I assume youve all seen that the screwdrivers sold at the pop-up have manufacturing issues? tweet / archive

The warranty process sounds sketchy.

Why not take back the defective screwdriver? If it's a simple fix, LTT could take the defective screwdrivers back and either fix them to fulfil future warranty claims and/or sell them at a discount as factory refurbished. There are plenty of big companies out there that regularly sell factory refurbished items via eBay.

The process of scratching an "x" into the side of the defective screwdriver sounds like it's open to abuse at both LTT's and the customer's end. What happens if the customer's second screwdriver is also faulty? Will LTT consider the matter closed after replacing the first one? What if the customer doesn't scratch an "x" into the first defective screwdriver? What happens if the customer injures themselves whilst scratching the "x"? Would LTT be liable for the injury?

How hilarious is it that Linus is getting screwed in multiple areas of his business by a debacle created by a literal screwdriver?

Most of the hot shit is coming from the backpack debacle but yeah, its fucking hilarious that the public opinion of him is turning because of a side-business

Honestly I'd still trust GN when it comes to hardware review and benchmarks, they've got that stuff pinpointed really well, it's just they prefer to do it in a video form rather than a web article form. Despite being a YouTube talking head, he does have a company that puts in effort in making those reviews, he isn't afraid to call a product shit when it is shit, and he is very anal about keeping shit unbiased like an old school journalist.

Linus really needs a PR/Lawyer team, he's making the things way worse to him by being a retarded entitled guy

All the leaf had to do was make a small batch of v1 screwdrivers, sell them without fanfare, and adjust and adapt the failings for v2. By putting all the hype on this screwdriver and stumbling out the gate it's good for watching Linus get some karma but now it seems like the only thing they do well is a water bottle, which is likely just another Chyna copy.

on the wan show it was brought up via a merch message why does Linus keep mentioning money in thumbnails and he got defensive but you can tell Luke doesn't like it, and it is reaching a point where "muh algorithm" doesn't matter. Linus says his power supply video is the most watched video for the last two weeks as he tries to justify it because he wants to spur passion about technology, he might actually believe his leaf faggotry now. He's also still hiring people for the lab and his mac address channel, word must be getting out he's not making the best offers.

One thing about the last wan show that I forgot to say here because KF was down. Linus probably saw that they fucked up big with the warranty drama so he blacklisted the discurssion there or he would comment as he always do about the GN, Louis Rossmann and the forum threads about it, aparently even merch messages about it was ignored.

I bet he is on the mindset that people will give up in a few weeks

I wonder how many panicky emails Linus has sent to Todd from Project Farm? You just know that the stress tests Todd has planned will be brutal, and he'll be subjecting a bunch of screwdrivers ranging from the cheapest Amazon shit to Snap-On and everything in between to exactly the same testing.

How much QA testing in development (which isn't cheap) do you reckon LTT did? I reckon not much.

Also I refer back to my earlier comment on the slap-dash mendacity of Chinese manufacturers.

The problem is that he's a one-track minded autist. He made a video a while back shitting on a Dell prebuilt by nitpicking the most retarded shit you've ever seen.

when did he say that? cuz I was able to spot a few discussions on the warranty drama on the LTT forum.
and almost everyone in the forum spotted Linus' minimal responses when it comes to a controversial topic.
