21:27 Conclusion
The 2 stacked chairs is just redundancy for backup in event 1st chair fails so you don't hit the floor.
RAID 1 chair
yeah it snaps in half and the pieces disintegrate like if it were in a video game
Been there....Done that. Checks out :)
I was thinking rigidity because those lawn chairs bend so much.
Its a chair of motivation
Linus: "We will roast you so hard you'll run upstairs to cry" The roast: "You sleep on the beanbag? That's not good for your back :("
I know this person and can say he sleeps just fine on the bag since 2 years. IF he sleeps 😅
gotta keep it friendly for advertisers
He’s Canadian;)
@Speed Junkie you kidding? that's fuckin brutal af for a canadian roast, bud. i'm a canadian.
@@Varaz can confirm...
at 20:00 they completely miss the fact there is a glock next to serious amounts of prescription meds

Normal day in USA.
OMG! That is madness! USA is a weird place.
@@litetaker It's just a Glock.
@@itsmarvin6999 Yeah thats just a real ass firearm, like just get over it

I like how they casually ignored the desk with a handgun and several prescription bottles
And the fact that that chair is about 2 feet too low for that desk
Only thing missing was a bottle of booze
as we all know, prescription medication and guns are an absolute dream team
Clearly plays only or mostly GTA.
When ?
I love how for setup 20, they just kindly ignore the glock and meds
And the random box of 7.62x54R in #12 lol
@@anothersiguy ooh i missed that! Good catch
I saw that too, I noticed them immediately.
"Car Enthusiast" had a few boxes of ammo, too. lol
Yep. I was like WHOA just gonna gloss over the Glock huh?

yooooo
damn, I wanted to say that... at least I found my fellow Germans. Hallo!
the custom cupboard+ carpet + his/hers setup also makes use of some pretty decent desktop speakers: the creative t20 series II. i can recommend them from personal experience (the older model without the powersaving feature)
That whole beauty versus comfortability conversation line of sad is so f***ing true. I was at a furniture store and found a reclining chair that was covered in a god-awful Realtree© camouflage. When I sat in it it felt like it was a cloud. It was only $200. I regret not buying it to this day
Yeah, should have not only bought it, but went with it to a handyman to make it look proper. Some things, unfortunately, are one of a kind
It's actually not comfortable as you think. (
When I received my grandad's sofa the first thing I did was changing the faux leather for a nicer, warmer fabric. Best decision ever.
It really is, I have a couch with an ugly blue and white grid pattern with red hearts in every other square. I don't know if I'd ever find another couch as comfortable.
@@OACT I'm slightly confused by this response. Were you the one that bought it? If so, I'll fight you for it
19:50 The wooden walls along with the handgun on the deskpad leads me to believe that this person lives in the wilderness, the whole setup is powered off an off the grid generator
Don't forget the copious pill jars.
And the Glock next to the pill jars
htf did I see the prescription bottles and not the handgun lmao! you prob right
their "chair" is also so freaking low from their desk. Gonna need some noodle arms to use the k&m
I just reached that part of the video and immediately came down to the comments to see if anyone else noticed the handgun.
Shoutout to setup #12 and the boxes of ammo. My dude _definitely_ owns a garbage rod.
Is it just me or the setup #20 guy has a glock on his desk
@@wilson3487 he does
you are correct, I do
“I’m somewhat of a car enthusiast” And I was sure Linus was gonna hit him with a “Yeah but it doesn’t mean your desk has to be one too”
15:43 this is the most mad max gaming pc setup I’ve ever seen. I actually impressed with the “make it work” effort applied to this. 👏
I almost thought it was a mining rig. But as Linus continued to analyze it, glad it wasn't!

