“Contrarian” is too nice a label.

Tricking rocks into being calculators is magic indeed.

Third eye opened and a forth one too, so it must be good.

“Technical taste” is the wrong angle here, and I see this a lot in FOSS. No amount of “good” or “great” technicality makes up for the fact that his personal views are abhorrent.

The first question we should ask is “are they a decent person” and the answer here is a hard no, so technical taste doesn’t even matter.

he’s def. found other fedi things that had his name in it.

I hope this is a swing and miss at satire, but honestly I can’t tell.

Nope, certainly a real and hateful person. He used to be cohost of the Linux Action Show, marketing manager at SuSe for a bit, and was popular for a series of talks called “Linux Sucks.” Somewhere in or around the beginning of the pandemic he went down the right wing rabbit hole. He is totally useless now, he’s a transphobic as fuck, and generally just has a hateful message about most things.

He religiously monitors his name, wouldn’t be surprised if he see this. If he is reading this: man, you just make me sad now. Please get help.

Personally I think we should just ignore him, every mention gives him the possibility to spread his hateful message. He’s spineless, let him wriggle in obscurity.

You can’t be serious.

I’m waiting for the epic metal song about this.

Finnix… CD Roms underwater sounds challenging.

Look at all the OpenBSDs down there!

Name calling is what people do when they don’t have any rational argument left, and you’ve done it twice.

Everyone loves increased work load and wow that’s a lot of power to… do what exactly.

You don’t need to resort to name calling, you could make a compelling argument instead…

Send Mata maid asap, its urgent.

It doesn’t “learn” anything, its a database with linear algebra. Using anthropomorphic adjectives only helps to entrench this useless and wasteful technology to regular people.
