He’s like a real life, “most interesting man in the world”.
He also filmed hours of professional quality porn of himself (with partners).
…s…source

There’s the news article. The source is one of his friends who claimed to know about the videos. But the videos aren’t public.
:(
I mean, dude clearly had a unique mind. Not necessarily smart or dumb, but something that made him tick also led him to commit (one of) the most popular acts of murder in American history.
*allegedly
The man just could not stop solving problems.

What was inconsistent?
From what I gather, if the allegations are true, then Luigi never claimed to be knowledgeable enough to have solutions but recognized general issues.
This would, presumably, absolve him of inconsistencies since he didn’t claim to be the arbiter of truth or an expert.
This is a genuine question btw, I’m realizing I don’t really know much about the manifest or his views beyond health insurance companies being evil. So I’m curious to hear what you mean.
I was under the impression that he was a right-leaning crypto bro that saw a bad CEO and “solved the problem”. I don’t think he even considered the material conditions of capitalism or the fact that we’re in a class war. I think he was close though. Kind of like becoming a lefty without actually talking to any lefties.
In the manifesto I saw he basically apologized to the FBI for causing all the trouble. Letting them know that he acted alone.
He definitely wasn’t the type of person I would imagine a CEO killer to be.
Unless his lawyer has stated he wrote the manifesto, we can assume it was planted.
Innocent until proven guilty
he’s been working on fixing civilization all along
He has experience in troubleshooting
👏
oddly poetic
So “Fix Civ Bugs” is new code for “Eat the rich” and it’s not even doublespeak.
Civilization has these bugs where some people can get ultra wealthy and ruin it for everyone. As Devs, we need to fix that.
Taking bets on how long before discussing fixing Civ bugs gets you banned on r*ddit
Trouble-shooting
It’s a shame those weren’t caught in QA and are now in production. Hard to ship a patch for so many platforms!
I promise you they probably were caught in QA. Game companies set a date and ship when that date hits, not when the bugs are all closed.
… I legit know folks at firaxis, I didn’t know this.
I’m gonna ask if it’s true lmaoo
It says he worked an an intern and it was several years ago. I know the meme is fun, but I highly doubt that if he were not under arrest that he’d have been working on Civ 7 UI.
But that’s the problem. He fixed the bugs in VI but wasn’t around for VII
I know it’s only been 20 minutes, but any answers?
So far I’ve gotten a eye roll emoji in response lol
Bootlickers got butthurt haha
Bro was fixing civ before he decided to try to fix civ manually 😛
Before he “allegedly” tried to fix Civ. I’m still not convinced that he isn’t a convenient patsy.
I honestly don’t get this point of view.
Then we have to assume the government are happy for the real killer to go free. Then what happens when he kills another CEO and says to you got the wrong man.
the real killer would get blackbagged and extrajudicially executed with no expense spared and no hope of a trial
Why would a killer carry a ghost gun across state lines? It’s designed to be thrown away. The killer obviously had a plan.
The answer is the killer didn’t. The killer followed the plan and threw away the ghost gun. The police found it and planted it on Luigi.
But… why him? They could have framed literally any convicted felon, and have a much easier time with the jury. Why would they choose an attractive cis white male engineer?
Because his social media profile matched the criteria they gave to the AI system for a white, young, male, person with chronic health issues who’s engaged with extremist political content in the past in the desired location.
It’s all about the data these days. They have systems on systems to monitor us all. Luigi read the Unabomber manifesto for a laugh and left a review. The algorithm identified him as a political extremist and fed his name to the pigs.
Reminds me of some of the scenes and themes in the city of Nephilopolis in Dresden Codak.
(I wonder if Luigi has read that webcomic)
a true patriot would organize a team to break this guy out of jail.
The best outcome of this situation is jury nullification. If the jury nullifies, we’ll have proven the law does not prosecute heroic deeds of this caliber. It would be the biggest blow to capitalism in generations.
“he who saves his country has committed no crimes”
i threw up in my mouth a bit quoting trump, but throwing their words back at them is always satisfying.
If it makes you feel any better, Trump was quoting Napoleon.
Everyone who fights the British is redeemable in some way, but no, that’s not a whole lot better.