Thats so stupid though and it explains everything in his stoner room. 🤣 PCI-Extension, 3 external fans from the botton (in addition to the 3 built-in fans!) and the heatsink & desk-fan is so ridiculous... 😂🤌🏻 All he needs to do is removing the plastic frame and cleaning the real heatsink of your graphics card and that entire construction becomes meaningless. 🤣🤌🏻 I highly doubt the 6 fans under the GPU do their job at all if the heatsink fins are that full of dust and dirt. 😅 Only reason it works is probably the desk-fan on the top. 😂
For the people with hardwood floors, you can get replacement chair wheels that are basically rollerblade wheels. They don't damage the floor and move so smoothly. They move better than regular wheels on carpet as well.
link?
WTH, here I am with setup number 5 at 5:09 with the floor protector on the hard wood floor and had no idea about this life hack! Thanks Nikko!
or just the rubber ikea ones
@@oanetje Soft wheels wont do it for my VERY heavy Herman Miller Mirra chair unfortunately that's in setup 5.
Caster wheels?
2:53 My dad has that exact same Pioneer stereo amp! He's has it since the 80's I think, he got it after the local community center upgraded because it kept tripping the overcurrent protection with the massive speakers they tried to drive with it. That's so cool
Those Razor orbweavers are actually incredible for productivity, I use one for photoshop and paint tool sai next to my cintique for all my shortcuts and its just perfect for that. Can't imagine using it for gaming though honestly.
10:15 Ah, a fellow German I see? Hopefully the audience of the Space Frogs becomes a little more international now.

Linus bout to do the "Why does Linus pirate Windows" video again.
Linus should offer some warranty for their shitty shop-items instead of roasting others, lol.
But the thing is, he's on a laptop, which he got for the sponsorship, which should have come with activated windows. what happened here?
@@Puzzlers100 Probably a fuck up on Lenovo's end.
@@Puzzlers100 Exactly
How is it piracy when window is distributed for free by Microsoft?
Kris Williams (setup 20) is playing Space Haven which I would maybe describe as "FTL where you build your own ship from scratch and the crew management has some RPG mechanics". The game is amazing.
@13:16 oooh the Razer Tartarus, I used that for a while playing MMOs and the bridge from console to PC gaming while learning the keys!
17:25 That's actually hilarious, cause when I moved into my new (old) house, I used a door and crates as my desk setup for about 8 months. I recently just upgraded to using logs from a dead tree as the legs, while maintaining the door as the table top. I have no regrets, and I will likely keep using it as long as possible!
I got an ikea table for $30. Should've looked for a door.
That reminds me that I used not to have a TV desk when I moved to my current home, so I used my TV box (packaging) as desk instead (the internal foam walls kept it firm), that was mounted on two boxes - PS VR packaging and empty box of a speaker setup. Looked weird, but it worked.
Just remember to treat the logs, you dont want to bring/attract termites into your home
is it a hollow door or solid wood?
@@PaperSparks I live in northern Ontario near a saw mill, and am surrounded by untreated wood… If there were termites, we’d see them long long ago :)
The game at 20:15 is Space Haven, its quite fun! Simplified Rimworld on a space ship. Early access though, it definitely needs a LOT more polish.
I thought so. Had to go look it up. And it's got a green check on Steam for the Steam Deck Compatibility. Installing it on the deck, even though it's been a long while since I last played.
I have been looking for 5 minuts to find this comment because I just had to know.

I love that even LTT channel sponsors refuse to give microsoft money to activate the machine Linus was using in this video
It's wasting money to activate it.
That’s a brand new laptop he probably did not took the time to activate it properly to his ms account
They did a video a year or two ago on why they don't bother activating Windows on most of the machines they show on screen. If I remember, the basic idea was that they're always changing out hardware and re-imaging drives, so it's not worth it to buy licenses for every short-term installation.
@@drewzero1 IIRC they do have enough purchased licenses for every computer, but it's too much of a hassle to re-activate them and migrate them around between setups, because if you migrate too often (by changing hardware) it doesn't re-activate by itself anymore and you have to call Microsoft.
Didn't even notice it becasue my watermark was blocking it :)
This should become a series!
I have the feeling that the phones in the first one could also be for makeshift full body tracking in vr. The quest allows for makeshift tracking, as long as you know what you're doing
19:11 "this is one of those pictures where we really do need the thousand words" is a beautiful sentence
The funniest part for me in this... Is that even though he's using a Laptop... Windows is not activated.

