Answer: Replace the light with two lights to either side of the original location and now you can mount the projector in it's place (Bonus you can turn the old light electrical box into a receptacle for the projector to plug into). Would only take Brian the Electrician about 2 hours to get that done for you.

Linus you need to remember people watch your videos because they trust that you have put in honest work to bring us accurate and correct information - the moment you lose that trust it is almost impossible to regain it - remember that when you decide to put money over honest work because the money will only come so long as the latter exists.

@@Aqualightnin They didn't debunk anything they said that LTT paid for it after the fact and only after they pursued potential legal action over it linus was perfectly happy with screwing them over and really he still screwed them over because they didn't get their prototype back they had to remake it from the ground up
This series bought me back to watching LTT. It got me into watching some of the other hosts and I like seeing the staff who usually aren't on the business end of the camera.
Which end of the camera is the business end? I’d say the videographer is a business end. And the on screen presenter is there to get a project written and shot. And Linus is there to… Linus. Which somehow actually is his job, and a necessary job. Maybe others are capable of Linusing. Anyway my point is in a Media Company I have no clue what the Business End isn’t.
I actually feel like this series is... idk... lacks. I don't know this guy so really it makes the video hard to be invested in. Linus is great as a host but there's only so much he can do to keep me invested... this one is a scrap for me but hey people are clearly loving it so that's all that matters.
30 seconds into the video and I'm loving how every one goes "With this 5k the sponsor gave I'm going to make my boss do some chores for me" Ultimate Boss Chore Making hahahaha

@@avixs1543 Linus has lost ALL credibility, we thought he was honest. It seems it's not the case and he's a "boss like any other boss" trying to get the most $$ of his employees.

