  • Try things out. Get an old pc with some old hard drives no one will want and get to it!

    Just install whatever on it and start asking yourself what you want to do with it.

    I started on Ubuntu Server and ended up on Unraid. Caused alot of problems along the way but in the end I learned alot to where I dont stress too much when stuff goes south.

    Also, when you truly do invest into a proper server. Consider the drives you are buying are gonna die one day. It may take years to happen but it will happen!













  • All the drama started from this video

    Gamers Nexus then made a video breaking down a bunch of issues with LMG

    Linus responded 3 hours after GN posted their video.

    The response was rushed and poorly made. Gamers Nexus the next day made a response.

    Which made LinusTechTips push out a video addressing some of the concerns and what they are gonna do.

    Then, an ex-employee came out, stating many of the issues they had with the company.

    LinusTechTips on twitter (or x i guess?) stated they are looking into it.

    Philip Defranco summarizes everything within 10 minutes and includes a couple of questions they asked LMG. I thought he did pretty well, so its alot better than spending several hours looking into everything.


  • Philip Defranco’s team asked…

    “What are your thoughts on members of the community feeling this initial controversy wasn’t taken seriously due to jokes about store plugs, kicks to sponsores, and the video addressing the situation being monetized?”

    And LMG responded…

    “We’re LMG. Even when our content is serious, we have elements of fun in it. This has always been our style and we wanted to send a message to our community that just because the suits are talking about workflows and processes, the fun isn’t going away.”

    I get what they were trying for, but it didn’t work out at all. This was the ONE time they should’ve been serious the entire video.
