Kind of a trend, the amount of youtubers who i had loved but their content became generic after gaining popularity is quite a bit, most drastic one being mrwhosetheboss, his uniqueness went down faster than MH27 MH17

So you didn’t watch the video, or pay attention to the part I linked to.

Finally I want to apologise to Billet Labs for auctioning off their monoblock at LTX 2023.

Literally verbatim from that video, followed by some further explanation about what happened.

Is it a sufficient apology? Maybe not. But to say they didn’t apologise is completely false.

GN August 14th https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FGW3TPytTjc&t=108s breaks story

Linus claims Billet said we could keep it and we didn’t sell it we auctioned it.

Linus defends his “we didn’t sell it we auctioned it” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0cTpTMl8kFY&t=948s by saying its important to get all the details.

However the details, as Linus already knew, was that Billet asked for it back 2 weeks earlier, they lost track of it and sold it.

Linus response August 14th: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0cTpTMl8kFY&t=948s claims they offered to pay for it before they were under any pressure

GN August 15th https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X3byz3txpso&t3m54s Billet labs shows email chain they didn’t receive a response until after GN video was released and LTT was under pressure.

Billets email chain shows that they asked for it back long before it was sold. Linus claims they offered to pay for it before being pressured. Billet labs email chain shows they didn’t receive an offer until after GN’s videos hit the news.
