The shower separated from the toilet is actually amazing for active commuters, be it runners, long distance walkers, cyclists etc. Most super nice tech companies have some amenities for these people. You get healthier employees, and (from experience) people that are more happy in the morning since they just did their exercise which is a great way to start a day. I know it might be weird having a shower in an office or something but trust me it's amazing when you want to try commuting in a different way (even if it's only once a month!).
Could definitely been related to manufacturing safety if they worked with any sort of chemicals; given those giant fume hoods I'd honestly lean towards that reason.
The process of updating of the new space would make an incredible video series. From dealing with the attorneys provided things can be rectified, to updating the lights and cabling.
This is why you need to scrutinize very closely any property you are considering renting, leasing or buying. Get it ALL in writing. And get video before you move in and just before you move out.
To be honest.... I'd watch it. I liked LTT coming around and doing a video with Stefan to clarify the past. It'd be nice to see some sort of vindication for it all and for it to have some kind of positive.
I remember his "Thinking of retiring." video and became a meme with that and now there he is continuing his passion and becoming successful with it. Goodluck with this new journey man!
All this work ultimately makes it so that he can retire without worrying about the future of the organisation. I think he's definitely still got it on his mind. But they've made their workflow so well-optimised now that we don't even notice that he's spending less time at the office.
i still remember watching Linus and team crammed in that wee house with the sketchy wee bathroom server room. seeing and watching how far the channel has come and grown since then is amazing.
I remember on WAN show how him and Luke would be talking about their schedule and Linus would complain he had to go into work at NCIX. Those were the days! I'm so proud of everyone at LMG.
I miss the simple tech look and fun they had now it feels bland. The titles, the wealth flaunting and click bait, which is making watching his stuff impossible, I don’t know what the videos even about. Sorry just my thoughts, which they would go back to basics instead of a dream server? I’m sure teens and view will love it but not for me.
@@HankHillspimphand I get that. There's many videos they do that do not interest me. There are others that bore me as they essentially are the same video's but with a minor few different components, or they are click baity af.... But there are loads of content that does keep me coming back to watch and follow along.
@@HankHillspimphand I feel if they go back to basics it would be basically copying what others have done which makes their content basically the same as any old tech review channel. In that case I might as well be watching some other tech reviewer. I love that they are doing stuff that no one else is doing because they have the means to do so and that makes it exciting.
James' first thought when lacking outside seating areas being to donate a bench to the park is exactly the type of people I imagined was working high up in LTT. Even though the park is getting flattened, the thought is amazing, and what so many local communities want and need
It's sad it's getting flattened and presumably built on. I know nothing about citizen action in Canada. Can stuff like that get stopped? Here in the UK if a council wanted to remove a park and build on it there would be people tunnelling underneath it and having to be evicted by the High Court.
@@satyris410 I wanted to say that they could probably have people step up and say something and if enough people did they might change... but I realized that all I really know of this subject is from the show Parks and Rec which shouldn't be used as any kind of basis for real world stuff lol. And even if it could it was also in the US and, yeah, Canada might be different.
9:25 Only the wife can crush your dreams with reality like that. Really love when Yvonne and Linus do videos together and he's like an over excited puppy with huge dreams and she reminds him that reality is a thing.
@@TheEplestugas Oh, of course. I was mostly just joking about that one scene. The editors obviously agreed with the sad face Linus and the black and white effect. She is definitely a major factor in how LMG got this far and I'll never get tired of hearing Linus singing her praises. It's so great to see a working spouse pair that often disagree, but still work together so well.
Personally I'd love to see the entire process of renovating this building! Could probably get a lot of content out of it as well to help offset some of the costs
I'm actually shook how much LMG has expanded. Really proud to see a tech UA-cam giant at home in Canada. Super excited for your technical content and becoming a household tech name. Imagine how it's gonna feel when the tech companies are going to look for LTT labs approval on their products. Big things coming.
Tip from an Electrician: Replace ALL your lighting with LED fittings , including the warehouse (hi-bay type). Sure it may cost a bit more than fluorescent fittings, but you save power and they'll last longer in intensity and lifespan. Also, when your replacing office light fittings, change the ceiling tiles (linings) as you'll benefit with reflection of the light and will feel more spacious and a clean environment. Removing walls, watch for services running within them, it'll be additional costs to alter the electrical power circuits. In dark shelf storage areas, run LED strip lighting to illuminate the back areas of the shelf. You may want to use light colour natural wood in places with some plants around to reflect a Zen happy workplace). Well done on the location, and go ballistic in chopping and changing this property to suit your needs. A tour would be great when its all finished guys.
Definately the way to go. One caviat would be the color matching issue with general LEDs. Any room that require some sort of color matching work would require some thought on what light to get (LEDs are also available but sometimes hard to find if you are specific about which standard to abide to etc)
@@FrankieTheOne Agreed, since they do literally all of these already...you can tell from their sets. Still, I guess it doesn't hurt to remind them, but this is still a classic UA-cam comment XD
Renovating this whole building together with Brian The Electrician will bring enough sponsorships money to not only cover the expenses, but to buy a lab 3 right away
Yeah i saw this with more UA-camrs, with just almost their whole house renovation partly for free, partly with nice discounts because of the sponsoring. When you have a lot of viewers / subscribers, this is a very powerful tool.
Plot twist twist... Linus' new office is the sad little room because spies from Gamers Nexus will be able to see everything he is doing through the windows of the corner office. Also, Linus works naked after everyone leaves.
