After becoming the CVO Linus has a new life in him. Looks happier, is more present on camera and doing crazy wacky stuff again. This is an amazing change for LTT and I'm here for it!
@@mkoldewijn most likely! But the recent wanshow has been really fun and him doing so much goofy stuff just goes to show how tired he was of being the CEO
To all the above, you don’t just announce a CEO swap without having have been planning and hiring a replacement for some time. Even if this is pre-announcement surely the details had already been worked out with the shareholders
My favorite cleaning tool has and probably always will be the good old fashioned air compressor. Sure people will say "you should never use an air compressor the pressure is too high and you can damage something, plus water condenses inside of them" which are both valid concerns except if you look (usually) right next to the compressor for the accessories. A pressure regulator and a liquid separator are usually really cheap add-ons.
yup, I have this setup and it works great. My only issue is my compressor is 8 gallons and a pain to deal with just for blowing out components. I picked up a $60 blower on Amazon over the weekend that had 4.5 stars and over 1600 reviews. It'll be here tomorrow and hope it works out.
@@Liq38 I use what I assume is a similar electric blower, if not the same one. Thing works great, three strengths and easily rechargeable. More than strong enough for a keyboard or tower.
I have been using an old fashioned air compressor to blow the dust out of my keyboard and my PC for years. I take the PC back inside and immediately power on. NEVER had any issues with this method even though I don't have a liquid separator so yes, there is a tiny amount of moisture being blown onto the components. Meh, it's okay. It's not like I'm pressure washing the PC.
A note about OXO Good Grips - they’re designed for people with motor control and/or dexterity issues, which sometimes means slightly odd design choices (at least to general users) and slightly steeper prices. Their tech stuff might not be so good, but their kitchen kit is top, top tier.
Agreed on the kitchen stuff, every Good Grips product of theirs I've had has been high-quality and ergonomic in ways I wouldn't have personally considered, which is really nice for long cooking sessions. I wouldn't buy that laptop cleaner for myself, but I'd totally buy it for my mom to keep next to her laptop.
I have OXO in the kitchen, best stuff ever. It lasts and it works and is easy to use without strain. Never knew they made laptop stuff until today, but then, I wouldn't let my stuff get that dirty.
Yeah, people goof and laugh on seemingly strangely designed items that solve, what they perceive as, simple tasks. Those people clearly don't know what arthritis is.
Luke's story of repairing PCs of smokers, reminded me of a computer I fixed at a computer shop I worked at. The owner was such a heavy smoker that their breath and the inside of their PC smelled exactly the same
Ever notice that Linus when around Luke won't stop dropping sexual inuendos ? He does that when in videos with his wife too but not as much - when it's just Luke and himself he gets beyond annoying with them . I think Linus really wants to be noticed / pursued by Luke even going so far as to wear the mad outfit in front of him also . I knew a guy who constantly did this around our gay friend and guess what - turns out he was gay also . . shocker. . Either way it isn't a joke to wear women's clothing , Linus . This is beyond offensive to trans people everywhere - period .
It's important to note that even though the brush might be better than "the goop", the brush will dislodge debris and push it INTO the monitor, whereas the goop sticks, lifts and takes the debris with it.
Goop is the way to go. The best way is non-conductive solvent for a thorough cleaning, but the goop is the second best choice since it will not kick up dust, unlike brushes or vacuum.
My favorite way to clean is a strong air pressure hose outside and then vacuuming with a small brush nozzle to get whatever might have settled somewhere. But ofcourse most people dont have access to a generator and air pressure hose
I love the vibe of this kind of video. Just sort of hanging out with Luke and the crew. These are tons of fun. I'd love to see more of this type of content moving forward if Linus has more free time after handing over his duties as CEO.
The two of you doing competitions are so great - brings back some memories of Scrapyard Wars. We need another Scrapyard Wars series - it’s been long enough and with pricing the way it is today, a refresh is probably worthwhile. Keep up the great work!
@@IRMacGuyver To be clear, I wasn’t talking about the production cost of the series (though obviously those are valid points which I hadn’t even thought about!) I was thinking more along the lines of we’re in a couple of new generations of tech - not only a new GPU setup, but new chipsets, DDR5 vs. DDR4, etc. Everything right now is quite a bit more expensive from the builder’s perspective. The goal could maybe be how to build a last-gen system on a budget with used parts to get comparable performance, that type of thing (and yeah I know that’s the premise of each of series, but it’s been a while.) And heck most of the fun is adding in an aesthetic theme for them to work on. Mostly, I just love seeing Linus and Luke competing LOL! Anyhow, thanks for the insight on the production side!
