber with 24mil subs stole a clip from my (700 subs) channel and used it in a video with currently 14mil views. He never asked, and is ghosting me. Would LTT ask before using otherscontent?
Thanks, Robert K!
What's a good way to get the kind of solid know how you guys have w/out the money to play with tech the way you guys do and is there anyone that does what you guys do but from a software perspective?
Reply @Robert K!
The expensive tech is just larger versions of cheaper stuff you can get at home. The skills translate. Not sure about the software tech youtuber. Lot of it is far more individual.
Thanks, Zachary W!
Hi DLL. What are your thoughts on a system where IP trolls loose their IP after a certain amount of frivolous lawsuits. They would need to make an affirmative defense to why they should keep it.
Thanks, Anonymous!
Hi to DLL. Love your work. Any idea when the ABC Book Plushies are coming back in stock? I have friends on their second kid and they already have the ABC's of gaming book from the first time.

Thankyou for the many years of content Linus, Luke and the team.
What is the most bizarre piece of tech you have seen at Computex so far this year?

Hi (tai)WAN.dll, i was wondering if you knew of any interesting pci uses? if integrity wasnt a issue, i think an interesting use of pci5 would be inter-cpu networking. turn a rack into a multicore pc.

Hello LLD! Is there be any plans on exploring commercial and industrial tech such as electronic cash registers and point of sale systems, or security systems like CCTV, alarm and door access control?

Hi TAIWAN show, why isn't there a "save for later" section for the cart on the LTT store? I currently have a list of li want on the LTT store and this feature seems like it would be nice.

Im a rollercoaster maintenance tech who uses your screwdriver on a daily basis, do you have plans on developing in other tools that could be useful for industries outside of tech?

Just want to shout out Dan on his Bambu P1P review. Just want to mention that their support is as good as the product. I had an extruder motor die today after 2 months of use and they ACTUALLY HELPED

What is your opinion on products that allow you to play retro handheld games on TVs such as the analogue pocket? think they are worth it or would it be better to just emulate?

Hello Luke+Linus. How do you think AI will affect gaming in the near future? do you think it will make them lazy and slap it everywhere instead of polishing the game or will it be more conservative?
Thanks, Jonathan F!
I'm finally upgrading my 6700k and 1080ti build after years of faithful service to a 7950x 4090 (and a new desk pad). What's the longest life you've gotten out of a major piece of hardware?
Thanks, matthew j!
Hey Linus and Luke what's your thoughts on future games using physics based sound. There is a cool program called Angies Engine simulator and it seems very interesting.

Hi LLD, I'm 16 and do more robotics techy videos on YouTube. In the early days of LTT, how did you stay motivated and how long in the future would you say YouTube would still be a feasible career?
Thanks, Austin O!
Good evening(?) Dan and Dan Assistants! I'm loving the screwdriver! I can't wait to buy the stubby for my day pack. Is there any chance you branch make more tools? (other than the Kohlbar...)
Thanks, nathan k!
Hey Team, Sinus here. I'd like to see more of the labs. Are there no two bird one stone content that can be made there, ala refurbishing or reorganizing?
Thanks, Steven !
hello lld. been listening to the play list you listed on a previous wan.
can we get a new playlist of songs to listen to. I've been on jelly roll and
Ryan Upchurch lately.

Hi LLD, I've noticed the title of some videos change between them going live and later that night. Have you seen major changes in views when changing titles and when do you know you should for a video

Is there any way to rent gaming perefierals around Vancouver for LTX?
Getting this nice big backpack to travel to LTX from South Carolina

Hi LLD, can't wait to see you at LTX. Do you have any suggestions on how to repurpose old gaming PCs? I have a hardline water cooled 3700X, 1080Ti build that isn't getting used.
Thanks, Zachary l!
Love the show guys:) I'm going to replace my plastic water bottles with these NICE LTT water bottles. thanks you all so much, great job

