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.
I mean, let's be clear, Linus knows wtf he's talking about. He recognizes obscure parts on sight and generally has a deep understanding of tech from years of experience with it.
Doesn't excuse the shitty behavior, but get real with this hot take.
Well I watched his Linux videos and to any mildly experienced GNU/Linux user he was laughable in that video, but not in a funny way, I pitied him for his lack of understanding combined with his usual stubbornness.
To anyone who may read this comment as overly critical or unfair. It is not. It is apt.
