Oh and the lack of music and aggressive editing makes it flow differently. I dunno. I love the vibe of this tour.

Linus' business or businesses are really successful but I think what I respect about him most is that he reinvests all the money made. Be it something like this in the form of buying space so their production workflow is easier, or human costs like on their live show he said has all of his staff in a position where they all own their houses. My point being his businesses make money but he doesn't horde it. It's reinvested into the businesses or the people that power them. I have a ton of respect for that. This was so interesting! :)

He really values his people because they are a part of the LTT family. And you take care of your family.

[@vebjsand]

Agreed. The world needs more of that. There's enough billionaires taking 95+ percent of the profits for themselfs year after year after year. Take a few percent and give back to the people making it possible and a huge chunk into reinvesting and expanding, then a chunk for safety (so people can keep their jobs for a solid amount of time if the business isn't making profits) etc. After a few years of success, you're very entitled to harvest the benefits for yourself as an owner and/or investor to a larger degree, provided the business still stays profitable and the workers get a reasonable share of the profits (we're talking percentages without decimals ofcourse). I, and society in general, dislike people who just wants to grab as much money as possible doing whatever gives the most profit and then leave it behind once they've reached their income goal, without any pride in what they've created.

[@jora9655]

21:22 I don't get how anybody could complain about this. There's nothing better for integrity and legitimacy of your reviews than non-tech sponsors, because obviously, every time your sponsored by a company from the same industry you make videos about, you automatically enter a moral conflict that's damaging your believability, no matter how subtle. I'm also very glad Linus takes sponsoring so seriously, that despite the "average consumer" not caring at all, he still is careful about how he makes sponsored content, as to not risk his integrity. It's great to hear that.

[@revoschefe1651]

great points Jora, i agree completely. If all the ads you saw during a youtube video were about similar products that the video content is about; the whole video is always percieved as being done on purpose; a setup for the sponsor, and not the video host.

This is a perfectly reasonable expectation if you know Linus Tech Tips. Speaking of knowing Linus, his browser history can tell someone a lot more about you than you'd expect. While this wristband might ensure it'll be deleted in case of an emergency, there is no guarantee that nobody is making a copy as we speak. That's where today's sponsor comes in, Tunnelbear VPN. A VPN or "virtual private network" will take your Internet traffic and have it take a detour through their computers. They will then pretend it is their own traffic to anyone in the outside, allowing you to choose which country you are from. That way nobody can know that it is your Internet history and you will stay safe from any "black hat" hackers or government surveillance.

Did Linus say LMG is spending around 250k CAD on LTX? Holey sheet that puts it into perspective just how big its become in just a few years, and just how much income they must make to support such a massive venture. This was a great video btw, everyone was relaxed and enjoying each others company, and it was extremely interesting to take a peek behind the scenes and see a little bit more of just how much work (and money) goes into making LMG the powerhouse of the tech world that it is.

[@PiousSlayer]

He expects it'll most likely be a "loss" and isn't really concerned with breaking even, or even profiting. I think that's commendable.

[@kyoko703]

The original LTX was for the fans of LMG. As it evolved, it is more about the community and to grow the community it is definitely more than just LMG and it's about the relationships you have within the space. That's why you find other creators wanting to come to be a part because they know this is what a Vidcon/E3/CES should be when you have it all rolled up into one. I suspect they will do very well this year and I can't wait to see what next year will be like. Eventually, I would not be surprised if manufacturers show up and do a product announcement at LTX. It only make sense if you know your fan base will be there, and the various content creators will be there, why wouldn't you announce a new product just to get in on the fun and to have a good PR? It's only natural.

[@PiousSlayer]

@@CalculatedRiskAK fair enough however this Gamers Nexus video is proof it can be well done and not look like a 'mindless machine'.

[@Maxim0M1]

@@caincha This kind of video is not exactly great for Linus' short attention span audience. It looks personal and handcrafted (and not machine-y) because it's not very produced, but it is also very long and boring. When you're making really short, effective and efficient videos targeted at a wide demographic that tends to have a short attention span, it's hard not to make it look overly produced. Linus managed to do it, though, by using self deprecating humor. Not doing that would result in his videos looking professional, sure, but it'd also make his videos look "less human", so it's a decent trade off. To sum it up, Linus making himself look dumb is by design. Without that design, his videos would lose a lot of charm.

@@Maxim0M1 Short attention span audience? Maybe the casual masses, but my favourite content is the weekly podcast they do

@@LapisPebble Yeah, the casual masses happen to be the majority of the viewers and you can see that for yourself by looking at the view numbers. Linus knows this perfectly, and that's why most of his videos are scripted so specifically. It's a good strategy.

[@RobertD_83]

Linus and his team get a lot of shit, but he really is a leader in the space. And he's trying (through floatplane) to give not only his staff a plan b but also other creators if KZbin goes too much further to shit. He seems to be a pretty damn smart guy who has surrounded his self with other smart people. Whether you think he's a sellout or not I think he's done very well and is continuing to further their craft, and the fact that he's honest and trying to make ethical moves when not being forced to also speaks for itself. The state of "capitalism" these days employs basically no consumer protections. As long as you're making as much money as you can, who cares how you do it (at least that's how I see it). So them making an ethical "line in the sand" to me speaks highly of his character.

[@MikeMartin-ot9ic]

With capitalism, consumers will often, and given enough time always, pick up on bullshit. That line in the sand is important, because it's also the best way to do business for the long term.

It just means we'll get more of that type of content, now from 2 different perspectives.

Barnacules: Pick me!