You can tell he was quoting someone else because the sentence makes grammatical sense
I have been shouting this from the rooftops since I heard what happened. So many people think you have to punish someone if they are proven guilty… not true in the USA. The jury can decide he is not guilty for whatever reason they want. They can prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that he did it and the jury can still let him go. So many people don’t know this.
Also a great way to get out of jury duty is to mention this during the selection process, they will boot you 100% of the time if you know this.
The problem is that if you try to get on a jury to do this then you’re usually probably committing perjury. They typically ask questions somewhat related to it without outright using the phrase.
Definitely true. I would perjure myself to get Luigi off the hook though. He is a hero not a criminal. He had the balls to kill that piece of shit, I can have the balls to tell a white lie to get him out.
Can we please stop assuming he did it?
i love that too, but they will be anticipating jury nullification, and they have stopped people from doing it before.
i just don’t trust anything abut the american justice system any more.
Once the jurors are selected, we need to start a social media blitz in New York around jury nullification. Signs on street corners. Murals. Chanting crowds outside the courthouse on the court dates.
We can do this 💪
Aren’t jurors for high profile cases typically secluded during the trial? Would they even be on social media or in a position to be out in public much?
They still have to enter the building, and the courts have specifically found that holding signs signs and handing out pamphlets about jury nullification in public space outside of courthouse are 100% protected speech.
your probably thinking grand juries.
I am in Canada. I would go, but I don’t want CBP to be asking me any questions. Last time I visited the US they searched my car for no reason. I have been interrogated by them before (you can probably tell by my username I am of Lebanese descent), but I have a feeling that the Trumpian bullshit might empower them to detain me for no fucking reason.
i agree, but keep in mind that if the DOJ knows what they’re up against, they will pull some underhanded shit to make a conviction unavoidable. don’t doubt them for a second.
i honestly have no faith and would rather see us organizing the things that don’t interact with the gears of government at all.
The have been arrested white Canadians for improper documentation and holding them for months with no charge or even telling them why they have been arrested and detained.
Guess he’s slipping. He didn’t even solve 1% of the healthcare bugs.
If the Government had let him cook I believe he’d have gotten to 25% too
Everyday more info comes out about him the more likeable he becomes.
He was just an ordinary dude pushed to the extreme.
allegedly
Remember then the media was calling him a Techbro instead of a tech worker? Yeah, he was never a Techbro.
Maybe I misunderstand the context of the term but I never viewed them as mutually exclusive. There are toxic “bro” type devs who are still actually good devs (doesn’t excuse being an ass though). I never viewed it as meaning someone who doesn’t code “for real” but maybe I’m misusing it.
For me, “Techbro” exclusively refers to people who repackage existing ideas and sell them as an innovation to VC investors. Think of how many techbros keep reinventing trains and boats, but worse.
I picture those who didn’t embrace geek culture or esthetics, leaning more towards jock and fraternity culture instead, but who saw money in computers.
That’s how I’ve always interpreted it. Specifically about toxic jocks though, nothing inherently wrong with enjoying sports.
I felt the same, and I want sports to be a vehicle for teaching people about fitness, and teamwork. I am not sure I still do, it so often dissolves into toxic competition, self harm, injury, violence, riots and a general us against them attitude.
I hope people get good things from sports and avoid the bad things.
Plenty of traditionally nerdy things devolve into those as well. Except riots maybe.
I’ve always seen it as meaning the type of douche who would pitch anything to YC
tech bros are people like musk, zuckerberg, a little bezos, altman,etc. same goes for cryptobros, people that peddle the actual crypto, but are very bad at it or they arnt even investing in it themselves. i know someone who was peddling obscure one as actual success.
gates, and Jobs is another.
They tried everything… It didn’t work
Bootlickers eventually fell inline but anyone paying attention saw right through the bullshit.
Anyone with basic vidya game exp knows that you re going the right way when you get this many enemies having a melt down on teevee and socials
Reality is just taking the piss now isn’t it.
Elon Musk the fat roller pays people to get him high scores in games for clout.
Luigi Mangioni fixes 25% of ~~all ~~ UI bugs in Civilization 6.
The difference couldn’t be clearer.
Better free him so he can fix the UI in Civ7
But Civ5 already had universal healtcare.