Also would definitely love a series of L+L doing more of this kind of thing, more focused on the tech maintenance than testing every random product, but tbh both together works really well here
10:11 There are some screens that you can use isopropyl alcohol on. Dell directly states in their cleaning manuals that you *should* use only isopropyl with their devices. I've been using isopropyl-soaked wipes on their laptops and monitors with matte screens for years and it does no damage, cleans them up really good.
@@kliao6072 yeah you'd have to be careful on phone screens too, if you have a high percentage of IPA you will absolutely kill the oleophobic coating and have a VERY terrible time.
@@kurosumomo it's not about the plastic. But protective/anti glare coatings on the screens. Some screens also will have an anti microbial layer to prevent germs etc. Also Ethonal is a type of alcohol BTW.
Love how all the products that were used in this video, especially the spray bottle at 21:00, I've seen advertised on TikTok/Instagram at like 2000% markup. Got to love dropshipping...
I love all the other hosts on the channel. I start off with that, because the next thing I have to say is that I love Luke and Linus together even more. It's truly special seeing you two do a goofy video together again. I hope there's more opportunities for that in the future, even if Luke is still too busy to do it regularly.
@@informitas0117 I believe he isn’t officially stepping down until the 1st but the new CEO is running the show right now to see how he works with the team so technically Linus is off the hook right now.
Love the Linus and Luke video always fun to see. Just one thing to note for this video I kinda wish we had a close up of the key board enough to try and see the stubtle difference between the surface and side of the key caps. It was hard to see anything from that far on camera
I was hoping that since he stepped down from CEO his employees would actually start to insult him back but I see it is the same dynamic of 'boss' insults employees 'hilariously' , boss drops sexual innuendos and insults towards employees _constantly_ and '_hilariously_" , and employees simply take it on the chin while biting their tongue . This dork needs to be brought down a few pegs what year is he even stuck in at this point ?
Nice to see Linus back to full force in the type of videos that got him to where he is! Like and him are like buddies that supposed to do well together
You guys got me to finally get serious about cleaning my equipment, especially my monitors. Did some quick research on good cleaning solutions and ordered some stuff I didn't already have. Got the textured microfiber cloth (for when my smooth ones don't work) a small misting bottle, some distilled water, and the blue lint free shop towels (which I wanted so i could have something disposable to clean solder flux off of motherboards since I can't afford an ultrasonic cleaner.) Everything else I needed I already had. I liked the yellow schmoo, but I think I'll probably stick to my compressed air cans since I already have a bunch of those.
Legit bought myself that specific air-duster-cleaner-blower thingy two months ago. A total lifesaver when you need to clean a PC! A brush attachment + max blow speed = goodbye, dust from everywhere! 100% recommend, better than canned air which is like 8$ a pop here in Russia, when I bought the blower for 15$ from AliE
I am a heavy user of cleaning gel, professionally. I use it for cleaning everything. Keyboards, fans, vents, laser printers...you name it. It's not good for ground in dirt but for dust and toner it works great. I clean my home keyboard about once a week and it keeps it very clean. It gets into nooks and grooves you would otherwise need a q-tip for. Worls great in the car as well. I like using if for laser printers because you can stick it in very smal spaces. Our shop also uses those blowers for light dust but for heavy dust nothing beats a combination of a 130psi compressor followed by the gel. Note, the gel will turn sticky and gross when it's used up. If it's like that new send it back. As for laptop cases, good old Windex and shop towels work great. I know people will argue and I don't care, lcd screens...half and half Windex and water, use a paper towel. Once done, water and a mili fiber cloth like you would use on a car, and also use another one to dry the display. It will look like new when you are done. I have been using this method for decades and it always works and has never damaged a single screen. Note, a mili fiber cloth is also referred to as a microfiber cloth but the loops in the cloth are larger. You buy them in a bunch and they come in different colours.
I believe it was already broken, I own very similar one and it have similar damage (broken hole where hinge screw is screwed) I know for what to look at, and I can see this damage much earlier in the video (small gap between top and bottom part of chassis at the corner)
In defence of the Oxo stuff: they're designed to be easy to grip for people with grip problems (arthritis, or nerve damage). So you're paying the ergonomic premium - but also they're usually pretty decent and durable.
The Oxo handheld retractable brush thing with the microfibre pad on the other end is actually great for laptops. Had one for a few years now and it keeps the screen and keyboard squeaky clean. The brush is soft by design so as not to damage laptop keys.
