Challenge Linus

I hereby challenge Linus (and crew) to take on some viewers or forum members challenges,  the community creates them, maybe they go to a vote and then you have to complete the challenge, whether it's building outrageous systems, or basically whatever the community decides (within reason). Will bring more viewers to the channels and more to the forums (forum exclusive challenges?). Anyway, let me know what you think.

It would be very nice if they started doing video content alongside interacting with the Forum public once again, that kind of thing is neat but lately on the videos at least even wan show they barely rarely mention the Forum at all.

Like... what? I know I'm skeptical to suggestion, maybe even more than Linus himself. But if you give absolutely no examples, its hard to know what you actually want as outcome.

as stated in my original post, it could be whatever the community decides, off the top of my head it could be say build a pc from an actual scrapyard (probably not possible), that's what would make it interesting because you never know what people are going to suggest, there could also be a forfeit if they fail etc.

How about this a all in one server rack desk with custom cooling, Slide out draws for servers to work on. Sorta like a custom audio rack set up but for the home with room on top for 2 pc's built into the top with special slide out draws, and a custom cooling for overclocking servers and other hardware as well as multiple displays and under mounted keyborad tray system. I have it sorta thoughtout and planed out some of this project. But lack the resources to do something like this though. i will be working on it more. Contact me if you need more details or ideas. Thanking of a used Linux setup for servers with the 2 top pcs running windows for gameing. would like to set a data center and have a whole enterprise look and grade as much as possible. Looking at old servers and hardware.Planing to build desk and well as cooling my self have a couple ideas but could use some help.

No more like from the desk from. GAMING at 16K RESOLUTION?? – HOLY $H! And the sub zero cooling loop rolled into one. With rack mounted draws. But that is quite enough to be a Display desk. Now this is ispired by these not a copy the focus is the desk in 16k resolution not the system. As well ispiration comes from audio studio and their looks with all racks in arms reach, that is a mulitiply servers(ie data center, ftp), routers, and switches. With 2 pcs built into the top with tempered glass top.
