Inactive Terry A. Davis / Terrence Andrew Davis - Creator of TempleOS (formerly LoseThos/sparrowOS)

Sure he is entertaining but we have to acknowledge the mental illness he suffers from. Sorry for coming across as preachy in this post.

Terry is one of the few lolcows that aren't seen as just funny imbeciles but people here have a lot of sympathy for him.
His viewers even bought him a drum-kit as an alternative to the alcoholism that was beginning to destroy his mind even more.

 

[CIA Nigger]

This is a guy who you can feel some sympathy for. His crazyness is a living hell not only for him but his family. They know a lot of the shit he does and says is because of the illness so they overlook it because it isn't really his fault. When Terry has moments of lucidity he likely realizes the hell he puts on his family and it hurts him.

This guy had talent and if he hadn't gone nuts he probably would have been pretty successful as a programmer. Maybe even have his own company. But the illness stripped that away. Sure he is entertaining but we have to acknowledge the mental illness he suffers from. Sorry for coming across as preachy in this post.

There's a reason he not only has a following on /g/, but also why he has fans (many of whom worry for him when something happens to him, such as getting addicted to alcohol, attacked by unfunny trolls who go a bit too far, or going off his medication). Despite his mental illness, he managed to create a functional yet experimental OS, basically the operating system version of outsider art.

The problem is, not only has he had fewer things to do now that his OS is at what he considers a mostly complete state, but also unfunny trolls have kept getting him banned from streaming by doing things such as emailing him sexual content and reporting him (a classic Twitch raid tactic). With less to do, this eventually resulted in him getting addicted to alcohol and ranting to his parents about niggers while shitfaced and trying to carry on conversations with other people he ran into. To make matters worse, he was going off his medication as his delusions about Dianna got worse and worse. This is what led to being kicked out, and it's a shame his mental illness had to ruin a very successful career.

(Also might as well add since a lot of misinfo keeps spreading around on /g/ threads, the shitty troll attempts started well before MisterMetokur's video went up)

I'm really sorry to hear all of this.
I hope Terry can get some professional help. I think he can recover.

Unfortunately, the fact that he thinks mental health fucks with him is a significant roadblock. I was really upset that he got kicked out, but oddly enough, he seems content with living in a van. I guess it could be worse, but it sucks that he can't play his drums.

Yeah, Terry got professional help (he mentioned that he had to go for check-ups at the mental-health clinic before) and was put in the asylum after his parents kicked him out and he started living in a van.
Terry hates psychologists (and so do a lot of people with serious psychological problems), what he needs first and foremost is a stable environment and something to keep him occupied.
He had that whilst he was living at his parent's place and was working on his OS but ever since the thing is virtually complete he has become more unruly and started drinking among other things.
Being homeless might send him over the edge, I fear.

What's probably going through Terry's mind too is the fact that medication alters your mental state, and that's one of the main reasons that many go off their medication, especially when they feel like it's a government plot to make them stupid (or in the case of Terry, docile nigger cattle). From what I can recall, Terry felt that way too while he was off his medication long enough.

Terry has deleted all the videos on templeos.org and added things about religion archive

I went to lunch with Pete pretty much every day 1990-1996. I was atheist.
In 1996, I had religious experience mental breakdown?
Pete Gadwa

I was not piss boy.
They said I was pissboy.

TM History

I was at TM from DEC89-MAR96 and 3 week in NOV2002.
History 1990s

ASU had 42000 students. Probably 10,000 freshman.

The Freshman class of 88 had 7 national merit finalists and
I was one with 740 math 700 verbal SAT.


I was in the initial honors

ASU Honors College

I lived in McClintock Dorm and there were 20 guys and 200 women because they were
phasing them out and making it an honors dorm.

Gadwa wanted to recruit from ASU.
I was not piss boy. I was more like
future hope of company.

Gadwa admired Kush.

Where does Terry live, anyway? Hopefully nowhere that has winter.

New Where does Terry live, anyway? Hopefully nowhere that has winter.

Nevada, so pretty hot climate.
He lives in a van now though so he could start to travel so evade CIA NIGGERS/NIGGER CATTLE and end up somewhere cold.

Terry hates psychologists (and so do a lot of people with serious psychological problems), what he needs first and foremost is a stable environment and something to keep him occupied.

Terry's schizophrenia has him describe mental health workers as "actors" who are likely working for the CIA niggers. He doesn't believe any of their advice or treatment would help, he thinks they're acting to get him to do what they want.

 

[January Cyst]

New videos:

These are really informative, it's almost as if he made a CV in video form.
We also lern that Terry has to stay in Vegas for 7 days to get his vehicle registered and plans to drive to California after that.
He currently camps close to his old home.

Don't give me any shit forgetting disability because fuck it man, I tried to get rid of jobs for disability that's how come I don't have to do shit you know what I'm saying.
I was trying to put those disabled people out of work so you can have free time

[cokie blaylock]

oh, no, he said something about going to meet Dianna.

Does anyone have a way to save these videos that doesn't separate the audio and video?

Dianna

I knew he killed the princess!

Not him.

That was some Arab scum in a Mercedes trying to ditch paparazzi.

No, the timeline works out way too well.
Stop believing what (((they))) tell you, Terry killed her.

Terry stopped working for Ticketmaster in 1996 after he had his "religious experiences", Diana died in early 1997....

Has somebody heard from Terry?
No news since the last "Ticketmaster 1-4" videos...

 

[cokie blaylock]

Princess Di was obviously a CIA nigger.

Oh yeah that was happening waaaay before Jim's vid. I watched a lot of his streams as he'd occasionally drop some really interesting info on programming or computing or was just entertaining. It was a shame what happened but I will say in watching the stream that probably got him booted from YT he was really having a lot of fun interacting with the chat and vice versa. Shame some asshole kept it at and fuck whoever reported him.

He's probably not able to upload as often now that he has far less consistent access to the internet.

He could just roll up to the next wifi hotspot (there have to be hundreds around Vegas) and upload stuff there.
Does Terry have a mobile phone? The only thing that he had with him on walks in the older videos was his bible and a transistor-radio.

You have to admit this high school had some pretty killer yearbook covers during that time, I love 1988's one especially!

Those are the best looking yearbooks I ever seen

Really, I wonder if a student who went there did these or were they freelanced out to someone else?