@@whalemonstre Have that one too and what people don't seem to mention about it is that those soft "nanobristles" actually swipe very fine dust out of screens way better than normal screen cleaning brushes. I tried out the Oxo when I got my monitor light bar and when I turned it one for the first time, realized that even though I brush my monitor on a daily basis, the very fine dust is still stuck on it which was very OCD triggering. To me, it's either one of those $.40 spray and wipe cleaners that Luke has, or the Oxo to clean it. Works all the time.
As a remote worker, the tiny, awful $4 vacuum is AMAZING for quick and relatively quiet crumb cleanup off the mousepad and desk during the inevitable over-lunch meeting.
Bro I just said this. From someone who has 4 of those little vacuum cleaners, THEY WORK. I even keep one in my car. They also come rechargable for 10 dollars. Some even have hardware for a little extension to reach hard spots.
Linus just completely broke Luke with the jokes and it's so nice to see Linus having more fun in videos, honestly taking a step back from management and being more on camera was a great move
True... But maybe making the announcement public and seeing the light at the end of the tunnel could have put a spring in his step about creating the content and engaging with it, kind of getting a head start on his future position in a way.
@@Brockzillagaming I know he hasn't stepped down just yet but he made the announcement and you could see he's physically happier and got spring in his step again
As it was with great satisfaction I watched Linus as a Japanese Meido maid cleaning stuff....here in Belgium we use something called a vacuum cleaner. Very easy and in every household 😂
A lot of cleaning wipes leave nasty, sticky, dust and grime collecting residue over time. It blew everyone’s mind when I looked up the specs of the “HP Washable” keyboards we had for over 5 years and found they were IP66 rated. Washed them with a soft brush in a sink, submerged, with soap, and they were ‘like new’ (minus physical wear). Still cleaning like that 10 years later!
Okay this was a great video but I also used it as motivation to clean my keyboard as a "play along". I can confirm that wet wipes and Linus' air blower thing are the best to use once a month. A stiff bristle brush would have been handy!
Having cats, that blower thingy (yes, I have one) is actually very useful removing cat hair both from the keyboard and the table. Not dirt or grime, of course, but it blows away hair easy enough.
I have the same blower for my work computer as well as some of the goopy stuff Linus started with. Both of them seem to do fairly well for cleaning in my use case.
you need to put luke in the thumnails man, i will watch anything with him but the core consept of this vid i might have passed on. the two of you together is always fun to watch.
I think it would be interesting to see a video about what techniques (or combination of techniques) is the most effective for cleaning a variety of electronics without the "must be from aliexpress" limitation
Ooooh, I'd love that! I'm eyeing that goop, but I'm curious if it's quantifiably more useful for keyboard upkeep (the sides of my keys where wipes don't reach are definitely looking a bit scary.)
Imagine seeing your boss in such an outfit being all happy and serious. XD Linus is such a good sport and together with Luke :D Ty for the laugh and nice video!
My God, that G710 was one hell of a keyboard back then. Really sad mine died. It was the one that got me really interested in keyboards, so yeah that costs me a lot of money now :x
0:25 Careful, you will drive Yvonne mad.. Making Vance even having to think about eating off the KB could be considered abuse. Personally, I have a compressor (2HP) and the mickey mouse gimmick cleaners are useless compared to that. And for cleaning, I just take the whole thing apart and run the key caps and frames through the dishwasher and they come out looking pretty newish, and any coffee/food/'other' spills are sanitized. Compressor works on laptops and desktops too, just be sure to not spin up fans and generate back voltage; I stick a rod or something in them to keep them from spinning.
Linus has fully embraced his role as no longer "Head of Overall Serious Business" and embraced whatever the heck his new role was called again. I promise you that title did NOT adequately convey that THIS was the direction Linus's was heading in 🤣❤
I bought that desktop vacuum immediately after seeing this. It cleans up cat hair, which is all I needed. It is excellent. Same day Amazon delivery, in case anyone thinks that wouldn't be possible in the time frame.
