What's the context? I don't know this story.

They made a pc build video which was bad. Lots of bad stuff in it which you shouldn't do when building a pc, sort of stuff which would make common sense not to do. It got ripped to shreds by other YouTubers who did their own videos about it.

Probably still all on YouTube.

Someone from The Verge made a bad PC assembly video and it became a running gag to dunk on them for it. Apparently the guy did another video with LTT explaining what happened: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QKzmYsySGFQ

Jokes aside, The Verge is alright as tech journalism goes.
