Hey LLD! Any chance you can provide an update on the status of the custom LTT Cables? I'm planning on overhauling my setup and want to wait so I can buy cables made by your team. Thanks!
Thanks, Peter S!
Time to finally retire my System G backpack, rip. it was great and even more impressive for being a Kickstarter. Excited for the commuter backpack hopefully it lasts as long as it's predecessor.
Thanks, Dylan C!
Hi LLD question for Luke and the dev team, I have just deployed my first application for my saas business and I did so in elixir's Phoenix w/ liveview and saw advantages and tradeoffs and was looking
Thanks, Andrew G!
Do you plan to test battery banks in Labs? I purchased a high capacity UGreen battery bank with 140W output but if I put a sustained 30W load for over an hour it overheats and shuts down above 80% cap
Thanks, 藍嘉!
I find that the views of WAN Show VODs on Youtube are dropping, is this a big impact on the profitability of the WAN Show or not, and why? Also could Linus please have a mustache for at least a month?
Thanks, Anonymous!
I got myself a Screwdriver a while ago, I recently showed it to a friend, and they loved
it so I'm getting them one as a gift! thank you for making such great products!
Thanks, Christopher B!
Hurray! The "talls” rejoice. Hey LLD, glad to see the pants in 32" inseam. Any plans for
a commuter backpack treatment on the cargo pants? Less pockets for less cost. Save
at least a phone drop in one
Thanks, Michael S!
"Water resistant" pants to match the windbreaker...when? I'd love them for my walks during rainy season. So excited for these longer cargo pants; finally!
Thanks, Joshua H!
Hello Minus, Muke and Man. How do you guys always have so much energy every week? What do you do to stay excited even when you aren't feeling it that day? Thanks for a great show!
Thanks, Mohammad K!
Any news on the mod mat? As someone who builds PCs as a side gig Ive been DYING to buy the LTT one. Been waiting with baited breath every Friday for an announcement.
Thanks, Anderson F!
Loved the recent video on DIY batteries! Of all the projects you and the team have worked on, which one made you gain the most "unexpectedly useful" knowledge/skills? Stuff that you end up using a lot
Thanks, Cole W!

Hey Dan, Lan, and the Man, here's another interest-free loan... If you became the Mayor of a rural village of 500 residents, what 3 technologies would you implement to benefit the citizens/staff? Thnx!
Thanks, Anonymous!
I'm specing a portable rack mounted PC to run content on our LED walls at festivals.
Any recommendations for chassis, cooling, dust control, ruggedness? I worry about bricking it in transit. Thanks D!
Thanks, Brennan B!
Why is it so important to companies to prevent unauthorized software from running on their hardware. Is piracy really a good enough excuse to prevent me from installing another os on my switch.
Thanks, Andrew M!
Hey Narcissist, Bird Person, and who ever the F is that one guy. Has LTT considered
working with Gamers Outreach? Recently a MC server helped raise over $800K for
gaming kiosks for kids in hospitals.
Thanks, Jackson v!
Hi wan team, wanted to get your thoughts on the iPhone 14 and on no longer having
sim trays in countries outside Australia and the uk. I' Australian and found this out,
complete culture shock
Thanks, aaron K!
Cool that you guys added Canadian pricing, been waiting for this. Always felt kinda
wrong paying in USD for something local, especially with Dbrand as someone from
toronto
Thanks, Michael L!
Hey LLD! Have any of you thought about getting into astrophotography? I have got some pretty shots of Galaxies, Nebulae and currently processing an exoplanet transit. All from my light polluted garden
Thanks, Sean P!

Thanks, Jonathan T!
hey LLD with uni and my job placing me on review have been happy with my work now but have extended it by 4 weeks how did you guys handle times in your life with just so much stress going on
Thanks, Antulio R!
Hello guys! I've loved all the guests you've had in the past like tom from intel and would really enjoy seeing them again. If you guys would, who would you all invite on the show? Thanks!
Thanks, Kristin G!
Hello, Linus, Luke and Dan. I amback again to ask about the possibility of another product like the Waffle Long Sleeve. It's my favorite shirt and I need more. Thanks for being awesome.
Thanks, Jamie F!
As a Final Fantasy fan, are you gonna pick up Clair Obsur: Expedition 337 Its amazing.
Also thanks for the screwdriver, didnt buy anything else!
Thanks, Siddharth C!
Hey LLD, how much does the game industry's future depend on GTA 6 being good?
With a billion dollar budget does a potential flop lead to a new dark age of only safe
bets from all AAA devs
Thanks, Michael A!
Hello Dan and the Talent, I wish these pants were in black because I have to wear that for work... Also, last time I think I said security torx, but meant security allen bits for SD/Stubby when?
Thanks, Robert B!
Thanks for the Great Price on the Screwdriver. Love the show. Need another for work.
Is there any chance on a Bit Storage holder for the extra bits?
Thanks, Joel K!
