Linus is so wrong here.

“I expressed my disappointment that he didn’t go through proper journalistic practices in creating this piece. He has my email and number (along with numerous other members of our team) and could have asked me for context that may have proven to be valuable”

It’s exactly the opposite, by not giving Linus a preview of the material, and allowing him input on it. Steve has secured the journalistic integrity of the content.

Linus had a chance to address the content publicly and is opting not to do it.

“Most of what I have to say, I’ve already said, and I’ve done so privately.”

He clearly thinks we are not worth keeping informed so I’m going to be unsubscribing and no longer consuming any LTT content.

Overall this response sucks. No accountability, plenty of deflection and missing the point. Vague talk of being more accurate in the future, so I’m supposed to just wait and consume inaccurate content in the mean time? No thanks.

By the time this game hits the market it’s target audience will be significantly diminished by having passed away from natural causes.

They will sleep just fine in their mansions tonight.

Exclusive broadcast rights will cease to be a thing when consumers stop participating and watching these broadcasts, but most are unwilling to cease consuming the content long enough to have an impact on the bottom line which is the only thing they care about.

What’s crazy to me is that they aren’t even asking for that many!

And the reason is exactly what you’d expect, cost cutting.

“Over the past six years, America’s major freight carriers have shed 30 percent of their employees.”

Notice what?

Wonder if phone manufacturers will fragment their offerings to satisfy EU requirements or if we’ll all end up with removable batteries.

I can see your point. But I’m the end Linus is still saying he’s not going to answer to anyone publicly including his audience, he can do better. The rest of the statement is awful as well.

Good riddance?

Ditto, if I can’t even tell what the video will be about from the title OR the thumbnail I’m not watching it.

It feels like the will of the majority of US citizens is getting lost. The supreme court should be following legal precedent and if an issue can’t be solved that way or would be better suited for a vote then, a popular vote should decide major issues facing us, the citizens.