LTT: We built the lab to get better, more accurate data for the consumer! Viewers: But the data is wrong! LTT: It costs too much money to correct it. But we make these videos for you, trust me bro! Me: "Nope!"
LTT: Also we didn't follow instructions for this product, so we think it's bad because it doesn't work. Viewers: maybe you should try it again because you did it wrong LTT: No that would be pointless because we don't like it Billet: Ok can we at least have our prototype back LTT: Yes LTT: *Auctions it for money*
he lost me when he said "oh I cant spend $100-$500 in man hours to actually review this product" while whining about how rushed everything is--because he's the one rushing everything
this is a gross misrepresentation of the comment. he said it wasnt worth spending 100, 200, or even 500 bucks on testing the cooler any differently because "AT 800 dollars its a bad product and noone should buy it". that comment is one hundred percent VALID! no amount of testing would change it's price point, which is the problem with it entirely.
i hope you understand these items arent "loaned" to LTT to test, they are GIVEN. it belonged to LTT, then was requested back. they said they'd give it back but couldnt find it. it got lost in storage. months later was found and auctioned @@crushboss
4:57 Unless I missed something, I’m pretty sure the 7950X3D has integrated graphics. They’re not the really good ones for gaming (it’s just 2 RDNA2 Computer Units) but it’s enough to use the system without a GPU.
This video is horribly confusing. The PC they are working on initially is a different one, a 3950X is shown when it boots (which has no GPU). Later on they work on the 7950X3D…
take the light out in the room, rewire it to be an outlet, and then use that outlet for the projector, mount it there, and use the other outlet (being two total on the thingy) plug in a light so u can still have one
If the wiring and MCBs used are suited to supplying an outlet which should always be specd to the maximum capacity of the outlet being used.... Not terrible in this case where it will be removed before moving out but not good practice at least not where im from lol
@@jakehiggins5118 Just move that lights feed out of the switch side and into the line side...... Its just kind of shitty if anyone tries to isolate what they think is a power point at the switch board only to find out its on a lighting circuit after turning off every breaker in a quest to fix DIY wiring ideas hahaha
The damage you've inflicted on Billet Labs and the absolutely incredulous act of auctioning something that never belonged to you needs to be addressed for the sake of your credibility going forward.
I really hope Billet Labs can get a Lawsuit out of this. They should say this guy arrogant guy. Disgusting behavior I really wished that never happened. Billet Labs will see greater days
billets own twitter post shows they GAVE the item to LTT, as per the agreement, then asked for it back as they realized it was their best performing prototype.
@@Aqualightnin even so, LMG still had it for over a month and didn't send it back. Not to mention they agreed to send it back... It's shameful behaviour.
I'm pretty sure we had a bit with the projector since I won that at the Christmas party like 5 years ago but no he was immediately overwhelmed by the scope lol.
@@eflarsen He said he asked them for some bananas and got just pink ones given to him; implying a lack of choice... not really the same as the stacks of hardware loot shown in prior videos.
FYI, for the projector/light issue: just remove the ceiling light and install an electrical socket in its place, then mount the projector right there, solving the power problem as well. Then just use a floor lamp or two in the corners of the room for light.
Just watch the rating on the fuse. I know in my country that sockets have a 15/20A fuse whereas lighting has a 10A. Shouldn't be a problem if you're running efficient bulbs, but if its a bunch of 100W incandescent for example it may draw too much.
These videos are pure jank with zero building permits or code concerns. You can't drop a screen in front of the only exit door or blindly drill into the celling of a condo but here we are watching both.
A Path Beyond! I spent so many hours in that game. Was a blast! Played as Kazmo and was top sniper kills at some point with two different names! Glad to see it's still around.
I love this series!! But why… is it because I subconsciously want to live vicariously through the guests experiences? Is it Linus’s subtle roasting of existing products (purchases or borrowed from the office)? They’re always so well done. Keep up the great work!
Words mean nothing at this point, actions do. Get Billet Labs their prototype back, reimburse them for any expenses incurred during this period, give them a free promo to boot, something along those lines. And that's just the tip of the iceberg of all the stuff they need to do to redeem themselves, and Linus either has to go or fix his ridiculous attitude. "Oh, spending 500$ to do our job properly and not potentially destroy another person's business over our own idiocy, that's too much! I can't even apologise for not being willing to spend that money!" There's 0 integrity at LTT. Granted the mistakes in some of their videos don't come down to integrity but the way they treated Billet Labs wasn't a mistake, that was intentional. They had all the information, affirmed it, and then proceeded to do their very best to destroy that small company anyway.
I genuinely hate to take away from someone's special video experience, but the GN video is really the most important video LTT viewers should be watching now. This is honestly unacceptable. I genuinely hope Linus takes the time to watch the video, reflect and then directly address the community. Not 30 minutes of frustrated rambling on the WAN show. A real response. And Ideally a roadmap forward. I've been an LTT supporter for a long time. I'm hoping that this is the wake-up call they need. I hope they take it and can move forward. But if this just comes to pass with no action, I'm out.
if you're interested, linus responded to the video with a post on his forum. he said "There won't be a big WAN Show segment about this or anything. Most of what I have to say, I've already said, and I've done so privately."
@@hiddendrifts Ooooh, meaning that GN will be making a follow-up video of Linus "No balls" Sebastian's 'private' thoughts on how his company has screwed up.

