          After being widely disseminated online, Messing was labeled “Fedora Guy” and the picture became synonymous with “neckbeard” and “nice guy” stereotypes, as well as a joke at the expense of zealous atheists.

          This is such a funny way of putting it

          The link to his youtube still works, and he’s been posting fortnite videos recently.

          There’s a video from 10 months back, and his health doesn’t look great.

          Wow I did not have to wonder about that for very long!

          Thanks!

            He got a bad case of COVID-19, was in a coma, and is permanently paralyzed. Looks like he’s got a GoFundMe for medical transport from Florida to Texas, where he’d have better support and hopefully be able to do voice work.

    FOSS devs especially, you do this for the good of everyone for little benefit to yourselves.

    I guarantee that most contributors who aren’t being paid are doing their commits out of spite, but I can definitely applaud them for being as vindictive as they are.

      This. The best code I’ve ever written and the one I’m proudest of, has been written out of spite. XD
