Just a side note that Bilibili don't monetize (obviously) pirated video (but allows videos being posted if the OP doesn't claims it). Those dudes were huge fans and glad to know they get to work with who they loved.
I think so.----love from China. XD
@@user-kw5qm2hq4u isn't CZcams banned in china?

@@CrafterOscar he's very likely using a vpn or lives in a free trade zone
@@CrafterOscar Yeah it is, but there is always another way 🤪
The hardline tubing is bought pre-bent... It would crack the finish if you tried to bend them.. That's why only 1 bend per piece.
you could just use copper plumbing and bend it with a tube bender than polish it.
@@shanemitchell477 but is it gold?
@@justinlabarge8178 No it's copper, but you can polish it, and it nearly looks like gold.
@@shanemitchell477 Uhhhm, polished brass looks like gold, not copper. But you can quite easily goldplate copper.
@@simasimson5798 it's not brass it's pure copper
That multi-water cooling loop setup is the same way that the International Space Station regulates temperature. They have an internal water cooling loop running a heat exchanger to a sub-zero capable fluid that runs to radiators outside the station. The fact that that guy is running functionally the same principled setup as the freaking space station is wild.
It's also the same kind of heat exchanging system that allows nuclear reactors to separate their radioactive internal water from the lake/river water they take in and expel.
As an engineering nerd, to see content coming from one of the tech megacities in Asia, and seeing how far and exciting engineering is out there in the other part of the world - I'm so glad this video exists. And that guy who posted confidential hardware ... lol. Nice one.
Props to LTT for handling the pirate team properly. "They're doing it for free already? Let's give them a budget and make it official so we can ensure quality."
And they really live up to their salary. They do really good job translating the puns in LTT videos.
@@peterji5109 translating puns? I thought that was impossible, massive respect to them
@@XVIIstarPt_ tranlating puns usually does not work, they usually are replaced with a similar pun in the context given
@@peterji5109 Hey, where can I find that channel? Watching Linus in Chinese dub intrigues me =)
@@Vassay it’s subtitles not dubs
Linus hiring the people who stole their videos is literally so based
I genuinely respect LTT for doing this.
Yoo
@@mirrorsandstuff they also weren't trying to steal their videos per say just help spread them into China cause they where LTT fans
Today they call it reacting not stealing.
I'd assume so,
Like with Garage54 I can't speak siberia language so I just watch their CZcams videos in English dubbing
Having someone around to make stuff more available is luxury
//Inb4 someone tries to derail the talk about *availability itself being a luxury* by thinking they're contributing
//yaaay it happened anyways! --I can always resort to calling it 'gibberish' or 'funny-poot-man-noises' to make the comment even LESS formal. Oooo! Or changing the channel name to some other obscure channel whose users have insanely polarized viewpoints on what their local dialect should be called so you can never choose a 'correct' correction. That would be fun! , but let's face it: The point(being: getting lucky and having channels around to make stuff available in other regions) would still fly over your heads 🤭 y'all got some severe nervous hangups to be hyperfocusing on that one thing in specific
0:03 Touhou Hijack in the intro! The mousepad has Lunasa, Merlin, and Lyrica Prismriver. They are the stage 4 boss to Touhou 7: Youyoumu ~ Perfect Cherry Blossom.
21:50 those are Itanium submodules. They look like they might be from an HP Integrity RX2800 i4 server (altough the heatsinks in these were nickel plated, I've never seen them in bare copper).
The whole assembly integrated the CPU, VRMs and heatsink into one unit that could be quickly replacable (HP Integrity servers were aimed at high availability, 99.999 %).
22:00 that looks like a testing/qualification board or something like that for Sandy Bridge Xeons. It has two different sockets on it, LGA 1356 on top (Sandy Bridge-EN) and LGA 2011 (Sandy Bridge-EP) on bottom. The EN had three channel memory, and the EP had four channel memory.
Cool.
