  • This is VERY recent but NetworkChuck. He’s such a great speaker and his videos were good intros into tech (Linux, networking, etc.) but with practical applicability. I liked that he skewed family-friendly and family positive, and some of the solutions he presented were from his perspective as a father. He was never shy about him being religious and being religiously involved. Imo 100% wholesome.

    This year, several weeks of his videos were paid sponsor content for very corporate Cisco BS. Then, he comes back from that and it’s AI stuff that’s kind of a strech for a typical home user… Then “I’m going to end my videos in a prayer”. I unsubscribed right there.



  • Respectfully disagree. I was a fan from the first Honda Accord video and was a pattreon supporter when he opened it. I still watch watch every video.

    It’s been so long. I can’t expect the same content as 10/15 years ago and I can’t exext the guys to be the same people. But the groove is there. The humor is there. It’s still raunchy and the furry stuff is different and fresh. I love RCR and I think the content still peaking.












  • I hear you. But what are non-technical users supposed to do? Compile their own apps? Flash firmware and SSH in to install the right radios and drivers?

    People treat their phones like appliances. They go to app stores to get apps which developers ensure work for specific SDKs on phones carefully tuned to work well with the carier’s networks.

    There are definitely users who will do everything from scratch. But like Linux for PCs, success of alternative OSs on phones will be dependent on there existing a good out of the box experience with the ability to integrate with hardware and third party software and/or quality open alternatives.
