Lol. Some guy made an account called "marcan42" went on and changed some pages so that the Letterbomb-pride picture is now the non-gay version and made most the entire wiki use that instead.

It's worth noting that only thing that uses the current gay version (done by a random user who couldn't even do it right lol) of note is some alternate language versions of the letterbomb article, a random template page, the hackmii installer article, which could be erased with a couple more edits.Lol.

Can't attach a screenshot because I'm phoneposting but there's now a file revision battle going on with the Letterbomb icon and the only guy actually saying shit is bobsmith, the other guy changing it back to the gay flag version doesn't even have a user page and is leaving the default revert message.
the level of dedication these guys have to keeping a png to it's fag version is so high, you'd think they'd put that effort into Wii hacking and homebrew.... you know, the point of the wiki in the first place.View attachment 5359075
This is not nearly diverse enough. As a trans-POB (Person of Balkans) I demand representation
how fucking DARE THEY

Pardon the tangent, but is that dtolnay fellow involved (or central) to any lolcow drama? I mostly know the name from using serde, thiserror and anyhow; never caught a whiff of tomfuckery orbiting him, and it'd probably be the last nail in the coffin for me w/ regards to the Rust """community""" if he was lolcow material.I actually quite like Rust the language, but there are numerous troons/drama queens in its orbit, especially around the compiler (and the Foundation, but no one cares about that). There are a few sane corners though (where everybody is actually employed to do actual work. who knew!)
I’m surprised no one mentioned the recent (bringing up of old) RustConf drama by whitequark, between thephd and dtolnay in any of the applicable threads. lolcow energy there.
The wiki janny was too retarded to figure out that he could lock both Letterbomb.png AND Letterbomb-pride.png but instead just decided to delete the template all together. Also what's the connotation here with adding the pride flag to a logo that's a bomb in a letter? That they're going to send mail bombs to LGBTQIAPBBQ2S+ homes? Someone should call the FBI, I think Hector Martin is a right wing extremist plotting a terrorist attack.View attachment 5361418
The wiki mod reverting logo edits decided to delete the LetterBomb template, leading to at least 100 pages with now broken links, significantly the LetterBomb articles in alternate languages

as far as i can tell, no. like you said, he is responsible for many widely used crates, which i imagine these troons are jealous of etc so they create this drama around him. they have insinuated that he’s some kind of master manipulator/jerk in private rust project chats, but it is literally all hearsay. also he used to? does? work at palantir which is obviously a big no-no to them.Pardon the tangent, but is that dtolnay fellow involved (or central) to any lolcow drama?

I'm offended at their attempt to associate holesome homos with heckin terrorism by putting the pride flag on something called LetterBombView attachment 5361418

Cheers, mate. Here's hoping that some corners of the Rust community remain unpozzed.as far as i can tell, no. like you said, he is responsible for many widely used crates, which i imagine these troons are jealous of etc so they create this drama around him. they have insinuated that he’s some kind of master manipulator/jerk in private rust project chats, but it is literally all hearsay. also he used to? does? work at palantir which is obviously a big no-no to them.
same. Pretty sure I went to school with this guy in Florida. Don’t want to dox him.he really doesn't strike me as being Byuu
Our man Hector wades in:
"If Hacker News is crap, which site does moderation well?"
View attachment 5373529
Again, it's not really clear what Hector objects to on Hacker News. Some vague thing to do with minorities... which can only be troons.
No he wouldn't, because troons can never do anything wrong.So yeah, maybe being transgender is not an excuse for that bullshit. Your gender identity (and the oppression that may invite) is not a magic shield that deflects all criticism no matter how horrible the stuff you say is. This isn't a zero-sum game. "The world is unfair and evil to me so I'm allowed to be unfair and evil to others" is not how any of this works.
This is new. Previously, he just talked to them on the phone and they told him everything, but now he had to go to the police station?I had to go to the goddamn police station to report information about the circumstances around their death.
He actually never said that he talked on the phone, but it's understandable because he's a mush mouthed wetback who can't properly articulate his lies.This is new. Previously, he just talked to them on the phone and they told him everything, but now he had to go to the police station?
I’m still not absolutely convinced that Ginder didn’t die in 2019 or that byuu was in fact Ginder, but on the balance of probabilities it seems that Ginder is alive and was byuu. From a twitter search, Lethalbit’s face reveal (posted three days before the byuuicide) shows bushier eyebrows than Ginder.It would probably be best if someone could compare Byuu's coding style to Lethalbit's to see if there are similarities.

If someone would like to archive this I would appreciate. Recovering from party last night with LONG conversation with female doctor from Oregon who is fighting the good fight against what’s going in her state.
