    Nor is it my job to prove yours, however I know yours is full of misleading claims that hold no evidence of proof, while I may not have proof to disprove yours at hand because the internet is full of misinformation on this topic, I however know for a fact you'll never find proper proof so therefore no one who every claims such as you do will ever attempt to prove me wrong because they know they can't. So yes that's how it works, you prove me wrong by proving all those supposed "sources" are genuinely true lol... The internet is in your favor on this after all so why wouldn't you try? Maybe because it's not and everything you know is misinformation aka a lie?

    My Bunny kind of wound up in my care when my sister moved out, so I never really had a bunny-safe environment set up for her. 
     
    Should've seen the bunny bully our chihuahua though. Funniest thing ever. The bunny reveled having someone lower than itself on the food chain.

    Just because you think it's not doesn't mean it's not. Someone who smokes may think it's not bad for their health does that mean it's not? There are far better options out there. Plus you are only a single person out of nearly 8 billion, and if you read books more often then most people reading before going to bed for you is doing is exactly what you stated not to get yourself into a state of sleep but into a state of relaxation which reading books have been known to do regardless of time of day, fyi you are not slowing your mind, your brain still has to process what you are reading else they become meaningless words and that's when you forget what you just read almost instantly; and why studying before bed for many is a very bad idea.
     
     
    I was going to waste my life in proving both of you wrong, but then I realized my time is worth more than arguing with you, so I tell you what, you prove me wrong. Prove to me that reading is actually good for you before bed. Key words are BEFORE and BED, we all know the advantages of reading, however good luck on finding a non-sponsored paper talking about reading before bed.
    Here's a good example of taking research papers out of context and what makes you think reading before bed is a good idea, which sums up 99% of the internet really...

    However if you spend a few minutes and actually research some of the claims all they have done is added "before bed" or alike when the research never stated it specifically possibly never even mentioning it once (like the Ken Hugh brainpower section).
     
    So you believe your carrot munching improves your eyes claims for books and sleep, and I'll live in reality ok? Yes I know carrots have said benefits but not to the extent that was enforced on us, same with books and reading before bed. Like I said it's not bad as in it'll kill you but it's equally something that should be a choice not forced upon.
     
    Equally look for 39% in the mentioned page, that is the number who read books before bed claiming they sleep very well, have no way to prove this as the PDF is dead, but lets put that into context shale we? That means 61% who read before bed it either makes no (or worst) difference to just below whatever is the definition of "very well" is, aka as in most people DO NOT really benefit from reading before bed, but instead if that's the only time they read books are in fact killing a very useful habit for mental health and wellbeing!
     
    Simply put prove me wrong that reading books are not good for you for sleep, not make you stupid or kill you bad but not a very good choice compared to other solutions. Reading before bed was/is also a trick for parents to get their kids to read.
     
    This is me right now sitting in front of my computer or phone till I need to go to bed, I'm also surrounded by LED lights lol... Eye strain can be bad at times but next to that I don't have a hard time sleeping. Tbh afaik only reason why watching TV is bad for you is because you are basically doing nothing for the content and likely munching on something other than carrots. Same reason why technically speaking playing games is also unhealthy/bad for you if not under self discipline.

    Egg-Roll got a reaction from Symion in Linus tech tips "pirating" OCCT - answer from the dev [Reddit thread]   
    I'm sorry but YOU are wrong. That 30 days is for trial use only not to install for test benching purposes, while you can technically extend or find ways around it you would be effectively using the software outside of the terms of the trial version of the software. Linus clearly doesn't use Windows for trial purposes therefore he should purchase a license in that case.
     
    So you are a hypocrite then as mentioned by the guy in the very video you posted?
     
    Also using said program for such purposes as LMG does is likely against the terms of the program itself.
     
    Just because Microsoft doesn't care doesn't mean Linus shouldn't either and continue said practices. My Windows XP Pro key became a unlimited activation after the 3rd time and a quick email chat with MS, I'm sure they are more than happy to do the same with Linus... It's not like Linus is poor, he can afford the key...

