  1. So you want an apology video? Cause those always go over oh so well...
  2. Lab wise I would argue that just because LTT is using data from the lab doesnt mean the lab is fully up and running. Maybe the reason they havnt started the website and channel is because they already know their data and processes are not where they need to be. Actually, I can nearly guarantee that's the case. I could tell you a D15 isnt enough for a modern top end CPU. There's a reason the D15v2/D16 is going to be a thing. Also LTT themselves has shown dual 360 rads as not being enough to fully cool a 13900K at full tilt. When it comes to conflict of interest LMG will never be away from it unless like GN they try not to take those sponsorship deals. At the size of LMG I dont see that being a possibility. Right now most of what GN has said is conjecture and proving a negative is near impossible. What Labs needs to do is get their data good and start setting a track record of what should be expected from here on out. If they dont have good data dont use it. So many things seem to be getting cut to get the video out. Though its like that on so many big channels. The number of time I wish Donut Media would just finish a build properly. Its always well thats the time we had, onto then next thing to feed the algorithm.
  3. See what would entail addressing this is full. Also at this point how could he make it come off as sincere?
  4. I dont think LMG's aim is to be GN. LMG is a Media companyaka Entertainment. Theyve also had partnerships with both companies in the past. Original LTT Noctua Black fans before Noctua put out the Chromax line. Literally have one of those coolers in my server. ROG Rig Reboot as just one example from ASUS.
  5. Correct they as a company want this to die down and go away and thats how I would do it. I can basically guarantee that in a month the community will be onto something else. This will be mentioned in passing if at all. The number of times people say things like this will kill YouTuber's and other content creators and couple years later almost no one remembers. The internet forgets, far more than it thinks it does. What they needs is a plan to fix it (much of which was probably already in place) and time to act on that plan. Nothing LMG can do right now would fix or solve this. As GN said if there was another statement at this point would anyone think it was sincere?
  6. In my eyes that person was just a bit delusional about how a job works. Dont know them or their history but working with the LMG team at LTX has reinforced that at their size LMG is a regular employer that hires regular people. People want to put them on a pedestal since they're a "YouTuber".
  7. Then you let them roast you. Better to keep your mouth shut than give people more ammunition. If anything it should just be a statement acknowledging what went on and a plan going forward. Maybe also something like he wont be making statements on topics like this going forward.
  8. Wow, thats what you're going after not the fact that it was auctioned when it was supposed to be shipped back and affected Billet in a number of ways. Left field much? Do we even know how much it went for? My guess some amount fairly inconsequential compared to the company or even LTX. Money for charity is good to see, however much it is. Just sucks how it was raised this time.
  9. Linus essentially said in the post he commented because most if not all of this fell under his purview at the time.
  10. pretty sure its been mentions on WAN Show that they may go away from daily uploads. In that context it was more talked about in the way of running out of content to make people will actually watch rather than slowing it down for quality. That would be a side benefit though.
  11. I think that all depends on local tax law, or tax law of the person donating.
  12. From talking directly to those in charge it is very much still a work in progress, but at some point you've got to produce something and make something with what you have. You may not thoroughly optimize things if you know they're just going to change. The realities of working at company and developing and implementing processes and procedures. Its kinda like how my desk is setup in the basement like a mess so I can get work done still when I have a mostly finished office upstairs that I cant wait to move into *SoonTM
  13. Correct, and for efficiencies sake its got to be split up that way. I can also guess there's probably more than one person with their hand on at each step. LMG cant just effectively shut down when a new GPU or CPU comes out like many smaller outfits do. Biggest issue is using data before the process is ready to be used. However I know from experience if its the only data you've got, you've gotta use it. The process for labs is still developing (lacking air conditioning means that environmental chamber is running round the clock). I have a feeling less effort has been put into checks and balances on the data since they dont yet have the data they really want. Its a tricky balance and as you get bigger it gets harder. There's no way a since person can know everything about a project anymore.
  14. All i'll say is the number of bottlenecks you just created in the workflow is immense! There's a reason why they acquired a number of 7800X3D's that average within margin of error. Also, humans are prone to error I would rather automate settings, far less likely theyll be incorrect. I'll agree when it comes to the video. Should have the writer watch and verify everything is correct as well as someone knowledgeable enough that wasn't directly involved. That outside party verification ie key! I can guarantee the Editors are just going off the script and other resources and wont necessarily be knowledgeable enough to know themselves. For the type of throughput LMG has priority would be on the editing competence, not their tech knowledge. Im also fairly sure this is already in place to an extent but its probably times to go back around and find out why things are falling through the cracks. If its like any company ive worked at they probably already know. Knowing it and solving it are two different things.
  15. In minutes, earlier today on Twitter when it broke. That aside, Linus himself has come up with resolutions similar to this before for other issues and for other people. He's also not worked with manufactures over them screwing over backers and refusing to refund. My guess here is that its happening to him right now and he's doesn't see an issue with the content. However, in situations like this it really doesn't really matter what you think. It's all about what others perceive and turning that around. I can tell you I haven't always thought this way, or been in the position to do so.