None of my cars have Android Auto. So many phone mounts are actual manufactured waste. Would LMG ever consider creating a fantastic phone mount? I swap cars too often to swap headunits in all of them.
Thanks, MAX Y!
Hi Linus, what gear do you wear when you ride your motorcycle? I usually just wear a helmet and gloves with a t-shirt, curious as to what you do.
Thanks, Nicholas M!
Hi LLD! How do you handle business operation management/planning & SOP? For example, my org has multiple monthly meetings to run decisions up the management chain for big business decisions.
Thanks, Anonymous!
Helloo Linus and Luke, im curious if LMG has actually intergrated generative ai in your workflows somehow? or does LMG look at Al as another overhyped tech phase?
Thanks, Jeff S!
I remember watching your videos a decade ago, and now coming back in my mid thirties. Thanks for reminding me of my passion around tech. Important to remember as an adult. Thanks!
Thanks, Jordan C!
Walla walla ding dong. what are your thoughts on an Xbox branded Asus handheld.
Will it be worth buying before the dedicated console?
Thanks, Jonathan L!
My apt building screwed up and my last order got returned to sender. I reached out to support but haven't heard anything! Do you think the new Nintendo news will deter modders from creating emulators?
Thanks, Chris G!
I finally get a screwdriver! What's the number one suggestion you'd give to someone starting a tshirt brand? I'll be screen printing all my own blanks
Thanks, Mohannad A!
Hello Linus. I'm trying to resist buying a motorcycle! What got you into it, how do you stay safe on the road, and how does Yvonne feel about it?
Thanks, Brandon W!
Years ago I remember a product being mentioned in a video. Sound panels that competed with elgato wave panels. Is that a product still in development and is there a way to find out in dev stuff?
Thanks, Sergio R!
Hi Dan, Luke, and Linus: I've come up with term for anticonsumer products: "SSLOP"
Service/Software Locked or Online Products. Goodluck have fun. Thanks for the Xmas Album
Thanks, Cameron C!
Thanks for the screwdrivers these were on my Christmas wish list but I guess I'm buying them for myself because of the deals. Soar-ee from America
Thanks, Nathan D!
Hey LLD thanks for being the only creators I know with merch actually sized for tall people! Any chance of existing shirts getting tall sizes or tall size sweaters/jackets?
Thanks, Christopher L!
Hello fellow Canucks, since we seen highest LAN party altitude wise, will we ever see
lowest LAN party? Like bottom of the ocean? Maybe we need a yacht to make this
happen
Thanks, Fabian L!
A while ago I met a guy wearing a shirt with his own face, naturally I said: Luke... Nukem? What is the advice on merch messages with gift cards for the global audience. Pls restock the chorma tshirt.
Thanks, Wyatt J!
Picking up a new water bottle lid. Dropped my Thirst Extenguisher the day I got it, and the lid broke of part of the threading. Figured I would pick up a MCM kit while they are on dii
Thanks, Quinn B!
Dee ELL ELL: I have been watching this show since the bright, lovely year of 2020. I'm a semi-retired 31y.o content writer and am now pursuing a CS degree. Tips for the word guy on tech path?
Thanks, Anonymous!
Any plans to make more t-shirts in 100% cotton (or more than 60-40 blend)? Not being picky, my body just does not react well to poly blends.
Thanks, Anonymous!
Thanks for the Canadian store option. I've been trying to purchase for a long time for
my man child husband, but it was always in USD with huge shipping cost to Canada.
Now my man child will be happy.
Thanks, John S!
I couldn't bring myself to pay $100 CAD for a screwdriver, but for $50 I'll give it a go.
Hope you have good margins on the joggers and desk mat!
Thanks, Jonathan Y!
Hi small medium and large, with entry level GPUs so expensive and with products like
Strix Halo and Apple silicon actually having decent performance, is the era of low end
GPUs dead?
Thanks, Yasin Z!
Hi Dan, Duke and Minus. If you were traveling from the UK to Canada, where would you recommend to go on holiday? Also what is with Ubiquiti and the paper launches of loads of out of stock products!
Thanks, Allen G!
Loving my thirst extinguisher! Getting a lot of compliments on it. Picking up the screw drivers before the price goes up, thank you for making quality merch!
Thanks, Brian Z!
Yay, LTT screwdriver sale! Just purchased 2 to replacement for one that was stolen from my car. Funny enough this was the only tool they took, passing over the others as they perused through my stuf
Thanks, William G!
Hey Ltt, with GPU being out of reach for a lot of people, will we see more retro gaming content on the channel. One of my favorite videos is Dan's first doing the Game Gear Screen Mod.
Thanks, Zachary R!
Salutations DLL! Will we ever get a FloatPlane backpack with the logo and blue interior? Also, any chance LTT/FloatPlane-branded playing cards will be sold someday?
Thanks, Joshua Carol C!
Petition - Make This WAN All Dark (Let Dbrand Shine) - WanAfterDark....... Linus what are the current challenges with having all non embargo videos being 48-72 hrs early on FP? I loved that OG perk of FP.
