TL:DW It’s a 54:20 video of Fake Linus interviewing with Linus Torvalds. It goes over Linus’s views on hardware choice, questions about Linux and several community questions.

The video is long, but it’s a good listen.

      The Intel Battlemage is an interesting choice. I’d put one in non-gaming PC if the price was right, but what is his reasoning? I have alchemist cards that have been running 8 hours a day on QA PCs perfectly fine for 2+ years. They sucked for the first couple months until Intel significantly improved the drivers.