    Working on the tech doesn't make you a knowledgeable person about it lol... So yeah not very relevant...
    Here I'll prove it:
    https://web.archive.org/web/20151130212029/http://www.linusmediagroup.com/history/
    enthusiast can mean many things, but it doesn't make you knowledgably or accurate. Being an enthusiast could be what I do which is build my own computers helping others with various issues etc, but never dab into the technical aspects of said products, therefore knowledge can be very limited.
     
    Sales Rep aka numbers mater more than knowledge, like I said being knowledgeable doesn't make the company money, selling the most profitable items within the persons budget does. All a sales rep needs to know is this in a tech store: AMD socket for AMD processors same for Intel, RAM version for the board in question, and CD/HDD connection types (at that time IDE was slowly dying but still a thing). You know, the information on the box, quick google search etc. Simple things, minimal knowledge required.
     
    High end systems designer, aka PC builder, aka someone who can screw screws insert things into sockets, design and maximize the profits within the clients budgets while making everything work and the company mad money. This only needs basic knowledge of computer building and know how to read the QVL, you know something that common home PC builders do, but on a daily bases. You don't need to know much more than a home builder who has built at least 1 computer to do this job.
     
    Product/Category Manager, oh boy these are fun ones... You don't need to know jack shit for these jobs, you just need to know how to do your job, experience in the industry is a huge advantage however, but knowledge can be basic... You need to know what products sell, what don't and what are needed to be kept in stock regardless of sales numbers (like thermal paste). You don't need to understand the tech side of things you don't need to know anything specific outside of what a sales rep does (beneficial, but really not needed) about said products (as in you don't want to stock Intel chips and AMD boards only), your main goal here is to make the company money by maximizing shelf space with the most profitable products that have a high (or as high as possible) turnaround time. Don't know what a turnaround time is? It's the timeframe of how long it takes to cycle said products stock so something that sells once a month has a low turnaround and you may not want to stock much of it if at all (special orders exist as warehouse space is cheaper than the storefronts), whereas something that sells daily has a high turnaround, you want most of your store with a proper mixture of both that brings in the most amount of money with minimal waste. Simply put you need to know what your market will buy and stock that at prices that will sell and make the company money, someone with 0 tech knowledge can do these jobs.
     
    Simply put working at a computer parts store doesn't make you knowledgeable regardless of time and position there, it just makes you a good business person if you have high sales numbers and go up the ranks like Linus did. Did he learn a thing or 2 from working there about computers? Sure most likely, but not the amount that people keep claiming, he likely learned far more about how to not run a business by working for NCIX (esp his last year or 2) than learning about computers and the tech inside them. If he learned way more than what is logical it was via self improvement and not on the job, but once again that then has nothing to do with where one works but everything to do with how one spends their time off from work. Linus during his downtime at NCIX was likely doing other things more than looking at spec sheets about Intel's latest greatest architecture, like oh idk pushing products up front on the shelves to make them look full, restocking etc. You know the basics of working at any B&M storefront... The company doesn't care about spec sheets, they care about sales and what the store looks like and likely expect you do other things instead.
     
    Also FYI Linus was a floor sales man, he didn't just jump into some of the highest positions within the company by Thanos snapping his fingers as a College dropout 🤣 Maybe read up on your history before making bold claims, also even at those positions you are still a sales person esp if staffing is short that day, my local CC I see the supervisor all the time on the floor helping customers, regardless of position you are still a sales person in those stores, unless you sit your ass in a office all day and never leave.

    buddy that isn't how everyone learns, there are at least 2 types of learning study and hands on... Give me a book with stuff in it about almost anything and I'll literally ask you if you want me to beat you over the head with it, instead of reading it trying to understand it. Equally no script one takes? Sure, maybe on camera, but realistically? Do you think someone even Linus would really walk in knowing little to F all about what they intend to talk about and do a one take video? If you believe that I have prime swamp land that you can build the 55 million dollar mansion (I'll literally pay for it, even tho I don't have swamp land nor the money) you want on it and it wont sink, EVER! If you somehow have proof of your claims of him not practicing pre-recording from his past videos please do display evidence, creeper/stalker, because realistically that's the only way you would know if he just walked in front of a camera yoloing the video.
     
