Asahi Lina is truly an inspiration for open source reverse engineering. For those not aware, they also live stream their coding sessions quite often: https://www.youtube.com/@AsahiLina

I'm excited for the day that I can easily install SteamOS (the modern one that runs on the Steamdeck) on an M2 Mac mini for an insanely powered "Steam console" for my living room TV.

I did not expect the coding live streams of GPU engineering to be presented by a virtual anime persona with a squeaky voice.

It's just Marcan being weird and creepy.

>>realjh+TU
Marcan is very busy with a lot of other things, like upstreaming patches to the Linux mainline and improving platform support.

He's been clear that he's not Asahi Lina... and he's also not a GPU hacker as far as I know.

Asahi Lina has the same spanish-sounding accent as Hector but pitched up and falsetto. "raider" - the hostname of the developer machine is that same as the hostname of Hector's machine.

He even did a super-cringe "take over" video, where Asahi Lina "broke into" one of streams: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=effHrj0qmwk

She said she did that by using his stream key which she somehow obtained from his computer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=effHrj0qmwk&lc=UgzNfomvdiD0j...

Well then it must be legit. Who among us hasn't accidentally leaked a cryptographic secret key to a screeching vtuber who has the exact same accent as we do.

>>realjh+EL1
Ok ok you've got a point. I'm probably too naive to take someone like Marcan at his word.