This is amazing, we're witnessing the birth of an independent accountability auditor. This is something that governments usually implement to protect the consumer, yet LMG has found a way to profit from it, which in turn acts as a feedback loop to ensure that integrity is maintained. This will only make consumer electronics better, as we've seen from other videos how fast influencers like these garner a response from the manufacturers (e.g. Gamers Nexus). Proud to see you go from an amateur reviewer to a juggernaut today. Well done!
government regulation is usually the bare minimum. For high end stuffs it just won't do much. I think LMG being the independent auditor here would help mainly on pushing new standards that maybe one day would be endorssed by both the manufacturer and the consumer.
@@mycosys The problem is business model. Mainstream outlets are almost entirely advertiser funded, and when all of your revenue comes from advertisers, you kinda can't do big exposes against them or you're just screwed. Subscriber funded journalism is generally better, but since the subscriber base for traditional media tends to lean older and wealthier, they end up almost as out of touch as the advertiser funded outlets. New media, on the other hand, tends to be funded through donations and merch, and the primary purchasers for those are your average consumers, and as a result, they end up the most in touch and honest from the perspective of most people. If you want to know why something is shit, just follow the money.
I used to work at a civil engineering firm, and we had a stand-alone shower. Employees would occasionally use it if they had a site visit and came back all sweaty / dirty and wanted to freshen up. Especially if they had an important client meeting later.
Sounds like you guys have your work cut out! I thought that when you moved out of the house and look how far that's come, I'm sure it will be full in no time
Once again, I LOVE Yvonne in these sorts of videos because it's important to show just how CRUCIAL she is to the success of the entire operation. But yeah, there's a LOT of issues that hopefully, your team and lawyer(s) would be able to negotiate a mutually agreed upon solution. I look forward to your future videos, showing us your success!
@@muhdsyahmimj2207 Remember 2022? Yes, it was a time when nobody could say anything about anybody for any reason. Keep your thoughts to yourself bruhh.
ive been watching since you guys where in that house. Right before the time you did whole room water cooling. its surreal to see you advance so much. i wish the team the best.
It's hard to imagine Linus was thinking of retiring only 2 years ago and now he's shining with excitement over all his plans for contribution and empire
I feel like he's definitely future proofing for his retirement. I think its even present in the abbreviation LTT though that had existed for a long while. If he can make it about more than just himself then he can more easily separate
@@ethanpworth It's pretty clear with he's offloading his screentime onto other people. Riley with TechLinked, Jonathan with MA (where Linus never or only sporadically appeared), James with overall planning and he has stated multiple times that Jake's going to take over after he retires. The only Question is: Is Jake going to fire Colton as first order of Business?
I like the fact that we started seeing Yvonne more. I really enjoy the combination of Linus and Yvonne. I hope we get more from her and many videos for all the great (and maybe crazy) things you are going to do for creating the lab space! Best wishes for the lab!!
@@Greenmonkey552 Exactly, instantly annoying. I've met many women like her who are attached to successful men and they compensate by trying to throw their weight around.
@@stylianou seems like she’s doing a pretty good job managing things, she knew all the quotes and knew more about what’s not up to building code and stuff lol
I remember watching you when I was just a teenager. It's been almost 8 years now and I feel so happy and proud for you and team Linus! It's so awesome to see you starting a whole lab just to do more test on products and educate us consumers about them. Love from Malaysia. :D
Omg I was just thinking the same. I was watching around that time to as a teen in highschool man it's so crazy to see how much Linus has advanced himself and as a company. I remember watching his NCIX videos. Holy shit man time flies and shit changes so much.
@@WvnDesign and pay up money to the local bus service to make their office lot an bus hub, if their area has any bus service. Idk how Cananda, especially British Columbia, works.
I don't know about you, but putting my car vertical sounds a little too cupholder-unfriendly to me. I think cars work great when they're horizontal, why do people always feel that they have to change up tried and true concepts just for the sake of innovating. 😤 #IfItAintBrokeDontFixIt
This whole building is basically a content machine. The amount of videos you can make just from renovating the space to coming up with cool smart home integrations around the home should be awesome
This building reminds me of the data center I worked at; it was an old semiconductor factory that checked all the boxes on paper. Building was a money pit when it came time to become compliant with its new purpose, but since it was a data center it made it back faster than it burnt through it.
and with what they plan on doing with this I doubt they won't do the same here. definitely will be a win lose situation thanks to the previous owners XD
watching linus starting off as a single person. to buying a house dedicated for content creation and there editing team to buying these 2 big warehouse/office spaces has been an amazing adventer. well done Linus and Yvonne. well done! very proud off all of you at LTT
I love how you make us feel like a part of the journey. Each time you've expanded, you've taken us along for the ride, and personally, I've really enjoyed it. You're adding on to your already considerable legacy, and I can't wait to see what you do next. Best of luck you guys.
These videos where y’all just walk around and spitball ideas have got to be my favorite videos you make. I love watching the gears turn as you guys plan out and map things out
8:10 this is very true for almost all fields of work. A lot of employers like to think of themselves as creating a "collaborative" workspace or "inspiring creativity" with open floor work plans, yet all of the executives and 'higher ups' get their own private offices. The fact of the matter is that employees vastly prefer their own private offices and would rather not work in an open environment. Most employers do know this and simply use those excuses to justify the cost-cutting measures of an open-floor plan. This is also one of the many reasons that open offices like WeWork are failing.
Its all great. Middle of a pandemic, my work decides, open plan. Even though the evidence on open plan is awful for productivity, health, and wellness. Which was shared with them. Including systematic reviews of local evidence on the topic. Now we have open plan, they get half of us to work from home because they suddenly discover that we are in a pandemic. Genius.
