I don't know where LMG find their staff but Dan is definitely one of my favourites, someone super smart and super interesting and I'm sure he's a joy to be around. Great work guys!
Dan strikes me as one of the smartest people at LMG. He can solder, weld, design furniture (incredibly well!), play music, mix audio, communicate everything to viewers, and be funny as Hell.
Ive gottent hat vibe since he first showed up. Though this makes his Audiophile knowledge make much more sense. People were ragging on him in early audio videos, but clearly he does know what hes talking about. As he seems to do with just about everything hes presented with.
I have such a man crush on Dan lol. He's got the best humour and attitude and his voice is fantastic. He's so smart and has such a wide range of knowledge.
Man I cannot stress this enough, I love the editing and time taken into account for these videos. I appreciate the content y'all put out. God bless y'all 🎉🎉
I just finished my cable management and monitor arm installation on my standing desk yesterday. IT IS SO CLEAN. I made the desk too, but out of walnut, because I have class, unlike Dan.
I love this series. Kind of feels like a few buddies getting together to help dan out on the weekend, with some jokes worthy of a visit to HR sprinkled within.
Before I knew Dan's age I thought he was somewhere near his late 40's.....I think it's due to his OLD SOUL presence....and also how he describes his body being broken...He's too young to have all of those old person ailments he has. :)
my back's been going out since my mid 20's, damage in the tendons in my legs mean I can't run, and years of technician work means that my right pinky and ring finger are partly numb. I understand his life way too well
As a fellow neurodivergent I'm often mistaken for being about a decade older than I actually am. I think for a lot of us we grew up a bit too fast as a self defense mechanism, that's definitely the case for me.
Dan's my hero. This is peak single man housing. I've been into CAD design for appartment stuff recently too. Dan week might be what finally brings me to Floatplane!
Before I watch, I would like to say I'm really glad Dan got selected for one of these upgrades! I remember seeing his setup in the guess the staff member's setup episode, so cool to seem him get his setup managed. Now on to the video!
Most definitely one of the best videos you guys have to date. the jokes, the comedic timing from the editor, DAN, and awesome finished product. I'm glad to see you guys are thriving right now and can't wait for more episodes. in the last 2 years you guys have become one of my favorite channels on the site.
I just love how this whole series in general just makes me feel a lot better and less guilty about my cable management or cables everywhere hidden behind some monitor box and my other computers 😂
This episode was frankly awesome I love the jokes and banter between the team; Dan is always a delight and him running with all these jokes with a wit far quicker than mine is just perfect. I think this settles it, it no longer an 'if I get Floatplane I'll really enjoy all the behind the scenes', it's 'when I have disposable income again, some of it is definitely going to floatplane'.
This was actually one of my favorite videos this year, the makeover ones always tend to be amazing. I don't know anything about audio, or have any interest in the sponsor tbh...but every part of the video was funny and the interactions are so genuine. Even the fake invoice at the end, the attention to detail is great!!
Yeah, that’s why the WAN show sponsor pay extra so often. People actually listen to those segments because they’re funny and lend themselves well to natural banter.
The editing style, the sponsor tie in, absolutely incredible! DAN no mixdesk is complete without a trackball mouse! Love the console, my college had one of those :D
I got the same exact chair from Costco and I love it. I once bought a highly rated chair from Newegg that got destroyed in half a year but this chair has now lasted me 3 years looking like new. I’m not sure if I can comment too much on the lumbar support though. I’m 23 years old and don’t really get back problems too often but this chair is super comfortable
As a keyboard player myself who also likes to stand up and even walk on a treadmill at a desk, I've been drooling over the Elite Sit-Stand Studio Desk by AZ Studio Workstations. I can't begin to afford it (it's a US$2,000 desk), but it looks so useful and space-efficient. It could hold my 88-key keyboard in a pullout shelf. Alas, my keyboard is just a hobby and my job has nothing to do with music, so it's not like I could justify it as a business expense.
To me this is the greatest video I've watched this year. I enjoyed it a lot. (Character) Dan (I don't know Daniel Besser, so I just judge on the character "Dan") is such a character and my spirit animal in a lot of things. I loved everything about this!
Holy I have not seen a C24 since I owned a recording studio in 2009. I forgot what they looked like. Very awesome to see a capable controller still be used today, instead of 10 grand of e-waste the way Avid wanted.
The prehistoric artwork/prints on Dan's walls is from Aaron John Gregory ( seen at 8:50 )... Looks like he sells prints at "Cotton Crustacean". Thought I'd mention to save someone the hunt.
Great feel good vibes here, and what an awesome result. Dan, I LOVE your space..just the right amount of random pictures, things, 'n stuff that shows off your personality. In contrast, I'm sure Riley would have a heart attack in here 😀
Ive been on the fence for being a floatplane sub for a long time cause I already get so much content from LTT but finding out there was ALOT more of this it swayed me Dan is my fav person from LTT and im becoming a lifelong sub for him :) already subed for a year :D
Same here, once I get to the point that I’m not worrying about having enough for gas and groceries, I want to subscribe to Floatplane purely for more Dan content.
Hex yeah on the synths and rack gear! Love to see a fellow recording musician at LTT 😎. Awesome that you’re making great use of the old Digidesign stuff. It might be old but it still does the job!

