One out of two guys. Also, I listened to his podcasts for ten years, and he always had high standards. But 1. this gets really annoying, fast 2. Right now, he talks about a lot of stuff he does not know about as if he would know everything in the world.

Really can't stand him any more.

And yes, project is not even F/LOSS. 3D mouse recommended, this guy is aloft from the rest of human civilization.

Exactly my thoughts. In the end, he's just a pretty regular guy who exchanged his once high standards for the "enabling" factor of AI, striving for mediocrity now. Really sad and disappointing.

I partially agree. There was a time when Tim was hardly bearable, especially toward the end of CRE, but in my opinion, things have improved in recent years.

Was there an official "end" of CRE? I was still hoping for new episodes some day.

Not sure, there is no indication on the website. Maybe its just an extra long pause.