Ironically, I have a single private office at my WeWork and it's been better than any past open office job. Working in the open areas, though? Who would do that instead of working at home??
Great office... sure looks like it got mugged by the previous owners on the way out though. Can't wait to see what comes out of this lab/office/precise arrangement of toilets!
yeah when companies move out they use contractors who are told to "remove everything" and they do "remove everything" including railings if they cant get the equipment out without removing them.
I am an Architect that focuses in Industrial so this this video felt like what i deal with all the time. I feel like i was doing the walk through before we started drawings for the building TI. A LOT of what you show missing or removed you should definitely go back to the LL and make them fix. Lots of code issues in the video. Hope you can get them to fix it but definitely in no world is that acceptable to turn over a building in the condition. I suppose it depends on what you agreed on for turn over but i would think you wanted it to be code compliant. Also, Large racking like that requires its own permit with calcs and attachment details. Large warehouse racking is no joke and cant just be put wherever and not bolted down. Best if luck. Wish i could jump in and help yall out lol
@@EonofAeon sounded like they were giving up getting the previous tenants to sort anything - not giving up on the building. Though by the top comment on this video seems the previous tenant might be addressing some of the issues.
Unless it's written in the contract. If there are any code violations it is the current owners responsibility to resolve them unless the previous owner caused the major changes AFTER the purchase, albeit see municipality/territorial laws. The removal of the air compressor and other devices on the second floor... the previous owner removed the mechanical properly. There is absolutely nothing wrong or "illegal" with having to use an angle grinder, plasma, oxy/ace torch to remove steel tubing used as a railing. Machinery is typically used to install and remove mechanical equipment.
It's incredible. It's not Just Linus anymore. It's not even just Linus and Luke anymore, there is an entire company and cast of people who can enter the camera shot at any time and it's like they're family. As if they've been there from the start. Whoever is doing the hiring process deserves something special for doing such an amazing job.
@@bknighty28 Good point, they've hired amazing people like Anthony whom the community love. It must be hard with a few kids, but seeing his wife so involved in this, it's no wonder it's working so well.
Congratulations Linus, Yvonne and the whole team! I've been watching since you guys moved out of the house and into the office. It's just crazy to see how much you've grown and it's super exciting to see you expanding and giving opportunities to more and more people in the industry. Best of luck getting it all set up!
we had a fishbowl too. couldnt handle everyone staring in like we were in a damn zoo. fking anxiety incarnate people are so rude and even the shadows going by is incredibly distracting
Was in an office once where the bosses had such an office and actually made the windows into Aquariums. You could always see their heads between the fishes and had an idea of what’s going on. But Linus has a lot more privacy concerns I think.
Amazing how much effort you guys are putting into this! One question, with the presumption that the original building is going to be basically just a studio/production house now, are you guys concerned at all about having different teams isolated from each other compared to the current 'just walk upstairs' community feeling you have now?
It sounds like to me the end plan is to move everyone into that building, especially since they are already planning on buying the building next door too
Yeah, that was a problem at my previous job. It helped that there was a free, catered lunch in the other building though, so that's when we saw the other half of the people.
As someone who helps audit places, that building is concerning. I do however, believe in the great potential it has. Start up cost will definately be high.
I'm a psychic (no really, governments use me) and I don't like the vibe of that place. Build it up slowly, don't over spend, 'Slowly, slowly catchy money' as they say. You don't need to acoustically treat everything right away, creates zones and grow - there is plenty fo potential there!
Is “Audits Places” an industry term….because I’ve never heard of it. Do you inspect the buildings or Audit them because they are two different things….just asking because I’m not in the industry and still seems like you’re using incorrect terminology…
Watching this video, after almost 10 years of actively following this and the other channels, I was moved. This is a great endeavor and it will be amazing for the community. Something I have always appreciated about you is your effort to grow and improve and starting this chapter is just that. Thank you and best wishes! Can't wait to see this building full of people and what they'll come up with
I've been following you since the NCIX days Linus, this is really impressive! I have only the best of hopes for this channel (and for your business and the business family that you made!)
I've been LTT for so long now that I've seen them evolve from a tech info channel into one of the biggest tech reviewing companies in the world. I remember watching the video on their first big office with warehouse and thinking damn, this is more than just a UA-cam channel. Now they're buying one of Adidas' old offices. Really excited to see what the future will bring!
I remember those first videos: the nerd in his room making a video about building computers. Now he's built himself a company with 80+ people that needs corporate-level infrastructure to make it work. And it looks like they're having a lot of fun doing it.
9:30 Yvonne's reaction to Linus being happy is priceless: "as long as you're happy", despite it being kind of a downgrade. They are very cute together XD
I like how Linus cares about Luke having two offices, like he's watching out for his old buddy to make sure he's comfy lol. "Like okay Yvonne you can decide where my office goes, by my BFF Luke also needs an office near me!"
I have never been so jealous of anything in my life; with that being said, I am also happy seeing LTT adding such a large asset to the company. I am extremely excited and happy for you and your team!
I work as an IT Manager and I've been in 6 office moves, bigger and bigger, and it's cool, but the headaches and the unforeseen are huge, many people don't take that into account and it can cost a lot of money, obviously I don't work In a company like LTT and not with so many staff, the bad thing about these moves is that I have to solve all the connectivity and electricity problems in record time and I'm just a one army man. I see the potential to move and expand and with the team they have they will make it for sure

