It is shite to bully TempleOS's creator.

But it doesn't surprise me.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays.

He's dead its impossible to bully him or in fact to effect him in any way

He was also incredibly racist and extremely homophobic even before his schizophrenia got bad. I don't want to play suffering Olympics here but you can suffer from mental health issues and still be an awful person.

I took it as a lighthearted jab at the user of the OS, not as an insult at the creator of the OS. I have mad respect to Terry.
