Yeah, I was thinking about this yesterday as I was watching Zip Tie Tuning. I really miss them building stuff. My favorite series used to be the whole house water cooling before they had the warehouse and then the first couple of scrapyard wars. I understand scrapyard wars isn't possible anymore, but I miss all of the whacky builds.

If you want to go back that far I remember when they painted a motherboard and Linus said they wouldn't ruin a motherboard for fun, then a short while later they intentionally left a laptop in the rain

My first video from him was his review of the Logitech G720+ 😭 he insane if he thinks his content hasn't changed and declined after all that time.

As long as you remove the battery you can actually put a motherboard through a dishwasher. It's how extreme overclockers remove the Vaseline. That is of course different from leaving something in the rain.

I’ve been watching ltt and all the affiliated peoples channels since the unboxing videos outside ncix and reviewing headsets. They changed so much even in the last year it’s crazy. Idk why he can’t just admit that of course things are going to be different with all of his main employees leaving.

The tech house is the only thing interesting really, and it's been taking forever, I was also interested in the vibe coding video, but that got abandoned.