Yeah the WAN show about how much it will cost to remodel/redo things seems like its going to be waaaaay more than $150k. Sounds like the paper towel dispensers will be the least of their worries
I love this type of video, just walking around, showing things and talking about future plans. Can't wait for more, and the extra BTS is making Floatplane look real tempting
Good job team. I've been binge watching your shows and I'm so happy to see how much you've progressed. It's amazing to watch so close how things have turned out for you!
Thats weird that I feel for Linus like for my old friend and he doesn’t know about my exsitence. Anyway Im happy to see you and the whole team grow. Been watching since like 2010.
@@piyh3962 they are really hard to deal with. I am not a major celebrity at all but I've had people come talk to me after a session at conferences and it's a bit awkward at first, as they have excitement for their knowledge of you, but you have actually never met them before. I normally follow up with " I'll be at the bar in an hour, wanna catch up then? "
Lighting-wise you can get LED bulbs to fit commercial fluorescent fixtures. No electrician required. They just did that in our office, looks pretty good. The sad room could be a conference room?
I'd have to say it's time for a retrofit. It's all 2x2 parabolics and 6" cans throughout that office, probably installed 20 years ago and sooner or later those ballasts will start failing one at a time. New 2x2 / 2x4 flat panel LEDs and 6" slim pots are the way to go. Wider beam angle, improved CRI, and you'll never change a bulb or ballast again. But most importantly a lighting facelift will make it look less like every turn-of-the-century office cubical hellhole.
I hope it goes really really really well for you dudes. Been watching you for years and years and my love for you has only grown, if I lived closer I'd definitely try to get a job with you but instead I just have to appreciate you from afar.
Replacing ceiling tiles does nothing about the leaks in the roof! Get an estimate on sealing the roof first! Otherwise, you LTT people deserve bigger and better, so more power to you!!
Literally Linus and Yvonne's relationship. LOL. Good team. Linus: I'm SO excited, I spent ALL my money, this is gonna be GREAT. Locked door. Yvonne: I've got the keys.
Would love to watch more videos on the move in process, as well as how the building is going to be set up, as far as department placement, utilities routing, and such. I love seeing the planning and thought process as to why the facility is the way that it is. I worked at a couple big tech companies, and factory layout and workplace efficiency is my favorite thing
Damn it's crazy to see how LTT has changed in the 6 years since I've built my first PC. Still honest, consumer focused and ambitious. Also love to see Yvonne on camera, would be interesting to see more of her and what she does.
i think that shower room should be made into a change type room to allow your employees to be able to bike or run or some other form of transport that involves physicals movement to change and possibly hop in for a quick rinse when they get in
That shredded denim panel stuff reminds me of the stuff we used to use at my parents old bedding stores. They were in a sheet form and were really cohesive, but they prevented damage and scratches extremely well. Man, nostalgic
Yvonne rocks and definitely deserves more credit. Clearly Linus has an awesome partner to rely on no matter what. On top of that they also have some really amazing key staff keep the ship sorted at all times. Congrats and good job!
Yeah, like Pewdiepie, really kind of a nice guy, but a total chump! What has he gone on to develop and do with his GOBS of money! Moved to Japan with his 2 dogs and gf/wife! 🤡 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Congratulations this was probably a dream of yours and it makes me happy to see you succeed and to show all of us the latest and greatest of the tech world I hope you can do more things like this soon. 👍

