Linus on November 2021 Issue of GQ British Edition

tridy

Wow! You go Linus! No offense intended, but, I believe that  is the most 'manly' picture of you I have ever seen! You look twenty years older! I guess working hard enough to be  successful takes it's toll.

 

Seriously, I have watched you since the NCIX days and have seen some of the hard work you have put into becoming the success that LTT has become. You work hard and are good to your people. You are a good guy Linus and you deserve what you have. Keep up the good work!

 

The computer isn't the "Thing".....the computer is the "Thing" that gets you to the "Thing".  - excerpt from "Halt and Catch Fire".

It would be funny if they got all of him in the picture including his sandals. 😄

Awww Linus didn't tell them my fan interaction story! 

 

When I was younger, maybe junior high, I got roped into watching my 3 month old brothers PC while he got queued for a new GPU. So there I am, sitting in the waiting area of a hardware store with his PC, and who walks in but Linus Sebastian!

I was nervous as fuck, and just kept looking at him as he read a magazine and waited, but didn't know what to say. Pretty soon though the PC started to coil whine, and I'm trying to quiet it down because I didn't want it to bother Linus, but it just wouldn't stop. Pretty soon he gets up and walks over. He started running his hands through the cables and asking what was wrong. I replied that it was probably under clocked or something. So, Linus put down his magazine, picked up my PC, he overclocked it right there in the middle of a hardware store. Chill guy, really nice about it.

I live in the UK, and am happy to mail you a copy if you'd like to the office?

I wonder why they would make an article about you without contacting you. Seems odd.
