after a 10min rant on #LAS, note Bryan's apology? a blog post of (a not really) sorry, not a word on the latest LAS, like it never happened
about 11 months ago from pino-
@thistleweb Funny I just read an article about linux podcasts in my linux format that came this month that mentioned their show came in 2nd
-
@thistleweb I was pretty amazed when I heard it yesterday
-
@swathe newspapers like front page accusations, then forced apologies tucked away in page 30 under the classifieds, where it's easy missed
-
@thistleweb I haven't read the blog apology yet, will go check it out
-
@swathe in audio / video he wouldn't able to hide the smarmy "you know I don't really mean it right" look as he apologises
-
@thistleweb a sore loser
-
@lstench Bryan's ego rules him, he's desperate for a proper wiki page but can't create it himself, those who do,it's deleted "not important"
-
@thistleweb No, I must correct you here. It's "I'll say something wicked inflamitory so people will talk about me". Been doing it for years.
-
@johnnynull true, they think they're widely respected & admired, they're not, they're a joke outside of their own community
-
@thistleweb seriously :D oh my. I've seen the outlaws a few times but only once LAS is it a good show usually?
-
@lstench When I was listening, had decent content, it's just the delivery I couldn't take. They remind me of morning-crew radio DJs.
-
@lstench it's middle class white boys, using terms like "fo shizzle" "B man" "poopyhead" in intentionally childish accents
-
@lstench they apparently think they should be taken seriously, that they are an authority on everything, they take themselves WAY serious
-
@kevingranade Hey, just the other day, I described them as a morning-zoo team does linux! Great minds and all that.
-
@thistleweb Spot on.
-
@vanden more like great plagarism, I didn't have enough characters left to credit the analogy.

@thistleweb Ah know-it-alls
-
@kevingranade So their personalities aren't very likable..
-
@thistleweb Hee-Hee you know you crack me up!! Tell it!!
-
@thistleweb I was pretty disappointed. I always like listening to the LAS but even after 3 years I am definitely put off by it all.
-
@thistleweb Oh my you're killing me.
-
@lstench I wouldn't go that far, it's more like a genre of entertainment I don't enjoy, to be fair I'm sure some feel the same about #LO.

@thistleweb He's a showman loves the spotlight?
-
@lstench he wants to be recognised as an influential authority, with RMS, Linus & plenty others on Wikipedia, they deem him "not important"
-
@kevingranade True it can go both ways-- I might have to watch it again
-
@thistleweb Why is that?
-
@lstench the want to give the impression of a call in show, but with voicemail recorded messages, they just play back....to talk with & over
-
@lstench when 1 host is a human flamethrower, why risk a non sycophant on a real call? they stream live btw
-
@thistleweb Okay I get it now. Does he have another job besides LAS?
-
@lstench he does have valid points, but his way of expressing himself, & the inability to resist flaming for hits lets him down big style
-
@thistleweb I find this interesting, almost sounds like self sabotage.
-
@thistleweb Oh well maybe after this he will change and realize that it's time to grow up.
-
@thistleweb now you know I love Fox but we both know they'll never be fair and balanced ;) well so much for that thought.
-
@thistleweb Used car salesman just makes me think of that old Ballmer commercial. :-)
-
@psquid That's a killer feature!