Just as a clarification, the people who pirated LTT videos had never gained any benefits from uploading them. Most of the people are LTT fans who are passionate about promoting LTT on Chinese medias. Also, Bilibili has very strict protocols of how video uploaders should verify those video as "not original" and they should also state the URL of origin in the description. Yet, it is so happy to see Linus gave them approval to translate those video officially so more Chinese users could have the opportunities to know this great channel. Fantastic job Linus and wish you guys all the best luck in the new year!
In the bilibili platform, if the video uploaded by the user is actively marked as "reprinted", then the user will not receive any revenue. This is probably a special product of China's special network environment.
@@TrilliCents Just because they can't access THIS platform and wanna see more intresting things out there. like me.
happy chinese new year!
Yeah it's great. So they didnt even "steal" the videos, just pushed them along the pipeline to expose more people to them. Its a no-brainer LTT could pay them to do it officially and earn money from it since they already have the setup working. It's literally free money for LTT.
That's actually amazing thank you for the clarification!!
I am so blown away by the awesomeness of hiring the pirates to do it on the level. what a classy move. I love it.
Privateers by now xD
They prefer the term Fan-subber/dubber.
Haven't seen Linus laugh this hardcore for a while
Right lol, he's really into it!
Indeed brother
We definitely need more of this! Linus plz do more Chinese set up reactions, I can't help laughing, dude this is just a whole another level stuff
26:30 Yes Steam has Themes/Skins (Worldwide). They never made a big deal out of it. Also i think you need to get them Third Party. But Steam has a dedicated Skins Folder. After Putting it into the Folder just Restart Steam and than go to settings / Interface and apply your skin and Restart again.
On the Old Steam from like +10 years ago i had a nice Stargate background. Great times...
Ive been running "Metro for Steam" for years now and its been amazing. Way better than that old steam standard look and the first thing i do when i reinstall steam. Probably one of the few skins that have been kept mostly upt to date, sad that steam skins have been lost to forget.
@@thetaco_007 Interesting. Do you have to update it often or is it just a thing you have to do once a year or something ?
@@mrn234 I rarely do. The only times i check the website for updates is when i notice bugs on the overlay mostly caused when valve introduces a new overlay feature or change. Which isnt often at all haha. Lasts sometimes a year, mostly longer though :)
Thanks for the tech tip
Basically，these ideas comes from a community called "图拉丁吧" in Baidu Tieba，which means "Tualatin Bar". It's a place of using cheap hardware to build PCs. Because of they use they budget buying faster hardware so they try to cut the price of other part for their PC，like using paper case or plastic bottle as case. It's also a amazing place to talking about modding hardware like P106 mining card or QL2X modified laptop CPUs.

It is highly recommended that make it as a series. The Chinese also have many amazing ideas, such as using carrots to make heatsinks🤣

This was the most entertaining video I have seen all week. Thanks LTT and happy Friday all!
I want to see LTT do a PC inside a detergent bottle.
And melt it because they used top tier hardware lol
I think the meme was a 1 gallon bottle of lotion computer.
Detergent? ohhh no, go to a store that sells restaurant/hotel supplies and find a Giant Jergens hand lotion bottle. put the PC in that and have an external GPU done up to look like a tissue box.
Yes
@@joescalon541 with Kleenex box next to it
Wow my triple monitor solution been the first to shown in the video! So glad Linus likes it.
In fact, apart from the LCD panel itself, its driver boards, wires, and those metal hinges, everything else is made of carbon fiber. It's actually not very wise choice, because it's just too expensive to buy and cut so much carbon fiber.
By using so much carbon fiber, I think it's even bulletproof in a way when its folded. (When folded, the total carbon fiber thickness is about 7.5mm)
老哥牛逼
我在b站也看到了，这个应该是最有可能商业化的
It must be pretty light with this much carbon

"Is dust not a thing in China?" "It's definitely a thing," made me chuckle
Reminded me of that one dude that went around Beijing with an industrial vacuum, and used the dust collected from the air to make a brick.
it is excessively a thing. they might have the worst air quality in the world.