@@chincemagnet Assuming they even have the means to do so. Hopefully they do, but yeah, LMG deserves to be blasted apart in court over this. This doesn't come from a place of hate or anything, I enjoyed their work for years, right up until yesterday when I saw the GN video. This is a matter of principles and integrity. Linus may need a dictionary to grasp those.
@@makedaevilmage I don't even think he is acting like a scumbag, I think he is acting callous. He didn't like the product because in his mind the product is a 800$ waste of money no matter how well it does, so every other action once he had decided that shows his lack of care for it because after all, if it's a waste anyway why bother with it beyond thrashing it?
An honest opinion does not always have to please the manufacturer. That would be paid advertising, and there is already more than enough of that on the web. LTT has always had a refreshingly different approach. But professional test results will also come with the Lab in the future. But what does all this have to do with the Tech Upgrade?
@@Netro1992 Nothing. The cooling block was auctioned off in a charity auction and not used in a tech upgrade. Someone must have reached into the wrong shelf. That happens when internal processes can't keep up with the enormous growth.
Dear Linus and LTT team, I know taking criticism is not always easy, but we as fans would like to see you grow and improve from the criticism that the community and GamersNexus have thrown at you. We as a community would also appreciate it if you would sort out the issues with Billet Labs Thanks :)
dear @pineapplepizza5733 if you did a modicum of research you would see the item was reacquired and given back to billet before the posting of the GN video, as well as monetary compensation
Seems Linus has used the skills he learned as a painter to paint himself into a corner. Good job GN came along to take away his brush when they did. Edit: Turns out Linus had another brush....
The damage can't be undone. Apologizing is fruitless. You stole from a company and then attacked the most reputable PC gaming channel on TH-cam. There is no course-correction on this one, you have to be completely out-of-touch to ever behave this way. This is a sign of a channel that thinks it's too big when it's not.
Knowing the ins and outs of different options is very useful if you ever go to make your own house. It will mean you will only need to build 2-3 to get it right, instead of 5-6.
@@phelan8385 I'm using M2 raid and it does more harm than good. Can slow down queues and random read/write as the RAID implementation adds overhead to any task, and you only see benefits when moving massive contiguous files (this situation never really shows up outside of messing with high res uncompressed video). On top of this windows can't use an M2 RAID for DirectStorage
They became too big for themselves. If you lose your morals you lose respect. A few 100 bucks to correct something that is your fault is morally right..
Just don't OC your ram to 6400 like Linus tried doing in this video. You want 6000 to match the infinity fabric on 7000 series CPUs. Thought he would know that
Linus I'm going to give you a piece of advice, the best thing you can do at this point is own up to it all. You cannot run from this or try to talk your way out of it, all you can do is own it because everything gamers Nexus said was accurate. You should try to make peace with them, thank them and become better. When you put out a response video it should be "gamers Nexus was right". Pledge to your subscribers that you're going to do better. Tell them that this was a wake up call that you desperately needed. This is the only play you have and it's the only way people are going to get past this and still respect you.
I feel like we’re gonna get a Colleen-esque apology where Linus still thinks he’s right and will begin to then bring up other channels misinformation or even bring up GN own mistakes
Wont happen with linus its about him and him only not the people whom work for him typical company that dont give two rats shits about anyone but there self.
Woah, Red Alert: A Path Beyond on an LTT video? That's a crossover I never expected to see... As lead engine developer for this project (and others on the same engine) its always good when our games get more exposure...
Yep. Breach of Contract, Negligence, Defamation, Conversion and Economic Interference (Tortious interference) are a few that come to mind (Im not a lawyer)
yeah but you know everyone's gonna eat up the apology. Unless if they cut back on the number of videos they publish per week, nothing is changing behind the scenes
Same. Too bad many are not giving LTT a chance to right the wrongs. I only watch techlinked. Nevertheless it's good to have LMG make entertainment videos. Not every video in this space needs to be like GN mostly technical only stuff. Let's hope they don't dig themselves into a deeper hole.
@@justsomeguysHandleChangedByYT I agree. I don't want to damn ltt to destruction, but definitely want to meme on their blatant disregard for the issues Steve raises. Hoping it makes lmg rise to greater heights because I do like lmg vids for entertainment
At this point any data supplied by Ltt has to be taken with a grain of salt. There is a 70% chance it may be wrong. See how easy it is to make things up.
Whenever LTT reviewed something I owned I always noticed how little they actually explored the product and how many failures were just their lack of information on how the product worked since I own a very very tiny amount of what's reviewed I use to wave it off. A lot of things make more sense now. This is as disappointing as it is lousy and awful
Watching the guys mount the projector screen is exactly what it feels like as an AV installer. It feels like you’re making progress and then you can’t mount the projector and you have to start over.
This was so painful to watch. Those two didn't even try a bit. Or they did try and just failed miserably. I wonder what they usually do at LMG. Or are they just poor handymen?
@@alexdavis9324if you have experience mounting TVs and are unable to mount a projector screen, you probably should stop mounting TVs, neither are rocket science, one skill should transfer to the other, considering how poorly the screen installation went, I wouldn’t be very confident in their ability to mount the TV despite both being extremely easy.
the previous owners of my house had those 70's wooden panels glued to the walls in most rooms of the house. my parents took down most of them, but one room my dad planned to use as an office. three kids later it was time for me to have a room, and on one wall they just slapped drywall over it since it didnt have any outlets or wiring on either side. well eventually i wanted a desk in my room along that wall and outlets for anything i wanted to plug in. the electrician was taken aback when he tried cutting out the first outlet and his keyhole knife flexed as he pushed in to cut. once he knew it was there he had to actually find the stud. years later my room layout changed, and now i have some things anchored to the wall, bookcases, tracked adjustable shelving, three monitors, but for the most part, the stuff is light enough i can just drive into the paneling without worrying if its on stud or not.@@LzysGraphics
Love your channel Linus but I hope you take the time to listen to the feedback the community has given in how you can improve the company so you may continue providing this lovely content and leaving your mark on the lives of many in a positive light. An example of such criticism is the video made by Gamers Nexus titled "The Problem with Linus Tech Tips: Accuracy, Ethics, & Responsibility"
I think it's empty filler content tbh. Just clicked on it to see if it's as meh as I remember. There has been lots of good quality content on the channel over the years. This and similar videos are not it though.
@@ThaSideWeed I mean your not wrong. To each there own. I just like seeing what others would spend there money on tech wise to improve their home comfort experience. I always find one or two things from these types of vids Linus makes I go "Damn that mould make my life so much better to have."
Absolutely. They should be forced to get that prototype back, pay damages commensurate with the fact that they may have destroyed this small company's future by auctioning off their prototype without permission.
And even if Billet Labs would make a product despite the design being shared with the world, the damage of unjustified defamation of the brand has already been done. He has to be sued.
the problem is Billet labs is a small UK based company and LTT is based in Canada, very very expensive to sue internationally and what not, which is why LTT can get away with it without any repercussions, other than coming across really scummy.
@@PrograErrorSome WAN show that 6 yours long isn't gonna be enough for the wrong that's been happening. It's a very niche thing that just a few of the subscribers watch.

