A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

While also monetizing the video and plugging their merch, in direct contrast to GN not monetizing the original video that started this whole thing. Absolutely brutal move there.
GN monetized their follow up video just the same, pure drama for clicks about a total non issue. But Internet loves this shit. That GN likes to put huge focus on not monetizing and playing "holier than thou"-card isn't exactly a good look either.
GN's follow up video is actually their normally scheduled news vid that happens to address Linus' poor reaction.
