Coolness Averted posted:i care i wanna know all about leo creepin on the set of zdtv Well, we knew Leo was having an affair with a regular member of the studio audience/groupie in the last year or so of The Screen Savers. There was one time he showed up on set with no pants on, just boxers. Some of the crew felt uncomfortable about that. I thought it was goofy and not very threatening. Anyway, that's the totality of the drama with Leo, though. I don't have any other juicy Leo stories unfortunately. But drat, this penis thing pretty much makes up for that. EDIT: Alan Smithee posted:I care Thanks to almost eight years at G4, I got burned out on TV. So I taught myself how to code. I make iOS apps, Ruby on Rails & JS stuff. My actual job is still video stuff, though. I'm the head of video production at a publishing company in SF. I produce videos for PC Gamer, Mac|Life, Maximum PC, a couple of others. Can't get away from video game TV. I have some fun G4 & TechTV stories to tell -- not necessarily scandalous, but funny and mostly harmless. I'll post an Ask/Tell for anyone who cares. Ask/Tell is up for anyone who cares plasticbugs fucked around with this message at 09:07 on May 28, 2015 |

He really is the dumbest of dumbasses for using a device he takes dick pics on whilst live streaming. Secondly, I may be old and out of touch but I'm pretty sure most ladies don't want to see your dick pics, I'm constantly amazed about how often they come up....heh.

Bonzo posted:Since this (and many other) issue came up, he's now turning off the chat room so it will be interesting to see him dish out solutions since his technical knowledge does not go beyond the year 2002. My guess his call screeners will just stick to old ladies trying to connect their iPADs to hotel WiFi. i want to blame a stupid media company for this but he IS the stupid media company and somehow people are giving him money

I used to watch ZDTV/TechTV/G4-TechTV for a long time, and I loved it. I was even a guest on The Screen Savers once, that was fun. I got to meet Patrick Norton, though Leo wasn't around at that point since after G4 took over, they were pretty much firing everyone of value. Too bad. I still follow TWiT now and again, as well as Revision3. I think Leo's really good at teaching novices/intermediates to use technology, and since that's what I do on a volunteer basis, I've got quite a bit of respect for him. I'd say he's kept up with technology well, but discretion might not be his best suit. If I worked in his job I'd have a phone/tablet I kept for personal use and another set for work-- that way there's no risk of having porn or dickpix on anything I use on the air. A guy I knew in college once told me he met Leo and he was a dick, but I don't really buy it. The guy who said that was an rear end in a top hat and prone to making up lots of poo poo. That, and the times I've talked to Leo he was very friendly. He was even a nice guy during his something like 12 (24?) hour Call-For-Help-a-thon on TechTV. Keep up the good work and make sure to keep your ports closed, Leo.

Kinda disconcerting now. e: Also, he isn't on TV, he's on the internet. Someone said he's a dinosaur and doesn't move with technology but I'd disagree. Sending dick pics via text as a baber boomer and watching tv on the computer is pretty current. ee: Oh nm, he just lets other people talk the real poo poo.

He's never been the most up to date and let Patrick Norton handle the bleeding-edge tech stuff when he was on The Screen Savers. His real forte seems to be teaching tech. He's more of a Mac guy, doesn't get that involved. I generally follow Norton's stuff since I'm more of a hardcore techie, but I really like Leo's teaching style and he's a good TV personality. Probably since he was doing a tech Q+A show on the radio for ages (and still does?)

I had to stop listening to Leo when it became increasingly obvious his opinions are based on the tiny bubble of technology he surrounds himself with, he doesn't seem to get how tech is used by everyone else in the world. Also all the people that were really good on the network are increasingly going elsewhere.

I used to listen to a lot of TWiT.tv stuff, so this is pretty funny. I stopped listening when it became clear that he would just wedge himself in to shows where he did not know or care about the subject matter. TWiT itself just turned in to a Silicon Valley circle jerk for whatever the startup of the week was. I couldn't help but cringe when he ended up dumping ~$1.5 million in to the rental house where he built their current studio (95% on loans/"investors", 5% on listener contributions), because it only allowed for better visual production value and how many people really want to watch an internet tech talk show. Not shocked to hear that they are hurting to stay in business.
