It wasn't planned to just be given to them. It was always a prototype sent to them for sponsoring purposes. Then they dunked on it and auctioned it. If it was a misunderstanding it was an egregious misunderstanding. Though they also enormously misunderstood a mouse in another tech review and never took off the cover while complaining of trash tracking (because they didn't take off the cover at the bottom!).
That said, this was all two years ago. Not sure what stirred things up in January.

it figures you would be OK with that, since you were OK with the sexual harassment. what's a little theft when you've already dismissed unwanted sexual contact, amiright?
the reason I'm still talking with you is because I want to demonstrate to everyone one of the other controversies around LTT, that being the toxic fanbase that's as rabid as Elon's or Trump's. and you played along fantastically, dutifully playing the part of fanboy for everyone to see. so for that, I thank you.
but now that you've done your job and played your role, I don't have any further use for you, so ta-ta and farewell!

Not going to take a side here, but the fact you said “you were OK with the sexual harassment”, when the other commenter said nothing as such, does not show that you are arguing in good faith.
_cryptagion@anarchist.nexus 3 weeks ago
they dismissed the allegations because a group LTT paid to look into it said nothing happened. so yeah they absolutely said they were OK with sexual harassment. I'm not going to argue this with you, either, because I am not interested in whatever rationalization for sexual harassment you've prepared.

Wow, well now I know for sure you are not arguing on good faith. Have a nice day.
