    “items that start out as we don’t need it back and then turn into a loan later on”

    just had to get that last little snipe in there …

      That’s exactly what happened.

      It was “keep it for further testing” before it got reamed with poor review, and then it was “ok send it back then”.

        didn’t qualify as a review much less a “poor review” – lose the provided graphics card, proceed to munge the cooler onto an unrelated card, complain when it doesn’t fit, blast it as a garbage product that no one should ever buy

          Yeah and if they’re going to mess it up that much the company might just take it back and send it to GamersNexus for a real review.

        “Poor review” is putting it lightly after how dirty they did that card. They probably wanted it back to give to someone to do an actual, fair review of.

        Also, they were told they could keep it for further testing, but not that they could keep it forever or as a gift. That LTT auctioned the prototype that definitely still belonged to Billet Labs was plain irresponsible.

          Yeah that what I mean, GamersNexus would have given it a fair review and not done an absolute ballsup of the process.

          And yeah, if they weren’t intending to test further it should have just been sent back.

            Exactly. Linus seems to interpret their conversation as though Billet were going to let them keep it forever.

            It seemed to me much more like, “We don’t urgently need this back, so feel free to run more tests if you want”

            Which turned into, “Oh, you shit all over our product and refuse to do more testing? Can we get it back then please?”

    What do we learned today children?

    “Empty words = empty head”. Or “There are no truth behind someone whom delivers nothing else than emotions and victimism.”

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Following a 10-day pause to evaluate its processes, Sebastian said the company held meetings with team members to “dig through every misstep” and identify “communication and … teamwork challenges” that resulted in accusations of LMG’s quality issues.

    He added that the company will no longer insist on uploading videos daily and will slow down to verify its content is accurate.

    Sebastian did not directly address sexual harassment allegations recently levied by a former employee, Madison Reeve.

    He says the company now has a system for tracking the status of products provided to LMG to avoid future confusion regarding “items that start out as we don’t need it back and then turn into a loan later on.”

    Later in the video, Sebastian talked about the company’s benefits, highlighting team outings, holiday parties, and internal giveaways.

    We’ve reached out to Linus Media Group for additional comment but did not receive a response by press time.

      Wow, they started inventorizing products after only 17 years in operations. Highly efficient!

        It’s not going to be done properly now either because it will be dumped on someone that is barely keeping up with their work load as is.

    I want to believe but I don’t understand how Linus could give such bad responses.

    Did he only read the comments from the GN video, instead of watching it?? :/
