News from Gamers Nexus. Including some part about the response from Linus regarding the previous video. Linus really likes to jump the gun and digging holes for himself.

I’ve called this since the backpack warranty debacle. Linus needs to be pulled back to earth or risk having LTT lose their credibility.

There's credibility in the first place? O_o I always assumed it's like Top Gear for cars; it's entertainment for younger people of its time.

I liked their budget build guides, it provided me with a baseline list of components depending on my available budget for the build. I’ve also based some of my decision regarding setting up my house networking from their videos.

TL:DR On this backpack warranty thing? I keep reading comments mentioning it, but I am not aware of what happened.

[–] sheogorath@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

LTT made a 250 USD backpack. When people asked about the warranty, Linus basically said “trust me bro” and mocked people who voiced their concerns of buying a brand new quite expensive backpack without any warranty.
