[3:12:56] Outro.
Maybe do a comparison of drivers and GPU. Like since release of the 40 series Nvidia and its drivers in 2 years, what performance increase was there. And then the same form Intel and AMD. Try different drivers and how much the performance increased with same settings in same game.
They need to reduce the price in EU. 330 euro is not 249 USD is it?
All I want to know is when and if Intel is bringing out more battlemage cards? Like the A series….. I own a 4080 and have no plans on upgrading or changing gpu right now, I didn't care at all about new gpu launches (now that I can't sell my only kidney) but this launch made me so excited none the less. I infact have already recommended a few people to get intel gpu instead of getting used gpus. Intel has already got a guy going around recommending people buy intel gpu for their budget builds just by building a great product at an amazing price point that is just plain exciting.

I don't blame him, but I did get a little chuckle at just how fast Linus scrolled to get the thumbnail of Madison off the screen. 2:57:33
Linus casually doxxing his wife 😬
Commenting for my algorithm lol
That promo for the backpack is better than most of what passes for TV commercials these days. And its by far the best way to show people out there who don't know much about LMG just how GOOD the LTT products really are.
It makes me so mad no one has just made Steam, but for TV and movies. Everyone knows that Steam makes billions and I think most people want to "own" their products, rather than renting from streaming services. You could do so much with it too. I hope Valve just cuts into movies and TV and eats the streaming services lunch.
Evga BAttlemage GPU;s anyone? I think they should partner with intel and Sparkle makes the best OEM psu's on the market. No way their GPU's are gonna be trash. Yes she changed the lyrics " wake up in the moring screming fu$k P ditty, he does bad things to women and little kids and that's just shitty."
Would the Steam Deck qualify as a "really good value tech product"?
1:59:00 Getting rid of DVD/Blu Ray etc and all streaming… I feel like listening to that old song/watching this movie that was released 6 months ago… Oh, they dumped it to save their space. ( not enough want it at this time, now it is gone, no one can get it ever again ).
I like to own a "real" copy that I can come back to sometimes, it may be 20 yo or more but that is what is needed now.
Luke's inability to accept that most people like Starfield is so juvenile.
Around 24:00 , you mentioned how the how to build a pc video bombed, which sucks. I literally watched that video 5 + times before, during, and after building my first PC. It was an invaluable resource to me.
If people stopped buying all the crap (microtransaction-laden games, "internet of things" crap that relies on someone else's server to work, overpriced computer hardware, subscription based stuff that absolutely shouldn't be a subscription etc etc) then manufacturers would not make money from it and would stop making it and start selling products that don't suck…
excited for the commuter bag! glad that the price is right around where I thought it would be, depending on my finances day off release i think i'll be picking one up for myself!
Surely if a game as big as Starfield isn't working so well on the Arc GPUs it would be in the best interests of both Intel and Bethesda to do whatever is necessary to get it working.
just in time for tarifffs
I didn't see it until the title was changed to Airb&b.
I would have clicked it with the old title. I didn't click with the new title. Now that I know what it's about, I'm going to go watch it
1:54:25 idk man that AirBnB video kinda sucked. I watched it fully hoping it would get interesting, but was thoroughly disappointed after reading the title and expecting more from the video
I don't click on emails too often, but you hit the nail on the head. You guys don't spam my inbox, and usually I know it's either a sale, or some new product launch.
The only other company that I can think of that respects my inbox like that is Schitt, they probably send 2 or 3 emails a year lol.

Hidden pixels DO NOT work in emails unless your using a client like Outlook with the settings purposefully changed to allow those to communicate. The only way they know is if you click a link within the email. That's all. Those links are simple hashed redirects.
Talking about AI opponents, Manor Lords has a currently locked option, but it's on their roadmap.
