i refuse to acknowledge a 100$ pin that shows animated gifs as "Handy"
GaudyMarrko its a jiff
Don't you mean jiff?
It don’t even work I’ll tell you that Rn
Who's jiff?
It said Handy, not cheap.
Linus: “A JIF”
Comment section: * starts war *
Pretty much. Though, it's a mild war, fought with toilet paper and pillows.
We don't hate each other, we just know we're right. ;)
But it is actually jif
No it's not.
Don'T start that war. We know it's gif. Relax. :D
Jif is a brand of crappy peanut butter, gif is a file format.
Those gif pins are gonna be in a mall bin for $5 in the near future.
Born Hero haha yes
Garbage tech
Before that happens, they'll have been done to death.
Born Hero *jif
wow
Appealing to kids, you mean. They're useful to nobody haha
Please revive this series. I haven't had a handy (tech) in so long.
I love Linus Media Jroup
Took me awhile to realize the joke
Pls explain
In the video linus pronounces the .gif file format "jiff" which is a controversial topic on the internet
Thx for replying. Who is it that started this .jiff thing? Linus Media Jroup?
7 min of good video - It's ok
1 mistake - OMG
The handheld game and gif pin aren't "handy" tech, they're quirky tech
The oregon trail is handy to me
He said JIF????
Hey just tell me, how do you pronounce Gin then? Gif is pronounced the same way.
Silveryjade like "gift" without the t you fucking troglodyte
If you're gonna be that loser that gets caught on the pronounciation of GIF with a hard G, you're also gonna have to start pronouncing JPEG like JFEG. Or are you gonna tell me Photographic is pronounced like Potographic?
TheMrMortensen lol butthurt mispronouncer
When you don't have the ability to create your own arguement so you resort to posting a link and calling people faggots instead, classy.
Please bring this series back.
What's a JIF? Is it like a GIF?
No, it's peanut butter.
No it is a short period of time... Like 'itl be done in a jiffy'
VB YTP GIF is pronounced Jif like the peanut butter brand. Even the creator of the GIF says jif
The creator is a jraphics programer, not a english major.
iKingRPG "Graphics Interchange Format"
It's Gif NOT Gif
its gif with a g
No it's pronounced Ligma
Fair enough, Ligma it is
Sadly had to dislike cuz of that... :(
Bashir Khankan jif*
Linus: We also got a sponsor!
Me: Have you recently made a video without a sponsor 😶
I was literally thinking "what happened to handy tech?" Just yesterday. Glad to see it back!
$30 fingerprint reader :O My high school dreams coming true
EposVox GG see who is here!
And why you youtubers get that ✔️ with name when you comment?
Arnav Arya that's a check mark, means that they've got more than 100k subbs
Bassam salim Oh thanks man you really stopped me from sctratching my head.😂
That's "email verification" and not like actual checkmark verification. That is a process that now required 100k subs and is there to help identify brands of the real name against impersonators.
EposVox Ohh and thanks for replying..
6:51 ok ok, I'm going to stop making jokes about Linus dropping things.
but how many takes did they shoot?
4:14 was a close one
Wow that's like the opposite of dropping something
Its gif not gif
It's it's not its
what is doing here
internet explorer Ahhh. I remembered when you were a slow and old program that people used to use but now regret using.
StraightupGamer no it isn’t
G in GIF stands for graphics so no I'm pronouncing it like graphics no jraphics
This is one of my favorite series in the channel
"jif" *triggers*
That’s the way it’s pronounced not “gif” that’s the way it’s pronounced
@@j0hnnykarat3games no
@@keineahnung1919 yes
@@keineahnung1919 your wrong
@@j0hnnykarat3games nobody says jif. If we would go with the developers we also wouldn't say PNG but ping
Every time he says "jif", a piece of me dies
baderellik b
Everytime i see a comment like this. I just want to kill myself.
Maker of GIF said it's jif, it's a soft G like in the word General .. General... Gif.. Jif...
howtoreallypronouncegif.com
From teh internetz: I always pronounce it "G.I.F.", all spelled out, and I pronounce JPEG/JPG as "J.P.G.". It makes sense to me, since we don't call the IRS "errs", and we don't call the United States of America "oosa".
