You should watch Dr. Cutress' video on this.

Put yourself in their shoes. Think of everything that could actually go wrong if they made any sort of statement, tweet, post, whatever. Whatever they say at this point is going to never be enough for a very vocal part of the community (=haters).
You know what they are doing. They've said what's going on behind the scenes when they decided to halt for a bit. So sit down and find something else to complain about.
This is beginning to sound like drama queens running out of drama.

My god, imagine if they would post "No WAN show today" and then they would accidentally do a WAN show. The drama and outcry of all their haters would be unmeasurable...

Agreed. People jonesing for the next video and putting pressure on content content content, and quantity over quality, is:
what got us in this mess in the first place, and what everyone keeps blaming AAA game companies for doing, when they release half-baked major titles to meet an arbitrary corporate deadline. I often thought of this during many-a WAN show, when Linus rants randomly about some comment or chat he read and blows it up to high hell: Linus should stop paying too much attention to the vocal minority of nay-sayers and haters. These will always exist. There will always be people disagreeing with anything you do for whatever reason.
Just do your thing. Take your time. Everything will be alright, if your heart is in the right place.
 

Okey general consensus is there isn't an announcement yet so just wait and see, I agree that WAN MAY NOT be the best way to come back but they also need to still make revenue to pay staff. 
 
And which ever way they do decide to come back will not please everyone.

I just wanted to say, does anyone else miss them as much as I do? It's clear mistakes have been made but at no point did I ever stop believing in their mission. Thank you Linus, for being the bad ass that I trust to give me my tech news. I apologize for starting a new topic but I wanted to give you guys the praise you deserve. Internet drama can be ridiculous at times, so I needed to say, WE SUPPORT YOU.

If it is, the rest of the management team will be just off-camera with their fingers hovering over a big red MUTE button 😉

I'm not going to follow up with a volte-face into random misogyny like my compatriot upthread though. It's the small things you can be grateful for. 

If LMG needs more time to get their work processes and policies in place, then I'm all for it. It's ready when it's ready typically ends with better results, than trying to hit an arbitrary deadline

I feel like the longer LMG goes without posting new content could mean they are making more significant changes than they first anticipated. Hopefully we have a Wan Show this evening to restart things and bring us up to date. Today is what 10 days so we should be hearing something soon.

Because they want to distract from Ian Video that clearly showing mistake done by Steve in their video about LMG.
 
They cannot accept that Steve is being unethical in his video by omitting a lot of information and framing his oppinion as fact

but don’t you know that having a famous person not love the same things you do is unacceptable?  And with people mad at Linus now is the time to try and dog pile on with stupid stuff!  

Man, nobody cares about the stupid little linux challenge video. Don't you get it?

You just realized this now? This isn’t a Christian channel 💀 Who cares lol.

Did the big streaming providers provide a discount for the lack of content due to the WGA/SAG Strike? The answer is NO, in many cases they raised prices. Why should Floatplane discount services if other streaming providers are not? 

So at first you complain that I did not get the sentiment of your post and now you are saying that you do not want to clarify in a very condescending fashion. Fine, I think that concludes this episode. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Though I generally agree on the sentiment of improving, I fail to see the point behind a few of these...
This is completely out of proportion. It's indeed an issue with their internal communication procedures but the fact that something like this is being waved as tantamount to High Treason, while this is a miscommunication between two companies, is something I can't really get my head around. Put yourself in the same position, writing the same things, but replace LMG and Billet with, say, Asus and NVidia. Do you realize how utterly pointless that is? These are companies, people. They deal like companies deal and sometimes things go wrong. I'd really like to see this sort of discussion about why a certain graphics card only has 8 GB VRAM and none of the board partners seems in the least inclined in increasing this. For example. Would that generate the same amount of drama and outcry? Guess we'll never know.... Oh wait, we do know, cause that happened and no one batted an eye. And this is something that actually impacts many more consumers.
OK, you can argue that there is a "journalistic" and "review" aspect to the matter, that LMG's opinion matters, but that has nothing to do with the outcry I'm seeing. I didn't see any of this right after the video came out: only right now. And LMG, for better of worse, reacted immediately by taking a step back themselves. If anyone discussing this really cared, Linus should have heard about this back then, and not now.
...with what? What is actually your point and how would this change actually help anything to do with LMG? Seems like one of those things people are just throwing out into the discussion in order to say something, anything, though I fail to see the point.
This as well begs the questions: what's your point?
The question of perception goes out the window when a review/opinion is based on actual facts obtained in a scientific way. So I think that putting out a suspicion on LMG employees for the sake of who knows what is rather egregious as Dr. Cutress said, when the data and the open communication on both the product and said potential conflicts of interest should be sufficient for the public to form an informed decision.
 
This is true of manual benchmarking as well. WIth the very very big difference that, with manual benchmarking, the amount of manual steps and inputs is exponentially higher, also exponentially increasing the chance of human error. With automated benchmarking, the human factor comes into play mainly during review of the process, which is much easier to do. So automated processes are by definition more efficient and less prone to error.