This is the BEST intro I have seen in one of your videos I love it 🤣
Someday i should post a pic of my desk setup. Though i need to do some cleaning up beforehand since its both been awhile and iv been though a few projects that have left a few boxes stacked ontop. Also my custom AV cabinet which can technically be setup with all my consoles/subwoofer/receiver
"That's the one thing you don't eff around with, cheap storage" honestly I'd say cheap PSU's go above that on the list for me
True but most of them work good enough in low power builds before they become a fire hazard and break your computer but with cheap storage you might be bringing your PC to a point where it's not worth using it.
@@tropicalfruit4571 lets agree on that both cheap isnt that great
@@tropicalfruit4571 Gigabyte would like to have a chat
Cheap psu’s are stuff you don’t cheap out on you can cheap out on gpu or cpu but not these
I think he was saying “that’s the one thing” (majorly wrong with the build)
Always impresses me how quickly Linus recognizes stuff... and not only computer or tech gadgets.
Cute name
White people are good at recognizing differences between people and things.
Did you notice the Activate Windows watermark on this video? This is me pointing that out, and now this is me judging Linus' PC. 🧑⚖⚖
@@Mr.Morden It's residual based-ness from using Linux for a month
@@Mr.Morden He's mentioned before that they have a ton of activation keys but can't always be bothered to use them because they tear down every non-permanent PC they build (like for guild guides and test benches) and the keys are often tied to the motherboard making it a waste.
i just love how there was just a sword siting on top of wall near the camera in setup 10
Lol the box of 7.62x54r. Also the rig with the pill bottles and a glock
6:29 Those older (mainly Canon branded) point and shoot cameras have the advantage over newer dedicated cameras in the ability to run CHDK / magic lantern, allowing them to run scripts to automate them, get manual control and raw photos if this isn't a built in feature and play a limited selection of games. I spent quite some time working on what at the time felt like a fairly customisable and versatile timelapse script - not only was I learning about photography, I was also programming as well :)
that's cool, photography and programming
@@upshift_actual PP nice
14:17 That’s not a printed meme, that’s an additional monitor. Or possibly a backlit photo frame. Looks like two cables dropping down from it though, so I’m still leaning toward another monitor. Either way, I like it.
I was actually a Razer's Orbweaver user (that gamepad), back in the day mechanical keyboards were quite expensive here in Brazil (they still are, the good one or those with better brands), but in that time, we didn't had good alternatives like chinese brands with good switches to import for example... so... this orbweaver was really like 30-40% of a mechanical keyboard price - I used to play World of Warcraf pretty hard, raiding almost all days of the week and I was still using a membrane keyboard back them... So it was a good alternative to buy this kind of gear, and after a good setup... it helped me a lot - it had better ergonomics... I could use more of my desk space while gaming, and thoses caps were pretty responsive. It felt like a waste of money after I bought a real (full) mechanical keyboard, and even more after I quit WoW... Even its ergonomics were pretty good, as I remember, It is still inside of its box until nowadays.
Linus is basically a Gordon Ramsay in kitchen nightmares when it comes to seeing other peoples setups.
he has windows not activated
@@aydish7889 so what
20:18 The game is called Space Haven. A cool mix of spaceship builder / combat / exploration sim. In early access currently
10:00 well i mean you literally said that for every other vr headset you saw in the other episodes
I love how they completely missed the gun right next to the prescription medication on setup twenty (20:00)
Yeah surprised linus and the crew let that one slip through
Hopefully the algorithm doesn't see it
13:10 Oh a Razer orbwaver I actually bought one a few years ago to see if it's good, and I'm still always using it, might feel wierd at the begining since it's really different from a keybord but I really like it and I know I'll go for something similar if it broke.
In setup 15, 15 minutes in when they were talking about the room with late 90's to early 2000's vibes that is the way my dad had his studio apartment, and it was the comfiest apartment I have ever been in. That is the vibe I want for my first apartment. I am not on drugs I promise.
19:37 let's just ignore that he has his glock right next to his meds XD
19:56 i love how you dont even mention how a phone charger cuts the usable mouse pad in half while theres a gun with presumably prescription pills next to it...
That glock was super obvious 🧐
And that means what exactly? What if I happen to have my blood pressure prescription bottle or my prescription allergy medicine sitting on a table and happen to set one of my guns down next to it. I get that your implication is that the person is either a drug dealer or mentally unstable but that just doesn't really track. For all you know that person is just physically sick and lives in a bad area. Or maybe they were just cleaning the gun beforehand. Or just wanted to stage the shot to show off their pistol which they are proud to have. The bottles being there means nothing and makes me think you are making a political statement that someone must meet some arbitrary standard of perfect health in order to own a gun

