I always wondered if Linus was actually a slimy POS, but this Billet Labs situation has cemented it for me. If you haven't watched the Gamers Nexus followup video, definitely watch it.
I'm not really sure how this situation makes linus a "slimey piece of shit". Incompetent, maybe. Bad at management, sure. Linus probably had no hand in any part until the part where he was told they fucked up. I don't think there was malice in any part of the exchange, just incompetence.
