What did ever happen to Ivan? I know he left LMG a few years ago, but to do what?

Ivan is and forever will be known as "Crazy Russian" in my mind, from the handcam LTT videos in the NCIX office days.

we'll never know for sure, LMG seemed to not want to disclose it, which is fair

Yea I know that is the current official answer, I just remembered in the past they had mentioned his position was temporary. It wasn't something I made up, just something I remember, but sadly don't remember wherefrom (there is some many hundreds of hours of LTT content, so pretty hard to find that one specific mention :()

But I'll stop the speculation on it now, before I pry too much into personal information.

Slowly, I nibbled on his ear and told him to drop them faster and harder than he does review samples.   Then I looked him in the eyes and said, "I'm entering LMG."  He took it harder than Dennis's body pillow.  The end?  Not for him...this isn't a tech quickie...

who/what introduced you to ltt and lmg as a whole

 

I go back... a long time. Really long time. Can't recall which video was the first one I watched (as YouTube play history doesn't go back that far) but I did end up buying a Patriot Box Office media player (thanks to aasoror for all the custom firmware), Panasonic Eneloop battery set, and a couple Picquic screwdrivers.

I started watching ltt videos like 6 years ago. I watched it in secret cause that was old LTT where there were more dick jokes then than lttstore.com plugs now.

 

Speaking of secrets, if you want to keep your lttstore.com browsing safe check out tunnel-bear VPN.

I will recommend an NHu12s (or an NHd15 (maybe)) for your PC build. Quote or @ me @Prodigy_Smit for me to see your replies.

It was a techquickie about cpu sockets. Started watching some of the other techquickies then found the ltt channel. First video I saw was the whole room water cooling project.

I really only started watching tech youtubers in about mid 2017, and had occasionally seen an ltt video in my recommended but never clicked. I found out later that techquickie was produced by the same team as ltt, a channel that I had watched on and off since about 2015.

I think this was the first one I watched.

Doing research into building a pc for a friend back in 2015, at the time I was very clueless (Brother did most of the work for my build)
