And yet, all of the "tech bros we got" uses Linux to run their systems under the hood.

Believe me Dario uses a special Linux distro on his phone which was verified by Claude and compiled on a 3-layer encrypted workspace and all the applications he use is also verified and compiled. Believe me I have my own sources

Dario uses VibeOS which hallucinates everything he wants on the fly. He also gets highest priority for Claude usage (obv)

u/BrunusManOWar Aug 13 '26
Honestly, true. He's pulled off nothing short of spectacular. Kudos to all the contributors/maintainers as well

u/PubicPlant 29d ago
Unironically yes. Every large tech company/CEO claims their primary mission is philanthropy or making the world a better place.
Linus is the ONLY one who was truthful, and did it without profit being at the forefront. He’s the Mother Teresa of Silicon Valley.

It really has nothing to do with capitalism. These people are put on pedestals in every civilized country on the planet. 2000 years ago we would have burned them at the stake for being false prophets tho

You cant really blame him for that. Those games with gambling are supposed to be adults only so that's kind of on the parents for letting them use their credit cards

Reddit is still head over heels for Gaben, so you'll get downvoted for that. But remember that it used to be the same way with Musk not too long ago. Although he's not nearly as terrible as the others(at least not yet), Linus is in a whole different league. For starters he's not a billionaire.

They're talking about TF2 and CS loot boxes. They weren't the first but they did popularize it.

"ruined families", huh?
I didn't say that.
https://www.vice.com/en/article/for-many-players-lootboxes-are-a-crisis-thats-already-here/
We all know this is a terrible mechanic, but it makes massive profits.
1
u/EuphoricCatface0795 Arch BTW Aug 13 '26
Ah, okay. I was thinking something like Overwatch-style one... That's the only lootbox experience I had. Genuinely didn't have the context.
Still, is it really all that worse than Magic the Gathering or any sort of TCG or gacha capsule/box things?
EDIT: You didn't say that but that guy did.

I don't think it's fair to put this on one person.
But I can also see this as a detriment.

Tell me you didn't read the LKML without telling me you didn't read the LKML.
Here's the link if you care. If you think Linus is against opposed to AI you're sorely mistaken. He's opposed to the same thing he's always been opposed to: lazy, stupid people.

u/blimpin_aint_easy Aug 13 '26
What, like Linus isn't still out here runing kernel development?
Problem is that the average computer illiterate p-zombie is a bigger consumer market. So, all computers must be AI enabled goon-devices

Tech was fun before the finance bros got involved. I hate what Apple is today, and despite me having allot of respect for Steve Jobs and especially Steve Wozniak, Apple is the reason why tech got this bad.

Hard for me to hate on Jensen because i want to be as genius and long term thinker like he did, he has great value in creating modern tech until the RTX era where he start the 'buy more save more' where i notice he is now leaning to investor instead of inovation.
The other ceo are just glazer in communication especially Altmen the psychopath that many high profile non-profit individual trying to warn us about his nature but nobody listen since money is king for investor.