Thanks, Erik T!
How do you learn to be a manager after being the guy who was managed. Some of
the things I'm told to do don't fell right. I did not like it when it happened to me! Save
the cats! 🐱
Thanks, Benjamin A!
Living and breathing Tech for my whole life. Started with hosting Minecraft Servers for friends 10 years ago. Currently SysAdmin. Your content teached me alot during the time. Thank you and keep it up
Thanks, Ian R!
Cats are the kitty cats and they Dance Dance Dance and they Meow Meow Meow. I'm also sure they will enjoy the Pet cave. Glad its finally came back in stock. Thanks
Thanks, Andrew P!
How do the tall shirts compare to the american apparel Ram/GPU/CPU? I find myself wearing those 4 shirt majority of the time because of the length
Thanks, Riley B!
Great show guys, I work as a machinist making gps trackers for falcons, parrots, etc. How has your experience with the Tormach mill been and have you ever considered upgrading in the future.
Thanks, Roman P!
Missed the pre-used bags but I'm glad to be able to support the team after years of tech entertainment! Off to go watch the Secret Shopper early on Floatplane
Thanks, Jennifer A!
Hi DLL when talking about bricking switches you said modify "Nintendo account services" and not the console. Does this actually affect when making mods or to help not get attacks with the discord copy
Thanks, Leonardo S!
It's not that Linus doesen't think an awkward remark can be un-funny to someone w/o context, it's that he goes for it before having a chance to evaluate it (I do the same, ADHD) PS I0U a Luxe review
Thanks, Daniel J!
Any chance of seeing coverage of any music related tech? PLEK machines and modeling/capturing devices could cool to see the tech side of.
Thanks, Alexander S!
To all three of you... Do you think Canada will bring home Lord Stanley's cup this year, and which team do you think has the best shot?
Thanks, Mark A!
I love my LTT Indoor Hoodie, and the LTT Backpack. When creating LTT Labs, did you consider partnering with or purchasing RTINGs? Being that they are Canadian and tech aligned it seemed logical.
Thanks, Matthew B!
Hi DLL. Q for Luke: Wanted to hear your thoughts on Oblivion's EULA, which reads like a live service game EULA, My Favs: "THIS GAME IS LICENSED, NOT SOLD TO YOU" and “No mods”. EULA is on Steam Page.
Thanks, Trenton A!
Three things. Thank you for longer inseam cargo pants, buying tw in the US. I'm using my commuter backpack on a 2 two week trip and it has been absolutely amazing, lastly... I need my mat please 🙏 Thx
Thanks, Andrew e!
Hi LLD, any advice to a production supervisor of a factory to transition to a job that doesn't require directly managing 6 separate departments?
Thanks, Ryan M!
Hey LLD, What advice do you have for working through reorgs for teams that work from home? Previously on a team good with WFH but got moved to a team that is not as good at maintaining a good culture.
Thanks, Richard W!
DLL! With Framework's Srix Halo product coming soon, what fun projects do you have planned for it! I'm thinking about throwing mine into the hot wheels PC | bought at Tx 2023
Thanks, Thomas B!
Hi LLD.dll! I made a Coca-Cola Minifridge into a gaming PC case, build log on the forum. What other things do you think would make a cool custom case? Also thank U 4 make wan available as a podcast.
Thanks, Anderson F!

Thanks, Main D!
After hearing the news about airports still using floppy disks, I had to ask: is it too hard and costly to upgrade major equipment and software? Companies do still use DOS systems and COBOL.
Thanks, Joshua D!
Shout out to Customer Service for replacing my screwdriver that just kind of... separated. Question for the crew: Are they any products that you reviewed positively that now you wish you had excoriated?
Thanks, Andres L!
Hi guys and Thks LTT for the longer inseam for the cargo pants! Waiting more blanks, specially tall. From which country of South America were the t-shirts samples?
Thanks, Jasmijn Emilia K!
Just wanna say thanks to all of LTT, ordering from Europe isnt the cheapest thing still but ive bought every tool, bag and most garments. Always pleasantly unsurprised when I don't have any complaints
Thanks, Mohannad A!
Hello Linus. I'm trying to resist buying a motorcycle! What got you into it, how do you stay safe on the road, and how does Yvonne feel about it?
Thanks, Matt J!
Hello winus, duke, and man. The sentiment used to be that automation is going to
replace people in manufacturing jobs, but now it seems it's coming for white collar
jobs. What changed?
Thanks, Alexander S!
To all three of you... Do you think Canada will bring home Lord Stanley's cup this year, and which team do you think has the best shot?
Thanks, George Raymond S!
just wanted to say thank you. During the last 6 months your shows have helped me get through the loss of my wife. They have been a bonding moment between me and my daughter and I am so grateful for it
Thanks, Mike G!
Hey fellas, have any of you guys ever done any hunting? I'd love to elk or moose hunt sometime and you guys have a lot of them up there | imagine. That would be a sick experience
