What in the actual F -

"I purposefully cut my leg open so badly I would have to go to the ER to get it stapled back together. It was genuinely the only way in my mind to take a day off without being harassed for a reason why."

Seems like a completely logical and sane thing for a person to do.

I’m well aware Americans use more energy on average, air con and terrible insulation standards and all that. His consumption was multiple times typical and he had no concept of why it’s high or a problem. Even driving an electric car doesn’t account for it. 10,0000 kWh in a model S would take you nearly 30,000 miles. His consumption was 40,000 kWh over typical and he is just one guy, no kids etc.

I can see your concerns but you there are too many assumptions that need to be made, so you can't draw a solid conclusion. Your estimate on range is dependent on driving style, we don't know his driving style, or how many miles he does annually. Or how many electric cars he owns. Apparently he has a girlfriend. Maybe she has a EV car as well.

We've estabilished that he is wealthy. So his house is probably bigger than average, probably has more eletronics than the average. But We don't know much about his home life.

There are too many unknowns for us to draw a solid conclusion.

If that is all true, and I would question the validity of a ex-employee accounts without corroboration from others.
Then my opinion on the matter of Linus has changed spectacularly.

I could forgive and defend the whole heat exchanger issue as I have worked / employeed logistics that are a world unto there own (I fired a guy for destroying £30k of bolts and nuts because he thought they were scrap without asking...)

I could forgive the inaccurate information as I've never seen Linus as a mainly tech channel, more a entertain-tech channel, bit like the history channel is to history.... And therefore they have to keep the YouTube algorithm happy which pushes constant output rather than quality to keep your channel in the top section of the search engine.

But reading Madison's thread, it comes across as poor inter personal management and lack of adequate HR skills. Which might be why he's brought in a CEO??

Seems Madison was unable to get the assistance that was necessary and was completely out of her depth for the job. Something a good manager would pick up and deal with.

The idea that she was put on a warning for reporting inappropriate touching/ grabbing is ****** up. I work in one of the most male sexist industries and anyone that made a female employee that uncomfortable would be out faster than he could think.

I have disciplined multiple people in other jobs for sexual harrasement after complaint from a female apprentice. I don't put up with that **** with my employees or people sub contracting for me.

Heads need to roll at ltt, the CEO needs to come to the front and show he has the company under his control and **** like this won't slide.


Not sure I'll be watching anymore ltt, despite it being good for casual tech viewers. I can't stand the traditional YouTube tech channels as it feels like a meeting with death by power point.


Tldr: defended Linus yesterday as I've dealt with logistics teams not communicating and can understand deadlines pressure. Now after Madisons tweets I think **** needs to change

Maddiosn will be the first to publically talk about problems, a lot more will follow. Also hearing that a complaint has been made to Vancouver police over Theft of property ; speculation right now, but its on the twitter verse.

How much truth there is in that I dunno, but the damage is done as it aligns with the narrative and Linus's attitude in his responses.

I suspect this won't be the last post like that either.

The other interesting thing from that is why does LTT/LMG have an OnlyFans account? :confused:

I get that that companies want as much social media coverage as possible but I'm trying to understand what a Tech company is doing with an OnlyFans account and that they then make an unwilling employee manage it.

Because the accountant doing the media group valuation said it adds 50 million.

Linus might need to get himself on onlyfans soon.
