new TV and Vive vr set so he can lose weight

...maybe go on a run/walk instead? For free?

...maybe go on a run/walk instead? For free?

Right, but that doesn't generate ad revenue for papa Linus.

...maybe go on a run/walk instead? For free?

There was an exercise machine of some description in the video (maybe a spin bike) that Linus moved from the lounge to the junk room.

Everyone in the video was wearing masks, which I would assume was more because of the smell of the place than covid.
Kitchen looked immaculate.

Fat fucks like him would already start dramatically losing weight by just eating like a normal person. No movement necessary. (In fact - movement beyond a certain very low point discouraged, if you're a deathfat that could cause more damage than it helps, at least in the beginning) You don't end up looking like this because you got extra hungry that one time after work and ate a pizza for dinner even though you already had a good lunch. You look like this because every single meal is one or several pizzas. You don't need any fancy gagdets, just the calculator in your smartphone to count calories. Just by regulating his caloric intake he could probably drop off 40 pounds in no time. Not that that would be that meaningful at his point.

Also he totally looks like a troon in that video and big namechange announcement incoming I bet. Like fucking clockwork.

Re: screwdriver. He should've gone at least the extra mile for an electric screwdriver bitset. They're a bit more expensive but would at least have goten a ooooh effect out of his fanbase. I bet that thing was the cheapest offer the chinamen could make. Who would buy this even at a normal price? The cheap bitsets that got mentioned in this thread are more useful.

Another home episode, sponsored by LG so it's a free TV (but he only got a 75 inch not an 86 inch). Still has his employees installing it and running through his attic to remove cables, to the point where it's nighttime since his kids are in pajamas. Most depressing part is that he brought over his entertainment shelf from the old house, then bitches about it being a cheap Wayfair thing. Don't buy the cheap made in Chyna thing for once, if that's the case you shouldn't have moved it over, get something new and just give it to charity.

I watched Anthony's video just out of curiosity now that he's "married" and he's definitely trooning soon, the lipgloss was a dead giveaway and the makeup on his face highlights how fat he's gotten that he's formed a fat crease oval. When he troons out he can co-host the LTT Mac channel with the guy who can't spell Jonathan right.

I hope Anthony is reading this thread as this is really good advice. It really is all about diet, especially at his size.

PL and OT but here's a chart I generated from my original weight tracking spreadsheet (I now use openScale to keep a track of this)

I didn't even count calories, just massively cut down my eating, banned sodas, ice cream, chocolate, etc. and did the intermittent fasting meme.

With 1 year of completely passive effort, Anthony could go from being the greasy walking freakshow he currently is to a somewhat respectable adult. Anthony, have you ever wondered what it's like to be able to walk to the mailbox without running out of breath? To be able to go to the shops or ride a bus without everyone gawking at you? It's all within your grasp, you just gotta start and there's no better time to begin than right now.

Just by regulating his caloric intake he could probably drop off 40 pounds in no time. Not that that would be that meaningful at his point.

Lowering his caloric intake to a reasonable number would be an excellent start; as you say, you don't stay that size with a sneak snack every now and then, it's because every meal is several meals and/or you drink anything but water (a lot of sugar in everything). If he wanted exercise, the big thing to worry about are his joints, especially his knees; if he wants to move, either a daily walk or two, and/or one of those sit-down exercise bikes, so you can exercise while gaming (I've done it). But a good start would be a proper diet, doing a morning/evening walk, and drinking water (no soda, gatorade, coffee, none of that, water). He'd probably see results within 2 weeks if he could stick to it, and a month would be definite results; the hard part is fighting your body and its cravings, he needs a food wrangler or a shock collar.

Another good exercise for Anthony would probably be swimming

Did Linus sperg out about Roe yet?

Did Linus sperg out about Roe yet?

Out of 50 employees, 5 look to be true and honest women. Doesn't seem like Linus Media Group has a strong trans infection yet, but they are Canadian, so some virtue-signaling about their innate superiority to their southern neighbors is assured.

Interestingly, aside from having 50 employees (holy shit), their latest hires look to be Antoine Laforge and Sam Vafaei of rtings. Antoine, before rtings, previously worked on grenade launcher designs at a Canadian defense firm. Based.

