Scrapyard Wars is already a money-losing proposition for us until we can find some big sponsors for it. Single part feature length videos just aren't doable with our current model :(

Would love to see some sponsors help you guys out for Scrapyard Wars.  It is, at least in my opinion, as equally as entertaining as everything else LMG produces.  But I do love the high end gear you guys show off as well.  Especially all your server grade stuff for the new Office.  That shit is f******* cool!

He has the right to dislike if he wants to. Disliking != Disrespecting. I don't think he said anything that should get you all defensive IMHO.

Everyone should just get along.  Agree to disagree about whether its a good thing or a bad thing.  In the end we get a Linus video to watch that is entertaining regardless......

 

 

//sorry for replying three different times.  I was reading through the thread and kept wanting to reply.

It's what he gets for dinking around with his phone while driving.  

 

I can deal with irresponsible handling of computer hardware.  Irresponsible driving on the other hand...

 

Time to move LMG to Nunavut, Linus.  Here's the pitch: Embed your computer rads in your igloo.  No fans! Perfectly silent.  Which is good, because the acoustics of fans in an igloo probably suck.

I agree with you 100%. Distracted driving is irresponsible and dangerous. That's why I wanted to call it out. I was wondering why it wasn't cut out of the episode then when he got pulled over I was like... justice served.

Luke spent a lot of time on this laptop in front of the bank. I would be bothered to see someone on their laptop in the car in the bank parking lot. 

 

I assume people still try that thing where they modify the ATMs to scan your card and record your pin number.

I get that Eds on time constraints, but I feel they could have fairly quickly found a hardcore vocalist to growl out the the title card, and an actual Australian to read out the bumper.

Perhaps the only reason I think that is because where I am, seemingly everyman and their dog is a vocalist for a crappy local hardcore band.

 

Can't wait for more [scrapyard wars, not Australian hardcore/metal bands, we have enough of those now].

I really like this series, reminds me of the good old Top Gear challenges. However your naming convention sucks ass, maybe do Season # Episode # rather than the current Episode # Letter, or Challenge and Episode #.

 

So the $300 budget gaming rig could have been Season 1, episodes 1-3 and the current $500 watercooling challenge could be Season 2 episodes 1-whatever.

 

Also I haven't seen episode 2 yet because it's behind the damn paywall, but yall need to calm your tits about "distracted driving".

What happened to 'early access'? Is that not the point of Vessel? Just curious as to the point of uploading a video to Vessel, and YouTube at the same time?

You are building oil-submerged systems, storage arrays with 36 ssd's, you are messing with sockets and cooling of dual 18 core xeons, you are building a whole room water cooling in an office you will leave...

But when you make a video about something we can actually use or do ourselves, you put it on a paid channel because creating a scrapyard wars about 300 USD computers is too expensive??

i don't think you understand there buddy all those things are sponsored no money came out of his pocket, where as scrapyard wars they don't have sponsors for so anything they do is with their own cash YouTube ads don't make much(as far as i know) and some people still use ad block like D-bags

I really like this show and how ghetto it is build up. It relates much more to my real experience of computer building (though a bit over the top of course), than those ultmate omgwtfbbq builds like that ultrasmall build; "oh, I have this other ram and other watercooling laying around that fits".

 

Maybe for next episodes you could invite other tech youtubers over to collaborate in it? I bet the guy from Tek Syndicate would be a great competitor.

Just watched it and of course it was great. I have to say, Linus is all over the place while Luke seems to be moving a long lol. It'll be cool to see how this turns out!