17:46 that actually sounds like an interesting video idea. You guys should do a free gaming setup video, where you get everything except probably the PC for free. So desk, chair, any other stuff.
You'd be surprised at what people can find. I lived in a medium-sized town, where people would just put their used furniture in the trash, and some things there that I took lasted years.

I use my Samsung tablet for reading. Don't like the smaller phone screen and laptop is too big.
I never liked a tablet but I won a tablet from a Deutsche Telekom
Samsung tablets with OLED screens, even the older ones, are great for reading comics or books with a lot of graphics. My old Samsung tablet have problems with KZhead videos, but reading experience is great.
There is another use, You can use it as a 'streamdeck' when you feel like it, or use it with game glass, for star citizen or other games it supports. There's quite a few uses. I also like having a tablet to watch youtube while i'm gaming on my 4k screen, it's less distracting.

7:53 Seriously though, what's wrong with wallet cases? I have used them for a decade now, and I love them, wouldn't want to be without them. They make it really safe for the display if you dlie it in and out of jacket pockets (like work or motorcycle jackets), at the small small price of having to flip it open to use it if you don't use a seethrough one.
Drop tile ceiling in basements mean you can fix any problem easily that comes up instead of cutting into a stucco/drywall finished ceiling. Also they have panels that are sound proofed which are pricey but nice and easy.
Haha I don't even remember submitting my setup (#21), glad you like it! With the nice weather playing outside really brings the Deck into its own. The game is Space Haven and it's pretty damn good. Yes it's on battery but only for the meme, normally I just use the charger.

@@n9s3nse10 you can actually get a pretty okay PC for 500$. Invest right and future proof three rhings: motherboard, PSU and CPU amd everything else is easily upgradable. Also if you're searching used markets, misspell some words like ryzen to ryzem and you'll unlock whole new ads
Free furniture also includes an unwanted bonus if you grab it from the side of the road since they are often wanting them taken away with the bed bugs. An acquaintance of mine got a big time infection because her neighbor brought in a bug infested easy chair from the side of the road. I suggest going to a Good Will or other charity for furniture instead of paying $600 to an exterminator.

