        Like I said I didn’t have time to list them as I am traveling looking at mobile to pass time. Since you are quick to judge, are you a Republican? :P

      Tbh, whether GN is right or not I do find his reporting practices kinda wack. Not asking for comment before a video is put out is disengenuous even if the response. Regardless of what a response to that would be I think it’s fair to ask for comment at least

        Previously they did reach out privately (like when LTT plagiarised GN) but after Linus said something negative about GN publicly unwarranted, they had a fallout and everything is done publicly now. Seems fair to me and he always reaches out to other companies first before making a report from what I can see. I don’t remember what the drama was about but something to do with testing a product when LTT made a mistake and got too defensive when they got called out.

        Edit: found a comment explaining that with bit more detail https://lemmy.zip/comment/13100245

              A lot of there claims were more like white lies. At one point they were sharing real concerns but now there channel is more about throwing people under the bus.

                His last article is as clear as it can be and it was a response, Linus started it. I am not sure what you are taking about, give some examples.

      Gamers nexus was easily proven wrong too. Trusting gamers nexus on anything these days is just gonna make you look bad. Steve has clearly no problem with attacking LTT no matter what he has to make up in order to do so. LTT aren’t saints, but they aren’t making up shit in order to attack other creators. It’s just not possible to trust GN to be proper journalists anymore.

        When was GN proven wrong and did they at least admit they where wrong? Everybody gets things wrong, it’s how often you’re wrong and how you handle being wrong that matters.

          The whole copper heatsink thing? Like literally all of it (like everything from that video, not just the heatsink) was immediately debunked and Steve did and said nothing to take back his comments. If I remember right he even doubled down, but I could be misremembering.

            Steve doubled down because he was sent the entire email exchange from the heatsink company and posted it as proof.

              And he once again didn’t bother to actually do any journalism and so turned out completely wrong. Why would you trust someone like that, that has shown time and time again they can’t actually do the one thing they claim their job is?

                A lawsuit would be needed to force LTT’s email provider to give their emails to a court.

                The entire email exchange provided wasn’t disputed by LTT. LTT only said in response, they gave us permission when the time stamps on the emails proved their original claims were false.
