Linus (S) went extra annoying for 2/3 of the vid. He managed to be sort of professional and asked some decent questions, but for the majority of the time he was putting on a performance for the LTT crowd.
I enjoyed it. Bit of a different way to do an interview.
I was very surprised that Linus (T) didn’t knew about arch btw. And even didn’t know about Linux ISO joke… Come on… Linus is really only looking at emails.
The only way to stay sane
Hardware
- AMD Ryzen Threadripper 9960X
- GIGABYTE TRX50 AERO D Motherboard
- Samsung SSD 9100 PRO 2TB SSD
- 64GB ECC RAM
- Noctua NH-U14S TR5-SP6 Cooler
- Intel Arc B580 GPU
- Fractal Design Torrent E-ATX Case
- Seasonic PRIME TX-1600 1600W 80+ Titanium PSU
OS
- Fedora
64GB of EEC RAM. Can’t remember the brand, but Linus T made a big deal about wanting EEC. (And rightly so for his usecase)
Kingston
looks at the specs
Yeah it makes sense they couldn’t afford to put any ram in
How much does that cost?
Its not about how much it costs. It about how much it saves…
- PewDiePie
Today or tomorrow?
So the video is just the two of them pulling out a 20 year-old ThinkStation and plugging in a flash drive?
Good luck building the kernel with that over and over
Haven’t watched the video yet, do they kiss passionately with tongue?
Looking at that still frame pic, that might just be incest.
yeah, although Linus admitted he is gay
Which one?
Yes.
I think I made it 5 minutes. Linus (S) can’t be professional to save his life.
You know the silly stuff at the start was actually Torvald’s idea, right?
Linus (Sebastian) spoke about how he didn’t even get the reference but Torvalds prompted him to go and watch Highlander (“there can only be one!!”)
You should’ve kept watching it. There’s some good stuff there.
I laughed so hard at the highlander reference. It might just be that you gotta know the specific meme and culture to enjoy it. Even YouTube Linus didn’t know the reference.
Seeing the two Linus’s pulling out katanas on each other was hilarious.
Different generations. They didn’t get each other’s cultural references.
You didn’t last long enough. Really good flowing interview after the initial over the top YouTube shenanigans
I thought it was one of the better LTT videos for sure. Torvalds is much better on camera than he claims to be and it was interesting to see his outlook on a broad range of questions.
Well… Not really. I watch it to the end. It still feels a bit off.
It was off, it’s LTT. It was intertainment with some interview.
Still, L.T. had fascinating things to say, and a refreshing down-to-earth outlook on things like data storage (keeps no files really, just uploads to git and lets others worry about whether it’s worth saving or not), a.i. (important, somewhat inevitable, overblown hype, horrible business practices), and how he geeks out playing with hardware designs for things that are completely out of his expertise so it’s low stress (e.g. guitar effect pedals but he doesn’t play).
That joke, about just uploading everything and letting others decide what’s worth saving, is one I first heard decades ago. Might still have been him who first made it.
That’s fair ltt is never going to be everyones flavour
Holy shit, never saw teeth that looked as fake as Linus T’s (apart from obvious gold bling crap).
Those are his braces that got stained by curry lol
Who cares
