You should see the shitshow when he tries to use Linux. It’s astounding someone that uses a computer can be so fucking inept. Pretty sure it’s all an act to further shit on opensource, which surely won’t pay the bills for them.
Comment on LMG has made a response video to Gamers Nexus' concerns

Wait, so people used to take this guy seriously? I watched a review he did on some sim racing gear a few years back and it was obvious the guy didn’t google even the most basic advice on how to set up a sim rig properly.

yeah the linux videos were when I first noticed their lack of research, I always suspected it, but the linux videos made it obvious. Linus did absolutely NO research and put no critical thinking in those videos whatsoever

There is no way to set up a sim rig properly. No matter what you do it would still barely feel nothing like real driving, nevermind racing.

Well yea, same with the old mechanical keyboard video, but their new Mechanical Keyboard video is pretty well researched.

I knew he was full of shit, because hell talk about really complicated things like ram timing like he’s an expert, then when he tries to use Linux, a package manager is too complex for him and he becomes less tech savvy than my 75 year old mom, so its pretty obvious he knows nothing when he’s not being feed answers by some marketing goon

This is so amusing to me, because I had no idea who this Linus was - I was only somewhat familiar with Linus Torvald of Linux fame. I looked up last night just to check that the old Linux nerd wasn’t running around stealing water coolers and such.
Extra funny to see a comment the next morning that this Linus knows zero about Linux.

My impression was that the linux video was meant to be more of a vlog “Watch Linus Do Something” style and not a researched video. And its obvious that he would know very little about an operating system he has never used before.
thann@lemmy.world 1 year ago
it was a different style video, but he had used linux before.
he even knew he should use the package manager, but for some reason didnt ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