Yup. His house upgrade videos have been some of my favorites.
They have to recoup the cost somehow...
Agreed, and for every video there has to be a sponsor

Yeah this is a sea of content for LTT
Ohhhg yes
I really really want Linus to start a Business and/or Logistics Channel!
This is why you need to scrutinize very closely any property you are considering renting, leasing or buying. Get it ALL in writing. And get video before you move in and just before you move out.
It's basically the OffTheRanch Abandoned Mansion series all over again! Hells yeah.
I can't wait to start my job in the Anti Static Bracelet / Table testing area. Also the Thermal Paste tasting area.
If you draw it in an 'Ex' on your tongue, it tastes like snozberries!
To be honest.... I'd watch it. I liked LTT coming around and doing a video with Stefan to clarify the past. It'd be nice to see some sort of vindication for it all and for it to have some kind of positive.

@@HankHillspimphand I get that. There's many videos they do that do not interest me. There are others that bore me as they essentially are the same video's but with a minor few different components, or they are click baity af.... But there are loads of content that does keep me coming back to watch and follow along.
feels like yesterday
@@HankHillspimphand I feel if they go back to basics it would be basically copying what others have done which makes their content basically the same as any old tech review channel. In that case I might as well be watching some other tech reviewer. I love that they are doing stuff that no one else is doing because they have the means to do so and that makes it exciting.
James' first thought when lacking outside seating areas being to donate a bench to the park is exactly the type of people I imagined was working high up in LTT. Even though the park is getting flattened, the thought is amazing, and what so many local communities want and need
"... I'll setup my lawn chair"
It's also a way to save on demolition and freight i guess.
It's sad it's getting flattened and presumably built on. I know nothing about citizen action in Canada. Can stuff like that get stopped? Here in the UK if a council wanted to remove a park and build on it there would be people tunnelling underneath it and having to be evicted by the High Court.
@@satyris410 I wanted to say that they could probably have people step up and say something and if enough people did they might change... but I realized that all I really know of this subject is from the show Parks and Rec which shouldn't be used as any kind of basis for real world stuff lol. And even if it could it was also in the US and, yeah, Canada might be different.
@@satyris410 don’t be a nimby. Let the. Build. It’s an industrial area.
9:25 Only the wife can crush your dreams with reality like that. Really love when Yvonne and Linus do videos together and he's like an over excited puppy with huge dreams and she reminds him that reality is a thing.
I agree, hope they make more video like this.
Funny to see Yvonne be rational and point out problems in Linus plans 😂
But we all know, Yvonne is the reason Linus even dares to dream this big!
@@TheEplestugas Oh, of course. I was mostly just joking about that one scene. The editors obviously agreed with the sad face Linus and the black and white effect.
She is definitely a major factor in how LMG got this far and I'll never get tired of hearing Linus singing her praises. It's so great to see a working spouse pair that often disagree, but still work together so well.
its a good thing, smelling and avoiding mistakes beforehand is good
less regret 😂
Personally I'd love to see the entire process of renovating this building! Could probably get a lot of content out of it as well to help offset some of the costs
I would be interested in this too
with segues to sponsors 😅
Similar to the Louis Rossmann real estate series!
incase they look at the comments, i think a ltt version of fixer upper would be cool lol
I would watch the entire playlist.
I'm actually shook how much LMG has expanded. Really proud to see a tech UA-cam giant at home in Canada. Super excited for your technical content and becoming a household tech name. Imagine how it's gonna feel when the tech companies are going to look for LTT labs approval on their products. Big things coming.
yeah it really doesnt feel like that long ago LTT was just a few people running a channel out of a rented house.
@@Altirix_ Well, to be fair that also was the case not so long ago. They moved mid-end2015, I believe?
they still gonna be inthe main building or are they moving everything?
So if this is LTT labs 2, where is lab1?
At this rate it may not be long until they're back to that. Expansion isn't always the wisest choice when your business is doing well
Tip from an Electrician: Replace ALL your lighting with LED fittings , including the warehouse (hi-bay type). Sure it may cost a bit more than fluorescent fittings, but you save power and they'll last longer in intensity and lifespan. Also, when your replacing office light fittings, change the ceiling tiles (linings) as you'll benefit with reflection of the light and will feel more spacious and a clean environment. Removing walls, watch for services running within them, it'll be additional costs to alter the electrical power circuits. In dark shelf storage areas, run LED strip lighting to illuminate the back areas of the shelf. You may want to use light colour natural wood in places with some plants around to reflect a Zen happy workplace). Well done on the location, and go ballistic in chopping and changing this property to suit your needs. A tour would be great when its all finished guys.
This! Also as an Electrical Engineer
For sure they already know that dude
@@FrankieTheOne Better to tell them than not
Definately the way to go. One caviat would be the color matching issue with general LEDs. Any room that require some sort of color matching work would require some thought on what light to get (LEDs are also available but sometimes hard to find if you are specific about which standard to abide to etc)
@@FrankieTheOne Agreed, since they do literally all of these already...you can tell from their sets. Still, I guess it doesn't hurt to remind them, but this is still a classic UA-cam comment XD
Renovating this whole building together with Brian The Electrician will bring enough sponsorships money to not only cover the expenses, but to buy a lab 3 right away
then they need to launch a separate channel - Warehouse Shenanigans
I need Brian the electrician again lol
Yeah i saw this with more UA-camrs, with just almost their whole house renovation partly for free, partly with nice discounts because of the sponsoring. When you have a lot of viewers / subscribers, this is a very powerful tool.
Plot Twist.. It was just Linus Peeing on the floor to make sure the cleaning detail was up to par. Gotta love hands on Ceos!
Isn't that an example of a hands off CEO?
Plot twist twist... Linus' new office is the sad little room because spies from Gamers Nexus will be able to see everything he is doing through the windows of the corner office. Also, Linus works naked after everyone leaves.
@@Mr.Morden How else is he going to shoot those onlyfans videos?

