On the subject of Skylar becoming something, I agree that the parallels between him and Iconoclast are eerily similar.

That said, I could absolutely see him being a batshit crazy semi-hermit continually spouting gibberish to the internet long after no one gives a shit anymore (not that many people give a shit now).

I could see him really losing it after his safety cushions/echo chambers (his parents) are gone. He's a toxic enough individual that you can count on him having zero friends or acquaintances, and with his attitude, he's sure as hell never going to have a gainful career. Will he be as batty as John S. Bulla? Doubtful, but I could see a level near there if he continues down this path.

Raging against the farms is pretty much all Skylar has - he's in that period between college and employment where you don't really have a lot going on, so he's at a loss for how to spend his days. I can't imagine his mobile net lab is getting much use nor does he hold something like a simple retail job.

Which just goes to show how overconfident he is in his own abilities to sell themselves. If he was truly smart as much as he says he is, then he'd be spending this time trying to get certifications like a CCNA, if getting that degree is out of the picture from even a diploma mill. Employers want a bachelor's degree minimum (though associates are popping up time to time), but those certifications might be worth even more.

Of course, in any job interview, he'd be asked why he didn't graduate with a degree, to which his answer has to be some kind of spin on "I got kicked out for homophobic tirades and then demanding my cheap shit posters back".

Isn't Minecraft playable on a potato? Why would you need a $5000 rig to play it?

Late to the party, but time for me to reveal my own lolcow tendencies.

Minecraft is technically playable on anything, but it won’t run smoothly. Something about it being programmed in Java, I’ve been told. It also can have a very difficult time loading blocks if your laptop is below average, meaning you can die from things that you can’t see yet. And if you want to run a sever at the same time? Forget about it.

But you don’t need a $5000 rig for it. You could run it smoothly on an $800 laptop, with a server. It’s only if you have a cheap $500 laptop or notebook that you’ll have issues.

Basically, Skylar is talking bullshit, surprise surprise.

 

[DuckSucker]

Skylar is one breakdown away from becoming Terry A. Davis (with nearly none of the Terry's talent or skill).

I was thinking more like Russel Greer. Outside of the whole "women need to love me and have sex with me im a nice guy!" He's already got the religion angle, Im smarter than everyone/totally and unfairly persecuted(in part because of my beliefs) and the tons of frivolous lawsuits angle covered.

Java is pretty well known for being resource heavy, resulting in a slow and clunky application, especially if your code isn't optimized.

I'm not entirely sure on how java works but I'm under the impression it masks the memory and CPU allocation for running it's code inside its own little workspace instead of letting the computer worry about it. It allows the code to work across different platforms and operating systems but makes it hard for the programmer to optimize for performance.

Skylar here is what I would like to call a 'very voluntary lolcow'.

Unlike say, Terry A. Davis, or even Chris Chan, he is very capable of unplugging the crazy, cutting his losses and letting life go on, his autism or whatever clearly isn't what's making him a lolcow.

His hubris and inability to admit he is wrong are what's making him a mockery, even in the face of world-class Russian hackers!

Terry A. Davis can't just get rid of his Schizophrenia, Chris Chan can't undo years of coddling & lack of autism treatment, but both of Skylar's issues are things people are willing & able to grow out of on a daily basis. IMO, That makes him twice as funny!

 

[DonaldJTrump]

A trait skylar and cwc all have is they indulge in the past so much Chris reminsces about his late 90s high school years like skylar bitches about that college Chris could've moved on and Skylar could go to some hardcore conservative fundie catholic college like Christendom college which is an hour from ruckersville in front royal

 

[Aristophanes]

Although Skylar or Iconoclast are of at least average intelligence, I wouldn't say they are "book-smart" at all - Skylar has rote-learned passages from the Bible, but he has no idea as to their context or how to apply them - like Iconoclast and his poor understanding of politics.

Someone said they were more "book smart" than "street smart," but I think (not to put words in someone else's mouth) that was more to emphasize how little sense they had where the latter was concerned. I don't think even those of us who agree about them being of at least average intelligence would ever describe either of them as "knowledgeable." On the contrary, because they are arrogant and stubborn people with inflated senses of their own competence and accomplishments, they don't bother putting in the work to actually learn what they are talking about before spouting off about subject matter they've taken a cursory glance at.

if Skylar is so fucking holy, why doesn't he enter formation to become a priest?

The Church is absolutely desperate for vocations. It would provide him with necessary structure and a lifelong career.

Because there is no goddamn way he'd last and he knows it, for all he'll never admit it. Even putting aside the many, many problems he would have with the critical thinking, empathy, and psychological screenings, the Pope has all but given the official seal of approval to gay people ("who are we to judge?"), and stated that the Church should ask for their forgiveness. Not just apologise to them, mind, ask for their forgiveness.

True enough, but he'd need to be submissive towards his superiors or at least to shut the fuck up about his raging homophobia in the public. He'd be too much of a nuisance for the Church.

Maybe the Opus Dei would be a place for him, but the rights of personal freedom within the OD ranks have to be earned by new members and since Skylar can't be arsed to at least pretend playing by the rules...

His problem isn't ideological disagreement. The vast majority of the shit he was citing is actually Catholic doctrine as promulgated by the Vatican. As much as various idiots have accused Pope Francis of abandoning positions such as that homosexual behavior and abortion are sins simply because he doesn't use overtly hateful rhetoric, he has in fact affirmed that those remain doctrine. Pope Francis has done nothing to change those doctrines, and it would take something like a papal encyclical to do so.

Although it is a subject only the most conservative would tend to focus on, particularly in America, his positions are doctrinally sound.

The problem is his behavior and his autistic inability to act within a hierarchical structure.

Someone like that might have fared better in a society where people were sent off young to become monks and socialized into that structure early.

At the heart of Skylar's issues lies the fact that he didn't let himself adjust to the socially structured environment that is school/college - a place where he isn't at the center of attention (unlike being homeschooled). This hasn't been helped by his coddling parents, and because of this he's a just a spoilt child with no real perspective to how life outside of his house works.

Yea, he expects others to conform to him and not the other way around.
Could never see him having a romantic relationship or any meaningful friendships as he doesn't understand how to compromise.
He'll be one lonely motherfucker if he isn't already

 

[DonaldJTrump]

I doubt he would get far in seminary, He'd be too combative unless it was one of the sedevacantist groups like the CMRI.

He's actually pretty pissed at people who deny the apostolic succession of Francis. That's in some of his reddit posts. He is not interested in becoming a heretic, at least so far.

He probably is, from what I can see his parents are his only "friends." Most likely the reason he acts like such a shit head.

I don't think the Church is desperate enough to take anyone so arrogant, and so incapable of understanding, respecting, and empathizing with others' points of view, as Skylar. He'd be an absolute disaster as a priest.

The Catholic priesthood isn't a last-chance dumping ground for unfuckable spergs with stunted interpersonal skills who have no other prospects--it's just not. Monasteries might once have fulfilled that purpose (to a very limited extent), but he wouldn't even be accepted as a monk because he's a such an arrogant little shithead who thinks he's smarter than everyone else, can't admit when he is in error, and will aggressively and persistently defend his errors despite the logical consequences of them.

The only calling he has is his mother calling him out of his childhood bedroom when it's time for dinner. That's it.

Not even that. For some reason I can picture them mostly communicating through text messages even when in the same house.