Jrafics Interchange Format!
leviathan that's Jreat! Would make a jreat jift!
leviathan wrong nigga
Get, girth, gill, gimmick, gigabyte, giggle, give, gimp, gig,gecko, geezer, gull ect. There are also countless inventions that the creator pronounced differently than normal people, like the Nobel Peace prize. Why should we make exceptions for proper grammar because the creator is mentally impaired and thinks JIF *gags* sounds better than GIF. Simply put the creator was a tard for not calling it JIF and choosing GIF which can have 2 correct pronunciations and cause comment wars. I wasted 3 minutes typing this
Do you do that with all your acronyms? because I am sure LASER and NASA would sound awesome as lah-sir and neigh-sa
leviathan the creator of the gif format isn't a linguist, is he?
Counter: scuba
That volta cable is so cool. It helps me so much with my smartphone stand.
Makes it look way cooler and it doesn't take 15 seconds to plug my phone in. Can only recommend.
what is a jiff?
A brand of peanut butter.
A brand of mayonaise
It can also be pronounced as a soft G
Ganjalf Der Grüne a soap brand
Accidental Gamers Nexus sponsorship.
Tech Jesus would be proud :)
Emma Watson Bots don't have pussies you silly.

The Oregon Trail one is so much fun. Even 10 year old loved it.
I appreciated your transparency as regards advertisements. Thank you. Keep up the good work.
Gif not jif. Do you say Jraphics too?
Beam digital button seems really good, but that battery life though.. Now if they also made an e-ink version of it... now that could be worth it and i am sure the battery can last for ages!
I'm only 18 but I remember playing Oregon Trail in elementary school. I'll never forget the iMacs in the computer lab had the rainbow Apple logo in the status bar when I was young, later they got new ones. I feel old now.
Magnetic chargers would be dope imbedded in a Smartphone!
You get those cables for under a dollar on aliexpress. I use mine for over a year now and its awesome. Including fast charging and a status led ^^
Valfaun, thank you for this information.
6:48 that catch was amazing
Tarek Al-Shawwa no it was easy
The throw was amazing catching was easy
It also took 40 takes to get it. The odds say he has to catch something god knows he drops enough. :P
120$ for a meme, which isn't even that funny
94$ if you buy the white version
Music for Meditation it I funny if you show Linus screening in 56k gif
Sebastián Hernández xD. 134 IF it is The black gay transgender version
It isn't funny at all, that thing was just a cheap excuse to say "jif" multiple times and infuriate 99% of internet users.
White Savings!
Hey Linus, do you make a lot of jgraphics for LTT?
he's saying it properly
No he is not. The creator of the GIF standard can't just determine how English works besides Linus is probably just trolling.
Let me ask you one thing DigitaldumpGamer: Do you belive in magic?
No
TheDigitaldumpGamer but it's a name so you can choose how you say it when you make it up. It's not English, it's a name
dat GN shirt though
it looks like the Ali-A logo
JN shirt*
IT'S GIF
Tequila59 true, that's is how it's spelled
Tequila59 jif ftw
I know it sounds wrong the way he says it but hes right
It's gif.
It's not right. In fact it violates every rules about acronyms in the English language. it doesn't matter how the creator wants it pronounced, once it goes public it falls under linguistics and the general population.
Moreover, you wouldn't say jift or video james.
Bring back Handy tech!!
How do you even roll out so much content so frequently? I love it!
These are the kind of videos I like :) the fingerprint reader is amazing !!
That first one wasn't very handy
But it is pretty cool!
It seems that 'Handy Tech Under $100' has been discontinued seeing as the latest video is from July 2018. A shame 'cause I just found out about the segment and binged all the episodes only to be saddened at this episode 'cause it was the last one :(
The blooper bit was fantastic! Please do more of that. Or just make a whole blooper series. =)
I have a pond collective pin, and besides the syncing issues and the screen being a bit dim. It’s really nice
LMAO magsafe is back
WTF is a Jif?
HypnoChode the creator pronounce it like that.
Saad Kashif Yeah, the creator is super stupid, the "g" stands for "graphic".