@@oldfrend depends on where you go. A few years back it was horrible in some cities that burnt coal for heating. and the worst part is the north wind spread the smog to places which don't have heating. But now the air quality in big cities is comparable to that of LA and NY, and really good in remote places
@@oldfrend Fake news made by western media, try to get the truth.
@@oldfrend how time flies my friend
The CPU in food is like a parody of those men putting their Rolex watch on their food and taking a picture.
The what now
Someone in my high school put a wad of cash in a bowl full of milk and took a picture of it
Chips and dip it's been done
CPU next to a bowl of dip
Not sure about the "food" part, but a few years ago some dude was showing off his "wealth" with a photo of his hand, resting on the steering wheel of a Ferrari (?), wearing a Rolex and waving a stack of money. That started a wave of _ruthless_ parodies where people would strap a wall clock on their wrist waving monopoly money etc.
Yeah, there was also a video of some guy who put his submariner in a glass of whisky. Poor watch, and poor whisky, some people dont deserve nice things
It's cool that LTT hired the people translating the videos. That's some really weird but also cool or unique PCs.
Congrats dude! 👏 very much appreciate your contribution to the world, keep it commin! 🍻
That gas stove PC conversion is actually so sick. It's so cyberpunk. I could see something like that being in Ghost In the Shell or Blade Runner.
You could always run an old bulldozer CPU and actually use it to cook food xD
@@Kholaslittlespot1 Just melt some tin on a piece of copper attached to the heat sink and use it like a copper fry pan. 😆
Agreed., especially with the gritty, used world the majority of Ghost In The Shell has. I can 100% see this being used by some criminal on the fly.
Pretty sure joke is that is running so hot you can boil water on it..hence stove.
copper pipes, why not ?
This could honestly be turned into like an LTT scrapyard wars game where the theme is to disguise the pc into a random household appliance!!
Pleast make it a thing!
In the 50's and 60's, TV and radio equipment were made to look like furniture.
@@Thelango99 They were not made to fool anyone about being furniture. Their cases were made similar to contemporary furniture so as to fit into a household with out seeming like an odd thing that wouldn't otherwise fit the rest of a room esthetic.
I'd like to see either that or a scrapyard wars 'sleeper pc' type deal. Frankly I'd just like to see Scrapyard Wars in literally any capacity, though, lol.
There's so much untapped potential in that idea, wow! They for sure need to make it a thing!
I wanna see this lol
Congratulations on your debut Shiorin! Looking forward to your future streams! 🥰
I know Linus has always been cool toward video translation and this time he even enlisted them as official to get more content idea. And you don't have to deal with the headache that could follow after you decide to tackle the market yourself, absolutely fascinating.
And having contractors go to Shenzhen for the wildest parts straight from the factory is a good idea
Way to hook them up with legit jobs guys. It's good seeing a business that can work things out and make it work.
those guys werent really tryign to screw them over, rather help get more people to be able to watch, they were fans :d
it's more like getting your over seas content fan subbed because the creator never published them in your region
@Ademir Avdić true but you know they could have handled it a different way as most tech companies would have.
The reverse nintendo.
@@silentgamer5636 this is the way most Chinese companies do business. Steal good ideas from everyone because there are zero consequences.
This needs to be a series, but every episode is a different community.
The issue is it may be hard to isolate other communities like they did china, as the other communities are all mostly on the same CZcams channel.
I want to see one from those Japanese PC otaku.
We might see a lot of old-school retro Japanese only PC like NEC's PC-98 :))

for people who are not familiar, technically the Bilibili translation group did break copyright laws, the biggest reason it is possible for LTT have them transformed into official contractors but not finding new groups is that, there were no monetization whatsoever for those videos when they were "stolen" from LTT, merely a window for Chinese viewers who do not use youtube or simply cant understand english better.