    I remember some of his old videos they had notes on paper, he would review them likely beforehand as well, nothing with his videos were YOLO outside of live stream, but even those had a goal and talking points.
     
    TL;TR is anyone who has done business, sales, or marketing (you clearly haven't) knows the best person to present shit is the one who can remember the shit that needs to be presented with or (best) without notes or key points written down, and can present it in a fashion that people will be willing to listen to. So sure he one took videos with or without notes, but don't fool yourself he was prepared before that record button was hit, most informed? No, but prepared to the best of his abilities? Yes. The point is because he can confidentially speak in a single take even back then doesn't mean he knew his stuff, let alone remember it now. No one I repeat NO ONE who took/takes YouTube seriously has ever walking in front of a camera (or mic) and spewed what they knew without preplanning to some degree, well at least channels like LTT etc. Gaming and alike channels frequently YOLO their stuff then once popular they start tuning their videos for views, you can see this with channels like GreyStillPlays where a few years ago he would randomly play games to preselected ones that have proven best for content and fast to produce with lots of personal stuff being left out. Another is lets game it out, tho he is more freelancing his videos, but he still has a plan/goal in mind.

    Egg-Roll got a reaction from LAwLz in Linus tech tips "pirating" OCCT - answer from the dev [Reddit thread]   
    Yes, but in order to prove you bought the product (aka not stealing) you would need to activate the license correct? Linus doesn't do this. So how can you or I say he actually owns a key for his test benches?
     
    Yes, but in that case he should have stated he has corporate licensing, which he hasn't, remember if he doesn't say it chances are he doesn't have it knowing him, don't assume he is playing fair because he clearly doesn't.
     
    Yes and no, you are still required by Microsoft to activate your key asap, equally if MS wanted to be pricks about it every third build they could demand payment of a new key correct? Once again if he had corporate licensing he should have just stated so, but the fact he hasn't means he is either abusing the single key (as in how many windows installs does he actually have with that key on drives, they don't have to be simultaneously on, it's still a violation of use) which is against MS's terms of sale for the key, or he doesn't own a key for the benches, which is more likely based on his past behaviors.

    Except they are not testing the new hardware for windows compatibility but using windows to test the hardware with software therefore, they are misusing the trial version of Windows at said time.
     
    Once again just because they don't care doesn't mean he shouldn't. Equally just because they don't care doesn't mean he didn't break any laws.
    With that logic running a red light in front of a cop going to bank robbery would be perfectly legal even if you ran over 5 pedestrians and kept driving doing so... Simply put just because it's not enforced doesn't mean it's right, or not illegal. That's not how the law works, everyone including me break some sort of law on a daily bases since we are not perfect, but just because said laws are not enforced (or frequently) doesn't mean our actions are not illegal.
     
    Right, so why doesn't Linus do this? One time fee call when their system demands it done. That way he can say gtfo to everyone MS has been paid and is fine with it. Simple right? Apparently not.

    In Canada (if done right) this is actually a non-issue.

    Canadian laws are not 100% equal to the USA, anther weird one is typically (while still illegal) one can download/view "pirated" content without consequences (massive *, you can get blacklisted from internet providers etc), however what can be pursued is uploading/sharing content illegally (like Linus's Plex with Luke). In other words say something comes of the Plex thing Luke would likely be in the clear, Linus? He's basically boned.
     
    I think he only keeps you around for the Lawlz to be truthful 😜 All seriousness how he has acted some times I'm going to be perfectly honest I'm surprised he hasn't banned people who appose him and his agenda (frequently)... He does own this place after all and everything we type so...