Luke is such a prima donna. Those wipes are perfectly fine for use, they are not the ipa 70% ones and use a much lesser amount of alcohol, they would NOT "destroy" your monitor(hence the pictures Showing You you can....hmmm gotta be a clue right?i). This is the problem with most people nowadays no one READS anything(like how if he just looked at the front of the box for a second and READ it, he would have known they were wipes before being surprised by this). Drives me nuts when people cry/speak badly on shit they clearly are not fully educated/aware of. They are made in America and the company themselves are based out of Canada, again how hard is this to understand. It literally gives you their Canada address and read's "Made in America"(that doesnt mean the company has to be from here as well, holyshit). The mannerism's and things being said were cringe af too im sorry. Look i get it, "it's supposed to be all in fun".... think im getting to old for this kinda stuff, or just how i see this happening everywhere(the ignorance and people simply NOT reading directions/labels to understand things, it is unbelievable).
You got balls ill give ya that. Plan on an influx of 15yr old LTT fanboys to jump down your throat on this one lol. However i do have to agree on mostly everything you said lmfao. Your right about the Wipes. They have pretty much perfect reviews, so yea I dont think they would have 5star if these wipes were "destroying" monitors" lmfao. It seems the company makes two different kinds, and these particular one's they have are completely fine actually. I will also agree on how no-one simply reads directions or takes the time to understand a product or whatever anymore, they mostly just assume. See this more often nowadays where someone will take 30+ minutes to figure out their new product, when simply just sitting down and reading the manual for 5minutes would help you understand and explain everything. It like they dont wanna be told or something idk, but yea everything i buy i always make sure to read up and learn about even before its here, then the manual as well when i get it. The "are they from Canada or America" thing i feel was just them fooling around, but maybe not. Again just like you explained, it's not hard to understand they are Canadian company but the product is being made in USA.
@@erictaylor1867 lol thanks man. Oh yea and im still hung up on why they just didnt call the video ....products from "AMAZON" since every single link to the product was from Amazon and not Aliexpress.

I have been using this method for decades and it always works and has never damaged a single screen.
Note, a mili fiber cloth is also referred to as a microfiber cloth but the loops in the cloth are larger. You buy them in a bunch and they come in different colours.
Seeing both Luke and Linus together in a video like this is fun to watch. They have good chemistry and it's funner to watch than WAN show IMO.
Anyone else notice how the laptop completely broke when Linus closed it?! 😂
18:59
It looked so bad.
I believe it was already broken,
I own very similar one and it have similar damage (broken hole where hinge screw is screwed)
I know for what to look at, and I can see this damage much earlier in the video (small gap between top and bottom part of chassis at the corner)
Who's going to let these guys test random cleaning products on their good laptop? 🙂
I've had this laptop a while ago, build quality absolutely sucked and it broke the same way for me regularly
ouch ...
In defence of the Oxo stuff: they're designed to be easy to grip for people with grip problems (arthritis, or nerve damage). So you're paying the ergonomic premium - but also they're usually pretty decent and durable.
The Oxo handheld retractable brush thing with the microfibre pad on the other end is actually great for laptops. Had one for a few years now and it keeps the screen and keyboard squeaky clean. The brush is soft by design so as not to damage laptop keys.
Yeah, I'm a huge fan of the brand generally, well-designed tools for the kitchen especially that in my experience have held up to justify the premium.
This… accessibility
@@whalemonstre Have that one too and what people don't seem to mention about it is that those soft "nanobristles" actually swipe very fine dust out of screens way better than normal screen cleaning brushes. I tried out the Oxo when I got my monitor light bar and when I turned it one for the first time, realized that even though I brush my monitor on a daily basis, the very fine dust is still stuck on it which was very OCD triggering. To me, it's either one of those $.40 spray and wipe cleaners that Luke has, or the Oxo to clean it. Works all the time.
I love seeing Luke on screen with Linus. So great to see them both outside of WAN show.
Anime Luke at the end!! 😂 I'm crying!!!!!!!!! So glad to see Luke in a video again and it's just pure banter with Linus. 10/10 video
As a remote worker, the tiny, awful $4 vacuum is AMAZING for quick and relatively quiet crumb cleanup off the mousepad and desk during the inevitable over-lunch meeting.
Bro I just said this. From someone who has 4 of those little vacuum cleaners, THEY WORK. I even keep one in my car. They also come rechargable for 10 dollars. Some even have hardware for a little extension to reach hard spots.
Its also really good for model building and cleaning up all the extra bits of plastic
Linus just completely broke Luke with the jokes and it's so nice to see Linus having more fun in videos, honestly taking a step back from management and being more on camera was a great move
He hasn't stepped back yet, he is still weeks out from stepping down from CEO. Plus this video would've been filmed a few weeks ago as well.
True... But maybe making the announcement public and seeing the light at the end of the tunnel could have put a spring in his step about creating the content and engaging with it, kind of getting a head start on his future position in a way.
