"Does anyone notice that Michael Larabel is cultivating a mythology where every day he is a little more responsible for Steam on Linux?" https://twitter.com/#!/icculus |

About time too! Larabel for President I say. But all said and done, Phoronix and the Phoronix forums helped me out a lot especially when I made the mistake of purchasing a ATI/AMD Radeon card, its OK it won't happen again i'm cured. Dr Nvidia made me better. |

I read it as a snarky comment about how self-congratulatory Larabel seems to always be. That boy needs to be knocked down a notch with a dose of reality. |

Just remember Dizzy Dean's comment: "If you can do it, it ain't braggin'." |

I'm curious about all the Larabel bashing - from what I can see, his crime is that he kept insisting that there was something to the valve on linux story when all the naysayers were calling him names for thinking any such thing could be true. |

herzeleid - some of it is just naysaying with a dash of obnoxiousness, yes, but if you read enough news posts on there you will eventually also find overly-sensationalised headlines and a lot of self-congratulation. "Just as I said... bla", "I did this/that". So much so that it comes across as insincere. He's an easy target. :P |
