According to Billet themselves, they heard nothing about compensation or payback until about 3 hours after the original GN video went live.. Which Billet hadnt even replied to before Linus made his post saying they've already made the deal on compensation.

Have you ever watched the WAN show? He almost always refuses to admit he's wrong. He's a douchebag.

Even poor Luke is sometimes flabbergasted. You can see him trying to tiptoe around Linus' hot takes.

The wan show is primarily for doubling down / justifying poor decisions. At least that's how it feels given how he's handled it with previous issues

I've only seen clips of it here and there, never fully watched or listened, but definitely seems pretty bad based on what I'm hearing...

Too bad he's like this, honestly the guy's definitely talented and makes good content (if he actually puts the work and proper time in), but seems he's just way too arrogant to admit when he's wrong. I just expected more honestly, just sad to see after being a viewer for this long, and always getting the impression that he was transparent and more down to earth, which now its evident the opposite is true.
