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.

That's such a weird build, why have that PSU? That build doesn't get even close to requiring 1600W, the CPU + GPU are at around 550W together

Torvalds likes his computer quiet so that psu with so much overhead, the fan probably won’t ever turn on.