By creating a fire hazard and a janky install that likely required a building permit that wasn't obtained.

If I were Billet Labs I'd launch a gofundme to crowdfund a lawsuit and run you into the ground. Shame on you.
So uh.. when you changing the name to Liars Media Group? Who would have thought you'd put profits over real, factual information. I mean, lots of people did. When you released a video saying "We don't care what you, the fanbase wants, we need more subscribers for more money" it was pretty clear. Glad people are finally latching onto it.
I'm unsubscribing and donating my LTT coat to a homeless shelter. I'm incredibly disappointed in your review videos and will no longer support your channel.
I just installed the same projector setup in my bedroom and ran into the issue with the light. To get around it, I found a setting to scale the projector output size and made it work
I’m so glad the billet labs situation got more light, they probably lost so much money and imagine the stress these poor guys had to go through bc oh linus didnt want to spend 500 bucks on doing the god damned test they were given proper instructions of and just messing it all up and blaming the company
@@iggy1296 I'm willing to guarantee that it isn't, especially as LTT agreed, on more than one occasion, to send the prototype back. What utter scumbags.
I just thought about the fact that there has been no Ultimate Tech Upgrade for a while ... and here one is :D Keep it up guys, my favorite LTT series of all time.
I heard you guys like to auction off stuff that isn't yours. Pretty sure that's considered theft. So Linus, according to you, that waterblock was worthless. But.. not worthless enough to auction off for a profit?.. Please be more precise on that as the actions are hypocritical to the prior statement. Perhaps you personally weren't aware of the auctioning mishap, and if that is the case, there's a serious lack of communication between you and your associates. Not to mention how you misrepresented it in the first place, but to you it wasn't worth a couple hundred dollars for your company (worth over $100,000,000) to re-investigate your findings? Really? That's literally nothing for you. That's like what? 7 overly priced LTT screwdrivers? You messed up pretty big time dude.
Based on the Gamers Nexus video, I am unsubscribing. Something about Linus's attitude towards his employees has always troubled me. This video reinforced and explained the reasons behind those concerns. I don't like how he treats others. Bye!
the best thing to do when the studs aren't where you want this is to take a 2x2 piece of lumber paint it the color of your ceiling and mount it across the span of the studs that are there and then you can mount the piece you need in a specific location anywhere across that piece of lumber...
For anyone else reading this, the technique is called blocking. And if you ever do kitchen renos or anything like that, putting front-facing blocking flush with your studs can give more convenient mounting points for cabinets and the like.
Holy hell, this channel was just murdered. The truth is you guys deserved it too, you are the Bose of PC TH-cam channels. Eventually the shoddy work you do was going to catch up with you and now it's going to cost you big time I suspect. You get what you get.
Unsubscribed. I won't be watching anymore LTT until the company LMG and you Lunis personally, publicly and sincerely apologize for you behavior towards Billet Labs. You also have to compensate them for slander and the theft of their prototype. At least 1 million dollars in my book. Less is a slap on the wrist. Nothing that obeys the laws of physics would change the fact that you lied!
I am one of the few subscribers that have watched you from the very beginning, like socket 1156 and the AMD Athlon 64 FX Video. After Gamers Nexus posted a video about quality from you and the Billet Labs situation, I am genuinely disappointed. I was blind sighted from errors but there is a problem. You need to take these comments on board and sort it out. You are one of if not the largest tech channel that alot of people look up to. You also need to sort out the Billet Labs situation. It was completely unprofessional even if there was miscommunication between management. Thats my personal opinion
It's 800 dollars for you to bought it back, but a whole company for them to lose. A youtuber company with 15.6 million subscribers grumbling for 800 dollars, WTF
You guys need to get Billet Labs their block back. Find whoever you sold it to, buy it back, and return it like you told them you would.
It's probably in the hands of another company that makes GPU coolers and the money is probably already in linus bank account by now.

