I love Yvonne. Shes so wonderfully patient and loving towards Linus' shenanigans. And shes feeling more and more comfortable on camera. WE LOVE YOU YVONNE!!!!!!
@Chris723 DId you know that linus actually makes a fund with percentages of earnings for every video his children shows up in. Apparently that fund will go to them when they come of age
@turureta ventanera I’m pretty sure he’s said some of their names before Edit: actually nvm i looked it up and you’re right Yeah keeping it private is ofc a good thing
It's how I feel near my father, knowing how much he's cut himself by accident doing something silly when he could be using safer tools to do that job....
Carpenters: Measure twice, cut once. Engineers: Find every failure mode and eliminate them, then consider that you too are a failure mode and ask someone else. Linus: It'll be fine!!!
@Jakub Lulek - I actually did that once. I twice measured a window pane that had been broken, went to buy some plexiglass, points, and glazing compound to replace it. And somehow managed to cut it 4-6" too short on BOTH sides.
Dan is amazing, he pairs so perfect with Linus. His reaction to Linus clearly not having thought about audio channels is amazing 😂😂 With all the new hire's I think LTT might be big enough for a dedicated "meet the crew of '22" video in a few months the dent in the fridge at 14:04 is driving me crazy. nice clean crisp reflection them BAM! HERE I AM not to be confused with the... other fridge at 19:27 also, please unwrap the nice stainless steel in the mechanical room at some point. as someone who makes things with laser guard on them, it's so disappointing when someone leaves it on. and you can 3d print housings for those thermostat PCB's pretty easily. your trades will love you for it. you can tell they put some work in on that system
The tablet holder in the theater room is pretty useful, especially with LInus' goals for automating the whole place. You can set up a Home Assistant dashboard for the tablet that has theater room device controls, scene triggers, etc.
I've always wondered about that, how often does someone switch scenes that you need a dedicated device to do so? Like at most its just, on/off and dim.
Ideally in a high end system like that you'd be using a full integration system such as Control4, though I don't think Linus and co are going for anything nearly that techy
It’s comforting and at the same time frustrating to see the amount of METICULOUS planning that absolutely went into this house, and they start setting things up for the first time and it’s like “ok yep, that’s wrong, that’s wrong, this is wrong, idk WHAT happened here, that’s wrong, that’s wrong.”
My family has their construction company and their could be multiple causes for that. Either the way it was asked was not specific enough "we need power to connect powered couches in the center of the room" vs "we need 3 sets of outlets centered in the room on the floor at this and this distance covered by a trap that hides it if needed". OR it could've been well established but the construction company had some issues with time since when you're giving your price to the client, you anticipate costs and if you break something / need to redo something on the way, it can skew the real time / cost of the project but the customer might not be ready to front up more money for that, so you're left to cut corners.
@Jakub Lulek that isnt how employment works. It gets done because he has a channel this can be content for and is the type of guy to actually help and care about his employees.
Massively successful tech-tuber with years of understanding and commenting on high tech items and corporate shenanigans gets his brain melted by the prospect of building up a couch.
15:35 phasing occurs with correlated sounds (the more of the same sound, the more phasy it can get), so basically running in stereo does not increase, but may decrease phasing a bit. Also, having stereo summed acoustically in a room might sound better than having it summed electronically (you can get at least some stereo separation in the space versus not having it at all)
23:37 I don't know if it's standard, but that is actually how every set of bunk beds I've slept in was connected. My sisters had a different set up, but lower bunk was a larger bed, so the frame was set up differently. Me and my brother have used something like four different bunk beds with this exact same set up.
I had that exact Ugreen charger, and whenever I plugged in a new device, or unplugged another, evething connected would stop charging, and I'd have to plug them all in again, so I ended up returning it. Sucks cause would've been great for the price I got it at. Ugreen has some decent stuff, but a lot of misses too tbh. I've stuck with Ravpower and Anker, both have served me well.
I’d recommend a sanus 4d tilt tv mount for the G1. Unlike the frame tv, you’ll have more availability pushing it back against the wall without having a OneConnect box
After every thing you guys have gone through. Do you have any regrets? or wish you did something different then how you wound up doing it? Also, do you think it would have been easier/better if you had just built a house from scratch?
Last time I moved, I moved myself with my truck (sport trac, so 4 doors) and the first run, with all my important stuff, was in the middle of a rain storm. All my computers and equipment fit in the cab of my truck, but the boxes in the back didn't exactly stay dry. This was compounded by the fact that the people moving in my old place (the now ex-wife of my landlord) felt the need to move into the garage a day early....taking away my dry place to load up.
My childhood channel. Always coming back to it. Unfortunately due to this phase of worklife its hard to keep myself updated about this channel but love to see it growing every day. Hope to see it here when I buy my kid his or her first PC
Yvonne: Its a loveseat right so it's a loveseat and an extra seat Linus: So it's a couch? Aprox. 5 minutes later Linus: So we've figured out what a loveseat right is, it's a loveseat with an extra seat. So is there another channel where Yvonne does all of the tech tips first and Linus just repeats them later?
Do these people just read the comments and not watch the video or something? They literally build the fricken thing and then mess with it a lot and people are still wondering what it looks like?
I was worried that Jake wouldn't be in the video about moving into his new house Linus is paying for, but he showed up just for the sponsor read. Looks like the house could use another month with contractors.
@3nertia I meant it in a relative sense. He has a house with windows, he must be loaded compared to most people I know. PS: The difference between a billion and a million is a billion. ;)
@3nertia Based on where they live, hence the living. Everything follows the cost of living index. It's around 21ish Canadian rubles where they are it looks like.
