@daeks It's from reddit.

How about chaninging the name from Retropie to something more universal?
Xbmc did this (now kodi) and that's better for them because it was weird being called xbmc when it was available on so many other platforms.
Who knows what the future holds?
I'm using retropie on non-Pi hardware already.

@AlexMurphy

I celebrate the guy's entire catalog.

[edmaul69]

So @mediamogul what's this i hear about your TPS reports?

[AlexMurphy]

@edmaul69 I'm gonna need you to come in tomorrow.

[obsidianspider]

I'm gonna have to ask you to come back another time…

[mattrixk]

What have I done?

at least he's playing Tetris in that last image, so it's kind of on-topic

WOW!
Just seeing this.
Looks like the guy tried to corner the market on retropie kits filled with roms and it backfired on him.

[AlexMurphy]

Anyone else see this on reddit?

@AlexMurphy He is an internet crybaby.

[AlexMurphy]

@hooperre ME? WAAAAAAAAH! Yeah, I know. "Da internetz hurted my feelies!"

@hooperre "Hate speech and exposing personal info"? I'll tell you what is hateful, stealing something that doesn't belong to you and passing it off as your own work. And as for personal info, it is all freely available online in the Trademark application / register. What a dick that guy is!

Couldn't agree more. He certainly loves to play the victim.
This thread has been pretty quiet lately - not sure if that's a good or bad sign.

I think this is a great point.

[robertybob]

I hope he keeps to his word and transfers the trademark across - only then would I be fine for this thread and everything on Reddit about it to be removed. Everyone can then move on.

[AlexMurphy]

@robertybob Well, yeah, he seems like an honourable guy who keeps his word. I wouldn't trust him as far as I could throw him.

[Crescendo]

if he's really a good guy, why he tried to use MTurks for downvoting in Reddit?