There are no copyright laws in china. At least not ones that are enforced by the authorities.
@@hyperturbotechnomike That is the case 20 years ago. Not today.
There are no copyright laws in China so technically they didn't do anything wrong
@@YoungCorruption There *are* copyright laws in China. Except that they don't criminalize copyright infringement conducted without the intent of gaining profit. So the group was actually doing the translation for free before being hired by LTT.
@@andyfu9651 LMFAO, ask that to recent Tiktok bought out by CCP company, how does law enforcement work in China again?
The metal tubes come with right angles from the store. Each run should have exactly one so angle adapters are needed to make additional direction changes.
this was super interesting, please considering making another one in the future
Taiwan uses a north American plug, so its possible someone in Taiwan probably enjoys LTT in Chinese
Yeah. UGCs are available on Bilibili w/o region lock.
Everyone in China uses power strips or 1-to-3 outlet expanders that have multi-way receptacles. They have slits for the North American style, round holes that overlap the slits, and the official outlet shape superimposed. Some power strips have a couple positions with different (more) patterns.
Many items found in the markets have power cords that are not right for China. They probably piggy-back the volume production that they manufacture for export.
BTW, the "Chinese" language is like saying much of western Europe speaks the "European" language. You might recognize 8 distinct languages have a family resemblance as Romance languages, but you can't call that category itself a language. In Taiwan Hong Kong they speak Cantonese. In mainland China they speak Mandarin.
@@JohnDlugosz People in Taiwan mostly speak Mandarin. Some speak Taiwanese Hokkien or Hakka (mostly older generations nowadays in my experience), but few speak Canto. You may be getting confused with Hong Kong, where Cantonese is most people's first language (alongside English and, increasingly, Mandarin).
Also, while the note on the diversity of languages spoken in the region is very much true (Cantonese and Mandarin, for instance, are far less mutually intelligible than Italian and Spanish), the pedantry isn't really necessary; many people in those areas themselves simply say they speak/read/write 'Chinese', and will specify if needed.
Source: literally just got back from spending a month in Hong Kong yesterday, after travelling there from Taiwan.
@@JohnDlugosz Well people on Taiwan island speak Mandarin and Hakka. People in Hong Kong, Macau and Guangdong province speak cantonese.
I visit Thailand a lot, and I bring my US plugs with me. Just depends when the house/hotel was made.. and if it can or cannot accept it.
It made me very happy that you engaged with that team to officially handle your content. Thank you for doing all that you do!
yes, video, prob. done more for international relations most movement solutions?
keep them coming?
Username checks out
I love that you saw people were translating your videos for free and said "Let's pay them to keep doing it"
The laptop with water-cooling is quite neat, I've seen one very similar to it selling here in Brazil and basically it has two pipes in the back where you can connect the radiator, OR you can just use the built-in fans for less demanding stuff. It's still quite a pain to plug and unplug stuff though...
the can speaker guy's microphone was insane. 16:28 It's just a tiny microphone stuck directly into the motherboard.

Thats the ultimate way to reduce voice input latency. No cable at all.

Please do more videos with content from chinese viewers. This was one of my favorite videos in a while, way more interesting to me personally than people in the US's set ups
I think they can do a part2. Andy said they had received over 400 emails and mine is not including in this video. uwu
@@altgr391 you should make a video of your setup! We'd all like to see it
@@Kholaslittlespot1 Nah, mine was focus on homelab sided and a VR drive sim setup. I spent about 300usd to get a retired 96g 24tb dell server. Just having fun building a VMware data center stuff and hosting all kinds of game server. Same as Linus who likes to place server at home, trying to get all the cloud services to local. xD
Those lights on top of the monitors are cool btw!!. I'm in England and use them at work on the broadcast machines... great ambience 😁
28:23 for some reason Linus remembering that jake is a car guy and saying "JAKE ITS A CARPUTER" is so sweet to me
4:44 Based on the interior decoration, the ceiling, the window with the window bars, and the North American sockets, I assume it is from Taiwan. Also, the additional characters printed on the keycaps (I can only recognize the 'backslash' key) tell me that it is a Taiwanese version of the Corsair Strafe keyboard.
