Building the PERFECT Linux PC with Linus Torvalds

Linus Torvalds was recently on Linux Tech Tips to build a new computer and he insisted on ECC RAM. Torvalds was convinced that memory errors are a much greater problem for stability than otherwise posted and he's spent an inordinate amount of time chasing phantom bugs because of it. [VIDEO]

There are so many CEOs, tech experts, financial analysts and famous investors who say we are in an AI bubble - even AI-invested companies say that about themselves. My latest favorite "We are in an AI bubble" comment comes from Linus Torvalds himself in the video with Linus from Linus Tech Tipps [0] [0]: [VIDEO]

> and that’s when the Fex compatibility layer was started, because we knew there was close to a decade of work needed before it would be robust enough people could rely on it for their libraries. In a recent Linus Tech Tips video, Linus Torvalds (original Linus) was asked, "if you could go back in time and start the Linux project from scratch, what would you do differently?" He had two answers, one was "nothing," and the other was "if I knew how much work this was going to take, I never would have started this project." It makes me wonder, is there some kind of blissful ignorance required to kick off a project that will take you years to see through? How many times have I self limited myself, stopped myself from starting something, because I put on my lead hat and did some estimations and thought eh, not worth it? [VIDEO]

Linus Torvalds currently uses Fedora with GNOME, which was fun to learn because that's also been my personal choice for a while now. (source: [VIDEO] )

yeah im just not that impressed with him to put up with that. same with rms. they only act like that because of the pedastal people have put them on. watch how far one lines tries to get his tongue up the other linuses backside. [VIDEO] seeing people give linus the credit for the kernel whilst ignoring the millions of man hours of other peoples time that made also went it (the majority of linux dev effort actually) reminds me of the numpties that think elon musk is literally knocking out rocket ship schematics and then having the spacex engineers rush off to implement his genius insight

Elijah Sandiford at Linus Tech Tips asking Linus Torvalds what happens to Linux if Linus dies. Recorded around September 2025. Aired in November. Plan made in the 2025 Maintainers Summit. Great episode: [VIDEO]

There was the video a little while back where LTT built a computer for Linus Torvalds and they put an Intel Arc card inside, so I'd imagine Linux support is at the very least, acceptable. [1] [VIDEO]

This is discussed in the Linus vs Linus interview, "Building the PERFECT Linux PC with Linus Torvalds". [0] [0] [VIDEO]

And 6K 31.5" is good for Linus / Linux [1] :-) More specifically the ASUS ProArt PA32QCV 31.5" [2]. [1]: [VIDEO] [2]: [LINK]
