Linus finally watching Blade Runner 2049 is wild despite the channel uses the movie as a way to demo high end tvs.

Anyway, I too finally watched both Blade Runner movies when the Regal had $8 tickets. I liked the environments of the original, but the sequel had a lot more emotional impact. It's also hilarious that it doesn't answer the biggest question that nerds 45 years on are still debating.

Channel spends months talking about Intel Arc cards and Linux, someone asks if they could talk about using both together… Linus: that’s dumb

20:15 statement "you can't have two zippered pockets right on top of each other like that - that's not how that works"

My absolute favorite rain jacket was the Canada Goose Coastal Shell. This jacket included a front pocket with a hidden zippered pocket behind it, but then on the inside of the jacket was a third hidden zippered pocket behind those two pockets.

So actually, yes, you can.

👋 If Linus refuses to use Reddit any longer, why is he still a moderator of the sub?

Are you supposed to remove someone as a moderator because they don't use reddit?

u/daxtonanderson 4d ago

Yes, moderators are meant to be active unless it's an alt account. Hence why subreddits with inactive moderators get taken down.

When all the mods are inactive they get taken down. One doesn't do anything.

Why is it down? Can’t access the vod

Feel like instead of making a meme leather jacket they should've made a nice one.

$500 is a fine enough price for a leather jacket but it's too much for a meme product.

I built it

There are 134 clips up so far. It’s still a work in progress. I’m improving detection and working through the archive, so plenty may be missing.

You can watch and rate the clips. If you remember a ding we’ve missed, an episode link and timestamp would be hugely helpful. Feedback on awkward clip boundaries is welcome too.

linus really went on a 20 minute tangent about his new garage door opener and somehow made it the most compelling segment of the night

Mods please add r/botbouncer to this sub. It will cut down on these obvious LLM generated comments. This account was a marked bot 3 months ago https://www.reddit.com/r/BotBouncer/s/kQlJvG5gJB

At the same time update the automod. It doesn't seem like a trial at this point.