7:24 I'm sure that's not a Heatkiller cpu block from Watercool. It's an aquacomputer cuplex kryos NEXT cpu block.
Yup, not a lot of people know that Taiwan uses NA sockets, though older buildings may only have 2 prong. I ran into grounding issues on my builds back in the day and my PC case would periodically shock me... Janky times, do not miss it LOL
👍
Alternatively I was thinking Japan uses 2 prong sockets and has a lot of chinese people.
Yeah, but Taiwan is not China.
@@TheSkytherMod @TheSkytherMod think about how this video was made. LTT probably did something on bilibili and was like for Chinese new year send us your PC builds, this person probably saw that and was like I celebrate Chinese new year let me send some builds.
These Chinese fellas are real creative.
The slogan of the "Tualatin Bar" is for whoever comes with a 500 bucks budget for a desktop setup. You must figure out a setup that meets his requirement within 50 bucks
laughed a few times here, I especially like the chines watercooling techniques :)
15:40 The watercooler setup for my laptop is also fairly big. Yes desktop- components would be more powerful and not as " janky", and also I only want one machine for home and travel. But I actually have good industrial quick disconnects on the laptop because my work requires alot of travel and hotel stays. I can still use it in " air- mode" without the water cooler because my waterblocks are set on top the stock heatpipes for the CPu and GPU :)
Seriously the Chinese builds are so creative compared to the ones Linus roasted before that just screams "i'm poor" only
well these are not expensive either, or from rich chinese people, the only diference is that in China is way cheaper to buy hardware then anywhere else... since all is made there...
@@kiiikoooPT But the truth is for most of of pc hardwares like CPU, GPU, mb and so on, the price in China is at least 10% than that in US. The only kind of goods that have price advantage in China are those cases, fans, RGB lightbar and other accessories that are purely designed and made in China.
@@acidhclhuang7666 impossible, the cpu's and gpu's are all made in china to, so no import fees and taxes, it has to be cheaper there, if it isn't well Chinese governament and population is stupid, and I dont really believe that...
@@kiiikoooPT You may be talking about the Taiwan region that owns TSMC? In Chinese mainland, most computer-related products will be more expensive than in countries such as Europe and the United States, even if they are produced in Chinese mainland and China, thanks to patent fees
@@kiiikoooPT No. it's actually more expensive. I was there in 2011 when tried to buy a laptop. Even now, it's still more expensive. USA has the best deals and most likely the cheapest hardwares 99% of the time regardless if they're American brands or foreign brands.
For the metal hardline, it's likely that they bought pre-bent 90º tubes, so multiple bends wasn't an option
Came here to comment this
Apparently the finish cracks if you put multiple bends in, I think the owner of the system commented that
I’m with Andy about the light bar. Give it a try for a bit, Linus! I personally use mine because my desk is small and used to read textbooks and such for school, not just gaming 😆
the so-called "subtitle groups" in China is some of the most awesome human being in the world. They "pirate" or download videos (usually anime, sometimes others like music or tech) from youtube or niconico(both inaccessable in China), translate them for free, then upload for everyone to enjoy.
And they did it often with insane quality as well. For some anime that has a official translation subtitle, people will usually wait until the unofficial "subtitle group" to do a better job, then watch the subtitle group version instead of the official version.
These are the kind of people that will sit in front of the computer for a new amine episode to release in japan. Then after one or two hours, boom, you can watch the new episode in bilibili, with subtitles, in insanely high quality, completely for free. They are the unsung hero of the Chinese internet, doing work just because they also love a creator or work. Being hired to do what they love as their job is the best thing that could've happened to these amazing people.
