This is a techie forum, I thought i'd share.

This is pretty sad . He owned a company Lx Labs...was a software engineer....I use HyperVM for my VPS's, so it's very relevant.

Recently there were large flaws found in the system, and many systems were attacked/hacked...allowing other users to delete root contents....I am unsure if it's related or not, but there is a thread about the owners death on web hosting talk :

his shoulder tattoo read `God is a F***** Idiot'.

...

On his social networking site page, he wrote that his ambition was to kill God and he was an anti-Christ.

sounds like someone challenged God to a duel and lost.

God rigged the game.

And besides, maybe he's up there dueling it out with God right now, while the ST:TOS fight music plays in the background.

web hosting is not touched by the HyperVM/OpenVZ nodes.

I'd venture a guess that he was depressed before his tattoo which was probably it's inspiration.
