Discussion Gamers Nexus video on LTT (LMG)

[DrMrLordX]

of looking like a 90's lesbian with a receding hairline?

Hey now, I knew some 90's lesbians, and they were a lot cuter than Steve!

my reasoning was it's hard to watch something on my ipad when I'm cooking sausages that are spitting hot fat out onto my arms and hands. this is a better excuse but even if I were not cooking I'd still follow what you did. youtube videos need to be less than 3 minutes long. any video that's longer asks to be skipped around.

When dealing with 10+ minute YouTube vids full of talking, I turn on auto closed captions and then speed the video up to 1.5x-2x depending on the cadence of the speaker. It's a bit hard to do that with Linus since he can talk pretty quickly, sometimes. Still I can do about 1.5x with him.

linus!

linus!

Yes, especially with the two earrings!

 

[DrMrLordX]

linus!

Okay they were cuter than him too lol

Anyway to me this is much ado about nothing, since LTT isn't really a go-to for good tech info anyway. Kinda sucks that Steve/GN and HWUB even got dragged into this. Just means I will be watching even less LTT.

if i were to make an educated guess steve assuming that's the gn guy with the fro jesus hair was unaware of the can of worms his video would expose. id further say that linus may be mostly unaware of the stuff that happens at lmd or whatever it's called. he barely recognizes any staff beyond his core early employees. linus is a total cloud brain yeah but I wouldn't call him an egomaniac just yet.

I expect quite a few heads to roll in the coming weeks or months at lmd.

I may regret replying this but it might be time to close the thread. there's some weird fanatacism for linus or victims here and people are letting their emotions or sexism get to them an affect their judgement. I don't think the thread warrants anyone here getting in trouble further than they may have with the staff. people lobing incendiary comments towards each other doesn't help.

Another video take on the situation from Aris (Cybernetics). Clever use of TechTechPotato on the thumbnail...

Mods here decided to EOL this thread and heard all of you to Off Topic if you wish to continue this discussion as it had very little to do with CPU and Overclocking.

Therefore we are locking this thread.

Offtopic Thread:

You thought you didn't like Linus Tech Tips

Until now. But now .. your opinion .. will change. For the worse. LTT had the bright idea to talk smack about Hardware Unboxing and Gamers Nexus - it does not go well.
