    Bad take imo. The Wan Show (the podcast this clip is from) has been around for over 12 years and started back when live video podcasts were hardly a thing, so I feel like it should get at least part of an exception to the “2 guys sitting at microphones” point. Many people in here seem to dislike LTT for some variety of reasons, some valid, some not, but I don’t think their podcast existing should be one of them.

    I can’t really comment on Linus’s voice as that is entirely subjective.

    The point they were trying to make here is that despite how apple has made many feel, they are still a soulless corporation, no different than any other.

      Sure, but the WAN show kinda sucks, it’s basically Linus spewing some nonsense and Luke trying to keep him somewhat rational.

        It’s often a place for Linus to rant about how he understands business better than his audience.

          Yeah, and that’s largely what soured me on it. I watched a few, and it basically seemed like a “I know better” type “discussion” instead of an actual discussion about pros/cons to certain things.