can't wait for nvidia tech upgrade
I imagine they're going to want to keep it going for as long as they can just to one-up Intel, the way AMD saved the series when Intel bailed was great marketing for them
I bet Intel didn't think AMD would take the tech upgrade sponsorship, that's the worst possible outcome for intel! Hahahaha! Go team red!!
@@LizordSword A future 7090 ti will probably cost the entire 5k budget. Nvidia seem to be completely out of touch with their customers in recent years. AMD is the way.
The fact that he probably will never install the projector because he has to move the light, is hilarious! 😂
It's the holes sealing the faith for me. I have to take it off to patch up El's work and the way it's hooked up means I gotta buy more gear in all likelihood so it's going up on Marketplace at some point.

It blocks the door, it's a fire hazard. Either rearrange the room so you can still get out while the screen is down or it goes in another room.
LTT: We built the lab to get better, more accurate data for the consumer!
Viewers: But the data is wrong!
LTT: It costs too much money to correct it. But we make these videos for you, trust me bro!
Me: "Nope!"
that its marketing bro not accurate data
LTT: Also we didn't follow instructions for this product, so we think it's bad because it doesn't work.
Viewers: maybe you should try it again because you did it wrong
LTT: No that would be pointless because we don't like it
Billet: Ok can we at least have our prototype back
LTT: Yes
LTT: *Auctions it for money*
he lost me when he said "oh I cant spend $100-$500 in man hours to actually review this product" while whining about how rushed everything is--because he's the one rushing everything
this is a gross misrepresentation of the comment. he said it wasnt worth spending 100, 200, or even 500 bucks on testing the cooler any differently because "AT 800 dollars its a bad product and noone should buy it". that comment is one hundred percent VALID! no amount of testing would change it's price point, which is the problem with it entirely.

4:57 Unless I missed something, I’m pretty sure the 7950X3D has integrated graphics. They’re not the really good ones for gaming (it’s just 2 RDNA2 Computer Units) but it’s enough to use the system without a GPU.
We're talking about the 3950x in my old PC.

