Most of which are armament that the US government already had in its arsenal. You've spent the money and now those missiles are actually in use instead of being hold in storage. I'm actually more interested in that 900 USD amount, where did you read or hear that exact number?
PerCarita
I think this is a bad faith reading of the other comment. Perhaps Warrior of Ukraine meant that they're European, and as such is more emotionally and intellectually invested in the war in Ukraine than in the ongoing conflict of non-Europeans (which you rightly identified as "people too", of course) in Palestine/Israel.
I have a hunch LMG will come out with a company reply. LMG is not Linus, and Linus is not LMG, despite owning the company. You can also see in the comments how many people get this wrong, some even going on ad hominem attacks on Linus' person.
It could be the case, that the forum post was Linus' personal answer and the other execs stopped him from running his mouth on a live show (WAN) and dig them a deeper hole. I don't work at LMG and I don't know Linus personally, but if LMG would want to be "taken seriously as a company", it should be a company statement, not a personal one.
Walk me there please, which lie are you talking about?
You're right. There was a follow up video from GN with Billet's response. LMG did indeed send them an email to reimburse the cost of the lost prototype, but they haven't replied. It's not as settled as I thought.
It was a fuck up, yes. Probably without malicious intent, but still a fuck up.
I just saw the follow up
That's easy. An item made its way to logistics, got mislabelled by someone who wasn't concentrating or who didn't know better, item landed in an auction. Apparently LMG needs a better system of internal communication or more micro managing from someone in marketing or communications for handling incoming and outcoming items.
An easy example would be if you forgot a personal book at the library, a librarian mistook it for donation, and then your book becomes catalogued. It doesn't have to be malicious.
I don't know if Billet has the appetite to sue. It seems like Billet and LMG came to an agreement
I don't know Linus personally the way you do, but he ran LMG as if it was still a small company running out of a house instead of a midsized one. The vibe I got was that the mistake of putting the Billet item on auction wasn't made by Linus personally, but my a staff member, that would explain that apology with Linus not taking personal responsibility because he felt like it wasn't on him to manage the movement of this one item.
I have no horse in this race. Will still watch Techquickie and the occasional GN video.
Have you read the Discworld?
Why are we letting China get away with it? Why are we letting Saudi Arabia get away with it? The IOC is a toaster and it's like you're asking it to make you a whole roast dinner. It can't even make toast properly...
