I knew he was full of shit, because hell talk about really complicated things like ram timing like he's an expert, then when he tries to use Linux, a package manager is too complex for him and he becomes less tech savvy than my 75 year old mom, so its pretty obvious he knows nothing when he's not being feed answers by some marketing goon

That Linux video was so frustrating

Indeed it was. That was the shark-jump moment for me, and I wasn't even a part of the community.

This is so amusing to me, because I had no idea who this Linus was - I was only somewhat familiar with Linus Torvald of Linux fame. I looked up last night just to check that the old Linux nerd wasn't running around stealing water coolers and such.

Extra funny to see a comment the next morning that this Linus knows zero about Linux.

My impression was that the linux video was meant to be more of a vlog "Watch Linus Do Something" style and not a researched video. And its obvious that he would know very little about an operating system he has never used before.

it was a different style video, but he had used linux before.
he even knew he should use the package manager, but for some reason didnt ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
