Linus Gabriel Sebastian & Linus Media Group / Linus Tech Tips - Narcissistic corporate shill YouTuber driving his media empire into the ground. KILL COUNT: 2

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
letting incorrect or inconclusive results escape the lab and onto video for the sake of saving a couple hundred bucks makes absolutely no financial sense at all.
It kind of does, if you think that your audience is made up of good goy niggercattle that won't notice.

The most shocking revelation from this video is that LMG has access to a 'drop-in place' video editing system that, as far as I'm aware, has only been a rumor. There have been claims that big dinosaur media agencies have been completely replacing very old videos that made current major politicians look bad, but I thought that was probably a bridge too because it would involve YouTube directly. Now that I know the big channels actually have this feature to use on their own, I believe it.
The complete mutability of media is the most dangerous and insidious thing the internet age has ever created, and it's only going to get worse if no one takes initiative on it.

And he compares it to the cost of the product, as if that should even matter, even if the product was free.
That's the thing that stuck out to me. They're already talking about bleeding-edge cooling for early-adopter, impossible to find unicorn graphics cards. Price doesn't mean shit to the customer demo that product was targeting. These are people playing around with hand-built liquid nitrogen rigs, $800 is nothing.

Actually to be fair, we already solved this in 2001.
There'd be nothing stopping a platform owner from simply changing the displayed hash, and it would have to be called out by someone autistic enough to be logging hashes on everything, which is essentially the same problem we have now. A hash in a PoW blockchain is entirely immutable as soon as the block is committed (barring 50% attacks etc etc).

If LTT doesn't make an official response, this is going to turn into a iilluminaughtii death spiral situation.

They should make a response, but the latter is funnier.
I am hoping for the classic video smug Nonpology.
His forum responses already seemed to be indicating that direction and it would both spiral the situation further while also giving us more content, win/win.

someone else also suggested sprinklings of “2 million death threats we are the real victims!!!” and yeah I think we will get that proven method as well. It’s funny this was all caused by unprovoked smug shit talking of gn for no reason multiple times, and then he has the gall to ask why they didn’t reach out privately (so they could cover it up without the public knowing). Really telling.

Im thinkin harvest tiem.
 
FRESH OFF THE PRESS
Watched it last night great video. Linus and his community come from that new era of the internet where everything is "toxic" and "drama" just an attempt to deflect criticism.
I think the biggest thing this exposed is how much of a hypocrite Linus is, he admits to rushing out videos to save money when rushing out products for money is one of his biggest criticisms of companies.
 
LTT's fans apparently caused someone's wife and son to an hero

Linus would go onto reply

And this appears to be legitimate as this was his last video he posted

You'll have to excuse me if I don't take a Redditor's word on any of this happing. It still wouldn't be his fault even if this is true and I would think that users of this site would be less gung ho crying about cyberbullying.
 
muh blockchain solves this but unironically.
It would cost a small fortune to encode even a short, low-quality video onto a blockchain, let alone Linus’ thirty minute 4k60 pieces. If you do the NFT trick of only encoding the URL it wouldn’t actually help when the issue is he’s switching videos out without altering the URL. You could encode the URL and a hash, but how YouTube constantly reencodes videos you’d get too many false positives to be useful.
