Wait, so you want me to list maintainers of projects or something? Someone that isn’t well known?
I really have no idea what you’re asking for.
Linus has been pushing for Linux adoption for people outside of the community for some time now
Wouldn’t know. Don’t care.
He’s a lying cheating clown. Literally every single video, review, and product recommendation from LTT prior to the Gamers Nexus video about them is null and void. That means tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands (or more), of people made purchasing decisions based on bogus data.
Then there was the storage server video. That was basically using-a-porcelain-dinner-plate-to-hammer-a-nail levels of “expertise”.
I hear you on the frustration with the errors and the Billet Labs situation; those were legitimate issues. But I think there’s a difference between holding someone accountable and writing them off permanently.
The thing is, LMG did take concrete steps after the GN video:
They paused uploads for a week
Established an error-checking team (ECC squad)
Have been building out their lab infrastructure (their PSU testing and articles can be really neat)
Are they perfect now? No. But if we don’t acknowledge when people/companies make genuine efforts to improve, what’s the incentive for anyone to try?
I’m not saying you have to watch LTT or trust everything they say. But the “his opinion literally means nothing to me” stance feels pretty absolute for a situation where they’ve at least attempted course correction. Most of us have professional screw-ups we’ve learned from. I think the question is whether the response was adequate, not whether mistakes disqualify someone forever.
Don’t worry, I think I more or less got a sense of where you are really coming from. That you have no idea what I am asking for is a nail for the impression I got.
So you’re complaining that I downvote your comments? If people agree with what you say they’re free to upvote you. I happen to think you’re objectively wrong, so I downvote. I’m using the system as intended.
There are plenty of comments in the past where I upvote someone who has a genuine differing opinion on something, or where they show me that I’m wrong about something. You’re free to comb through my comment history if you like. But don’t claim to have “figured me out” because I don’t agree with you and downvoted your comments.
You must have me confused with a mirror. Do you normally go around spouting off what you are insecure about? I can confirm, you are right to feel so. And why do people like you always give away that it’s a game to you with whole “luck” line? Isn’t this the sort of stuff you keep resented up inside so people don’t become aware of how you see the world?
Lol, what are you on about? The “good luck” line is meant to be flippantly dismissive. As in “I keep prompting you to explain but you keep side-stepping” so now I’m done with you and the convo. It’s a direct way to signal that I no longer take you seriously. And after your last reply with your “resented up inside” line, I really don’t take you seriously.
And I’m surprised (but not really) that you didn’t look up and call out my “elephant hurling” comment, because I used that incorrectly on purpose. I did it to see if you’d even try to call me out, but you wouldn’t even do that. So whatevs. I am done with this convo.
Edit: autocorrect
Edit: downvoted you again just to ruffle your feathers

Do enlighten me
Let’s just say it’s from a mindset that downvotes every comment that replies to them.

Yeah, that must be it.
Alright, nice elephant hurling. Better luck next time.