This is old, but what sort of Mechanical Engineer degree doesn't include a CAM-CNC class? And machine shop classes. Fabrication classes, etc. I know some Universities are just lame excuses to get in a big debt, but an engineer course should have plenty of actual practice besides theory, including on how to actually manufacture things, else is just a pseudo-engineering production/industrial administration of sorts. Or as my mom calls it Paper Engineering! The issue with that specific degree might be few electronics and control/automation theory and practice(still has to have some).

Watching this after the LTT ethics conundrum.

[@Sawta]

The talk about sponsorships and how LMG deals with it day-to-day actually gives a lot of insight into Linus' perspective on the RAID Shadow Legends thing some people got bent out of shape over. Having enough employees to compartmentalize certain aspects of your business is not just efficient, but a logical way of doing business.

[@suryav2817]

It was calm and casual and honestly is the best format you guys can possibly have, so do more these kind of collabs

[@Muscleduck]

I think people actually care a lot about the difference between a spotlight and a review. I think it's admirable that you make this clear distinction between the 2. I never really noticed it consciously until you talked about it though, but it always felt that way subconsciously. ALso 'Kingpin, the overclocker'. Like Linus doesn't know who Kingpin is :-)

[@finlandjourney6065]

The reason you didn't make the distinction is cos most don't either. Linus is not using proper vocabulary here. Paid shilling or sponsored by would be far more fitting.

[@HazewinDog]

as a regular LTT viewer... I did not expect this would be as interesting as it was! Awesome stuff, thank you both!

[@AuthenTech]

Great tour, nice job

[@sharppig]

:D

[@KinxBreadsworth]

i just love how down to earth linus is.

[@ScathArachAK]

I really enjoy how close the tech content makers come together to help each other but also make sure their is plenty of friendly competition

[@neoqueto]

Steve, could you... could you host a TechLinked? :D

[@buffdogg]

That's actually a really good idea

[@ElGuerreroMaya]

This comment definitely doesn't have enough likes

[@A_ARAFAT]

POV: You're here from the new Gamers Nexus Video

[@BSMODS]

Fun stuff its amazing to see the continued change at LMG. You've also seen what our CNC router is like we have the same model but in a 4' x 8' config. See you at LTX!!!!!

[@aaronperron]

I felt like I was watching an LTT video. The tech community rocks!

[@B33rsauce]

Linus Tech Tips needs to get up with Adam Savage to help them optimize their workshop

[@dailythenoob]

Oh my God that's a good idea Maybe Linus can tell them to QC their fucking videos too

[@dalecomer5951]

Adam Savage has a shop where he makes videos. Here they have a studio with a set which they pretend is a shop for the purpose of making videos.

[@juancampuzano4841]

Watch one Linus video then watch one GN video "Perfectly balanced, as all things should be".

[@schalkvanheerden6151]

Great video. Love to see the creators 'community' creating content that pays respect to each other. Looking forward to the LTX cover.

[@CrashJay]

Its like the spongebob episode where it was revealed Krabs and Plankton were friends.

[@BAdventures]

Enjoyed you both being down to earth and talking shop. So much going on behind the scenes 😎👍

[@goodwinliam1]

Really enjoyed this video, not just because you get to see the set and how it works, but because it's an open honest discussion on how tech youtube channels function and how much effort you have to put in something (life) gives you benefits in the long run. It's like a demonstration that all your hard work pays off in the end. Working together - sharing content of each others proves that interoperability and openess is key to being successful. You guys are all great keep up the good work.

[@TKIvanov]

Nubia: sends a review unit. Linus: bashes it in like 4 different videos, before destroying it in the actual review.

[@PineapplePi5634]

somehow this video is recommended to me after watching GN's LTT video. oh, youtube algorithm.

[@wilhelm391]

This now a Classic.

[@theSimonManuel]

Almost skipped this video because of the many tours of LMG that I've watched and then I thought I'd just let it run in the background. I kid you not, I watched the entire thing & there is so much more that I haven't seen before. And to see both of you just chilling was a lot more comfortable than, if say, MKBHD did this! Very cool!

[@martins7194]

Great video. Love your way of interviewing and the genuine interest. Obviously, there's a friendship there. Super relaxed and fun to watch.

[@Violetlsdoingokay]

This is only proof of steve having officially joined the technological pantheon.

[@wull2034]

A CNC mill and a lathe.. I'm getting more jealous of the new machines than all the fancy hardware

[@thejoyghost17]

Is anyone here watching after the drama?

[@lactobacillusprime]

Excellent cross over video! Thanks for doing this collab! Behind the scenes of LTT.

[@Anxiou5Panda]

This is one the best videos I have ever seen! It goes to show that KZbinrs aren't just competing in order to get more subscribers to earn more but some of them are actually friends working together to improve not just the industry but also their viewers' knowledge (and perhaps skills) about something, in this case, technology. Kudos to Steve and Co. as well as to LMG for their great contributions.

[@codybroken]

Summary: Linus has buckets of cash and he's spending it. But seriously, thank you Steve for what amounts to first class journalism. Your video is a comprehensive exploration of the LMG operations.

[@jadoei13]

In the extremely unlikely case Linus reads this; I really appreciate the way showcases and reviews are handled, while in the beginning I can still ignore some of the "paid reviews", I do very quickly lose interest as there is just no real information worth listening to. At best it only slightly clouds my judgement of a product, and as a result it just isn't worth watching. Thanks for all the improvements behind the scenes as well, highly appreciated. Thanks for the tour Steve, probably watched half a dozen tours by now, of the same space, but it is still different and interesting every time. Edit: Really enjoyed the conversations, thanks for those as well, interesting to hear all the stuff going on there