Hey Dan and Company, finally getting my wife to wear some fine LTT clothing. When can we get some more flight sim content? I have been getting into it myself and it's a lot more than I expected.
Thanks, Jezzel C!
As AI becomes more prominent, how will it look within the walls of
LTT? What kind implementation (if any) would there be? Love the
content and thank you for bettering our knowledge of the tech world
Reply @Jezzel C!
If we can find a lot of tools that it is useful for, then it will get integrated. We won't be hammering in nails with a Ferrari when we can use a Colton.
Thanks, Rick H!
Big fan of my current desk pad so I bought more for my other desk! Any thoughts on the news that reddit is reportedly planning API costs that will effectively force 3rd party apps to shut down?
Reply @Rick H!
Really horrible. I hate that sites are doing this more and more. Both with trying to grab all the data, money, eyes and becoming like each other. Won't be using Reddit without RIF.

Do you thing biology will start playing a part in improving tech, such as how they use "bee chips" to detect explosives in a handheld device. Love the show & can't wait for the smaller bag as well!

Hey dl, I have a coworker whom I got into the WAN show. He has been having a really hard time lately with the declining health of family and I wanted to see if you'd shout him out, his name is Kylar.

Cannot wait for the LAB to get up and running fully! Looking at building a new pc and forgot how difficult it can be to determine parts without real data. Excited to see what to come
Thanks, Samantha N!
I want some Taipei 101 tuned mass damper content. Why isn't Alex at the tuned mass damper? If he has some content. I want to see it.
Thanks, Diego Hernan U!
With the advancement of AI content generation, do you think a future is possible where the content one sees and listens to is on consumer demand? And if so, how can copyrighted content be protected?
Reply @Diego Hernan U!
My intuition says that you just get fed content you like, generated on demand when you watch something. The AI knows what you need at the moment, and pulls it up in real time.
Thanks, James B!
Just wanted to say that I'm super excited for the Labs, I keep wishing
there was a site with actual data comparing products whenever
purchasing stuff, which you could cover everything lol. #FIRST!
Thanks, Steve K!
I don't know if this has been asked before, but if you're attending a staff member's wedding, is Crab Rave required for the wedding playlist?

between the inferno that is intel 13th gen and the thicc IHS of ryzen

Hey LLD! Was wondering if it is in the cards to create/partner to create custom LTT/shortcircuit/techquickie/etc themed keycaps (similar to what Keychron sent over in the review of the Keychron Q1)

Hi L&L. Greetings from Mexico. I've decided to start saving gift cards periodically until I get enough for the backpack. Is there any song that's sticking to you right now?

Hi Luke, If Floatplane began development today, given the higher performance of .NET over Node, is .NET something you'd consider or still use Node?

Hey Linus/Luke, are LTT employees allowed to use generative AI tools work? What about at Floatplane? If not why? Also, see you at LTX got into the Labs Tour! Really excited!

Hey Luke, Pixel owner here. Came for the cameras, leaving for the hard/software issues. I know you have some issues with yours. Seems like all brands have big tradeoffs. Any idea what you'll get next?

I'm wondering what the training sets are going to be for that. If it's just code execution or twitchy inputs it might fare better. But stuff like wall hacks may be more difficult.

Hi LLD. Any update on Windows Modern Standby? Haven't heard any updates since you heard from Microsoft initially. Also, only images of 2 sizes on the last few clothing launches.

Dear DLL, What games over the years have made you sad or depressed after finishing the story because you were sad the journey was over? For me it was TES Oblivion, AC Valhalla, AC3, and Witcher 3

Hey DLL! Is the music production PC testing still on the road map? It's just annoying that because of ignorance everyone defaults to a MacBook. Really intersted in the comparison in laptops vs PCs.

Hey DLL, closed my IT co of 16 years and got a job in HVAC Controls. The Controls industry now needs IT guys, since it's basically IoT. What other industries have you seen make that shift? Thanks!