No thanks
Oh, yes, I do know about Open ERP, in fact I self-host it at several locations which you can also do for completely free!
Now if only @buhdan could figure out how to invoice Linus for the work he did! He can use Odoo to do it. (Re: last WAN show.)
i call dibs on the next setup doctor....
I love Dan's terrified confidence. It's a vibe.
Yessss hahaha
@@snjert8406 I don't quite understand?
@@user-op8fg3ny3j Mans vibe is like he is on the edge of an anxiety attack, im sure a lot of us can relate lol.
Just say it with confidence and people don't know what you are talking about.
dan is just a vibe
I don't know where LMG find their staff but Dan is definitely one of my favourites, someone super smart and super interesting and I'm sure he's a joy to be around. Great work guys!
I like how Dan has tech worth thousands of dollars in his room and then he just has poorly attached animal pelt on his wall
It hangs on a thumb tack. :^)
Did he say he lived in a garage? Sure couldent tell, but makes sense with their rental marked.
Tens of thousands
Priorities.
*Saruman voice* TENS OF THOUSANDS
8:12 "Grinders and paint, make me the welder I ain't" Lmfao I love Tynan
It's an old saying, fairly standard even.
do your best and grind the rest (but he didnt even clean up the spatter..)
“Luke’s mom works everywhere” is crazy 😂
Luke's mom caught a stray for no reason 😭
"Yes she does" was so unnecessary, I'm cackling hahah
Not even bad, people just have sick minds. That literally can't be interpreted any other way than how linus meant it as a compliment
"strong entrepreneurial spirit" 😏
If they put it on a shirt I’d buy it.
This is a new record of the rate of jokes in a single video! Approximately 130 jokes per hour.
Dan strikes me as one of the smartest people at LMG. He can solder, weld, design furniture (incredibly well!), play music, mix audio, communicate everything to viewers, and be funny as Hell.
Don't forget build PCs, network them, develop applications and crack the best worst jokes!
Wasn't he like a Harvard guy, and an archeologist before lmg? I'm pretty sure I remember that from somewhere in this parasocial relationship
@@lifeisgood12341 Uh, no. If there is somebody who was, I don't know who they are. Dan has qualifications in CAD and Logistics
S-tier LMG staff member IMO
Ive gottent hat vibe since he first showed up. Though this makes his Audiophile knowledge make much more sense. People were ragging on him in early audio videos, but clearly he does know what hes talking about. As he seems to do with just about everything hes presented with.
A lot of Dan's humor is subtle, like, if you aren't paying attention you might miss the severity of those burns.
this, scrapyard wars, AMD $5k upgrades, secret shopper, and car/van upgrades are by far my favorite video series
I miss the home upgrade series. Haven't had one of those in a hot minute.
@@Keiuranit’s been 12 days lol
@@notbadsince97 a hot minute < 17,280 hot minutes 💁♂
I would love a visit from the setup doctor,but I think I'd need an amd tech upgrade first. My 2 laptops are pretty clean.
Yeah we eating good these past few months
15:17 "If I could use one of those pull-out lights , I wouldnt have three kids"
Cracked me up.
Dan is one of my favorite LMG guys so this was quite a treat. His dry humor and quick witted remarks just really make him easy to like.
I have such a man crush on Dan lol. He's got the best humour and attitude and his voice is fantastic. He's so smart and has such a wide range of knowledge.
The Luke's Mom Merch Messages this week are going to be wild..
Luke's mom used to phone in to threaten Linus
@@Metal_Maxine yepshe is for sure gonna hear about this and have something to say
1:31 "Setup Doctor and his capable team", puff this team don't even have the most capable, reliable and handsome technician Elijah
Odoo must have shelled out a fortune to get a sponsor presence like this
I've seen a lot of Odoo ads on different RUclips videos so far, but this right here was the best one so far
First Odoo, next Badoo
Quite funny (and nice) as a Belgian to see a Belgian compagny being the sponsor
@@elchartps3 TIL Odoo is a Belgian company. Nice!
Man I cannot stress this enough, I love the editing and time taken into account for these videos. I appreciate the content y'all put out. God bless y'all 🎉🎉
I can't and won't believe that Dan is just 31. He's giving such dad energy
Him getting the trademark LTT skinnyfat bodytype also helps.
Had to take a break after hearing that. He is my age...
What the fuck. I'm one year younger than him...
@@H4NN1BAL i'm 2 years younger than him and also had to take a breather
I'm not comfortable knowing that I'm older than him!
"the reveal" transition with the HGTV graphic and little HGTV sounding music SENT ME 🤣
If that sent you just imagine the set up operations that aren't successful. 😆
The tone of this video is just a complete dan takeover video and i love it
All hail our Dan Tech Tips overlord.
Takeover or Makeover? :D
I just finished my cable management and monitor arm installation on my standing desk yesterday. IT IS SO CLEAN. I made the desk too, but out of walnut, because I have class, unlike Dan.
14:38 ... "Don't forget it"... The way Dan says it, with that resonance... That's fire 💯
Was just about to comment the same 👍🏼
"Lukes mom works everywhere" is absolutely great🤣
This is like a British Netflix show
Wait how is this so accurate
Underrated
Fr
any suggestions of shows like this then?
What time do you think you might be able to come over
the editing and energy in this is so insane, i love it
I love this series. Kind of feels like a few buddies getting together to help dan out on the weekend, with some jokes worthy of a visit to HR sprinkled within.
This would make a good HR training video. :-)
The editing for this video is unlike any others, I can dig it.
"wow, cEiLing powEr" "I live in a garage"
Shout out for editor! This "not so funny" jokes sound made my day xD My GF came and asked why I am laughing so loud xD
Before I knew Dan's age I thought he was somewhere near his late 40's.....I think it's due to his OLD SOUL presence....and also how he describes his body being broken...He's too young to have all of those old person ailments he has. :)

