He was convinced he could talk to [God](god.md) and that God commanded him to make an operating system with certain parameters such as 640x480 resolution, also known as the *God's resolution*. Terry self proclaimed he's been gifted *divine intellect* and was, in his own words, the "best programmer that ever lived". Terry was making [YouTube](youtube.md) talking/programming videos in which God was an often discussed topic, alongside valuable programming advice and a bit of good old [racism](racism.md). He was also convinced that the government was after him and often delved into the conspiracies against him, famously proclaiming that **"CIA [niggers](nigger.md) glow in the dark"** ("glowing in dark" subsequently caught on as a phrase used for anything [suspicious](sus.md)). He was in mental hospital several times and later became homeless, but continued to post videos from his van. An entertaining fact is also that he fell in love with a famous female physics YouTuber Dianna Cowern which he stalked online. In 2018 he was killed by a train (officially a [suicide](suicide.md) but word has it CIA was involved) but he left behind tons of videos full of endless entertainment, and sometimes even genuine [wisdom](wisdom.md).
Terry, just as [us](lrs.md), greatly valued [simplicity](minimalism.md) and [fun](fun.md) in programming, he was a low-level programmer and saw that technology went to [shit](shit.md) and wanted to create something in the oldschool style, and he expressed his will to dedicate his creation to the [public domain](public_domain.md). This is of course extremely based and appreciated by [us](lrs.md) (though the actual public domain dedication wasn't executed according to our recommendations).

RIP in peace, dear Terry Davis. You have inspired us.
