Do you guys upload at a different time now?

Either way, cool stuff :D

 

EDIT:

Cool video :D 

The format is pretty good, I would prefer it to be a bit quicker though.

But these small tip videos are a great idea to broaden your horizon, if you know what I'm saying.

We're the only people who don't mind you getting done early. Nick.

 

Your plans for tonight? Is it a one on one with Hotline Miami?

No. We hate it when we can watch awesome LTT videos early. It's so infuriating. :D

That's a REALLY good idea, especially if you are like me, and have your PC right next to your monitors, with a gigantic birds nest of wires behind the monitors.

 

I like the format, I'd like to see more, especially with lighting mods, for instance "best place to hide LED lights from view inside the case" etc.

Ketchup is better than mustard.

GUI is better than Command Line Interface.

Dubs are better than subs

Can you link to the exact one Linus used?

 

Requesting this as well (for Nick.) It looks like from the package in the video it's probably from a 3rd party seller. Seems like the going price is ~$15-$20 when I would have guessed $5 for something like this. Maybe $10 if it was prime eligible.

 

Good format video. Much better than dumb headphone reviews. This is what a "tip" video should be about.
