You guys are awesome. You've taken a bunch of sand and made it do some amazing things. FOSS devs especially, you do this for the good of everyone for little benefit to yourselves. You all deserve a medal.

Hah, I wanted to check what it linked to. Both funny and accurate.

The link to his youtube still works, and he's been posting fortnite videos recently.
There's a video from 10 months back, and his health doesn't look great.

He got a bad case of COVID-19, was in a coma, and is permanently paralyzed. Looks like he's got a GoFundMe for medical transport from Florida to Texas, where he'd have better support and hopefully be able to do voice work.

I guarantee that most contributors who aren't being paid are doing their commits out of spite, but I can definitely applaud them for being as vindictive as they are.

This. The best code I've ever written and the one I'm proudest of, has been written out of spite. XD

i wonder if spite is the reason why the grapheneos people do their thing. lol
Vendetta9076@sh.itjust.works · 4 pts · 86d
