Wtf. Anyone have the back story on this?

Allegedly, someone (likely a hater of this dev) reported that this dev was going to kill his partner then himself. Armed police turned up.

Wow that's crazy. Hope they find the guy.

But still, why would someone swat over something like this? Seems insane

Because he streamed. Streaming turns to swatting nearly every time if you don’t protect your location information.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