    Egg-Roll got a reaction from Just that Mario in This Should be Illegal… Battery Repair Blocking   
    I'm going to point out the hypocrisy here...
     
    In this video he basically said removable phone batteries can't handle the future and are bulky which both are lies, sealing up phones are just simply cheaper and better for their bottom line in both manufacturing cost and obsolescence.
     
    Linus can't bring up a issue for one product and ignore the biggest issue out there that is far worst of an issue than camera batteries.
    So I have a question for LTT, when are you going to start talking about the non-(self)repairable status of our cell phones? You know the units we all own at least one of? The units that get thrown away possibly improperly (actually likely in many places) in the millions per year?

    Nice selective hearing you have there!
    I even created a topic here shortly after calling him out on his bold faced lies too and wouldn't you know it he didn't even acknowledge his mistake.
     
    However it isn't moving backwards now is it? It would be moving forward with user reparability in mind. Equally by claiming going backwards he is in fact condoning the unfreindly nature of non-removable batteries. He said himself these exact words which are I'll repeat again a bold faced lie:
     
    So I'll break this down for you, he said backwards already covered that, he then said they are bulkier I also covered that. Then he said sleek and animoji, first I proved at the time of the publishing sleek is a lie, and second he is inferring that all replaceable battery phones are incapable with animoji, well for one obviously it's a Apple thing... For 2 WHAT? No it doesn't the limitation is not the backing of the phone or user friendly replaceable batteries, that's 100% BS my phones backing is plastic it's not melted so tell me what's the difference? IP rating? Yea the S5 proved that is also possible. Finally that last part he is clearly on the side of throw away tech with the "need to be replaced every couple of years", and now somehow when everyone is talking about needless e-waste he "magically" turns around? People don't change like that.
     
    Oh for your "tightly built" nonsense the V30 for LG proved that wrong, and every time Jerry tears down a phone proves you wrong as well most of the time. The battery is isolated in the phone for stupidly obvious safety reasons, non-removable batteries is simply put fear mongering with IP rating and profiting from people who don't want to bother with dismantling their phones or getting others to do it for them.
     
    FYI my current plastic backed phone is 8.8mm without a case. vs my last replaceable phone the Stylo 3+ of 7.4. Battery size difference? 400mah and that's NOT including the camera bump as it really should. So CLEARLY there is some lying going on here, phones are NOT thinner because they no longer have removable batteries but in fact they are thicker or as thick (S21+ is 8.7mm) as their removable counter parts... Besides we all hate the camera bumps right? Removable batteries fix that issue with Linus's logic.
     
    Simply put do your own research into a matter instead of believing someone who clearly has an agenda to uphold.

    Egg-Roll got a reaction from kumicota in Linus tech tips "pirating" OCCT - answer from the dev [Reddit thread]   
    Mistakes happen? yes, but then why didn't he come forward to admit them then? Equally the point being is I just need to prove he wasn't being truthful about the facts stated, it takes 30 seconds to find information about any phone on the market and I just so happen to of been looking at those specific phones at the time. How reputable is a person is they can't spend even 30 seconds to fact check?
     
    Opinions rarely change that fast, and yes there is plenty to read between the lines. Tell me why is it he talks about RED batteries being unfriendly to users and not cellphones? Maybe because he simple doesn't care? Also before you bring in Frameworks that's just an investment that is making noise in a market that most people are getting fed up with in terms of reparability. WHAT bulkier phones? He coined that term along with phone makers, are you really that easily manipulated that you fall for such easy tricks? Oh you know what would really suck for you right now along with Linus? You are right they never made that claim, but they made the generic claim that all removable battery phones are bulkier than non-removable which is clearly a lie. Also yes a lie is even when you fail to do proper research and push it out as fact. If he hated anti right to repair wouldn't he have done something about it then, or even now? Makes you think doesn't it, if he didn't care about it back then and doesn't seem to care about it now, has he really changed?
     
