Watching a recent video of @LinusTech and saw two rings on both "ring fingers".   do we know why?  is Linus more hip than we / I think he is?

always look in the background of every picture you get.  at times, the real topic is in the background than the topic being discussed.

Maybe he likes symmetry in case they ever need to flip (mirror) a shot in post, though I don't think they ever do that. I saw a B grade horror movie where the character had a cast on a broken leg, but because they used so many mirrored shots the leg it appeared to be on kept changing. It was really distracting. If he had a cast on both legs it wouldn't have been a problem. 😛

 

Though, I do wonder if it's an NFC ring. I think LMG uses NFC badges for building access so it wouldn't surprise me if he was wearing an NFC ring for convenience.

 

Or maybe he just likes wearing jewelry. He does have a couple of ear piercings as well.

I do not think this is the case.  that type of ring means something IMO.

BOYS CAN HAVE PRETTY THINGS TOO YA KNOW.

My GF has several rings because she just enjoys the way they look. One is from me with a special inscription and the others are just cause.
