    Wow you’re right that is extremely long. Tldr seems to be he’s saying he didn’t do anything wrong and he’s disappointed Steve didn’t just send him a quick text about it. I feel like it would have been better for Linus to own the mistake at this stage and get the prototype thingy back as it’s not like he’s short on cash or anything. I’d say he comes off like a bit of a jerk. We’ll see how this one shakes out.

        Not every story requires a reaching out for comment.

        I don’t feel this story did. Linus is just perturbed Steve didnt reach out and give him an opportunity to pressure Steve into not running the story.

          Yeah, either that, or trying to lie to Steve aboht shit like the Billet Labs thing.

          It’s ironic that he feels like he’s being bashed by Steve for not contacting him after he bashed an indie company without contacting them prior to posting the review. A review that was very poorly done and, essentially, put them in the worst of lights possible. All right before selling their product on an auction.

          What a piece of shit.

      I am a fan of Linus. To say he had a bad take is an understatement.

        Linus wouldn’t like it that you’re a fan, he hates that whole concept of being a fan

      He said he made those mistakes, he’s sorry, he’ll try not to do it again, but they’re not a big deal.

          That didn’t happen.

          And if it did, it wasn’t that bad.

          And if it was, that’s not a big deal.

          And if it is, that’s not my fault.

          And if it was, I didn’t mean it.

          And if I did, you deserved it.
