@Lainyboy @realcaseyrollins Why worry about them? It's just some boomer sewing circle. They're free to stay off where they are and do whatever it is they do.
@realcaseyrollins @p @Lainyboy i'm just disappointed with how it ended up. so much potential.
@Locksmith @realcaseyrollins @Lainyboy That's understandable, but I think the writing was on the wall the second Torba was involved.

Like, the only reason anyone ever heard of it was that Torba went on a private YC networking board one day and started yelling "YOU SHOULD ALL BE DEPORTED BUILD THE WALL" in random threads because he knew it would get him kicked and then he could get into a bunch of press pieces and say "I was banned for my politics! This is Silicon Valley in year of our Lord $current_year!" That story had legs, but the response ("No, we kicked him for flames and insults, this is a board for YC alums to make business connections.") didn't have any sizzle and wouldn't get much play.

@p @Locksmith @Lainyboy@neckbeard.xyz I mean since he bowed to and removed content at their behest it was pretty clear that he wasn't the most principled of men

@realcaseyrollins @Locksmith @Lainyboy I asked several times, like, "Instead of wasting time and money moving while getting kicked off of everything, why don't you just buy some boxes and rack them up at a colo?" No answer. Eventually I got an indirect answer from :robcolbertno: in the only thread where he replied to anything I said: all their dudes are offshore, so it seems like there'd be no one to rack anything up.
