Escape From New York: Louis Rossmann Edition - Hopefully he does not make Texas a bughive

[augment]

It's been a long time for Linus' reckoning, that is all I'm going to say.

nigga could've literally handled this shit so much better

@larossmann Thank you for having morals and standing up for what you believe in. It's uplifting to see.

I haven't watched it just yet but I also want to show appreciation for @larossmann. I'm gonna be interested to see how the video is.

 

[ChromaQuack]

ABSOLUTE. CLINTON (CAT). VICTORY.

 

[Coach Blue Pill]

FUCKING KILL HIM @larossmann GUT THE CANADIAN NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW

 

[LifeAlert]

@larossmann Make that cockgobbler cry. Make him delete his youtube channel so his shitty soyfaced mug never shows up in my recommended again

 

[Chug Smuckle]

Rossman goes full street nigga on Linus and I love it.

 

[Snorky]

Watched the whole thing, Louis really did torch the shit out of Linus. Truly a sight to behold.

 

[Finger Pistols]

DarkVapierAU, a lolcow known for sperging over his 14 PAGES document comparing reaction content to rape and crying over an Among Us game, left a comment on Louis's video sucking Linus's cock.



Louis responds to Matthew Craig Judge's 5 PHARAGRAPH response that nobody asked for. He just gets mogged by Louis.

This guy inserts himself in every random drama imaginable I swear to god. He's a GTA V speedrunner, who gives a fuck about his opinion on Linus Tech Tips?

 

[Hey Johnny Bravo]

Trump keeps winning, Louis keeps dunking on scumbag retards, and Mr. Clinton is adorable. 2025 is off to a great start.

 

[Gatdam Animal Person]

Clinton the cat is the only democrat I approve of. He is a democat and not a demonrat.

Adding the text from Steve, which was probably edited in after you took the screenshot. Updated archive snapshot here.

From Steve: I saw Louis Rossmann’s recent video in advance and I greatly appreciate his recommendations – I have let negative comments and criticisms shove me into a box that I no longer feel the need to defend and no longer feel familiar with. For GN, we are excited to continue sticking to just hardware and news, as we discussed earlier this week. We’ve been on a roll with what I love the most, which is testing. For GNCA, I’m excited for continuing investigations and coverage in a way that I feel is right. I have become paralyzed from paying attention to the standards of others and the specifics of labels. I have decided it is best to stop paying attention to those and no longer care to please those people. Going forward, we no longer care and we will produce our coverage in our way, to our standard, and in the way we think is right. I’ll be continuing to investigate companies and expose practices we feel are bad, and in particular, practices which are damaging to consumers.

For GN, we have a ton of hardware reviews and benchmarks on the way. For GNCA, we have some huge investigations in the works into new scams, some of which have affected our own staff. We are excited for these moves forward. Thank you.

I'm curious to know how far in advance Steve saw the video, before or after deciding to channel split; either way it's still a good idea.

Also, Louis autistically (correctly) notices that the whole page wasn't replaced, since the case studies are still underneath the picture and Steve's note.



Not sure how serious he's being, but as long as Steve does course correct I'd still call it a Rossman win.

 

[Cat tit bingo]

That alan parson joke at the end was pure gold especially @larossmann's smug satisfied smile.

 

[The Repeated Meme]

Wow.

 

[Sharpeteer]

I've replayed this video several times on my drive home tonight. It's good, and it's really a long time coming.

I remember watching those iMac Pro repair videos on LTT years ago, and I never went into that video series expecting a serious repair, but a fun entertaining video in the end with two guys I liked shooting the shit and having fun. Linus' email to Louis saying he apparently "broke" the board again (even though the computer was clearly working at the end of the video), so Louis should do what he wants, it makes me sick. It's classic emotional manipulation, and I absolutely hate it. It completely changes my perspective on those videos from before, and I'm sorry to hear you had to go through that Louis.

There's also a large amount of people in the comments on that video completely ignoring all the emotional manipulation of Linus with receipts, and don't like that their guy got called out on things there's documented proof of him doing.

People will resort to victim blaming to defend Linus. Why.

 

[Markass the Worst]

People will resort to victim blaming to defend Linus. Why.

Considering that people even defend Daniel Micay (guy who accuses people of attempted murder who haven't done that, like, at all) and blame Louis, some people are just retarded.

 

[Kees H]

Louis released a 1 hour long video on Linus Tech tips. The thumbnail and title makes it seem like he's very comfortable talking about Linus to me.

Archiving this video just because it's a masterpiece in how to call out someones bullshit and I don't want it to get lost to time:

[Atlas Sneezed]

Not related but did you see how he almost cracked up to tears when he talked about Steve and the photos? I miss Steve from NY.

 

[Pizdec]

It's nice to know that I was not the only one to come to the realization that Linus intentionally texted the wrong number. Fuck Linus, but I hope Louis doesn't push Steve into that realization, just guide him and let him take the steps when he can, as he seems interested in doing so already.

 

[batigol]

Soon as I read that in Steve's response post / community note it was transparent Linus TwatTips was playing games.

REDDITER TWO MINUTES OF HATE

@larossmann Why in the world do you use so much of your free time arguing with redditers? You wrote an essay responding to to every event some retarded redditer hallucinated that only 3 people are ever going to see. I thought you also swore reddit off after they banned custom clients, or whatever they did.

Why give people the time when they start off with "the government doesn't do retarded shit for no reason" and "you wouldn't have been fucked by the new york government if you didn't deserve it". You have someone who hates you want wants the worst for you because you told him his repair was shit 8 years ago, and you're giving him free therapy. You're not going to convince someone who despises you and makes up random shit that they shouldn't do that over an argument on reddit. You did accidentally dox his reddit account though, so that was funny at least.

Side note, you got some important information wrong on your video on Pirate Software. Normally you're impossible to get in touch with, but everyone on reddit who makes up random shit gets a four thousand word response. Do I have to make up some bullshit about you running over me with your bike? What about that time I saw you punch a toddler?

They wouldn't have mailed a notice to Maine if that wasn't an address connected to the business at one point in time.

The government. Is under. No obligation. To pay to have someone explain the law to you.

If he wasn't doing all this shady shit, he wouldn't have gotten "run out" of New York.

I even went to one of his brunch meetups about a decade ago... Where he spent the whole time pushing his premium subscription at us. In person.

Ah yeah, his forum! How could I forget his $350/yr scheme to have access to schematics he doesn't legally own... only to have takedown notices on all those PDFs and no refunds. What a fucking hero

New York had a major iDevice theft epidemic about 10 or 15 years ago now, laws were written then that absolutely stopped the chop shops.

And you're standing in defense of this? That's just incompetence, like even just for repair purposes, if your computer system isn't asset tagging devices when they come in... what the fuck?

On the topic of redditers (inshallah funko pops are carcenogenic) they're usually not literally retarded but choose to have a -20 IQ debuff applied to them because it's more convenient. They actually manage to convince themselves that certain things are true using retard logic, but when necessary, they'll suddenly return to 95 IQ. One of these retard-isms you see constantly goes alone the lines of "well you said something good about this guy 6 months ago... and now you're crticizing him? hypocrite much?" I saw a lot of people doing this with Linus.

Their other line that makes me want to smash their heads in with a big rock is "two things can be true at once". No shit, retard, that's something only someone with actual brain damage would think was a saliant point. They watched too much marvel and can only think in quippy remarks thrown out by spiderman while he punches space hitler.