@@Mr.Morden Linus already works naked during work hours.
If you want to install motion sensors for the lights, I hear that Linus might know someone who has about 100 of them he might want to switch out.

That place looks awesome! Can’t wait to see it all come together.
Yvonne arriving at the place with the keys to get in is just like the perfect "full circle" for this whole saga from its humble beginnings.
This is amazing, we're witnessing the birth of an independent accountability auditor. This is something that governments usually implement to protect the consumer, yet LMG has found a way to profit from it, which in turn acts as a feedback loop to ensure that integrity is maintained. This will only make consumer electronics better, as we've seen from other videos how fast influencers like these garner a response from the manufacturers (e.g. Gamers Nexus). Proud to see you go from an amateur reviewer to a juggernaut today. Well done!
no dude - thats aka journalism. Thats what journalists are for, just there are precious few left
@@mycosys Exactly. They're essentially creating their own version of NYT's Wire Cutter.
13:49
government regulation is usually the bare minimum. For high end stuffs it just won't do much. I think LMG being the independent auditor here would help mainly on pushing new standards that maybe one day would be endorssed by both the manufacturer and the consumer.
@@mycosys The problem is business model.
Mainstream outlets are almost entirely advertiser funded, and when all of your revenue comes from advertisers, you kinda can't do big exposes against them or you're just screwed.
Subscriber funded journalism is generally better, but since the subscriber base for traditional media tends to lean older and wealthier, they end up almost as out of touch as the advertiser funded outlets.
New media, on the other hand, tends to be funded through donations and merch, and the primary purchasers for those are your average consumers, and as a result, they end up the most in touch and honest from the perspective of most people.
If you want to know why something is shit, just follow the money.
I used to work at a civil engineering firm, and we had a stand-alone shower. Employees would occasionally use it if they had a site visit and came back all sweaty / dirty and wanted to freshen up. Especially if they had an important client meeting later.
Was gonna say, having a shower at the office sounds kind of nice.
Or for anyone who bikes to work.

