Microsoft really paying Linus to promote the shitbox🥵
Did I just get clickbated
Sony predicted to sell more next gen consoles? Bit early to make that prediction… It’s 2 horse race, yes, with Nintendo do their own thing, but Microsoft does have the more powerful machine this time (at least from the start).
Ah I already see all the disappointed children that asked for a ps5 but get the xbox for their birthday and asking their mom why but she responds with the timeless line: "the gamestop employee told me it was better"
1:56 „A small number of customers“…Louis Rossmann has entered the chat.
5:47 oh goodness, I thought running it on Minecraft sheep were enough~
Linus is very biased for Xbox huh?
I dont even have chrome dl to any of my computers or devices. So THERE!
I want to eat some of that NASA cheese
Came here for sony update
Why do they have to yell from the background when you can’t even hear them, is this supposed to be funny?
people are stupid. so easily manipulated. it still shocks me to this day. the old analogy of people being sheep keeps proving itself time and time again.
anyone with half a brain should be staying away from the quest 2. i know its new and shiny, buy come on guys. look a little closer would ya.
And what do you know Linus the PS5 will outsell the Xbox and that’s a FACT YOU CAN TAKE TO THE BANK
Sure, use Chrome to watch internet porn with the oculus rift. The rest of your life you will get targeted advertisements for midget-sized kimonos and vacations to Tokyo’s red light district.
I gave my nephews an Xbox one. Then I bought one an SUV for his 16th birthday and he said he wanted a Maserati, but at least it is “spacious.” I feel awful for buying American, really and truly awful let me tell you.
Google keep suggesting me to convert to youtube, but then say my youtube account is not eligible. 🤣
Not buying any of them…. the xbox series s is $500 here, series x and ps5 cost $700
Facebook is the only reason i don’t have vr. So sad, as it could have helped me, but nope, guess that dream is dead now & i am stuck with my issues forever.
Firefox is way better then the memory hog chrome.
Make your socket bigger 4:33, that’s what you call it
I hope Mark enjoyed watching me play beat saber for the forst time while sitting on the toilet…
Gamestop being encouraged to make themselves a defunct business?
Lol the left is banning Qanon because they don’t want competition with their conspiracies lol. Q never called for violence, they are just afraid of their own shadow.
Guys, quit the off camera banter, I don’t know what you’re thinking. It’s lame, it’s dumb and pointless.
I love that the CC picks up Linus as Lioness
I’m happy to switch from Google Play music over to YouTube music, the only thing that has stopped me is that the doesn’t seem to be a "cast" button to cast to a speaker on wifi like a Sonos. GPM has it but YTM seems to not. Would love if anyone can prove me wrong

People who saw SAO seeing Oculus quest 2: Oh no!
That’s right, Firefox is excellent!
Sony is predicted to sell more console because people are more likely to stay with their brand instead of starting all new on a different one.
I am so glad that google is censoring and taking down content it does not agree with. By the way quit the BS, most of the channels are not promoting violence. They do lift the lid on rampant paedophilia murder and satanic activities though.
Oh yeah, my bad Epstein killed himself, the royals and Margaret Thatcher didn’t know about Jimmy Saville, Sammy Danczuk Labour MP didn’t use parliamentary privilege to accuse Janner of raping and torturing children in the confines of parliament, Bill Gates didn’t go to Pedo Island, isn’t the biggest financial backer to the WHO and so on, nope all "conspiracy theories" well, they are theories inside the minds of those denying reality that is.
I mean at least firefox isn’t backed by the disgusting sleazy corporation that is Google
Next episode, playing Doom ON Linus’s deepfake
For the quest its not really about privacy for me but the fact that Facebook support is garbage. I don’t use Facebook but let’s say I make an account just for the Quest 2 They ban me when they do their yearly scrub of spam accounts. Now what?
They’re sold out everywhere
What’s with the other dude talking in the background? I’m so distracted.
Why not report the real story about Qanon?
Title….
Y’all this is not deep fake linus, this is transparent tv dimension linus!
Good luck selling Sony, PlayStation!
Riley forgot to wear his glasses today.
How much did Reginator of Nintendo fame has a say in this?
stay calm its a commercial https://twitter.com/nicokim18?lang=en
Riley: Linus…
Captionist: Lioness?
"Time for the buttplugs, brought to you by Vesi"
"Don’t be evil" and Google? that goes as well together as "Be more tolerant" and Adolf Hitler.
Firefox is actually pretty good for these two reasons:
1) Less RAM being wasted while multitasking
2) The mobile version can use ad-blocking extensions
So YouTube joins Twitter and Facebook in becoming an anti-democratic censorship platform… GREAT
Lioness is his new name?
YouTube Caption is amazing as always
Nice beard you don’t look like ellen anymore 🤔😂
Cool, just another reason to avoid Gamestop. I don’t care to give them life support off of online games. Although I really have to wonder how Microsoft would even intend to track which units are sold through Gamestop.