Lieutenant Petaa he is the OWNER of the word. He has the full right how to pronounce it. Btw. It's used as a soft G. Like General. Gym . Germ etc. He is not stupid in English.
He's actually a genius, there's no defined way to pronounce acronyms--it's up to the creators.
It's a GIF, pronounced incorrectly.
This is my fav channel at the moment. Love the dumb jokes.
"It sure isn't cooling" made my day ! :D
JIF makes peanut butter. GIFs are small pictures or "graphics"
Just saying 😂
Kurt Lamprecht WRONG
It is actually pronounced Jif. The creator announced that recently ^-^
Looking for this :v
He's wrong, though. GIF stands for Graphics Interchange Format. It's a hard G.
Nikola Janković Except acronyms don't always adopt the pronunciation of the words they're adopted from, and the creator of the image format already said its intended to be pronounced with a soft g.
I really thought that GIF magnet was going to somehow be a BEME ripoff with the way it was said, hahaha
Good job with the transparency at the end! do it like this in the future.
Always love this series.
Jiff?! Linus, say it ain’t so!
You’re breaking my heart!
So linus prononuces it as Jif?
Unsubscribed.
ahahaha :)
Why??????? So what it's also pronounced as *J-IF*
Andrew Puzyrev you Stfu the creator him self pronounce it as a J-IF
Its the Canadian British Pronunciation. LOL.
Be well citizen Kashif. Have a Joy Joy Day!
Volta cables, the same with lightning+microusb+usbc endings on aliexpress for ca 7$. Working beautifully.
Got the 2€ chinese no-name magnetic cables around probably 2 years ago by now, still using them, definitely neat.
It's pronounced gif not gif
You're all wrong. It's pronounced squanch.
Actually it's GIF, not gif or gif.
I'm quite sure its Gif, not GIF nor gif or gif but Gif ... jeez ....
WakaFlaka Flakes idot
Oh SHUT THE FUCK UP!
Linus. It's pronounced *gif*
Pyry 1 Which is what he said. Like giraffes. Giant gymnastic giraffes. You get the gist of it ;)
GUIF not jif fucking bunch of nerds. You look stupid when you pronounce it jif. Nobody cares except you grammar nazi geeks. Yuck
the g stands for graphic duh
Photonic Pizza the "G" doesn't stand for giraffe, it's stands for graphics
@Photonic Pizza Except that "graphics" is said with a hard G, unlike the other words you listed. Why don't you Joogle it?
"...for iMac Pros, that aren't broken.."
Good job James :D
Why has there not been a Handy Tech in a while?
It's fun to see Gamers Nexus merch and modmat on your channel :P
finally another one of these
6:51 that catch was smooth af and i refuse to believe that they got it first try, i would very much like to see the failed attempts.
I want the Oregon Trail thing right now!
I use an abacus to access the internet.
Nice GN shirt
That Windows 10 hello sensor was really cool. I actually want one lol.
i loved the things being thrown at Linus, i don’t think he was expecting them!
A Jiff for your shirt?? Like the peanut butter??
Ohh you meant a GIF
Jif peanut butter
Huhuhu those digs at Apple heal my soul
I've bought the exact fingerprint reader a year ago for my Surface 3 😄
GIF not JIF *runs and hides*
mwalsher Jraphics Interchange Format
UselessDood not how acronyms work...
sirswish4 Yes, it is. Unless there's a specific reason to change the pronunciation from the extended form, which there isn't for GIF.
Hey, just tell me, how do you pronounce Gin then? Gif is pronounced the same way.
IQ -200
WE WANT DENNIS WE WANT DENNIS WE WANT DENNIS
Thechannel you only liao once
5:36 "... and iMac Pros (that aren't broken)." HAHAHAHAHA!!! That one made me laugh!
I wonder if Apple will ever fix their iMac Pro, anyway...
Oregon Trail... I never failed an expedition... I could if I tried to fail... but it was always easy to pick the proper time to leave and be able to ford the rivers and raft across at the appropriate time... Very easy game.
I was not sure what these "YIFF"s are (i thought a special format for the smart pin).. but after googling it im pretty sure that i should not have googled it...
I’m pretty sure you should have ;)
Uh oh
Yes Linus.