(the one that did the translation for LTT is called 辉光字幕组NixieSubs, and they're one of the most devoted subtitle group that I've ever seen, going to the length of explaining many of the culture-specific terms in the subtitle, and making sure jokes/puns will still work after translation)
This made my day, they are so wholesome and nice. Bless them
As an asian person, I stand by Andy and the monitor light, its actually beneficial when you have your room lights turned off but you dont want to strain your eyes on the monitor screen, the light bar helps in that regard, because many of us use computers with the room lights off at night cuz example, you dont want to annoy your roommate in a dorm room, or your parents complaining why is the light still on at 1am or so on.
Edit: yes exactly like a modern desk lamp that doesnt take space on the desk. This was the example i was thinking of haha, sorry it was late.
No, get the LEDs that cast light behind the monitor onto the wall for that purpose.
@@ulamss5 that doesn't help if you need to light something on the desk. light behind the monitor would have to be so much brighter to be useful in front of the monitor.
I don't get the hate for those monitor lights, they're basically the modern version of the desk lamp, with the added benefit that they don't take up extra space, they don't get in the way, and they evenly light up the area *in front* of the monitor, which is exactly where one needs light the most. They don't light up the screen itself, but rather the keyboard and mouse, or whatever you put in front of it.
@@jasonkojro-badziak you are talking about an entirely different use case, irrelevant to this thread
@@ulamss5 ??? That's exactly why you get those things, that's how they're advertised and that's how you're supposed to use them... Nobody is actually going to shine a light at a monitor that is literally giving off light
That metal tubing one, I remember from a Jayztwocents build, they come pre-bent and you don't want to actually bend them or you'll ruin the finish on them.
The light bar does not put light on your monitor, it puts it on your desk and backlights your monitor. It is great when you hate your main lights in the room. Best for those that like lower lights in the room. Linus needs to use one for a month and try it.
It also works great as a little low profile work light for writing, or drawing, or assembling Lego.
17:41 @Linus, it is specifically made to not shine on your screen with the help of a mirror. You can also change the light temperature. It is like a Studio light for productivity on your desk. :)
27:40 100% a collection.
These were way more creative then the past builds in setup roasts! I'm also curious about how the whole officially-hiring-the-bilibili-translators thing went, is there a video explaining how that went down somewhere?
The so-called translators are no doubt CCP spies...
I remember this was a stream openboxing the Bilibili version of the play button medal in which Linus and Dennis talked about this.
Here is the whole stream: czcams.com/video/_OfpyONaBQw/video.html
Basically, there was group of people who knows English and Chinese well, and knows how to use CZcams. They like LTT videos very much and want more people in China to watch them, so they translate the videos and reupload them to Bilibili and other Chinese video sites. After a while, LTT staffs (I assume Dennis) found that there were people reuploading their videos without permission (therefore privating), and Linus just thinks it is actually a good idea to translate and upload the videos for Chinese viewers. So they made contract and hired the translators so that they can upload videos with permission, sometimes even arrange events like this one.
One of my favorite LTT videos. It's so funny seeing these meme rigs and super braggy ones.
I'd be curious what the heating power would be of that stove PC. Like could you keep a pot of tea warm on it? Now I wanna see an extreme version of it which is designed to transfer the most heat from a PC to a teapot/other hot beverage warmer! Could even make it a challenge video, where you have two people make a teapot PC and then have to race to see which of them can brew a pot of tea the fastest (as in then having to play games targetted to generate as much heat as possible, and then have that heat moved the most efficiently to the teapot)
6:45 I just about died. Such a small comment from Linus, but hit hard.
15:07 Bazooka Plus = RPG Enhanced makes a lot of sense to me if you understand that an RPG is a Rocket Propelled Grenade...which is what a Bazooka is all about.
You mentioned the cheapest NAS setup using HBAs and extrusion. I actually had that- with 20 drives. Complete with fans and shock mounts. I broke it down for a drive shelf though. It was a master jerry rig. Not ideal- the number of SATA power extensions required was insane.
