I don't

2018-02-07 06:02:34 UTC  

but I mean

2018-02-07 06:02:48 UTC  

I do have nearly 9000 posts on the fuckers forum

2018-02-07 06:16:42 UTC  

The forum ain't bad tbh

2018-02-07 06:51:02 UTC  

>i dont care about it
>i have 9000 posts there
what does he mean by that <:thenk:329322130804047872>

2018-02-07 06:51:42 UTC  

I don't care about the dude himself

2018-02-07 06:51:53 UTC  

but the forum I nolifed at one point

2018-02-07 06:52:17 UTC  

helped me find out that human stupidity is still in the genepool to a large extent

2018-02-07 06:55:38 UTC  

Why do people care about that channel? He shilled himself on /g/ until he became a forced meme

2018-02-07 07:03:09 UTC  

Not particularly.

2018-02-07 07:03:19 UTC  

He mostly appealed to the 'normies getting into tech' audience

2018-02-07 07:03:34 UTC  

as well as "i'm fucking retarded and no idea how to build PC" audience

2018-02-07 07:04:38 UTC  

He's definitely milquetoast, but there's nothing really detestible about him.

2018-02-07 07:05:18 UTC  

inb4 the buttmad that arose from him telling someone pirating and reposting his videos to fuck off

2018-02-07 07:06:05 UTC  

I'm close with the dude who ran the VesselRips discord and was a mod on the sub

2018-02-07 07:06:48 UTC  

essentially the entire situation boiled down to some dude hosting his videos on a domain

2018-02-07 07:07:00 UTC  

and the domain had.... his name on the whois

2018-02-07 07:07:01 UTC  

so

2018-02-07 07:07:08 UTC  

linus tracked him down fairly easily

2018-02-07 07:07:11 UTC  

told him to stop

2018-02-07 07:07:14 UTC  

and he did as such

2018-02-07 07:07:19 UTC  

for a while

2018-02-07 07:07:53 UTC  

then just blocked the country of Canada on Cloudflare and took the site back up

2018-02-07 07:08:13 UTC  

>trying to geoblock someone who shills tunnelbear regularly

2018-02-07 07:08:24 UTC  

<:shiggy:232792354610872320>

2018-02-07 07:08:48 UTC  

Yep

2018-02-07 07:08:52 UTC  

He realised real quick

2018-02-07 07:08:55 UTC  

emailed him again

2018-02-07 07:09:06 UTC  

and he took it down for real after being threatened with a lawsuit

2018-02-07 07:10:36 UTC  

>not buying who.is protection

2018-02-07 07:10:58 UTC  

Linus fan base everyone

2018-02-07 07:12:31 UTC  

Meh. I hope Floatplane or w/e is successful, if only because Google shouldn't have so much of a stranglehold on the livelihoods of video content creators

2018-02-07 07:13:05 UTC  

If you get floatplane you get a forum badge

2018-02-07 07:13:28 UTC  

I've seen a lot of people with em

2018-02-07 07:13:32 UTC  

I...don't care? I haven't posted on an actual forum since like, 2009

2018-02-07 07:13:44 UTC  

the future is now, old man

2018-02-07 07:13:47 UTC  

I'm fairly sure it's actually pretty successful

2018-02-07 07:15:51 UTC  

I feel bad for Cody's Lab, too

2018-02-07 07:16:41 UTC  

getting bullied by youtube for his genuinely informative videos, meanwhile there's gorillians of WE ARE NUMBER ONE BUT FIRE UP THOSE FRIERS EVERY TIME HE SAYS "WE ARE NUMBER ONE"

2018-02-07 07:19:09 UTC  

I don't mind Linus
