I mean I'm capable of independent thought, so I have noticed these quality issues for years. I am still around because I get enough value watching LTT for entertainment instead of technical information. That continues to be the case, though I do hope they improve those quality issues. The "main thread" has further insights for those who care.

listed TDP is 300W. Calculate how much power the rest of your system should draw, and see if it is less. Keep in mind that sometimes load transients (short changes in power draw and voltage as load changes) can create temporary periods of load exceeding the rated TDP/power draw of a component, so some buffer should be used. This GPU (unlike, say, the nvidia 30-series) isn't famous for huge transients, so with a CPU that draws under 200W, I suspect you'll be fine.

I didn't say it was acceptable.

I meant that it makes me tend to believe her.

Their side of factual mistakes? Their side of factually auctioning off a prototipe tha wasn't even theirs?
 
This is not a talk show, this is journalism. When you have factual information, you report on them. You don't have to respect any "par condicio" in these situations.

Made previous responses here and here. I also replied on the FP post (but the formatting tools there still suck). I hope the feedback of a vessel-era supporter who has spent quite a bit of money on LMG, and watched every video for probably a decade+ merits someone on staff at least reading. That's all I ask.
 
Things the above don't address:
- it sounds like you ARE taking feedback after being smashed in the head with a baseball bat about it, and slowing down. This is my #1 ask, to take the time to make quality, correct content so I can trust information again and not just watch for entertainment. I hope that the time taken is put to good use. Full details linked above.
- Your "new info' about Billet thankfully doesn't change my comments at all
- The tweet(s) by Madison I just saw are pretty bad. I more or less believe innocent til proven guilty, but also don't require a court of law to arrive at my own evaluations of guilt. Most stuff like billet don't matter much, and need a pattern for me to take that and say "you suck, game over, goodbye". If the Madison stuff holds up (I've just once read a tweet at 5am), that's a bigger strike. Take the time, be careful, apologize as appropriate, and don't get into ugly public blame games. I watch you for tech videos. That's what I want to see. When it comes to "drama" all I want to see is "as little as possible" and "when you have an actionable item, you do the right thing and don't repeat mistakes". That's it. People have focused a lot on billet labs and similar small incidents. I care less about those things. I care the most about quality content I don't have to audit as I watch and can "just trust". That's not been a thing in a long time. Quality hasn't kept up with scope, and that's the biggest issue I have. It isn't enough to make me leave, as I haven't yet, and I didn't need a GN video to figure out you have these issues. But it was enough to make me unsub from Jay a long time ago. So I do hope it doesn't get to that point. Sounds like you're gonna make serious efforts to prevent that though, and I look forward to it.
- 6 nines is a crazy goal Luke, good luck (I'm an SRE, I know how hard that is. Even just "having a cloud provider" can auto nuke that SLO, a recent lambda outage did a number on me where we'd have failed that measure for sure)
- markbench open source (and testing methodology) will be great. I have professionally worked on these things when I was at Intel. I care enough to give feedback, and hope I get the chance to do so. I want my local tech media company to succeed.

I already posted an "overall thoughts" comment (still hoping to see an LMG set of eyes on it, I do think that someone should be reading every comment here, even if they don't reply to all of em). So I won't restate those opinions/observations.
 
What I will say is I'm surprised (well really just disappointed) with the direction of the comments here. Everyone is focusing on the smaller issue of Billet Labs. Linus probably wasn't involved in that at all. It was a process issue (a real one that hurt Billet, I detail this further in my initial response). But it isn't "the main point".

The main point, for me, is the issue I noticed (and so did Linus, to some extent) long before the GN video: quality is lacking. A few WANs ago he talked about some kind of "bug bounty for viewers" because he knew that they kept messing up. It focused more on stuff like "misremembering a part of a display specification" or smth like that, rather than "not noticing a 300% performance deviation in a test", but there was some awareness. Yet, these issues have been going on for years, at a frequency (even accounting for the rate of publication) exceeding peers (at least the ones I watch, I have dropped subs before due to frustration with misinformation, notably jayztwocents). Their solution has been "we don't need one", and production has continued at a breakneck pace, and errors are missed or fixed in post. Again, my original comment details this further, but my point to be made here is "this is the main problem, priority on speed/volume over quality, even when shifting focus to a labs-centric, data-forward branding of content".
 
That is what the focus should be. The interview videos said it all right to the leadership's faces. They are moving too fast. But that hasn't been talked about. Linus has responded to easy, irrelevant stuff and shifted the discussion to pointless internet bickering, but hasn't addressed my concern as a longtime viewer: that I can't watch LTT videos with the intent to get technical information. I've long since classified LTT/LMG as "just for entertainment and product discovery". That is what I want Linus (and everyone else) to be talking about.

This topic will likely be locked/deleted but I want to make sure anybody reading this understands LMG is more than just Linus. If you want to buy the products, buy the products. If you want to still consume their content, do so. There are 100+ other non-Linus people working for LMG that likely are not part of the core issues being addressed right now.
