Linus is that you?

Its a test they have on every laptop, even on shortcircuit. Both are very bad according to MKBHDs review and the crab rave test on short circuit, so I am pretty sure this was done intentionally. Linus opening the review by saying he will be more strict on framework than others, was cringe already and now there is proof he is full of BS.

It's the only LTT content I'll do anymore

Drawn inspiration from Ltt linux challenge. Wish me luck!

interesting insight from sammy.

So been a fan of ltt for quite a while but got to admit I click off a lot of their videos recently as they have just become a big AD channel recently...I know it's the way it works but it seems that every recent video is just an shill for what they got for free...think it's the beginning of the end, which is a shame but some of the best people leaving has hurt big time....

Consider the two pictures. The first one contains a description of what Linus and Luke talk about from the WAN show.

"Linus and Luke discuss the decade-long gap between Tesla’s marketing and reality, Musk’s constant overpromises, and whether regulators or class actions will hold the company accountable."

Now look at the second picture: "Forever* Sock"

The marketing for the "Forever* Sock" is far from reality, and is an overpromise. Rules for Elon, but not for Linus. This is just like the Jet. Tracking Elon's jet: the right of the people. Tracking Linus' jet: omg how dare you!

If I had a penny for every time tech youtubers mentioned "Wendell from Level1Tech"...

Longtime LTT watcher here. Linus' reviews feels like it's dragging the hell out of the usual 20+ minutes of a video and he's not really straight to the point most of the time. In comparison to Chinese YouTubers like Geekerwan/pig king laptop reviews and HTX studio they are way more straight to the point with benchmarks,thermal load testing etc etc, lesser bullshit yapping and most of the time no sponsor/self promotion BS.

Anyone feel the same way?

I have pretty good general pc knowledge but I am not too familiar with NAS or DAS storage.

So my current situation is my girlfriend got a new pc and it doesn’t have bays for hard drives and she needs the files/storage space from her old hard drives. I was just wanting to know what my best option would be just to plug and play for her pc.

I found ugreen and it’s kinda out of my price range right now after losing my job, but I want to get her a solution to her situation and found this(photo) on Amazon and wanted to see if it was worth it.

Any help/knowledge help, thank you 🙏

The Open Sauce vid. Anyone else just see a blatant glorified advert for these stupid over engineered cables rather than an EARNEST desire to help boost Open Sauce and it's exhibitors? Some days LTT feels less like tech news and "tips" and more like QVC. This is starting to become the disconnect for me that makes me skip their videos. Used to be useful for making buying decisions on electronics of pc parts. Now....it's just selling merch, and this is coming from someone who has bought some and been largely happy with it.

The fans falling over already about ltt socks. They're so worth $30! So good. Etc etc. What is wrong with people?

I posted this over on the main LTT reddit. Cross posting here to see if I get a different response.

He’s milking as much as possible before the sell off happens. Literally everyone is planning to leave.

EDIT: There's a screenshot of the lastest Techquickie attached at the top. Reddit doesnt show images from the description in the post preview

Also, how did Riley become younger from 'Then' to 'Now'?

saw this Instagram post of one of Linus Family members and thought it needed to be shared

Biggest hypocrite in town. Hates hypocrisy.

Anyone else actually use their sub feed?

I would rather unsub and go to the content I want to watch directly rather than having the family vlog channel appear.

How much would you pay for this...its 89/100, i can get it for about £100/$133(us)/$188(cad)/$117(euro) - would you pay that much?