With Yvonne in charge of planning, this will all work out perfectly.
It's hard to imagine Linus was thinking of retiring only 2 years ago and now he's shining with excitement over all his plans for contribution and empire
I feel like he's definitely future proofing for his retirement. I think its even present in the abbreviation LTT though that had existed for a long while. If he can make it about more than just himself then he can more easily separate
@@ethanpworth It's pretty clear with he's offloading his screentime onto other people. Riley with TechLinked, Jonathan with MA (where Linus never or only sporadically appeared), James with overall planning and he has stated multiple times that Jake's going to take over after he retires.
The only Question is: Is Jake going to fire Colton as first order of Business?

You could invest in a vertical parking system.
Aside from being a potential solution to your problem, it could be fun content too 👍
I saw them used a lot in Japan near offices, even with triple rows
And let it underground parking lot, if possible. They are just ugly above ground.

I don't know about you, but putting my car vertical sounds a little too cupholder-unfriendly to me. I think cars work great when they're horizontal, why do people always feel that they have to change up tried and true concepts just for the sake of innovating. 😤
#IfItAintBrokeDontFixIt
This whole building is basically a content machine. The amount of videos you can make just from renovating the space to coming up with cool smart home integrations around the home should be awesome

Behind every great man, is an even great woman. :-)
CFO for a reason
This building reminds me of the data center I worked at; it was an old semiconductor factory that checked all the boxes on paper. Building was a money pit when it came time to become compliant with its new purpose, but since it was a data center it made it back faster than it burnt through it.
and with what they plan on doing with this I doubt they won't do the same here. definitely will be a win lose situation thanks to the previous owners XD
@agapp11able Doesn't matter, their videos are REALLY starting to get repetitive and bland, they NEED this, even if it's not cost efficient.

@agapp11able and maybe they will earn more money to review a testing sample before making a video about it
watching linus starting off as a single person. to buying a house dedicated for content creation and there editing team to buying these 2 big warehouse/office spaces has been an amazing adventer. well done Linus and Yvonne. well done! very proud off all of you at LTT

8:10 this is very true for almost all fields of work. A lot of employers like to think of themselves as creating a "collaborative" workspace or "inspiring creativity" with open floor work plans, yet all of the executives and 'higher ups' get their own private offices. The fact of the matter is that employees vastly prefer their own private offices and would rather not work in an open environment. Most employers do know this and simply use those excuses to justify the cost-cutting measures of an open-floor plan. This is also one of the many reasons that open offices like WeWork are failing.
13:49
Its all great.
Middle of a pandemic, my work decides, open plan. Even though the evidence on open plan is awful for productivity, health, and wellness. Which was shared with them. Including systematic reviews of local evidence on the topic. Now we have open plan, they get half of us to work from home because they suddenly discover that we are in a pandemic.
Genius.
Ironically, I have a single private office at my WeWork and it's been better than any past open office job.
Working in the open areas, though? Who would do that instead of working at home??
Yes i also saw that guy's viral video essay
Like it matters, everyone is or wants to work at home

I remember how pumped y'all were when you moved from the house to the current building. Channel has come a long way.
I am an Architect that focuses in Industrial so this this video felt like what i deal with all the time. I feel like i was doing the walk through before we started drawings for the building TI. A LOT of what you show missing or removed you should definitely go back to the LL and make them fix. Lots of code issues in the video. Hope you can get them to fix it but definitely in no world is that acceptable to turn over a building in the condition. I suppose it depends on what you agreed on for turn over but i would think you wanted it to be code compliant. Also, Large racking like that requires its own permit with calcs and attachment details. Large warehouse racking is no joke and cant just be put wherever and not bolted down. Best if luck. Wish i could jump in and help yall out lol
He talked about it in WAN show and pretty much gave up. Too much work , very low bargain power, real estate market prices and more reasons...
@@davidhnsk90 Wait do you mean the building in this video they gave up on? Or other options? Or pursuing LL/previous tenants?
@@davidhnsk90 I thought the WAN show was before this video
@@EonofAeon sounded like they were giving up getting the previous tenants to sort anything - not giving up on the building. Though by the top comment on this video seems the previous tenant might be addressing some of the issues.
Unless it's written in the contract. If there are any code violations it is the current owners responsibility to resolve them unless the previous owner caused the major changes AFTER the purchase, albeit see municipality/territorial laws. The removal of the air compressor and other devices on the second floor... the previous owner removed the mechanical properly. There is absolutely nothing wrong or "illegal" with having to use an angle grinder, plasma, oxy/ace torch to remove steel tubing used as a railing. Machinery is typically used to install and remove mechanical equipment.

Was in an office once where the bosses had such an office and actually made the windows into Aquariums. You could always see their heads between the fishes and had an idea of what’s going on. But Linus has a lot more privacy concerns I think.

Amazing how much effort you guys are putting into this! One question, with the presumption that the original building is going to be basically just a studio/production house now, are you guys concerned at all about having different teams isolated from each other compared to the current 'just walk upstairs' community feeling you have now?

