They switched their backend and you might need to clear your DNS cache in order for it to resolve properly

No no, they have proprietary methods of aggregating install data so they will know.

Depending on how long the backlash can stick around, I would expect to see it go down with a large exodus. In particular, if Microsoft gets upset about the impact it could have to gamepass. Unity does seem to be backtracking, but it really feels like they overextended on purpose to make the actual result feel less shitty

Yeah, I did read it. Doesn’t mean he didn’t know that there would be backlash

You think they just suddenly came up with this model? No shit they have to jump through hoops. That doesn’t stop them from doing it in advance of something like this

So he sells a bunch of shares right before the announcement that is likely going to tank their stock price

If we could only use some sort of… identifier to know when a game has been installed… like some kind of… serial number or key that is unique per copy…

The original announcement stated it was retroactive

I really like ORMs when they are well designed. With a bad API though, it hurts me to use them over a general query string.

I built a small driver for ArangoDB that just uses AQL behind the scenes because it’s so much easier to manage.

Now do one with a GI Joe PSA

Billet estimated the cost of the prototype to be $800. They never sent them a product.

Linus said “they agreed on compensation” and yet billet has stated they never responded to his offer, that he sent literal hours after GN posted the main video. Linus lied here. He can say he is compensating them all he wants, but there has not been any agreement made between the parties involved. They didn’t want payment, they wanted their fucking prototype back.

It’s not a water block that costs $800 though. It’s a prototype water block that they estimated the cost of producing to be around $800 given R&D, labor, materials, etc.

It was never meant to be a production ready product, and it should never have been treated as such.

The issue with the auction is due to the fact that they sent Billet numerous emails claiming to have prepared it to be shipped back, including one in which they said they would send tracking info shortly. They didn’t know it was being auctioned off until afterward. And Linus didn’t contact them about compensation until 3 hours after GNs video went live.

These are facts, backed by actual evidence which you can see for yourself in GNs latest HW news.

Right. Many are hitting with the “it should have been handled in private” line, and it’s kind of annoying. Journalists report on things, and GN did just that. Reported on an issue that has been gaining in public discussion over time. This deserved transparency, and I hope that having it put out there will help LMG/LTT fix their shit. I’m sure I can speak for most of us in saying that we WANT LMG/LTT to SUCCEED. We want to see them produce quality content. But they can’t do that with accurate information right now, despite their public desire to provide that.

LTT: says they want more accuracy, so they build a whole fucking lab for it.

Also LTT: puts bad data into the video anyway because time

That’s literally enough said. It’s not an attack on LMG, it’s pointing out legitimate concerns about LMGs internal processes because these easy to catch errors are getting through all the time.

They test a water block prototype on a card it wasn’t designed for, and then review it as a finished product with the bad data.

It’s a pattern over a long period of time that has been called out by the community. GN is fully right to be putting this out there. Even if you disagree with Steve’s assessment, he’s right to be pointing out things he has concerns with.

For sure.

E2E should never be broken by the 3rd party enabling the communication.

That would defeat the purpose

For those interested in seeing it in action

No, they shouldn’t.

That’s the end of the argument.

Hey fuck chairman tylo!

Well, it does stop the virus in some cases. In others, it provides a good boost to immune response when infected. This helped to keep a large majority of vaccinated individuals out of the hospital when they got it (including myself). As we continue to watch the virus mutate and gain better immune-evading features, the efficacy of the previous iterations of the vaccine wanes. On top of that, the immune boosting potential of the vaccine wanes over time, making it less effective after a period (hence boosters).

This is all vaccine 101, and if someone can’t or won’t understand the basics of vaccines and biology, they aren’t going to care about any of this.

Even worse, if they are maliciously fabricating information (i.e. vaccinated people dying more than they are, vaccine side effects a la vaers, etc) then you are just playing into their hand to increase engagement and get eye balls on their nonsense.
