Par for the course of my recent comment regarding theprimeagen.
If you’ve ever watched his live streams, he lets the mask slip from time to time. The point when I realized he was a crypto-fash was when he said “my favourite conspiracy theory is the one that Michelle Obama is a man.” There are other tells and dog whistles if you pay attention.
It should have been obvious earlier to be honest. His on screen personality is like he modelled himself on a slightly less theatrical version of the Dr. Disrespect character and then applied it to programming.
“my favourite conspiracy theory is the one that Michelle Obama is a man.”
That isn’t even a good conspiracy. (that is also why it is a dogwhistle, if you enjoyed those kinds of crazy conspiracies you would say ‘transvestigations where everybody famous is actually trans’ is my fave (and yes they do it to everybody, it is very dumb). Focussing only on Michelle is odd, and shows in the kind of environments you hang out with (My example would be Andrew Tate, but it also isn’t funny, as it is part of the wider ‘make trans people unsafe’ campaign, and people should understand that))).
can i just say that I appreciate your lisp-inspired comment structure?
I have meds for that, but every now and then I don’t correct myself and go with the flow, my mind goes on tangents. I’m fun at parties.
I never understood what this damn distro is about. All I hear is “IT GOT DEFAULTS!” whenever I try to look it up. I always prefer to stick with upstream distros unless a downstream project makes a significant change.

That’s cause that’s all it is lol, it’s just arch bundled with some guys dotfiles
So much fuss over someone’s dotfiles and progressive web apps
DHH has always had a cult of personality, since the very early days of Rails (I started hearing about his boring ass in 2005. Ugh!).
He attracts people who are into hype. Around 2013 junior developers loved to say “did you hear what DHH said?” And I’d have to explain to them that I didn’t care because he seemed like a douche and rarely said anything someone smarter than him hadn’t already said many times.
He is wealthy and has a soapbox, so he is a dumb person’s idea of a smart person.
Since the start!
Tested it yesterday. Don’t really like it. Don’t get me wrong it looks nice and seems to be kinda polished, but its way to much work to remove all the stupid shit I don’t need. DHH says its for professionals. Arch and Rolling release distro don’t fit with working professionally in my opinion.
I’m happy if it gets more poeple to try linux but it’s not for me. Debian all the way and despite what DHH said, you can install hyprland on debian (and even ubuntu) no problem. He seems to be kinda a linux noob :)