Late 40’s?!

I have been cable managing in the back of a rack all morning and this is what I needed to feel better about myself.
nice
nice
I hope you didnt bundle power and audio :(
nice
I just love how this whole series in general just makes me feel a lot better and less guilty about my cable management or cables everywhere hidden behind some monitor box and my other computers 😂
Dan and Adam together sure is a chaos crew and i love it.
This episode was frankly awesome

13:37 This really was just a day hanging with the lads. 😂
By the lads, for the lads.
That's leet
The editor nailed this one, congrats!
Gotta Love Dan. Casually having a real Moog standing there on the side. What's next? A Mellotron as a monitor stand? ;-)

I love how immediately dan responds to linus’s sarcasm
Omg can they not go 1 minute without a damn ad?
dennis makes the best sponsor ads
I actually watch them lmao
Live, Laugh, Listen to this segway to our sponsor. 😂
He's way better at sponsor ads than hosting, that's for sure
Yeah, that’s why the WAN show sponsor pay extra so often. People actually listen to those segments because they’re funny and lend themselves well to natural banter.
the audio work is immaculate, props to the sound engineer
Man I already loved Dan and then he pulls out the modular? Be still my beating heart
The editing style, the sponsor tie in, absolutely incredible! DAN no mixdesk is complete without a trackball mouse! Love the console, my college had one of those :D
Please more setup doctor!!! I laughed so much with episode 1!!!
I usually skip sponsor segments... However, I never skip the ones Dennis creates. They are genuinely so entertaining!
The sexual innuendos in this one are blowing off the charts.

Got so excited when I saw that they posted, thought it was scrapyard wars but this will do
Same I saw a 2 at the end of the video and just assumed it was scrapyard wars, without reading the rest of the title or looking at the thumbnail.
i think it's every week or 2, not sure which is right.
@@ragefacememeaholic5366I think I subconsciously did the same thing
Linus needs a spandex uniform with a cape like a super hero.
Protect Dan at all costs
I can't help but love Dan fixing Linus' bad cable management at the office and Linus fixing Dans bad cable management at home
Dan is only 31 ?!!!
Yeah, his chin looks 50.
It's honestly the most shocking thing I've heard this year, so far!
I blame Linus for this 100%
Thought the Same, he seems wayyyy older, based on how much He knows and hast already done.

He also has some degree of divorced nerdy uncle energy.
Dan is a treasure, we need more of him always.
Using a BIG TV as a close distance monitor - I worship You Dan!
i do too, i have a 55" 4k tv as monitor. its perfect
I think that Dan and Adam in the same video is just a recipe for a good video
I saw "Ep 2" and was thinking, "OMG Scrapyard wars already? Yay... Oh. Well this is great too"
I'm realizing more and more that I need a Dan in my life.
the i cant wait ( weight) joke rly was amazing, thank you linus and the editor
This is one of my favorite videos for not just content but also for the jokes and bits
Luke's Mom works everywhere is the hardest I have LOL'd to an LTT video in a good long while
I love how much Dan has come into his own, on camera at least
I'm seeing drawings of anomalocaris, dunkleosteus, and helicoprion on the wall. I'm guessing Dan really likes prehistoric sea creatures.
ADS with Dennis are just the best pls more of them!!
The jokes on this one are terrible and I love it

Got to agree with Linus' assessment - I hadn't thought of Dan's home, but that's exactly what I expected it to be.
The best Doctor in the world?? Bro made a life changing surgery
The prehistoric artwork/prints on Dan's walls is from Aaron John Gregory ( seen at 8:50 )... Looks like he sells prints at "Cotton Crustacean". Thought I'd mention to save someone the hunt.
0:11 uhh, why does the intro feature video of sperm? Is Linus making a mess in his employee's houses again?
Well, they don't belong to Linus. He had a vasectomy. And talked about it in leg-crossing detail on the WAN the week after
I did really like the humor of this video. Whole team did seem to have a good chemistry
3:56 If these are the "family friendly" jokes that made it to RUclips, I can't imagine what jokes the uncensored version on Floatplane has😂
