Nick is Linus’ nemesis, I have never seen Linus so triggered by someone to this point, he felt helpless and he looked hopeless. Linus tried several different tactics, pointed everything that was wrong, Nick gave *_ZERO F%$#_* which drove Linus even crazier! Then Linus gave up and went for immature warfare but what really kills Linus is the fact that deep inside he knows that Nick might not even undo the mess he created on purpose.

PS Ik you've probably heard this before but, me and alot of people would perfer the black to stay an option, I love the worn look if a bit of the paint chips off over time every non silver one does! List it clearly (Unlike 99% of them) and even make it cost 2$ more or something in lower volume alot of people will still perfer it. Otherwise alot of people will order a spare like me and hope they last forever or cry when theirs is stolen 2years from now and they can't replace it.

Biggest lie in the hobby, lmao. Endgame is getting to build keyboards for others and being able to charge enough to make it worth your time. I built some unattainable keyboards (like, literally 5 figures) for free before, there's a few around I'd still build for free, but since people who buy those buy them to flex so they send them to the big streamers I stopped.

Best part is watching Linus riffle through all this employee's personal stuff totally without boundaries and with no restraint. And then changing how they literally do everything in their setup and the computer activities.

I think Linus meant like ash residue and discoloration from that. I have my own and the very tip is definitely well blackened by now and scrubbing doesn't make it come off either.
This will be one of the most memorable Extreme Tech Upgrades.
How does Linus find a way to drop something in every one of these videos and it still cracks me up.
Previously I wasn’t a fan of Plouffe’s, but after watching this he’s now in my top ten of favorite ltt personalities.

As someone who buys several collections per year and plays weekly, for most $100+ cards are actually pretty special. Most collections don't have them.
This episode has me cracking up hard! Love the rabbit hole that Nick has gone down with the keyboard mods. Respect.
Okay but at the same time, the fact that LTT is going through all of the screwdriver tests for WEEKS before they ship them out is great.
Not even 4 minutes in and Linus is dropping breakable things. I love this man.
As a budding keyboard enthusiast, MTG player, and vinyl collector I feel personally attacked. And thoroughly entertained. Can't wait for the next one!

I also felt a little offended when Linus said his place was filled with "all kinds of weird stuff" and it's literally just a wall of Unstable basic lands. Like wtf those are some of the best best basics in magic.
Nick’s face when Linus is trying to put the panel down is hilarious
The best part of this room is the poster of a screen shot from thr DVP music video by PUP. Well played.
Love these videos as always, and while our hobbies differ - Plouffe is a nerd after my own heart :)
Just a note on the screw driver. Put some "extended" bits with it or a smaller precision screw driver in the set with it. Its very common for some screws to be deep in a hole and having those small bits into hex end wont go in far enough down the hole to extract screw. I see this allot on Laptops, controllers that kinda thing. Sunk in screws suck.

With how much Nick tinkers with keyboard parts, I wonder what kind of work he could do with arcade stick buttons. There are some that use keyboard switches.
@duckadence
Жыл бұрын
Tbh, for the most part you won't notice the characteristics of the switch. I built my stick with Crown 301/302s? that use keyboard switches. But since the pushbutton itself rubs so much against the housing, you don't get much benefit from lubing or using different switches.

Fastest fingers in the west when this popped up xD
This episode was amazing Linus killed it, so funny😂
All these are so good but this definitely in my top 5. Bully Linus works so well in this one, not too annoying but kept everything entertaining.
RPCS3 also heavily leverages TSX support. I remember unlocking TSX functionality in my 4690k to get better performance.
Ahh yes another keyboard enthusiast with more chassis and switches than one should ever need with copious amounts of desk mats and a stupid number of novelties. I feel a sense of kinship/bad financial decisions.

You never have to justify your keyboard hobbies and expenses to me. I have been hot swapping, modding/experimenting, and buying mechanical keyboard since 2012 and I still do it till this day. Magic the gathering is great unfortunately it has become so expenisve to collect compared to when I was a young.
I love the PUP poster, this is my favourite LTT upgrade so far