take the light out in the room, rewire it to be an outlet, and then use that outlet for the projector, mount it there, and use the other outlet (being two total on the thingy) plug in a light so u can still have one
but then you'd have to have the switch on for the plugs to work so if you tried to turn off the light then you'd turn off the projector too
@@jakehiggins5118 Depending on how you plan your setup that could actually be a good thing.
If the wiring and MCBs used are suited to supplying an outlet which should always be specd to the maximum capacity of the outlet being used.... Not terrible in this case where it will be removed before moving out but not good practice at least not where im from lol
@@jakehiggins5118 Just move that lights feed out of the switch side and into the line side...... Its just kind of shitty if anyone tries to isolate what they think is a power point at the switch board only to find out its on a lighting circuit after turning off every breaker in a quest to fix DIY wiring ideas hahaha
No need to add a separate light, just watch a bright scene on the projector when you need light.
The damage you've inflicted on Billet Labs and the absolutely incredulous act of auctioning something that never belonged to you needs to be addressed for the sake of your credibility going forward.
can’t wait to hear his excuse and how it’s not his fault blah blah blah
I really hope Billet Labs can get a Lawsuit out of this. They should say this guy arrogant guy. Disgusting behavior I really wished that never happened. Billet Labs will see greater days
billets own twitter post shows they GAVE the item to LTT, as per the agreement, then asked for it back as they realized it was their best performing prototype.
@@Aqualightnin even so, LMG still had it for over a month and didn't send it back. Not to mention they agreed to send it back... It's shameful behaviour.
Billet Labs admitted in reddit that the prototype isn't that important, since they are fine with someone else having it.
This is the first upgrade Linus didn't walk around mentioning things stolen from the office.
He's not the CEO anymore, so employee theft is no longer his problem!
@coherentpanda7115 he never actually cared anyways when he was a ceo, it was just a funny thing to try and find stuff
did all the pink bananas for scale mean nohting to you.
I'm pretty sure we had a bit with the projector since I won that at the Christmas party like 5 years ago but no he was immediately overwhelmed by the scope lol.
@@eflarsen He said he asked them for some bananas and got just pink ones given to him; implying a lack of choice... not really the same as the stacks of hardware loot shown in prior videos.
FYI, for the projector/light issue: just remove the ceiling light and install an electrical socket in its place, then mount the projector right there, solving the power problem as well. Then just use a floor lamp or two in the corners of the room for light.
Just watch the rating on the fuse. I know in my country that sockets have a 15/20A fuse whereas lighting has a 10A. Shouldn't be a problem if you're running efficient bulbs, but if its a bunch of 100W incandescent for example it may draw too much.
And leave the light switch on the wall so you can turn on/off your projector from the wall.
@honorablead Don't do this.. use your remote. Projectors need to properly shut down.
These videos are pure jank with zero building permits or code concerns. You can't drop a screen in front of the only exit door or blindly drill into the celling of a condo but here we are watching both.
I wonder if he'll aution off the projector when you ask him to bring it back to work multiple times

I really like this channel but what you guys did to Billet Labs is despicable
Here we are, with that narrative proven false, and yet Gamers Nexus has yet to apologize or issue a correction.
I love this series!! But why… is it because I subconsciously want to live vicariously through the guests experiences? Is it Linus’s subtle roasting of existing products (purchases or borrowed from the office)? They’re always so well done. Keep up the great work!
I love when he brings up "borrowed" office stuff 😂
I think its the lack of a script more then anything
I hope they keep it honest in the response and say you know what GN is right we need to do better
I doubt it. They try to brush it under the rug or blame anyone else
Words mean nothing at this point, actions do.
Get Billet Labs their prototype back, reimburse them for any expenses incurred during this period, give them a free promo to boot, something along those lines. And that's just the tip of the iceberg of all the stuff they need to do to redeem themselves, and Linus either has to go or fix his ridiculous attitude.
"Oh, spending 500$ to do our job properly and not potentially destroy another person's business over our own idiocy, that's too much! I can't even apologise for not being willing to spend that money!"
There's 0 integrity at LTT. Granted the mistakes in some of their videos don't come down to integrity but the way they treated Billet Labs wasn't a mistake, that was intentional. They had all the information, affirmed it, and then proceeded to do their very best to destroy that small company anyway.
They can't. You can't just apologize when you base all your business on "honest reviews" if you're not honest
SPOILER ALERT: he didn't
I genuinely hate to take away from someone's special video experience, but the GN video is really the most important video LTT viewers should be watching now. This is honestly unacceptable. I genuinely hope Linus takes the time to watch the video, reflect and then directly address the community. Not 30 minutes of frustrated rambling on the WAN show. A real response. And Ideally a roadmap forward. I've been an LTT supporter for a long time. I'm hoping that this is the wake-up call they need. I hope they take it and can move forward. But if this just comes to pass with no action, I'm out.

An honest opinion does not always have to please the manufacturer. That would be paid advertising, and there is already more than enough of that on the web.

The damage can't be undone. Apologizing is fruitless. You stole from a company and then attacked the most reputable PC gaming channel on TH-cam.

You either die a hero or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain.
Linus I'm going to give you a piece of advice, the best thing you can do at this point is own up to it all. You cannot run from this or try to talk your way out of it, all you can do is own it because everything gamers Nexus said was accurate. You should try to make peace with them, thank them and become better. When you put out a response video it should be "gamers Nexus was right". Pledge to your subscribers that you're going to do better. Tell them that this was a wake up call that you desperately needed. This is the only play you have and it's the only way people are going to get past this and still respect you.
I feel like we’re gonna get a Colleen-esque apology where Linus still thinks he’s right and will begin to then bring up other channels misinformation or even bring up GN own mistakes

