@zzt what is it that Brodie actually does? there was a period where all youtube wanted to show me was him shouting at his microphone in his bedroom?
@kyle_pegasus I have honestly never watched one of his videos, his thumbnails never appealed to me and the topics looked like puffed-up crap I’d learn more about from fedi in fewer words
@zzt @kyle_pegasus i watched one so you don't have to ever, it's 20 minutes of reading maiing list posts while shouting in Australian
@kyle_pegasus @zzt Linux news, mainly
anyway that's yet another unsub 
can this shit please *stop*
@techokami @zzt well I mean, he's certainly shouting about things he's read about linux with some funko pops behind him. but i can read that myself, without the shouting mum's house bedroom man
@kyle_pegasus @techokami @zzt yeah basically his niche is 20 minutes deep dives into reading out mailing list posts on a topic while shouting
between DHH, brodie, that fucking ex-googler Linux is Best guy doing an anti-Palestine disinformation campaign on fedi, lunduke, liam of gamingonlinux, linus torvalds himself… it really feels like a lot of the loudest influencers and personalities in this space are mask-off assholes up to no good, doesn’t it? it really feels like they’re doing that thing fascists do where they normalize casually doing horrid shit in a space.
@zzt if i pivot to linux i'm taking you with me zzt i'm warning you
@davidgerard oh thank fuck, you’re saying I can sustain myself on complaining about Linux? deal
@zzt @davidgerard I'm about to pivot to the fucking beach I swear.
@errant @davidgerard you’ll be left behind (on vacation in paradise)
@zzt @davidgerard I mean, hear me out, would it be unethical to start a company that claims they can upload your conciousness to a computer, even if in fact that cannot happen. Like, would that be more unethical than "cryogenic suspension"? I ask because they aren't leaving me behind _fast enough_ and I'd like them to please loose the capacity to interact with me as rapidly as possible.
@zzt Wait, what did Liam do? Should I even ask?
@davidgerard @piepants yep! I called liam (of gamingonlinux, not the other one) out for a real bad LLM take that he decided to double down on. for some reason this made him delete his account and start purging posts, which drew a bunch of attention to his old posts. and of course people found and took screenshots of a bunch of bigoted shit he’d said in the past.
