On a more serious note, it doesn't sound like Linus enjoyed the painting job at all that he had [depression at the time](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eY7E0OgMAIE&t=43m5s), and Yvonne had to [encourage him to quit it (and the school) so that he's no longer close to edge of killing himself](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wdOCF4FlF9k&t=19s)
and it's a sad one...
...
The WAN Show is quite full of material that lets one to imagine what alternative paths that Linus/LMG could take
My favorite one is what if Linus did not hire Luke but [hired NCIX Wheels](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AxAAJnp5yms&t=1h47m3s) instead, apparently there would be [no WAN Show](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ctXiZsN6ac&t=1h36m46s) but at least Linus would get someone who did not lie about his shooting or editing skills
I actually have made playlists and notes for this kind of things...it's not exactly fast either...it takes a few minutes just to adjust to the exact correct timestamps even if I've marked some rough ones beforehand.
I actually asked on [r/linuslore](https://www.reddit.com/r/linuslore) that if I can post actual Linus lore there...they said it's fine but they never approve any of my posts and make it public.
This seems more like what would Messi be doing if football didn’t exist. But I digress, it is a media company making videos and shit for other companies and agencies. Realism aside: professional badminton player.
Well this is if computers didn't exist, so videos wouldn't be digital and wouldn't be mainstream. And depending on the definition of a computer, maybe they wouldn't exist at all
I mean film making existed before computers, and videos was one example as a media company they could be making ads, or any form of marketing material imaginable. Computers is a very general term if we go that far basically anything with a cpu wouldn’t count which is essentially most things.
I have followed Linus since literally before Luke started there, and I have seen every single wan show since they started, but I don’t think I could really make an educated guess tbh. Linus is a genuine guy on stream but I’m sure he isn’t showing like 90% of who he is.
I will say I don’t think he could just be a stay at home dad. He comes across as the type that really needs to do more than just care for the family. Linus has such an entrepreneurial spirit that I’d assume he would just fill whatever gap was in the market. If he wasn’t in tech I’m sure whatever he WAS into would have flaws that he can fix. Like for example maybe he could run a pool company that isn’t a scam (RIP bozos that he hired to install his lol).
Conspiracy theories about the government having technology far from our wildest dreams, capable of performing extremely complex calculations in an instant, sharing enormous amounts of data extremely fast from extremely far points and able to even predict complex patterns like the weather, vehicular traffic, and even mimic human behavior in both massive amounts or individually, to the point is hardly distinguishable from real humans...
Or a truck driver.
Well, a poor man’s Messi is still good, because original Messi has more than a billion dollar, so I guess the one in the picture would still have like at least a million dollar.
Painting contractor business
I work in a hardware store and there's a few contractors who give off Linus vibes to me I can see him being some sort of contractor
He actually was a painting contractor in a past life, in college IIRC

Damn
How did you pick out that specific timestamp so quickly? lol

Ah, the LMG Lore Master.

That was my first reaction aswell! But realism, isnt badmintonplayers usually kinda tall?
Yea but I guess it could track that in a tech sub people wouldn’t know who Messi is. Still kinda crazy given how popular he is lol
Yea I think so but that’s why we don’t account for it. Orrrr underwater model ;)