Jraphics Interchange Format.
4:17 AFTER AGES
I Was waiting for you to COVER this for AGES
BOTH OF THIS
THANKS
As a man with a button wall, this is a must have...
Jif?? unsubbed.
Theo McPherson why?????
Theo McPherson literally spelled gif, with a g so people should pronounce it like it's spelled
Theo McPherson yea ffs lol
I'm gonna say 'jif' just to annoy the people who can't stop giving a fuck.
Matthew Alexander the creator pronounce it as *J-IF
sooooo.
does this new volta cable still just pull out under its own weight ?
I've had mine for about a year and it's never done that.
I've had magnetic cables from a different brand and it never had problems with its magnetic force. However, the main problem is that there is always a small pin sticking out from the phone. Also, the cables often break even if they are nylon coated.
You get those cables for under a dollar on aliexpress. I use mine for over a year now and its awesome. Including fast charging and a status led ^^
And no mine does not pull out on its own and its compatible with most cases ^^
haha the constant shots at apple
That Oregon trail game is 24.99 at at Target. For anyone interested.
It's pronounced gif.
Giraffe, gym, general
Elias Pinero no... Gerold, garage, George, golf.
It's Graphics Interchange Format.
NOT Jraphics Interchange Format.
mcopyright It's an acronym. An acronym is pronounced like a word on its own. See NASA, SCUBA, HAZMAT, and many, many others. And giant genius gymnastic giraffes tell you to shut up.
UPE MODAFOCA UPPPPPPP
Right its not that hard. Dumbasses trying to rationalize it.
Girrafics Interchange Format
He decided it's pronounced yiff. I personally prefer the holy war that's going on.
So I’ve been deciding whether to build a pc for college (for graphics intense stuff/maybe some gaming)and get a cheap laptop to carry around to class, or just buy a high performance laptop for everything. That said
1) is it actually smarter/more cost effective to build a pc to keep in my dorm?
And
2) would a good laptop with and external gpu be a better idea than building a pc?
I like that magnet snap on thingy. I just wish i could use it on my pixle 2 but I like to use my port for headphones as well :(
Such a long Ad 0:00-7:24 😜
Rahul129K gn would be proud
lmao
Too be fair, Volta stuff is great and the same price as a regular cable.
GIF NOT JIF
Simon Cools graphic interface, ok that makes sense... But how do you pronounce the word general... Sounds like a J right? Plus the maker of GIFs said it's pronounced jif so youre kinda wrong bud
Thank you for saying GIF correctly!
Keep the Apple digs coming!
Every time you said jif i had heart burn.
C'mon Linus, let's be honest, a more suiting title would be "New Vulta cables + some filler crap"...
My elementary school in the 80's had Apple IIc's, that built in keyboard, green screen goodness 😷
I just love how Linus-es love for Apple products went from OK to ah... rotten Apples again...
Cif not Jif
triggered
Марин Колев it's jif peanut butter.
Jeff not Geoff
no it's pronounced üff
As someone whose initials are actually GIF, I agree that it certainly is *not* "JIF".
Jareth Fairclough, signing off.
Here for ALL questions! =D
What is that "use one phone to charge another" feature?? How does that work?
Are you aware of the risks of ligma?
Are you alive?
Victor Barcelo It's just reverse charging. USB OTG allows you to use your phones battery to charge or be charged. You can use your phone to charge, say, your bluetooth headphones.
How long did it take to develop?
Thank you for saying “Gif” correctly!
hi Linus - magnetic cables are worth what you can to by. One of the reason if you will put cable in your tool box it will grab all metal dust and you have no chance to clear it.
DID HE JUST SAY JIF???? JIF????????? IT'S GIF FOR GOD'S SAKE!!!
Unlike you and everyone else complaining about this exact same thing, he took the time to find out how to pronounce it. And even though I like GIF better than JIF too, the guy that invented .gif back in the day says its pronounced jif, that is why he says it like that!
well the creator is wrong.
Also the rules of the English language suggest it should be "Jiff". To be pronounced with a hard G it should need a double F at the end.
Or should we start pronouncing gel "Gell"?

OMG that pin would be perfect for a Dr. Who cosplay
