@collappsar The information wasn't made public until yesterday. Apparently, his partner and family kept his death private for personal reasons. Maybe they didn't want to be harassed while mourning his death.

@mrsaturday To be fair, moot doesn't suffer from a genetic condition that cuts your lifespan to 1/3 of the average person so he has many more decades to build his lasting legacy.

@coolboymew Was it really that bad as what people say it is? A YouTube channel I liked to watch known as Computer Lab Highjinks says that people should play it just to see how ambitious it was for the time.

@icedquinn You mean having Go but with Obj-C's OO syntax?

@Soy_Magnus I still code and still enjoy it. I just feel like being an admin for a site for dissidents is just the wrong path to take.

@mrsaturday It's not just him. People like m00t and Lowtax went down similar paths. The latter even ended up killing himself.

@caekislove @PurpCat You could have a club that bans recording or even all electronic devices with cameras, but I don't know how well that would go.

@PurpCat @caekislove Yeah that too, especially given that the BBSes were limited to local area codes so such information wasn't easily searched and copied around.

@PurpCat @caekislove I envy those who grew up during that time. Must be nice to be able to do this without fear of being doxed or having your life ruined later.

@PurpCat @caekislove What is this? A BBS meetup?

@PurpCat @caekislove At this point, I think it would be better for these anonymous communities to just be textboards. It dodges the CP problem (minus the links) and (at least for now) also dodges the age-verification problem.
