In-case you didn’t know, Linus Sebastian of LTT media made a video with Linus Torvalds. If you watched the video, what are your thoughts?

BTW, he uses Fedora.

    He’s an immature man-child.

    He does not handle being told he’s wrong very well. Granted, the people he surround himself with are no different. LTT was promoting take science products (aka scams) and when got called out on it by an actual scientist, lashed out.

    The warranty for his (I think it was a) backpack, was trust me bro.

    Until it was constantly complained about in comment sections, he would “joke” (as the then CEO) of firing people.

      To be fair, the warranty was proposed to be “trust me bro”, the community very much didn’t like that, so it actually came with a real warranty when it launched. So it never actually happened.

        Or at least he actually applied a real warranty then. It shouldn’t have taken people telling him that was a terrible idea for him to do that. But good to hear that people that buy at least got a real warranty.

          Yeah, he was stupid to have that idea. But nobody was actually wronged in the end.