Some of these setups are insane. Wow!
More of these please, unconventional setups are always awesome to see
For anyone wondering, the Chinese Sakura gpu is from Yeston and it is available on Newegg.
Yeston GPUs are pretty cool tbh
yeah gn made a vid about it
You know what could make for a good video.... A challenge where different LTT members have to build PCs in other objects. Would love to see what the team comes up with.
Linus should do the light bar challenge. Was on the fence till I got one, love it!
Dat was very fun to watch. So many interesting setups. Budget or not, everything was interesting! Thanks to everyone who participated in this.
I might be wrong, but i think the one with the heat exchanger is a heat exchanger water heater, basically instead of heating water by pumping energy into it, you spend energy to transfer heat into it, getting better efficiency, which means you cool something, usually the outside air, and pump that heat in the water, i guess he must have put the cold part connected to his pc which is honestly ingenious.
I dig the incognito PC setups like the stove one especially because if you get burglarized, it's very likely the thieves won't take that because they just think it's a cheap stove xD
I really love the idea of you guys doing a series on building computers in random household objects like the camp stove.
The pc at 8:40 might need 90 degree fittings because the pipes come in a pre bent L shape. Since they are yellow chrome plated, you cannot bend them, because then you would destroy the finish.
Yeah this exactly
Was waiting this video for a while🎉 thanks Andy for providing the chance
Calling winnie-pooh right now. You are using CZcams illegally!!!!
@@xqawas hhh he is busy at fking the country up

For Jakes info. I found open frame computers to accumulate much less dust then any of the closed ones. I used to have to take my pc out and dust it every year. I haven't had to dust my current system in 5 years.
Almost square - I LIKE that design, have to look into it.
I've worked (and helped BUILD) actual square displays - for the military as plasma displays (we're talking early 1990s here, 512 x 512 TEMPEST qualified, and SAIT had 1024 x 1024 in the prototype stage at the time).
Keep in mind, VGA was still pretty new then and 640 x 350 wasn't uncommon in commercially sold displays (640 x 480 was starting to get popular but the price was still high for most users).
Not even 2 minutes into the video and I have a new found respect for you Linus. You may never see this comment but I just wanted you to know your actions of hiring the pirates so they can make it all official is incredibly amazing, you sir are truly honorable and I appreciate you
Edit: woah this comment started to blow up. I thank all of you for your efforts to make this more seen ♥️
yes, what the channel called, Linus, with Chinese ascent, that got to be worth a watch,?
They are technically pirates, but not really stealing videos for profits. People in China don't have access to CZcams, so some fans decided to put Chinese subtitles on these videos and share them on Bilibili so everyone could watch them. Glad Linus agreed to make them the official distributor. But they are always too slow to translate new vids, that's why I'm on CZcams.
@@yuxuanhuang3523 I would assume it should be faster now that they're officially hired to do the translation as opposed to doing in their spare time as a hobby
@@jasonchan5504 it would be a hell of a lot easier to translate correctly as well, as i am sure they would send over a transcript/script of the video along with the video file. Its a hell of a lot easier translating a text file than an audio file!
HIRE ALL PIRATES NOW! GO PIRATES
A different variety of jank with absurd amounts of waifu... Yeah, this will be interesting.
That's what the Chinese actually are into
so glad I found a video with more Andy
27:18 Man, this setup creates so many questions than it answers
Jake, the open concept PC may get more dusty, but you don’t have to open it up to hit it with a wipe or an air can. You can just leave an air can close by and give it a quick spray every few days
My build is a Thermaltake core P3 and it's surprisingly not dusty at all. It's been mounted on the wall for a year and a half and there's no dust in the radiator
Why didn't I think of that solution before. Great idea!
Yes, because Chinese players who use this open design think that using a hair dryer can easily clean the dust.
That’s awesome you hired them!
Honestly, it was a 200 IQ play. Put the ego aside and turn it into something that benefits both parties.