My footrest came with a built-in subwoofer, it's pretty neat how it matches perfectly with the two stereo desk speakers it came with :P
I recommend the combination of intra-aural earphones and either a subwoofer to rest your feet on, or a proper footboard with tactile transducer. It's the next-best thing to using intra-aural earphones along with a full tactile chair and footrest. Intra-aural earphones (NOT to be confused with earbuds which are garbage) deliver loud bass all the way down to 30 or even 20 Hz, which no headphones can do. They also naturally attenuate outside noise, which is great for immersion. But though you can _hear_ the bass, you obviously can't _feel_ it in your body. So the combination of IA earphones and subwoofer allows you to feel the bass. Whether it's the _CRUMP_ of a grenade, the _BOOM_ of a 12-gauge shotgun, the feel of the berm at the edge of a racetrack...or just the ability to feel all low sounds and musical notes...it is a great improvement to immersion. P.S. For anyone who wants great all-around IA earphones, pick up the Klipsch S3m if you can find them new online. They're discontinued, but still a great model.
@@bricaaron3978 Why wouldn't headphones be able to reach 20 Hz? Speakers that go down there are kind of rare (though they exist, especially if they are active and reasonably sized), but headphones? Now... you can't feel the bass with headphones, that's true. But hear?
@@bricaaron3978 My priority at my PC desk is comfort, good headphones are cabled, which reduces my comfort level :) I appreciate your input though, I also live alone and my home is pretty well insulated for sound, so as long as I keep my windows closed, my neighbours wont hear a thing, not even subwoofer sounds.
@@kadajawi6567 *'Why wouldn't headphones be able to reach 20 Hz?"* It's pointless whether something can "reach" a frequency if the _amplitude_ isn't high enough to matter. Every speaker, or anything that contains a driver, has a frequency response graph, which shows the loudness at any given frequency. The reason that intra-aural earphones can produce LOUD bass (and sub-bass) is because they essentially create a miniature sub-woofer cabinet out of your ear canal. If you use IA earphones, you'll notice that there is no bass response until you push them in and get a _seal._ Then all of a sudden you get _loud, low bass._ Basically, the lower the frequency, the more acoustical power is required in order to hear it. So it takes far, far less power to hear 3,000 Hz than it does to hear 30 Hz at the same apparent volume. That's why subwoofers are so large. But by coupling the driver to your ear canal so that no air can escape, the air pressure from the little driver gets pushed directly to your eardrum---as if there were a little rod connecting the driver and eardrum that pushes and pulls.
@@QueenSaffryn *"...my neighbours wont hear a thing, not even subwoofer sounds."* Speakers aren't near as good for immersion, but yes---if you are fortunate enough to be able to run large subwoofers, you don't need IA earphones for loud, low bass!
First setup with that Hot plate. Nice👍
13:56 i think the keyboard in the middle is for typing and general things and the smaller keyboard at the left is for gaming
20:22 The game on that steam deck is Space Haven by BugByte Ltd. It's kinda like RimWorld in space and is in active development.
And is awesome!
you misspelled its name. its Space Heaven.
Thanks ^^
@@PcJunky More like Space Hovel with your ships. AMIRITE?!
Thanks for mentioning the game!
18:39 Mom look I'm on LTT! 🤣 There's no cool eye tracking stuff, I called it “parallax” just because I wanted a fancy name for “only creates the illusion when you view at a specific angle*”. On the left is an Acer Aspire One netbook (ancient stuff) and on the right is an Asus VivoTab Smart (Windows 8 tablet thingy) I usually place music players on the right screen (touch input works btw), and some unimportant dashboard stuff on the left due to the netbook's low frame rate. *Edit: It's actually called a "Forced Perspective" and has almost nothing to do with the actual parallax thing, but man that sounds so catchy...
Glad I found you. How did you mount the netbook? Is it sturdy enough?
@@John_C_J That was anything but sturdy 😆 I just leaned it on the wall and wedged some stuff below it
I'm not sure what you're referring to, but it sounds like trompe l'oeil. I believe that forced perspective only applies to specific practical effects used in photography/cinematography, but maybe that's what you are talking about.
Was expecting the background to move, in a still picture. Parallax scrolling, y'know.
Congratz on being on LTT John Chen ;) I was setup #5 at 5:09
13:56 ayeee I got that corsair mousepad comes with the pro bundle
Linus , I'm almost certain that the footrest in setup 4 is a Noblechair footrest. If the PU leather is as bad as the PU leather on their chairs , it'll split and come apart quicker than you'd imagine and also it's very expensive for what it is. On the plus side , it does have an adjustable tilt , but not height. EDIT : They do have a real leather footrest now , but again , very expensive and I hope the real leather one is decent.
I’m dying with the judgement of the comfort of a couch relative to how worn out it looks 😂. That is insanely accurate
I own an ugly brown couch and can sit on it forever without getting uncomfortable.
14:25 That custom dog themed comforter is the champion of this whole video.
#7, not just a fancy rig, but a fancy outdoor spider. Those aren't cobwebs the typical house spiders make. Here there be flies, and the spider likes them. ...but what are the flies eating? There's your mystery. (14 minutes later) Great vid! That was fun.
it looks like a decal, but hyper realistic. 7:17 look at the reflection at the bottom left of "where the panel should be"
Love the intro and love Alex as a co-host. Really funny video! Also, some of these setups are just WILD.
