When I was in college, I read a short story about a violently homophobic man who had a heart attack while getting laid and went to hell. Once there, he would meet beautiful women, mount them and then as he was banging would notice that they were actually men. Apparently this was his punishment for having killed a couple of gay men in his youth.

What's interesting is that this was written in the 90's long before it became "bigotry" to find troons disgusting, but while the wider media was still using lube to force gay acceptance. The greatest punishment satan himself could devise was to have a man start having sex with a beautiful woman only to have him discover she was actually a man. In the story, the man would slowly realize that he was fucking another guy and be unable to stop. He would have to keep doing that until he liked it. The author implied that day was centuries off.

Yeah, that sounds like hell to me.

So Hector and his boyfriend, I think, will someday have that same realization. Maybe they already have. Outwardly, they claim to be Tokyo Hacker Girls and I think internally they are deluded enough to believe it for now. Eventually there will be a moment of terrible clarity.

When that happens Hector will realize that while Byuu is dead, he is the one living in hell. In the end, the scales always balance whether we know it or not.

Phoronix: Asahi Linux Has Experimental Code For DisplayPort, Apple M3/M4/M5 Bring-Up Still Ongoing (archive)
In recent weeks though a new contributor going by the name "IntegralPilot" has been working on M3 bring-up. There's been progress there with even getting DOOM running now on M3 hardware

Hey guys, I might have colon cancer so buy me a Ko-fi! Tee hee hee it's certainly not my shit diet of bathtub HRT and fast food! Remember that it's transphobic not to donate! uWu I'm a widdle girl!
He claims to have been sent a cease and desist:

Also, he's allegedly Danish nobility so there's some sperging about the Greenland situation, lolz.
 
Imagine having such low self esteem that you publicly announce that you have parasites in a flaccid attempt at medaling in the Oppression Olympics. How the fuck are any of these fucktards still alive? I'm surprised he hasn't choked on a candy wrapper by now.
 
Probably from eating shit or some other disgusting troon practice.
We've all seen the troon dungeons thread. That nigger absolutely got worms from eating four day old food off the floor. If it was something carried in his bathtub HRT, the infection would be in his leg-ovaries and we'd all have a fun amputation saga to enjoy throughout the year.
 
New name dropped. I don't think anyone noticed that he renamed himself to "Hoshino Lina" sometime in mid-December (between Nov 30 and Dec 16). It should be added to the thread title since it appears to be semi-permanent:

ChatGPT:

Hoshino (星野) is a Japanese surname.
  • 星 (hoshi) = star
  • 野 (no) = field / plain
So it literally means “star field” or “field of stars.” 🌟
Poetically, people often interpret it as something like a place under the stars or a starry plain.

You’ll see Hoshino used as:
  • a family name (quite common in Japan),
  • a character name in anime/manga/games,
  • or sometimes a stage name because it sounds dreamy and elegant.

Google:

Hoshino (星野) is a Japanese surname meaning "star field" or "star plain," often originating as a topographic name for those living near such areas. It is historically linked to Shintō priests of the Atsuta Shrine in Owari, with additional roots in the Taira and Minamoto clans.

Key facts about the Hoshino surname:
  • Meaning: Derived from hoshi (星, "star") and no (野, "field" or "plain").
  • Origin: Common in Japan, particularly in the Ryūkyū Islands.
  • Pronunciation: Ho-shee-no.
  • Notable People: Gen Hoshino (musician/actor) and Michio Hoshino (photographer).
  • Cultural Context: Frequently appears in media, such as characters in Oshi no Ko and Blue Archive.
  • Usage: It is found in Japan, Brazil, the United States, and elsewhere.

The name change followed some sperging in early December that you can only see on the vt.social feed. I think the name change was in part to distance himself from his previous work on Linux/Asahi:

If I'm not mistaken, Hector's "Spout2" is VTuber software that is in direct competition with Luna's:

He begged for an RTX A400 4 GB (the gay household already has an RTX 5070 + RTX 5050 + RX 5700 XT) to get Spout2 running on that, and promptly got one from "ZoneTwelve":

Somewhere he thought about getting an Intel GPU and doing the trifecta like @Slav Power. I'll look for that post now. Edit:

He's spiraling! And he noticed the mean Phoronix comments on the end-of-2025 Asahi article:

He renamed his tranny VTuber persona to 'Starfield'? Fuckin' pronouns.
With the exact kanji he chose (星乃), it could be more like "Lina of the Stars". Maybe a real Jap will take a look at it later.

Analyze this: 星乃リナ. Give an explanation of each character.

Sometimes "Hoshino" is 星野. Why could 星乃 be used instead?
Let’s break it down piece by piece 😊

星乃リナ​

星(ほし / hoshi)​

  • Meaning: star
  • Very common in names.
  • Conveys imagery like brightness, hope, fame, or something that stands out.

乃(の / no)​

  • Meaning (classical): of, from, belonging to
  • This kanji is old-fashioned / classical and is often used phonetically rather than for its literal meaning.
  • In names, 乃 is frequently chosen for:
    • A soft, elegant, feminine feel
    • A traditional or poetic tone
  • Functionally, it works like the particle in modern Japanese.
So 星乃 (Hoshino) can be read as:
“of the stars” / “from the stars” (poetic nuance)

リナ (Rina)​

  • Written in katakana, often used for:
    • Modern-sounding names
    • Stylish, pop, or entertainment contexts
    • Names with flexible or non-kanji origins
  • Commonly associated with sounds like rina rather than a fixed meaning.

Why 星乃 instead of 星野?​

Both are read Hoshino, but they feel different.

星野 (the standard one)​

  • 星 = star
  • 野 = field / plain / wilderness
  • Very common real-world surname
  • Feels:
    • Grounded
    • Natural
    • Traditional in a straightforward way

星乃 (the stylistic one)​

  • Replaces 野 with 乃
  • Reasons someone might choose 星乃:
    1. Aesthetic preference
      乃 looks more delicate and refined than 野.
    2. Poetic / classical vibe
      Feels literary, old-Japanese, almost name-like rather than place-like.
    3. Name uniqueness
      星野 is extremely common; 星乃 stands out visually.
    4. Stage name / pen name / character name
      Very popular in:
      • Idols
      • Voice actors
      • VTubers
      • Fictional characters
In short:
  • 星野 = “star field” (literal, common surname)
  • 星乃 = “of the stars” (stylized, elegant, name-forward)
If you want, I can also:
  • Compare how 星乃 feels vs other variants (星ノ, 星之, 星の)
  • Talk about how native speakers emotionally perceive 乃 in names
  • Analyze whether 星乃リナ feels more “real person” or “character/stage name”
 
When a lady is dead wrong, gets corrected and says, "It really hurt that nobody stood up for me," You can always find a gentle word to soothe her silly woman feelings. You know that she's wrong but you don't correct her because they are the fairer sex and require extra understanding from us.

When a man says that after putting his big fat foot in his mouth, you ignore him and pretend you didn't hear it. If he repeats himself enough, then it's time tell him in no uncertain terms to quit being a pussy.

Hector fancies himself a girl but he isn't. He hides behind his lolicon avatar in the hopes that he can steal some of those gentile platitudes we save for the womenfolk. It was never going to work because the human animal can only play pretend for so long. He's chasing after something society will not give him, and claiming great harm at its absence. That's a tough way to live.

Hopefully over the coming years and decades this "damages" his "mental health" to the point that he anheros. Byuu is gotta be lonely in hell, it would be nice for him to have a buddy to suffer alongside.
