After all and briefly touching this in a conversation a few days earlier, finally took a bit of that time of being grounded to watch that "TempleOS - Down The Rabbit Hole" clip. And now am not feeling particular easy. I've been watching parts of this from way afar back then but never really did dig deep into it, lacking both time and interest to be spent on hobbyist operating systems without any practical purpose asides being "fun in programming". It always felt weird, the website and the system itself felt weird and it all had that appearance of yet another narcissistic hacker in his bedroom at his parents house writing code written all over it. It ended up to be the story of a difficult person living a difficult and sad life. It ended up to be the story of dynamics of online communication and communities, too. And it probably leaves a bunch of other thoughts behind as well. (See youtube.com/watch?v=UCgoxQCf5J… ... requires YouTube login or some proxy to circumvent that as there's an age restriction on it.) #linkdump #down the rabbit hole #templeos
