A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

shits wild, they really fucked it up every step of the way

I suspect that all the not Linus people were already working towards publishing a response like this to the Gamer's Nexus video when Linus ran off wildcarding again and they then decided to rush out a video so they could clearly state that Linus's response only represented Linus's knee-jerk response and was not supported by or representative of LTT/LMG's take. So... It really really sucks that they responded to a situation created by them rushing and being sloppy by rushing and being sloppy but it may well be that if Linus had been kept under control they wouldn't have and keeping Linus under control seems to be a big part of their strategy going forwards. I guess my point is it's too early to judge whether the shift in internal power dynamics at LTT/LMG, refocusing their priorities and reducing their rate of output will actually solve the issues or not.
