According to Billet themselves, they heard nothing about compensation or payback until about 3 hours after the original GN video went live.. Which Billet hadnt even replied to before Linus made his post saying they've already made the deal on compensation.

How am I supposed to go on using that shit?

Lmao. I keep forgetting they sell merch. I refuse to buy merch from those guys. They've come across like a bunch of Windows gamers who built a bunch of gaming PCs and then became self proclaimed tech experts and started a YouTube channel.

Yes, I know Linus worked at NCIX and has memorized a lot of product numbers, but that means nothing.

Where you see his true (lack) of expertise is in the storage server failure video and all the Linux stuff he did.

He got mad that Linux was outside of his Windows power-user comfort zone and crapped all over Linux to make himself feel better.

He's a tool.
