You know, this is some shit that I expect when dealing with some shady asshole on ebay, but LMG?

Bro... Are you ok?

I always wondered if Linus was actually a slimy POS, but this Billet Labs situation has cemented it for me. If you haven't watched the Gamers Nexus followup video, definitely watch it.

Wait they sent a 3090 too? Why Linus tried it with a different GPU then?

Because he's a fucking cunt. Always has been. No screwdriver on the face of the earth is worth $70 and no backpack is worth $250, but if it was it should have a goddamn warranty.

There's a video of them reviewing email clients of all things and they shit on outlook for companies... Anyone who's ever used outlook vs Gmail in a corporate environment knows that outlook destroys the competition because rules > tags.

Nothing they do is rooted in reality.

Hoodies should not be $100 unless they also come with a hooker who gives great head.

Fuck LTT.

Ackshually, professional grade tools are very expensive and they're of different quality than what you get at Home Depot. Materials, thicknesses, manufacturing tolerances are different and more expensive. As a result they last longer, sometimes drastically. The MegaPro screwdriver LTT got theirs influenced by is around the same price as the LTT one.

Still fuck LTT.

....I'm fully aware of the cost of professional tools. I own a few festool products.

However, for a goddamn human powered fucking screwdriver, $70 is INSANE. My co worker is wearing the hooding rn, has the backpack and screwdriver, and will not shut the fuck up about how amazing it is, so trust me, I've been hands on with it. And for the price, it's not worth it. Is it nice? Yes. Are there criticisms of it? Also YES. For $70 is should have a lifetime warranty.

We're on the same page. MegaPro offers lifetime warranty.

Also those LTT logos better come off easily cause it might be getting a bit shameful walking around in them soon.