Seems like that's the goal then -- launch a product rating site with "in-depth" reviews such that they can generate massive referral fees by recommending the "best" items. If they can get their zoomer user base to use them as a default instead of garbage like the Wirecutter or the boomer Consumer Reports, they can make some real money.

If.

 

[mandatorylurk]

In the scrubbing the recent Wan show (was doing housework and ran out of other podcasts to listen to) he talks about the audio version of the labs and some criticism/comments from some noted sound person Crinacle. You can watch in real time Linus have buyers remorse the same way he did in the new building video, realizing audio testing means nothing if it has to pass through a filter like youtube to the viewer (but muh written reviews), and is much more subjective than something like reviewing monitors or computer stuff. He also tries to make himself sound not like a normie review channel which they are.

timestamped for the part:

Crinacle's video

Not to mention every single rating systems may differs because of difference methods of data collection and biases that the testers' have. Here's another video from Crinacle where he explains the ratings don't mean shit.

For people that aren't into audio, different people have different sensitivities towards audio. There are also different ways to determine whether or not an audio equipment is well tuned or just plain sucks with the most popular being Harman Curve made by... Harman International, obviously. I have ran a simple audio test around my family and friends using the same audio equipment (in-ear monitors) around the same time window with the same condition and the result is vastly different person to person. I'm not sure how Linus and his team will handle those data, only time will tell if they'll succeed or basically throwing away $50,000 for nothing.

EDIT: grammer cuz I spaek no ingrish and broken youtube link

Man the last thing I heard about tech tubers is literally that thing about putting AIO wrongs, iirc Linus ,Jay and Gamernexus too told people that putting the tubes incorrectly like the inputs of the radiator up would create noise and probably rape the pump , that thing sadly leaked to lesser tech tubers that have to tell people to shut the fuck up about it because the noises and pump failures rarely happen

I remember it because when I was doing research for a friend of the h510 flow and the poor indian guy had to tell the Linus dickriders to shove it

And when he got his gay lab i joked that he was going to do ASMR considering those mics are like the K100, a mic weebs are very familiar with it

If it's short video format, judging by how well their shorter spin-off channels have performed, I can see his audience lapping it up regardless of the underlying quality. The question is when will it get outed for their poor testing work, last time I cared to watch their "testing" was so laughably bad when they tried to take it seriously. I doubt they've hired anyone qualified, and if they have they'll be neutered before prime time.

Still probably will be an entertaining dumpster fire, I hope they stick all their dumpsters closer together for this.

Linus is clearly monitoring this thread, and has responded to our mocking his Red cameras!

TL;DW it's YouTube's fault for not changing their software to support higher grade formats' metadata

Spoiler: archived title and thumbnail because he'll change it to try and goose the algorithm

I mean, you can't exactly complain when you know the medium you're producing to and don't keep into mind the limitations. Sure, improvements will happen but you can't deliberately overproduce and then complain when the technology doesn't support what you want.

Also, I feel like this entire thing could literally just be solved by Linus just saying "futureproofing". Having the highest quality original recording means you can remaster later on. Though it's also debatable at whether that's important if you're a tech channel producing several videos per week that often only really work in the context of current events. Maybe if he was a movie producer that'd make more sense.

I don't think the lab is going to work out is because LMG seem the types to mischaracterize or falsify results if given enough money to do so. I feel there is credibility lost from the gate due to LMG doing sponsorships from other providers of technology frequently and Linus himself even being an investor (in Framework specifically).

LMG is already in an "Falsus in uno, falsus in omnibus" situation. In my opinion they have to do a lot more than others to prove they are a credible resource. I do not feel the lab is going to do this.

I'm ready to be proven wrong but I'll be very suprised if I am.

Watch and wait... they will do many videos about how the lab works and how they are working hard in the lab. In between frequently sponsored breaks and episodes.

They're probably gonna get the lab results the manufacturer wants published right with the free merch.

I was watching their video about the lasted One Plus phone and Linus' wife wasn't using his name. Is it only on the videos they make?