    No he totally did when he said animoji machines implying such phones are now outdated as such a device could never handle it. It's a marketing ploy used by companies around the world to manipulate minds into thinking that the older units are now obsolete and you should run out and replace your bulker phones with these sleek new sexy animji ones.
     
    Ah yes because there isn't a GAPING HOLE WITH GAPS in every phone... However I'm guessing you are a person who is blind and therefore unable to see YouTube videos?
    Watch the video for some odd reason I can't upload a screenshot right now, but there is clearly a big enough gap with minimal work needed to make the batter replaceable even in said phone.
     
    Ah yes because Linus is perfect and therefore you should NEVER do your own research in to the said topic and believe everything he says...
    Reality check he is a human like you and me, except he makes money off of you and me therefore if telling a lie means a purchase (as mentioned failing to fact check is a lie when you push it as truth), he's likely going to do it.
     
    Thinness of a phone is all choices done by the manufacture, they can make user replaceable phones as thin as non units but why? That costs them more money and makes their phones have the ability to last longer than the 2-3 years currently, in other words more money for them more frequently, so there is no incentive for them to change. With people like you backing them up claiming there is basically no way it can ever happen (just like how EVs can never work back in the late 90's early 2000's) they see and feel no reason to change, because why would they?
     
    The Fairphone 4 is 10.5mm or about 2mm thicker than the S21 shown above, yet it has a user replaceable phone. You tell me is 2mm bulky? Will it break your pocket? Will it no longer fit in your hand? Will it make it uncomfortable to hold? Here I'll answer them for you because I know the answers: No, No, No, Not Likely.
    So you keep not doing your own research and believe whatever someone you trust as truth, and in doing so giving phone companies more money for a less user friendly phone.
    Jerry hasn't done his tear down of the S22 yet but someone has. All it takes is a little bit of engineering work (extra) to fix the few problems like ribbons etc but all in all a phone shouldn't get bulkier due to a replaceable battery.
     
    There are answers to everything in life, to ignore those answers is basically unwilling to learn.

    Nice selective hearing you have there!
    I even created a topic here shortly after calling him out on his bold faced lies too and wouldn't you know it he didn't even acknowledge his mistake.
     
    However it isn't moving backwards now is it? It would be moving forward with user reparability in mind. Equally by claiming going backwards he is in fact condoning the unfreindly nature of non-removable batteries. He said himself these exact words which are I'll repeat again a bold faced lie:
     
    So I'll break this down for you, he said backwards already covered that, he then said they are bulkier I also covered that. Then he said sleek and animoji, first I proved at the time of the publishing sleek is a lie, and second he is inferring that all replaceable battery phones are incapable with animoji, well for one obviously it's a Apple thing... For 2 WHAT? No it doesn't the limitation is not the backing of the phone or user friendly replaceable batteries, that's 100% BS my phones backing is plastic it's not melted so tell me what's the difference? IP rating? Yea the S5 proved that is also possible. Finally that last part he is clearly on the side of throw away tech with the "need to be replaced every couple of years", and now somehow when everyone is talking about needless e-waste he "magically" turns around? People don't change like that.
     
    Oh for your "tightly built" nonsense the V30 for LG proved that wrong, and every time Jerry tears down a phone proves you wrong as well most of the time. The battery is isolated in the phone for stupidly obvious safety reasons, non-removable batteries is simply put fear mongering with IP rating and profiting from people who don't want to bother with dismantling their phones or getting others to do it for them.
     
    FYI my current plastic backed phone is 8.8mm without a case. vs my last replaceable phone the Stylo 3+ of 7.4. Battery size difference? 400mah and that's NOT including the camera bump as it really should. So CLEARLY there is some lying going on here, phones are NOT thinner because they no longer have removable batteries but in fact they are thicker or as thick (S21+ is 8.7mm) as their removable counter parts... Besides we all hate the camera bumps right? Removable batteries fix that issue with Linus's logic.
     
    Simply put do your own research into a matter instead of believing someone who clearly has an agenda to uphold.
