LTT Builds Linus Torvald's New Computer

His last one was built by Wendell of Level1Techs, I'd rather have seen him go that way again instead of LTT, Wendell does much better hardware videos. They interviewed him while building it, I didn't watch the whole thing, the video has chapters so I skipped around to some of the more interesting questions they asked. I'm not used to seeing him without glasses on. He went with Fedora again, I saw a clip from about 2012 when he was before an audience and someone asked him which distro he uses and it was Fedora back then. And I now know he doesn't know the Arch meme, BTW :)

Yeah, I don't watch that silly twit. This is painful (I had to jump through it too, it's mostly bollocks). His simpering is disgraceful.

Whenever Linus Torvalds starts talking about something interesting to me, those guys divert him. It was less about Linux, less about building the computer and more about asking him a bunch of stupid questions for their ratings.

He's a good sport though, to subject himself to that :-)