I'm a psychic (no really, governments use me) and I don't like the vibe of that place. Build it up slowly, don't over spend, 'Slowly, slowly catchy money' as they say. You don't need to acoustically treat everything right away, creates zones and grow - there is plenty fo potential there!
Is “Audits Places” an industry term….because I’ve never heard of it.
Do you inspect the buildings or Audit them because they are two different things….just asking because I’m not in the industry and still seems like you’re using incorrect terminology…

I love this type of video, just walking around, showing things and talking about future plans. Can't wait for more, and the extra BTS is making Floatplane look real tempting
Good job team. I've been binge watching your shows and I'm so happy to see how much you've progressed. It's amazing to watch so close how things have turned out for you!
Thats weird that I feel for Linus like for my old friend and he doesn’t know about my exsitence. Anyway Im happy to see you and the whole team grow. Been watching since like 2010.
Parasocial relationships
@@piyh3962 they are really hard to deal with. I am not a major celebrity at all but I've had people come talk to me after a session at conferences and it's a bit awkward at first, as they have excitement for their knowledge of you, but you have actually never met them before.
I normally follow up with "
I'll be at the bar in an hour, wanna catch up then? "
Always happy to see more of Yvonne, she's awesome and should be included more!
Linus has been making HUGE moves and I am really impressed and SO excited to see the future videos using the results of the lab!
Amazing to see how far you guys have come and still growing. Love it!
Linus is basically that guy that kept playing GTAOnline since launch without glitched money.
Lmao yes!
Lighting-wise you can get LED bulbs to fit commercial fluorescent fixtures. No electrician required. They just did that in our office, looks pretty good.
The sad room could be a conference room?
I'd have to say it's time for a retrofit. It's all 2x2 parabolics and 6" cans throughout that office, probably installed 20 years ago and sooner or later those ballasts will start failing one at a time. New 2x2 / 2x4 flat panel LEDs and 6" slim pots are the way to go. Wider beam angle, improved CRI, and you'll never change a bulb or ballast again. But most importantly a lighting facelift will make it look less like every turn-of-the-century office cubical hellhole.
"Can this be the server room? There's watercooling!" probably the best ltt quote ever.
I hope it goes really really really well for you dudes. Been watching you for years and years and my love for you has only grown, if I lived closer I'd definitely try to get a job with you but instead I just have to appreciate you from afar.
Replacing ceiling tiles does nothing about the leaks in the roof! Get an estimate on sealing the roof first! Otherwise, you LTT people deserve bigger and better, so more power to you!!
"Please leave all prehistoric ideas at the door!" Love it lol
Best of luck with the labs. Hope it becomes a huge success for you guys.

Literally Linus and Yvonne's relationship. LOL. Good team.
Linus: I'm SO excited, I spent ALL my money, this is gonna be GREAT.
Locked door.
Yvonne: I've got the keys.
Would love to watch more videos on the move in process, as well as how the building is going to be set up, as far as department placement, utilities routing, and such. I love seeing the planning and thought process as to why the facility is the way that it is. I worked at a couple big tech companies, and factory layout and workplace efficiency is my favorite thing
Damn it's crazy to see how LTT has changed in the 6 years since I've built my first PC. Still honest, consumer focused and ambitious. Also love to see Yvonne on camera, would be interesting to see more of her and what she does.
i think that shower room should be made into a change type room to allow your employees to be able to bike or run or some other form of transport that involves physicals movement to change and possibly hop in for a quick rinse when they get in
Incredible!!! I've been following this channel for sow long and is amazing to see it how far it's going!!
Congratulations!
That shredded denim panel stuff reminds me of the stuff we used to use at my parents old bedding stores.
They were in a sheet form and were really cohesive, but they prevented damage and scratches extremely well.
Man, nostalgic
Yvonne rocks and definitely deserves more credit. Clearly Linus has an awesome partner to rely on no matter what. On top of that they also have some really amazing key staff keep the ship sorted at all times. Congrats and good job!
Way to go LTT gang. Seriously, instead of hoarding money like a chump, you go for your dreams! Keep up the good work! :)
Yeah, like Pewdiepie, really kind of a nice guy, but a total chump!
What has he gone on to develop and do with his GOBS of money!
Moved to Japan with his 2 dogs and gf/wife!
🤡
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Nice space with plenty of blank canvas, just need new lights, wifi, Cat6, server room and lose the Marcelo posters…..maybe indoor parking?
Congratulations this was probably a dream of yours and it makes me happy to see you succeed and to show all of us the latest and greatest of the tech world I hope you can do more things like this soon. 👍
I started watching Linus during my undergrad when there was only one channel. Now I am doing my masters in CS in US and Linus has grown so much till now.
