Keep in mind that a) that was the conversion from the US pricing. Chances are it will be a different price if and when they hit the market in the UK. Additionally keep in mind that the reporting was that hypothetically they may become commercially available in the UK next year. I highly doubt anyone is trying to create fear in the UK today to drive purchases of a product that might become available in the UK in 2024.
That sounds frustrating. FWIW, I had a quick look for this thing I thought I remembered. The results I found referred to the issue I ly effecting cropped images however I'm sure I remember seeing something when I first read about it that suggested it also effected trimmed videos. Certainly the nature of the bug is such that it's conceivable that it does.
Yeah no problem. I actually posted a top level comment fwiw. I think I maybe remember that Google's solution for trimming videos was broken (in a way that is apparently now fixed) in a way that meant it was much easier than it should be to get the data back. Potentially worth googling for a bit to see if I'm right and if it can help you.
Iirc (which I'm not entirely confident I do), whilst it has been patched there was some sort of issue where the I built Google tools for things like trimming video were not actually deleting the trimmed portion at all. Worth googling about it (using a different device.) Could be there's an unpatched issue with the way your phone deletes trimmed video that makes it relatively easy to get that footage back.
Fundamentally though I doubt they have any right whatsoever to trim your recording so it might be best to just try to consult with a lawyer. If there's any sort of legal action you could take they will be able to advise on exactly what evidence you would need and how to gather it.
I suspect that all the not Linus people were already working towards publishing a response like this to the Gamer's Nexus video when Linus ran off wildcarding again and they then decided to rush out a video so they could clearly state that Linus's response only represented Linus's knee-jerk response and was not supported by or representative of LTT/LMG's take. So... It really really sucks that they responded to a situation created by them rushing and being sloppy by rushing and being sloppy but it may well be that if Linus had been kept under control they wouldn't have and keeping Linus under control seems to be a big part of their strategy going forwards. I guess my point is it's too early to judge whether the shift in internal power dynamics at LTT/LMG, refocusing their priorities and reducing their rate of output will actually solve the issues or not.
I think I heard that (and the jokes about the CFO being the "sponsor") had been trimmed out of the video (which I haven't checked.) The first time I saw it (just about an hour after posting) it was still included and you could still see the value that Billet labs was giving for their prototype was still unblurred and there was a comment from the head of labs about how they were going to post some sort of transparency video behind a paywall (on Floatplane.) When I rewatched later that day (to show someone) they had blurred out the value, they still had the jokes about selling stuff. I'm not honestly sure if they still had the thing about the plan for the paywalled transparency video. Later I saw a short reaction video to the drama that claimed all of those elements had now been removed from the LTT video.
I really doubt this post is by Linus directly. It's been about two days since the brand new CEO and the rest of the c-suite informed Linus that any communication he makes regarding stuff like this has to go through them now.
Hope you like the new one even more than the old one! (Oh, though now I think of it, another tip would be to get two or three of the same mask so it's easier to always have one freshly washed when you need it!)
Yet the solution is so simple. Let the them spend 20 – 35 % of their paid time on backlog. Let them refactor the architecture. Let them improve the code base. You know, that thing the Lean book talks about, the part that everyone overlooks, the part so critical yet so often overlooked that others wrote books that ride that one aspect home.
But why do that when instead you can just pretend those issues don't exist (or simply fail to understand them) and secure a bonus/promotion/personal favour by cutting "unnessecary" labour costs then celebrate by burbling on about how capitalism "maximises efficiency".
WAIT?! You made this comment an hour after I quoted and linked to the clarification from Cochrane that it is a misunderstanding that their study says cloth masks are not effective in response to ONE OF YOUR comments.
Have YOU read THAT?!
Don't be out here saying "OMG have you readed what Cochrane said about it?!" when not only have you misread it but also seemingly not read Cochrane's attempt to gently explain that to you!
A cloth mask is effective, read the Cochrane statement.
To be fair to them. It's not long since I pointed that out. They seemingly haven't seen my comments at all yet. Maybe they'll read them, read the statement, review their understanding of the paper and express that their perspective has changed. It's too soon to say that definitely wont happen! (So let's enjoy imagining it will while we can.)
Everything was new at some point. Things are named relative to when they happen, not relative to when you hear about them.
