Much respect to Torvalds, but the LTT dude sets off my creep alarms.

Dunno if you are familiar with this. Supposedly it was resolved, but I'm not familiar with how or who conducted the investigation.

The gist of the allegations is in the last couple paragraphs.

Yeah, this whole thing was disappointing, even if it wasn't against the law per se.

Hiring a fan and then being playfully toxic with them as their boss was never going to end well.

Like yes, it gets overblown, but it was still a mistake on his part.

Very funny video
Didn’t know Torvalds was this chill

[–] popcar2@piefed.ca 9 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

He's always been pretty chill unless someone is trying to merge code he doesn't like into the Linux kernel, then he'd throw 20 back-to-back emails insulting that guy and go back to the Linus we know.

[–] de_lancre@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago

He's pretty chill, unless you break userspace. In that case, Linus will break you. But pretty cool otherwise

[–] the_q@lemmy.zip 22 points 16 hours ago

Linus T seems to be a genuine guy. This was the best ltt video in a very long time.

Why are LTT's teeth so... Yellow?

Edit: oh, he has braces with yellow rubber bands. I wonder why he went with yellow of ahh colors?

According to other comments, they are supposed to be transparent… then he ate butter chicken or some food with dye.

[–] SystemL@literature.cafe 11 points 15 hours ago

Yep. Never get transparent. They always yellow.

[–] jol@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 16 hours ago (2 children)

That's gross, but TIL. Certainly he can afford new ones?

[–] vodka@feddit.org 12 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

From watching wan show these bands are ones you need to have the orthodontist change, and he can probably not be arsed to change those just for a discoloration when they're changed on a schedule anyway.

[–] jol@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 13 hours ago

I wouldn't be bothered either, unless I was the host and fce of a daily show.

[–] rtxn@lemmy.world 7 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

He can't, he had to re-run a benchmark.
