Chrome is one of the first things I disable on my Android devices, and I hate the idea of signing up for any accounts just to access local files.

But Canon welcomed me with a big surprise, and a fuck you, too!

I agree with pretty much all of that guy’s takes, but he REALLY sketches me out for some reason. I don’t know what it is.

[–] BURN@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

I cannot stand him. I agree with the broad idea of his message, but Jesus he’s insufferable and constantly feels like he’s talking down to his audience

[–] throwawayacc0430@sh.itjust.works 41 points 3 days ago (1 children)

He's a libertarian with the "Democrat and Republicans are the same picture" vibes to him.

[–] Rai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 17 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

That honestly tracks with how I feel he would be

[–] brax@sh.itjust.works 17 points 2 days ago

I agree with him on a lot of the tech stuff, but there's some subtle hints of shit that I can't consciously place that really bother me.

I really started to notice it when he was looking for a new location - the way that he talked to and about some people and things in those videos bothered me. Likewise, the way he moved to a red state because it meant he could pay less in taxes and shit. There's something more but I can't put my finger on it.

[–] Jimmycakes@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago

He's a new Yorker

[–] BackgrndNoize@lemmy.world 25 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Maybe cause he's on the spectrum and you are picking up on that

[–] Rai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 30 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I don’t think that’s it… I and almost every single one of my friends are on the spectrum hahaha. It’s something else, like he tastes like a right-leaning secret prepper guy or something. I dunno. Maybe I’m just being stupid and judgy.

[–] Blue_Morpho@lemmy.world 51 points 3 days ago (1 children)

He grew up in New York and only recently moved. He's got that New York attitude. Yeah it's off putting.

[–] desertdruid@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 3 days ago

that makes sense

[–] Pieisawesome@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Is he actually on the spectrum? Or are you speculating?

[–] BackgrndNoize@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago

Well he did do a online test for Aspergers. But I don't know if he has an official diagnosis or made any official claims, but he seems cognizant of this himself,

[–] noxypaws@pawb.social 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

He acts like a somethingawful/4chan veteran. Every now and then something along those lines slips out and rubs me the wrong way too.

Like he's often the good kind of libertarian, but occasionally also the bad kind.

[–] Rai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Ahhh but I was a LUEser, a goon, then a heavy user of /b/ (until about 2009.) I don’t see myself in him at all hahaha

[–] noxypaws@pawb.social 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I used none of these sites and I'm telling you he seems like the type from the perspective of an outsider, and occasional victim/target of those kinds of sites :P

[–] Rai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 days ago

I’m sorry for your experience D:

I was a heavy user as a teen, and I definitely got into the stupid edgy humor but it was never directed at individuals for me. Then I grew up.

[–] Rivalarrival 7 points 2 days ago

Glad I'm not alone on that. I love reading about him, but I can't watch his videos.

[–] AdrianTheFrog@lemmy.world 7 points 3 days ago (1 children)

The youtuber Adam Something is like that too imo

[–] shadowedcross@sh.itjust.works 6 points 3 days ago

Same, not sure why. Maybe I heard something about him I didn't like, but have since forgotten.

[–] malin@thelemmy.club 2 points 2 days ago (2 children)

I'd say the only thing 'sketchy' about Rossman is that he's a normal human being.

It's rare to see someone independent in our homogenized society. It makes sense that someone like you would be afraid of them.

[–] seralth@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago

Naw dude is just inherently sketchy. His mannerisms and way of talking are two big ones.

He's the kinda guy that gives reason to the existence of the concept of a face guy. Rossman is not a face guy.

[–] Rai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 days ago

Nah it’s not that. And his “independent” takes are basically whatever is popular opinion on Lemmy (and formerly Reddit when I was on there.)