@@marcellkovacs5452 And if anything they weren't trying to steal the videos so to speak? they just wanted chinese fans to enjoy them, they weren't really gaining money. if they were Linus would have never hired em
The QD Connections on roast 14 are actually pretty good and came standard in the HydroCool line of mostly AIO cooling systems by Corsair in the early 2000's
Can't lie, the laundry detergent and stove PCs are masterpieces 😂
Honestly didn’t think it was possible to make a pc out of a laundry detergent absolute insanity
For those who don’t know, people live in mainland China can’t access youtube. That’s why there’s someone translating and pirating the videoes, because that’s perhaps the only way these videoes can reach most of the audience in mainland China. But I’m really glad that Linus haired them and offered them a proper job.❤
The correct statement is that it is not possible to access CZcams through the official network. It is okay for universities and IT-related personnel to use VPN. Of course, this is also a gray area of the law.
Ccp jail
Lmao they use vpns
linus is so epic for not taking down the videos on bilibili but instead actually hiring the people behind the channel
He would not be able to take the videos down even if he wanted to. A Chinese court would not side with a foreign company. I live in China copyright is only a thing for Chinese companies and products here.
@@jonastidelius4205 not true though. If LTT instead created their own official account and got verification of the platform, others wont be allowed to casually upload LTT content, like chubbyemu, ziikos, domnu's puzzle and so on
@@jonastidelius4205 跟平台要求下架就可以，这很常见，
@@jonastidelius4205 Thats not ture. Many japanese television station taking down the videos on bilibili
@@jonastidelius4205 Not true
I'm not sure if anyone has mentioned this, but from my experience working at a color post house we'd use the light bar on top the monitor but pointed away from the screen at the wall. The idea was to have a color accurate light as a reference while color grading since your eyes adjust to your lighting scenario. So the ideal set up is a 50% neutral grey with the light behind so you have that reference point. Still prefer no light bar but I understand the point (as long as it's pointed at the wall and not the screen.
It's funny to watch these setups, but it is sooo hilarious to watch you watching the setups. xD
This reminds me so much of a friends laptop. It was dying and the fans just couldn't keep it cool any more regardless of re-paste.
He engineered four massive CPU coolers for both GPU and CPU and built it into a stilt "oil rig" style setup. The PC was incredibly cool after that.
He also cut hole in the casing of the PS4 and mounted a massive desktop cooler to that too. Dead silent PS4. Love it.
Love the enthusiasm. And Jake your excitement to be there had me on the edge of my seat!
Also wow. Talented pll
I very much understand the Tesla GPU setup! At my work we have a bunch of computing clusters, including GPU ones. Some years ago we got a couple of those Tesla GPUs, but in the process of installing them it turned out that the computer case we had wasn't, uh, optimally shaped and we couldn't fit an internal fan in a position to provide enough airflow for the card to work long enough to boot the system and check if everything is working. What we ended up doing was, and I swear it's true, taking a vacuum cleaner and blowing (well, sucking) it directly over the GPU at full power, and it actually worked as a temporary solution to run the system checks. I haven't seen that rack since, but I'm assuming they got a more suitable case for it.
I have my Mainboard openly screwed to the wall above my desk for about 20 years now, and dust was never an issue - actually less then in my old cases that stood on to the ground
17:38 You need to get Linus to try out the light bar. If you know to angle it correctly it doesn't affect the screen at all. And the additional lighting help when using your PC in the dark as it reduces eye strain.
It's not stupid!
I love this. You guys seem to be having so much fun. Super laid back and entertaining
5:16
"Who needs a screen at this point?"
Ya know, I think using the side panel/glass of your PC case as a monitor might actually be kind of a cool idea? 2-in-1 combo.
All jokes aside, tissues are mandatory. Peens in the cupboard, I got glasses, I gotta blow my nose here and there, and I gotta have some kind of quick napkinesque thing readily available for assorted cleaning tasks.
