Any primary school math textbook will do as a source and tell you not all rectangles are squares, even if a square is a rectangle.
- Comment on Microsoft is making every Windows 11 PC an AI PC 1 day ago:
I’m not sure what your point is. There are many people that like AI but don’t like Copilot.
- Comment on Microsoft is making every Windows 11 PC an AI PC 1 day ago:
There is a vast difference between people using/liking AI and people using/liking Copilot.
- Comment on Tragic Titan submersible’s $62 SanDisk memory card found undamaged at wreckage site 2 days ago:
The marketing is more for the submersible camera that survived, just like it was designed to do, the SD card was just inside the camera and no water even touched it. I don’t think the SD card should be getting any credit.

- Comment on Tesla reintroduces 'Mad Max' Full Self-Driving mode that breaks speed limits 3 days ago:
So what? Them driving is not relevant to this at all. The idea is that the cars they sell become illegal.
- Comment on New California law requires AI to tell you it’s AI 1 week ago:
It could be a feature of web browsers. Images would get some icon indicating the valid signature, just like browsers already show the padlock icon indicating a valid certificate. So everybody would be seeing the verification.
But I don’t think it’s a good idea, for other reasons.

He’s actually super nice in person, only plays a character of an asshole for the show.
- Comment on Google Confirms Non-ADB APK Installs Will Require Developer Registration 1 week ago:
Yeah, you absolutely can, and without needing root or anything.
- Comment on Apple has REMOVED the ICEBlock app from the App Store due to “objectionable content.” 2 weeks ago:
Yes, and then they ban that developer and their apps. It doesn’t matter you can install apps outside of the Play Store, if Google still controls which apps you are allowed to install.
- Comment on Google says adblockers caused YouTube views count to drop - this is what adblockers told us really happened 3 weeks ago:
Some people might care about supporting the creators they enjoy by having their view count. If it looks like nobody is watching, then that doesn’t fare well for the creator, even if in reality they have a viewership that’s invisible.
- Comment on "Very dramatic shift" - Linus Tech Tips opens up about the channel's declining viewership 1 month ago:
Sounds correct, he only acknowledged it in private by responding to the email.
- Comment on "Very dramatic shift" - Linus Tech Tips opens up about the channel's declining viewership 1 month ago:
3 years later
The WAN ship with the plagiarized segment aired on September 16, 2022 GN wrote to LTT about the plagiarism on September 21, 2022 The pinned comment was published on September 21, 2022, less than an hour later
Please give me some dates because I really can’t see where the 3 years are coming from.
- Comment on "Very dramatic shift" - Linus Tech Tips opens up about the channel's declining viewership 1 month ago:
That’s fair, but you also have to consider Louis is a friend of Gamer’s Nexus who had a lot of conflict with LTT, and so isn’t an objective party. I would much rather listen to the opinion of a third party.
- Comment on "Very dramatic shift" - Linus Tech Tips opens up about the channel's declining viewership 1 month ago:
So LTT apologized and gave GN credit only after GN made it public and that’s not proof?
Yeah, it is proof that Linus acknowledged it. Of course it was too late and he didn’t do enough about it, but that was never in question.
Linus said he’d fix it. GN thanked him for quick action but 3 years later LTT still hadn’t done anything.
All I see in the email is that Linus said he will speak with the writers to not forget citations again and put up a pinned comment, which he did, and GN thanked him for it. I don’t see GN requesting any other action in the email. That’s definitely not “hadn’t done anything”. It’s not enough, but again that was never in question.
- Comment on "Very dramatic shift" - Linus Tech Tips opens up about the channel's declining viewership 1 month ago:
You: Quote Me: The quote is not backed by any proof You: The quote is from the article
Where else would it be from and how is that relevant?
- Comment on "Very dramatic shift" - Linus Tech Tips opens up about the channel's declining viewership 1 month ago:
Well, if that happened, no such emails are in the GN response.
- Comment on "Very dramatic shift" - Linus Tech Tips opens up about the channel's declining viewership 1 month ago:
The email says they could keep it for further testing, not sell it.
No, the email says they said they could keep it, with no qualifiers, because they thought it would be for further testing, but didn’t tell anyone that’s their expectation.
- Comment on "Very dramatic shift" - Linus Tech Tips opens up about the channel's declining viewership 1 month ago:
According to your source they replied and acknowledged the plagiarism 34 minutes after being notified by GN. I have no clue where you are getting 3 years.
- Comment on "Very dramatic shift" - Linus Tech Tips opens up about the channel's declining viewership 1 month ago:
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.
- Comment on "Very dramatic shift" - Linus Tech Tips opens up about the channel's declining viewership 1 month ago:
All correct, and not conflicting with what I said. For the avoidance of doubt here is the email where Billet Labs confirmed they told then they could keep it: imgur.com/a/mF2tz4J
Then they changed their mind, and your timeline follows.
- Comment on "Very dramatic shift" - Linus Tech Tips opens up about the channel's declining viewership 1 month ago:
I’m literally quoting GN, who said “quick action”, what can I tell you. You can disagree that it was quick action, but you are not disagreeing with me, you are disagreeing with GN.
- Comment on "Very dramatic shift" - Linus Tech Tips opens up about the channel's declining viewership 1 month ago:
Billet Labs explicitly said in the email that “you could keep it”. They changed their mind later, after it was sold already.
- Comment on "Very dramatic shift" - Linus Tech Tips opens up about the channel's declining viewership 1 month ago:
Yeah, that’s what I’m basing what I said on. You can see GN thanking Linus for quick action, and being understanding that an inexperienced writer could make such a mistake.
- Comment on "Very dramatic shift" - Linus Tech Tips opens up about the channel's declining viewership 1 month ago:
The one Billet Labs confirmed they were never supposed to return and the whole thing was a misunderstanding (again, according to Billet Labs), that one?
- Comment on "Very dramatic shift" - Linus Tech Tips opens up about the channel's declining viewership 1 month ago:
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.
- Comment on "Very dramatic shift" - Linus Tech Tips opens up about the channel's declining viewership 1 month ago:
I did too, until many of the accusations, like the Billet Labs thing, turned out to be false later.
- Comment on "Very dramatic shift" - Linus Tech Tips opens up about the channel's declining viewership 1 month ago:
Never acknowledged it? He immediately put a pinned comment attributing Gamers Nexus when notified of it, and GN thanked him for it, which any reasonable person would take as him being happy with the resolution.
- Comment on "Very dramatic shift" - Linus Tech Tips opens up about the channel's declining viewership 1 month ago:
Which turned out to be false, and Billet Labs confirmed it was always the agreement that they were not supposed to return it.
- Comment on "Very dramatic shift" - Linus Tech Tips opens up about the channel's declining viewership 1 month ago:
Yeah, the videos are entertainment. When looking for actual technical information, they release it in text form: www.lttlabs.com
