Linus Gabriel Sebastian & Linus Media Group / Linus Tech Tips - Narcissistic corporate shill YouTuber driving his media empire into the ground. KILL COUNT: 2

Linus did a video on a prepper pc build

Not a whole lot of time dedicated to the build. Most of it about finding a spot on his property to bury it and feed the outputs to his basement.

Also they used steam. Like why not GOG? I know GOG doesn't have a ton of demanding games in its library. But if shit ever did hit the fan, Steam's servers would go down and anyone's library on there would be null and void.

IMHO, a 2-in-1 laptop with a 55/6600u would probably be best. But that's if you're on the move. I guess hunkering down, this is a good setup.

Why have the desktop underground but not where you or the system is?

This input doesn't have a filter, you'd get more than just dust, you'd get bugs and dirt.
power also isn't put back through the pipe so Linus can't run that display or literally anything in his basement.

If you wanted to do something like this, do it right and mount it on a server rack in your basement and set up solar outside to be fed into it.

Yeah, if I was gonna make a prepper laptop I'd get a Panasonic Toughbook 55 with 2 of it's slots filled with batteries with as much storage for game roms doss and tv movies books and audiobooks.

I don't understand what's happening here? Don't have a Wiha? The bit holder end won't fit?

The fat handle makes it hard to reach in and turn the screwdriver as the gap is very narrow between the heatsink and the case. I should've clarified on the Wiha, I'm specifically talking about a screwdriver that @Slav Power shilled many pages ago called the Xiaomi 24 in 1 precision screwdriver set. It's made by Wiha for working on electronics (its largest PH bit being PH2) and the handle is narrow so it is well suited to this.

You buy the exact same TTI one or found a different branded one? I have a few tti things in the kit I'm curious if it's branded as something else people froth over elsewhere ... like Husky/US General & Trojan

Bought the exact same TTI-branded one from the store you linked. Never heard of that store before but there happened to be one within driving distance so figured I'd check it out.

I wonder if anyones mentioned it being glass fibre reinforced or not? The best bit holders are high density rubber not a plastic.

It certainly doesn't look glass fiber reinforced but I don't think any AvE-like spergs have scratched it yet. The shape of it is not well adapted to handling a drop as the weight of the bit is pressing on a thin piece of plastic that isn't supported by anything. Compare its bit holder to that of the TTI's and it's pretty apparent that the LTT guys have no clue.

From the Project Farm review and their own waffling on I'd be willing to bet all they did was tighten the tolerances on the ratchet and change the shape of the handle. One could end up being a detriment in the long term, and the other is subjective as hell. I've got no issue with the "funny shaped handle" of Wera screwdrivers for example.

Ah yeah that’s why I like the Gearwrench you can swap out & use longer extensions if need be. Gets your hand up out of the way. Precision drivers are far more suited to this yes. Why he didn’t make a decent ratchet precision driver set I’ll never know.

Is it worth joining the Ratchet Screwdriver Master Race? I can see how one of those would be handy to keep in the car in case of emergencies, especially as it'd take up way less space than a full screwdriver set.

Tell me you never listen to commercial radio without telling me you never listen to commercial radio. The "Total Chools" voiceover guy is the new Frank Walker IMHO.

Meanwhile all the non-Ausfags are scratching their heads wondering wtf I'm on about.
