Say something nice about him

Nice beard

he'll die soon

He has done great thing for the computer world.

like what

He wrote some pretty good software, necessary to get the stuff we have today.

looks like marx

Handsome :3

/thread

He's pretty consistent about his "fight".

He's right

literal cancer to the open source community

Thankfully he didn't reproduce.

He doesn't hate Unix, actually. He picked the Unix design for GNU because it's the best IS design available, but he dislikes part of the Unix philosophy of being proprietary.

>t. windows user
Try a GNU/Linux distro in a VM and learn to love the unlimited possibilities of real computing.

I spot a e-macs virgin

Don't breed, use a condom, or prevent any problems by jumping from a high building.

>He doesn't hate Unix,
He's said so himself. He chose Unix because C is portable; so it was easy for him.

It's on his fucking website, tool.

So show me the where.

He made a unix clone not because he liked it, but because it was portable and in large use by hackers in the mid 80's.

we don't deserve him

Emacs is the most useful text editor ever written

Lisper's are shit

> just showing the subjects while hiding the actual posts
Brainlets may fall for this, 1/10

Still can't find the part where he says "I hate Unix".

>hiding the actual posts
Fuckin' retard. lrn2rss.

hurrr, Yeah, "I was never a fan of Unix" is glowing review! Let me spell it out to you since you're a dense motherfucker. He was a Lisp hacker, they hate Unix. The book "the unix haters handbook" was primarily written by lisp hackers.

Lisp is better than any other embedded scripting language. But that's not the point

Emacs is useful because you can make a plugin for your language that launches whenever you open a ".whatever" file. It'll let you make a GUI that interacts with the command line that just works.

The best example is Proof General: optional Unicode math symbols, can export your source code to a syntax highlighted HTML file, has an incredibly useful interactive mode, built in boiler plate code, built in tools to visualize what your proof looks like as a tree, a built in interface to ML4PG

Literally Jesus v2.0. People hate him because he speaks the truth.

>Lisp is better than any other embedded scripting language. But that's not the point
The point of emacs was to have a lisp interpreter on unix after lisp interpreters died when MIT killed the ITS program.

ITS/lispers use emacs
True Unix devs use vi/ed

Unix devs are 90 years old, if even still alive.

Same with lispers. But that ghost of dead OS's lives on with emacs.

>Unix devs are 90 years old
Retard. SysV was released in the 90's.
Most dotcoms in the late 90's/00's ran on Solaris (a SySVR4 Unix that was coauthored by Sun and AT&T), so I don't see how they would be in the 90's.

He is so fit, thin & skinny

there is nothing unlimited about Linux, it's actually the exact opposite. it cant do 90% of the things Windows can do, while Windows can almost literally do anything that Linux can.
>inb4 freedom as configuring anything I want
you can open a text editor and write anything there too, doesn't mean its an unlimited possibility.

Thank you for stealing credit? Why? Made a nice compiler tho

Mirin. Only retards hate him, memelord retards.

Linux is a kernel, it can't even boot on its own.

He's right tho. Linux (actually GNU) is the operating system created by stallman, the kernel (actually Linux) is the kernel created by torvalds. No stealing here, just working though erroneous terminologies.

Stallman never created an OS.

Sure, it's called GNU (often erroneously referred to as "Linux") and is used by millions.

He planted the seed that software doesn't have to be technical to be a social movement. Without him we wouldn't have codes of conduct, increased inclusivity, and social justice in software that we have today. It was never about the code, but the social movement
And for that I thank him.

Where can I download this GNU OS?

not sure if actual retard or astroturfer

similar question, l'm searchin for a linux os download

alpinelinux.org/downloads/

You don't read much of his work do you?

I love this man. Here is a very logical approach to a nonissue that my stupid coworkers blather about incessantly.
stallman.org/articles/genderless-pronouns.html

that's not linux

What do you mean? It literally is linux.

I see, astroturfer. Thanks.

So you say "pers"
Sounds fucking dumb, dude.

Linux is a kernel.

No linux is an OS.
See alpine linux OS.

No, I legitimately said how I felt.
Don't you feel that way too?

I'm not talking about GNU.

It is the most intellectual solution yet offered (in English, anyway, though the Chinese progressives have adopted a considerably more elegant approach that doesn't translate particularly well to English).

sad, sjw will take mans job

So you say "pers"?
Does anyone else know what you're talking about when you use it, or do you look like a fuckin' retard?

That's a different mailing list retard.

There's still you. Why don't you join the FSF?

When people ask, I explain. It hasn't hindered my career. I don't have time to explain this simple concept to you further.

I say he or she, if offended, I say sorry and know for the next time.

Did you just try to disprove me by posting Stallmans Pro-abortion political message that he unnecessarily put in software code to disprove that he's not a SJW that wants software to be social movement over technical merit?
Thanks for the help.

He's probably the only "famous" guy out there who will answer to your questions.
I've emailed him multiple times for about a decade now, and he'd always reply

Did he comment on github being bought by microsoft or he doesn't care?

he's a pedophile and makes up for his lack of morals and meaning by being stubborn about one narrow area of computing

There is literally nothing wrong with being a pedophile.

> lying on the internet

what you refer to 'linux' is in fact GNU/Linux or GNU + Linux (Linux is an important part of the OS but not the whole system) educate yourself a bit better kid.