@SpartanArmy117 "Try not to discount other people's accomplishments" - when you show me people who (under capitalism) don't have to exploit others to do as well as Linus, then I wont :) His sponsors providing all the equipment he would otherwise have to work his ass off for (like the rest of us) saves him the money to do ridiculous shit like this. He's not motivated to do this out of the goodness of his heart which brings me to my next point. "It's not easy, if it was you'd have a channel..." - or, get this, some of us have morals and integrity and do not wish to exploit others for our own personal gain; I know, shocker ... Let me know when you come up with an idea for potentially growing a revolutionary energy source that would take us beyond glorified steampower! Using CRISPR to modify the DNA of a specific fungus from Fraser Island, Australia along with glass sea sponge DNA to grow essentially ultra-efficient "solar" (they could harness far more of the spectrum than just UV) panels. Only to be stifled by capitalism because I literally cannot make enough money fast enough to provide for my [human] needs and also get out of poverty lmfao Did Linus "create" the content or did he just get in front of a camera, act like a jackass, and let his "team" do the rest? Hmm ...
@Amy A Yeah probably because he had that first shot at it to see it was not as bad as he thought, and also the fact that this is way more chilling with Linus might help
Yvonne talking about the bunk beds and how they "just rest on here" and "aren't that secure" - - - Sigh.. yes, I'm pretty sure that was my exact thought process every single time I've dealt with kids' bunk beds.
Can't express how much we are thankfull you are sharing all this! We know it's content! But you could just not do it! We don't mind the blurry stuff, just keep sharing! Thank you!
I just wanna say thank you for posting that house video a while back that showed HomeAssistant with a GUI. I had tried it when it was still CLI, and ended up going back to the previous controller system (Universal Devices ISY = suckage). I'm running HA with all manner of Insteon, Z-Wave, Lutron, Hue, and other crap absolutely seamlessly, and love it. MASSIVE thanks for the tip!
@Iulian Hutan Not it's not. In Canada common law just says you have to give a "reasonable" amount of notice, but "reasonable" is not defined, so there's no hard rule, and no requirement of notice has been codified in Canadian statutes. In the US there is absolutely nothing that requires an employee to give notice before he or she quits a job.
@psychorabbitt He's been with them long enough that Linus would probably have tossed him the 5 grand out of his own pocket if Taran just asked. But that way, there wouldn't be a video.
@Chris723 Failing to see how that has anything to do with what I said. Taran announced last week that he'd left LMG. The tech upgrade video was released three weeks ago. That means, as I said - he got his pile of free shit on Intel's dime, THEN quit.
@Chris723 Yes, but there is a notice period between an employee announcing his leave and the actual last day of work. I don't know the specific laws in Canada, but here in Germany that period is at least three months. So they probably knew he would leave and let him jump the queue.
Same as the bunks I got for my kids, I was also surprised that nothing actually holds them together. They are likely designed to be used either separately or one above the other which is cool but also scary if the kids get a bit silly with them.
Love watching this. Makes me think at this rate, lot's of us are gonna want smart houses so these types of houses will start getting built more. Cant wait to see the finished product!
We had beds when I was a kid here in Denmark that used the same principle using a peg (from wood) to connect when stacked. We're talking early-to-mid 1970s. At this time I'd say it is a proven design. Or no one came up with something better.
My roommate in college had a 65" DLP TV, which for '09 was giant. We set up two couches in a theater style, and you would be surprised how much you have to lift up a back row in order to see over the front. I loved my giant lifted couch in the corner of our apartment. Was the best space to sit and watch everyone enjoying themselves at a party.
Linus, this is IMPORTANT!! In your server/utility room, you have combo AC/heater... There is a bit of pvc that goes up.. it's capped. You need to uncap that. It prevents any kind of vacuum. It allows water and condensation to actually move.. that's what that drain is for. It also tells you if the drain is clogged because it will overflow without the cap. The drain should never be under a self vacuum. You NEED THIS KNOWLEDGE. Goto @17:50 in the vid, and you'll understand. This is serious. Love the new home btw
The tablet holder might be good if your streaming content from your phone to the display… or if you use it to control things in the room like lighting, speaker volume and things like that. That’s really about all I can think of for it’s use… unless you plan to spend all that money on a theatre room only to watch content on a tablet well sitting in the room
Interesting theater room. Glad you finally see your dream house taking form. *Linus be like after everything's done* -"ARISE, MY GLORIOUS CREATION!!" Edit: I'm 21 years rn so when I'll make MY dream house, I might fill it with Cat8 cables cus' 40Gbps will be a standard by then.
Oh I have those seats in my theatre room.. they are amazing!! You'll love that they our powered once you start using them. And is that Peppercorn grey on the walls? Because then it is basically identical to my room haha. I love home theaters!
23:15 - Bunk beds. I assembly these kinds of things on the regular and that's how it's done, and how it's been done since at least the 70's. Once you get the slats and mattress on the upper bunk, it's not coming off, not with those pins.
I'm cracking up at Yvonne being so concerned when their son is in the box and they go to tip it over. Moms are always so concerned the kids are going to break when in reality kids are basically mini Terminators
I hope after you're all finished renos and moved in we have a video going over everything, I'd love to show my dad who used to build houses how much technology is involved in a smart home to blow his mind.
Loved the video Linus, I actually enjoy the Vlogs more than the normal videos, lol. I'm confused though to why you have to blur out the trees in the background. Are people so crazy they can say "OMG! I know the shape of that tree!"?
