Transcription:

An image of a social media post:

Linus Torvalds @torvalds 10 hours ago

I’m clearly a master of SEO.

When I google for “cold dark place filled with sadness and despair” right now (with the quotes), google gives me exactly one result - my Linux kernel github repository.

I will call my new hobby “Reverse Emo Googlewhacking”.

You’re welcome.

Thanks. I didn’t know that when one adds an image it would override the URL. Even though the post contains the URL, clicking on the title only shows the image. I included the URL in the post body, but it’s not as visible, unfortunately.

No worries :) Just transcribing for fun mostly, and as a substitute for having done it on “transcribers of reddit” for quite a while, and it’s nice to be able to help people who may need a transcription :)

Linus’ anger management looks to be working out for him - that’s four sentences in a row without any fucks in them. Keep on keeping it chill, big man.

Instead of the Internet consisting of 5 giant websites filled with screenshots of the other 4, I guess this is a win? A Lemmy post on the fediverse consisting of a screenshot of a Akkoma fediverse post?

Hm, when I google this, I get Edgar Allen Poe’s the Raven.

Only result for me is the repo. Along with the helpful prompt:

people also ask: how old is Torvalds? Why did Linus Torvalds created Git?

Very weird that the grammar mistake is part of the prompt