@@Brockzillagaming I know he hasn't stepped down just yet but he made the announcement and you could see he's physically happier and got spring in his step again
@@Brockzillagaming
From what he said, while he still CEO up to this point, the new guy was already contracted to do the job in a provisional basis.
"full blast on my face"
Linus and Luke back at it again. Just like old times.
Thanks for all the hard work and content you guys do, it's really appreciated.

18:55 i love how linus broke the laptop as he closed it XD
it already was broken before
As it was with great satisfaction I watched Linus as a Japanese Meido maid cleaning stuff....here in Belgium we use something called a vacuum cleaner. Very easy and in every household 😂
Not sure if its just me but i love seeing Luke and Linus doing episodes together other then the weekly WAN Show
So good to see luke and linus in a video that's not just wan show.
Luke should be in more videos him and Linus are so natural together
I REALLY enjoyed this 😆 Thank you so much everyone involved in this!
These guys have such a great chemistry, they should do a podcast
Seeing Linus in fishnets wasn't on my bingo card for 2023 but here we are.
Clearly Linus got jealous when AMD bought Yvonne a new dress
He is looking cute with the cap on the cap
Id love to see smaller versions of challenges like this on the wan show this episode was hilarious (and Informative)
You should definitely put Luke and the costume on the thumbnail and this video would be an extreme success
A lot of cleaning wipes leave nasty, sticky, dust and grime collecting residue over time. It blew everyone’s mind when I looked up the specs of the “HP Washable” keyboards we had for over 5 years and found they were IP66 rated. Washed them with a soft brush in a sink, submerged, with soap, and they were ‘like new’ (minus physical wear). Still cleaning like that 10 years later!
8:28 a reminder that Linus built this company from the ground up, majority owner, and is a multimillionaire.
Linus: This is my keyboard, but I'll wear gloves for the other things
Also Linus: no gloves for the rest of the video
maid linus is the thing I needed in my life without knowing it
It's good to see such a happy couple, doing what they love
Okay this was a great video but I also used it as motivation to clean my keyboard as a "play along". I can confirm that wet wipes and Linus' air blower thing are the best to use once a month. A stiff bristle brush would have been handy!
It seems like Luke never actually knows when the final sponsor segway will come.. it's so cute ❤️
The laptop's hinge pretty much dismantling lol 19:00
Luke: "Wow, that's an enthusiastic little tool"
Linus: " 😏 That's not the first time I've been called that."
Lmao 😂😂😂
We love luke and linus. More of this duo again!
Linus and Luke videos gotta be the best of the best... I love it... #BRING_BACK_THE_LUKE
The version of linus that we have always wanted
If this was the first LTT video i ever saw, not knowing the whole story, I would honestly think that Luke and Linus make such a cute couple!
Having cats, that blower thingy (yes, I have one) is actually very useful removing cat hair both from the keyboard and the table. Not dirt or grime, of course, but it blows away hair easy enough.
I have the same blower for my work computer as well as some of the goopy stuff Linus started with. Both of them seem to do fairly well for cleaning in my use case.
you need to put luke in the thumnails man, i will watch anything with him but the core consept of this vid i might have passed on. the two of you together is always fun to watch.
Great seeing Luke again. Makes me long for scrapyard wars to see who can out cheat the other.
It's really nice & fun to see both Linus and Luke have fun in a video
love linus is always an amazing creator and that you will never find anyone else like him
14:19 I was NOT ready to see Linus in fishnets today
But r u ready 2 see leenus on fake boobs?
watch?v=TkF_OiBvnLg
YESSSSSS! MORE LUKE AND LINUS NON-WAN VIDEOS LIKE THIS! Please.
Favourite channel on UA-cam hands down.
I think it would be interesting to see a video about what techniques (or combination of techniques) is the most effective for cleaning a variety of electronics without the "must be from aliexpress" limitation
Ooooh, I'd love that! I'm eyeing that goop, but I'm curious if it's quantifiably more useful for keyboard upkeep (the sides of my keys where wipes don't reach are definitely looking a bit scary.)
When his kids are older and more aware of his shenanigans…linus is gonna be that dad that embarrasses them for the laughs >
You're saying he isn't already?
@@Metal_Maxine Theyre not fully aware yet haha
Petition to bring back scrapyard wars!
Imagine seeing your boss in such an outfit being all happy and serious.
XD Linus is such a good sport and together with Luke :D
Ty for the laugh and nice video!