At this point any data supplied by Ltt has to be taken with a grain of salt. There is a 70% chance it may be wrong. See how easy it is to make things up.
Whenever LTT reviewed something I owned I always noticed how little they actually explored the product and how many failures were just their lack of information on how the product worked since I own a very very tiny amount of what's reviewed I use to wave it off.

the previous owners of my house had those 70's wooden panels glued to the walls in most rooms of the house. my parents took down most of them, but one room my dad planned to use as an office. three kids later it was time for me to have a room, and on one wall they just slapped drywall over it since it didnt have any outlets or wiring on either side.
well eventually i wanted a desk in my room along that wall and outlets for anything i wanted to plug in. the electrician was taken aback when he tried cutting out the first outlet and his keyhole knife flexed as he pushed in to cut. once he knew it was there he had to actually find the stud.
years later my room layout changed, and now i have some things anchored to the wall, bookcases, tracked adjustable shelving, three monitors, but for the most part, the stuff is light enough i can just drive into the paneling without worrying if its on stud or not.@@LzysGraphics

LTT should probably be sued for what they did to Billet Labs
Absolutely. They should be forced to get that prototype back, pay damages commensurate with the fact that they may have destroyed this small company's future by auctioning off their prototype without permission.
Yep the damages and stolen design data is too much, now anyone can make them...any kind of compensation is pointless now...
And even if Billet Labs would make a product despite the design being shared with the world, the damage of unjustified defamation of the brand has already been done. He has to be sued.
the problem is Billet labs is a small UK based company and LTT is based in Canada, very very expensive to sue internationally and what not, which is why LTT can get away with it without any repercussions, other than coming across really scummy.

Perhaps you personally weren't aware of the auctioning mishap, and if that is the case, there's a serious lack of communication between you and your associates.

You ment to say it went to a tax write off, How much it even auctioned off for anyway and to who?
$500 saved ! Congrats 💀💀
Should've taken that 100 mill linus. Hope your channel turns out the same as tek syndicate.
Based on the Gamers Nexus video, I am unsubscribing. Something about Linus's attitude towards his employees has always troubled me. This video reinforced and explained the reasons behind those concerns. I don't like how he treats others. Bye!
Bro not returning that block and selling it was besides just basically theft also pathetic.
I can't apologize for not wanting to spend 200 dollars - Linus
the best thing to do when the studs aren't where you want this is to take a 2x2 piece of lumber paint it the color of your ceiling and mount it across the span of the studs that are there and then you can mount the piece you need in a specific location anywhere across that piece of lumber...
For anyone else reading this, the technique is called blocking. And if you ever do kitchen renos or anything like that, putting front-facing blocking flush with your studs can give more convenient mounting points for cabinets and the like.
@@broad_cat Another way I have seen done is to put OSB behind the drywall and you can mount anything anywhere you want.
Holy hell, this channel was just murdered. The truth is you guys deserved it too, you are the Bose of PC TH-cam channels. Eventually the shoddy work you do was going to catch up with you and now it's going to cost you big time I suspect. You get what you get.
murdered? its been 5 hours and less than 10k sub decrease. its not a murder, but it is definitely a stab wound.
itll get worse forsure

Here we are, with that narrative proven false, and yet Gamers Nexus has yet to apologize or issue a correction.
Unsubscribed. I won't be watching anymore LTT until the company LMG and you Lunis personally, publicly and sincerely apologize for you behavior towards Billet Labs.
You also have to compensate them for slander and the theft of their prototype. At least 1 million dollars in my book. Less is a slap on the wrist.
Nothing that obeys the laws of physics would change the fact that you lied!
I am one of the few subscribers that have watched you from the very beginning, like socket 1156 and the AMD Athlon 64 FX Video. After Gamers Nexus posted a video about quality from you and the Billet Labs situation, I am genuinely disappointed. I was blind sighted from errors but there is a problem.
You need to take these comments on board and sort it out. You are one of if not the largest tech channel that alot of people look up to. You also need to sort out the Billet Labs situation. It was completely unprofessional even if there was miscommunication between management. Thats my personal opinion
It's 800 dollars for you to bought it back, but a whole company for them to lose.
A youtuber company with 15.6 million subscribers grumbling for 800 dollars, WTF
15.6 today, how many tomorrow ?
FYI: you can start the devicemanager from the cmd aswell, and Install driver there directly, or if they are exe, just start explorer.
