  • @SlackWi
    "I miss micro-USB" is a disgusting take
  • No idea why you havent made a series out of this on the side, it's a great way to fix misunderstandings and incorrect information regarding the tech we work with today
  • @TraumatisedEwok
    'Except there's other f@~%&£g buildings!!' from behind the camera had me in stitches 🤣
  • @johnandrews3518
    I literally burst out laughing when he said the bit about how "MacOS is dog$#!7 for [professional engineers]"! Right you are sir. 👍👍
  • @turtleb01
    For those outside the Linux community: "20XX is the year of the Linux desktop" is almost completely a meme at this point
  • @Arewmon
    I love how we have a good mix of blatantly bad takes, actually really good albeit unpopular takes, and then tons of in between. It gives the video a good flow as opposed to only looking at the worst takes possible!
  • @SevenGC89
    Please do more of these Linus, I don't think you get enough credit when it comes to your knowledge and experience, especially if you look at the comments back on the Brian the Electrician hoarder video a lot of comments were genuinely impressed about your off the top knowledge on 15-25 year old CPUs and the way you were just rattling off information about them. I think videos like this are helpful to the community as long as they are ok with being called out and disagreed with in the polite and respectful way you do it. The only other place to really get to see you go into detail about your ideas and thoughts on community hot takes is maybe during the Wan show merch message responses but usually you guys have to somewhat rush through those because there are so many. I really think this should become a staple series on the channel, maybe like monthly or bi monthly, idk just a suggestion.
  • @noahginnett900
    I really liked this video. If it's not a series I would love it to be. I found the hot takes both entertaining and Linus's reactions very informative.
  • @EduardFisher
    This definately needs to be a reoccurring series
  • @Kiyuja
    Man there were some insane hot takes on this one. RIP to Max for having been turned into a pure Apple zombie, never going to be able to make his own decisions in life again
  • @qldfirefighter1
    9 months ago i ended a 39 year career in tech i ran a computer repair store for my boss and we had a gold mine. i loved anything tech. i love watching this kind of video. the customers SUK at being right. good bye ict. i do miss my hardware discounts though. ;(
  • @ChibiSteak
    This is one of the most engaging and entertaining Ltt videos for me in basically ever. More of this please
  • PLEASE MAKE THIS A RECURRING SERIES!!! Once or twice a year would be good. I love Linus's eloquent rebuttals.
  • This was fantastic please do more lol. Cheap content to produce and I actually found it very insightful to see Linus' opinions on technology takes
  • @schu1324
    thoroughly enjoyed this, make it a series please!
  • @Polygonhunter
    This should be an ongoing series. Very entertaining!
  • @pmackni
    "Don't take my word for it, Apple thinks you're wrong..." That got me more than it should have.
  • As a professional working in the built environment sector, specifically in architecture, i couldn't agree more that Mac is useless for the softwares that we use 😂
  • @IxNOvaSNipezxI
    Love this video. Great concept, it should be done consistently.
  • @azuraug8693
    This was phenomenal. Hope he brings this back for another go sometime in the future