You know you are getting good stuff when luke and linus is together
The fact that Linus wore the maid outfit the entire time 💀
My God, that G710 was one hell of a keyboard back then. Really sad mine died. It was the one that got me really interested in keyboards, so yeah that costs me a lot of money now :x
Luke didn't know what he was getting himself into.... 🤣🤣🤣
Luke making fun of ltt store shoutouts is the best ad for ltt store I've seen 😂
Linus in a cleaning lady outfit with the spritzer "ooh that's a really fine mist" is just *chef's kiss*.
0:25 Careful, you will drive Yvonne mad.. Making Vance even having to think about eating off the KB could be considered abuse. Personally, I have a compressor (2HP) and the mickey mouse gimmick cleaners are useless compared to that. And for cleaning, I just take the whole thing apart and run the key caps and frames through the dishwasher and they come out looking pretty newish, and any coffee/food/'other' spills are sanitized.
Compressor works on laptops and desktops too, just be sure to not spin up fans and generate back voltage; I stick a rod or something in them to keep them from spinning.
Linus is KILLING it in the videos lately.
Linus has fully embraced his role as no longer "Head of Overall Serious Business" and embraced whatever the heck his new role was called again. I promise you that title did NOT adequately convey that THIS was the direction Linus's was heading in 🤣❤
I bought that desktop vacuum immediately after seeing this. It cleans up cat hair, which is all I needed. It is excellent.
Same day Amazon delivery, in case anyone thinks that wouldn't be possible in the time frame.
First we get Yvonne and Linus and now Luke and Linus back to back. Truely we are blessed.
OXO actually makes pretty decent kitchen tools and gadgets but I didn’t know they had pc stuff
And the oxo product they didn't use works well on keyboards and cleaning up tablet and laptop screens.
Linus got me acting unwise 🥵
Luke is such a prima donna. Those wipes are perfectly fine for use, they are not the ipa 70% ones and use a much lesser amount of alcohol, they would NOT "destroy" your monitor(hence the pictures Showing You you can....hmmm gotta be a clue right?i). This is the problem with most people nowadays no one READS anything(like how if he just looked at the front of the box for a second and READ it, he would have known they were wipes before being surprised by this). Drives me nuts when people cry/speak badly on shit they clearly are not fully educated/aware of. They are made in America and the company themselves are based out of Canada, again how hard is this to understand. It literally gives you their Canada address and read's "Made in America"(that doesnt mean the company has to be from here as well, holyshit). The mannerism's and things being said were cringe af too im sorry. Look i get it, "it's supposed to be all in fun".... think im getting to old for this kinda stuff, or just how i see this happening everywhere(the ignorance and people simply NOT reading directions/labels to understand things, it is unbelievable).
You got balls ill give ya that. Plan on an influx of 15yr old LTT fanboys to jump down your throat on this one lol. However i do have to agree on mostly everything you said lmfao. Your right about the Wipes. They have pretty much perfect reviews, so yea I dont think they would have 5star if these wipes were "destroying" monitors" lmfao. It seems the company makes two different kinds, and these particular one's they have are completely fine actually. I will also agree on how no-one simply reads directions or takes the time to understand a product or whatever anymore, they mostly just assume. See this more often nowadays where someone will take 30+ minutes to figure out their new product, when simply just sitting down and reading the manual for 5minutes would help you understand and explain everything. It like they dont wanna be told or something idk, but yea everything i buy i always make sure to read up and learn about even before its here, then the manual as well when i get it. The "are they from Canada or America" thing i feel was just them fooling around, but maybe not. Again just like you explained, it's not hard to understand they are Canadian company but the product is being made in USA.
@@erictaylor1867 lol thanks man. Oh yea and im still hung up on why they just didnt call the video ....products from "AMAZON" since every single link to the product was from Amazon and not Aliexpress. Is there some youtube regulation stating your not allowed to list Aliexpress sites? lmfao so weird....
THIS! MORE LINUS AND LUKE AND DAN AND JAKE AND JAMES STUFF! TOTAL SAVAGE MODE ON with the most savage people at LMG!
if this is the new video format with the new ceo im 1000% here for it its like watching the old videos again
Who's here after Linus got back from Rehab dumping Coke in his PC?
Here!
So this is Linus' vision for LMG as the new Chief Vision Officer and I am all for it
24:50 Carry Minati from AliExpress
IP65 Waterproof keyboard, the best PC investments I ever made. Straight under the tap every few weeks, back to as new.
I love Luke so much. I NEED more Luke and Linus content
