>I shall play you the GNU/Song of my people

I respect him for living what he preaches, but he's not the right type of person to represent a movement to normies.

A flawled hero. He espouses the virtues of software freedom which is good but is a commie jew so probably has some ulterior motive which is bad.

this dude is the ultimate zoomer filter.

haha no

Free software is communism which is a good thing.

bluepilled faggots

He fights for your freedoms so we can behave like children online.

>im 19 and regurgitate imageboard memes in place of original thought

non player character

Now, If on the other hand he's been more like Jobs.... well, THEN normies might actually listen to his message.

FOSS isn't about money. You can sell GPL licensed software to anyone.

FOSS is about control. It's about completely owning the software you use.

Used to write terrible, bloated code.
Doesn't do much today.
Thinks everyone should use his name just because.
Tries to leech off other people's projects and claim them for himself or his project (GNU).
Eats his own feet crust.

Advocates for some retarded "freedom" of software.

>It's about completely owning the software you use.
It's not even about ownership. It's about the freedom of your software. It's about preventing others from imposing limitations on your software.

He is literally a communist kike.

And you're a knuckledragging alpha-male? Is that an argument?

>freedom of your software.
>imposing limitations on your software.
Do you not understand how retarded this sounds?

No. Exactly, how retarded does I, the person that is me, sound? Any analogies?

Can't help but notice that your soi is dripping,

Thank you. Literally. I literally thank you!

k-keep me posted

anytime you are very welcome

Thanks dude. Literally.

Can anyone point me to any code he has written?

absolutely

Literally what?

gcc

emacs

>Exactly, how retarded does I, the person that is me, sound?
Extremely.

That's a retarded claim. Extremely isn't very exact by any stretch. Are you gay?

Linus Sebastian the creator of the Linux kernel

False, the linux kernel was created by the guy from Linux Tech Tips

He wrote a fucken compiler. Linus has not finished his compiler yet and suffers humilation from Stallman.

EATS

Old Mick Foley

How would companies make money if anyone can use the code to make a free copy?

Good programmer, godfather of the free software movement, annoying libtard communist.

He made my computer.

how redhat does it, sell support

He sperged because he couldn't just fix a fucked up drive from a printer and created the fsf

>How would companies make money if anyone can use the code to make a free copy?

Not everyonr but the one who obtained a licence. If you copy software under GNU GPL from someones PC without owners knowledge you are breaking law and commit "unauthorized copyin of software" a.k.a. "piracy".

A truckload of companies do earn money by releasing code as FLOSS to their clients and shiet. Amazon, Netflix and shiet runs on a truckload of custom or customized FLOSS code. Of course they bought that code from 3rd part companies that modified it and delivered under NDA.

Based and redpilled
>father of free software
>calls it the proper way
>communist + libertarian (not the capitalist shit kind)
cant get better

when de fug he stated he is communist?

He's on the right track but a little too deep into to be a driving force in the world.
Someone less autistic but with the same values/ideas would be something out of a holy book

He got a hand pain from his own text editor

This ugly son of a bitch is using super hot free software, and, basically, you are fucking stupid. How?... Just read the GPL v3.

Fucked up GNU/Hurd.
Got his toy project abandoned for another one's toy project that ended upbeing what power most of the worlds infrastructure in the past 30 years.

Fat, disgusting kike pedophile.

literally the second coming of christ prove me wrong

PROTIP: you can't

its not imposing limitation, you read wrong, he said preventing people from imposing limitation to your software, limitation goes against freedom so preventing limitation does not contradicts software freedom

Fatass piece of shit shill socialist autist that fucked everything up that autist retards on here support. Fuck him and fuck what he did to loonix.

FPBP

Ugly, introvert women are like ugly, introvert men. They have lots of hobbies and they're generally smarter than the average normie. And by the way, pretty much all women look hideous without makeup. It's just a fact of life.

Eats shit from his foots

He is the mascot of open source software. He fits that bill very well, he looks exactly like what you would expect someone who pioneered open source to look and sound like, old long hair hippy, ex-techy. Thats all the general public sees or understands. He gets invited a lot to normie news shows because sound bytes of him sort of sound like what you would expect extreme open source community to say.

The next step beyond that are people in the tech field who have sort of swallowed the memes of rms being an open source leader without actually reading/researching exactly what he said. They parrot things like 'free software' and 'GNU operating system' not being aware what rms's definition of 'freedom' actually is or even understanding what an OS kernel vs userspace is.

Then you have people who are tech-savy enough to know that rms is an actual commie who's rhetoric is modeled after early 19th century marxism and that is 'OS' is just a copy of unix utilities. Its a waste of time to try and educate people about what rms really is, no one cares, rms will die a funny old fanatic that will be forgotten like all the funny old fanatics before him.

A guy who doesn't give his info to big companies by using only free software but still tells everyone everything about his life in interviews.
Also i think he has mental issues.

he is a self suficient man. he grows food on hes own feet (freegan), Surpassed communism and Capitalism on his ideals of free software and cant be target of botnets. Cant find a more illuminated human. "install gentoo" to reach first level of illumination.

The Open Source community has a notable man called Stallman. When he was young, he wanted to write his own software, but everything he wrote ended up becoming a notepad. Once upon a time, struggling with implementing the “onKey” event, he found a letter from a Finnish student who wanted to write his own OS. He wrote, in particular, “hello, I’m 17 and I wrote a bootloader, pls help me write the rest, my OS is almost ready. Linus from Finland”. Stallman responded: “Hello, my name is Richard Stallman, I’ve already written a notepad for Unix and I think I can help you write your own OS, young man” The first thing Richard did was to try write a kernel for Linus’ bootloader, which he called The hURD. Unfortunately, once again it ended up being a text editor. Linus was angry and then another person, called Cox, came and wrote the whole kernel. He was a very good British man who could not stand others feel bad. Stallman, seeing how his fame is being stolen by Cox, said: “I have already written many notepads for the Linux system, you cannot just delete it all”. Linux had to agree, due to their friendship, and left all the notepads inside the Linux. It was renamed to “the GNU’. To this day, even in 2015, we can enjoy the beauty of Stallman’s genius. For example, there’s a program which takes one file and renames it to another file. Also, there’s a program which deletes a file. Windows doesn’t have such things. Just imagine Linux without such software.

Stallman’s magnum opus is emacs. It’s one of his notepads where he put a scripting language into. Only a visioner is capable of writing a text editor and putting a scripting language there. Some may say it’s 1 grade students’ project, but they will be wrong, as Stallman didn’t put there Basic or Pascal — he’s put there Lisp. It’s a very powerful language, because it’s functional (Basic and Pascal are called dysfunctional). From what I understood reading Wikipedia, functional languages are very awesome because they’re very math. Only smartest people can code in them because it’s too math for common people. Basic is not enough math, C is not enough math, Lisp is a lot of math because it’s functional. So emacs has Lisp in it, so it’s a very good editor made by a innovator and a genius, who understands math and functions.

When he turned 62, Stallman got a bit tired of writing notepads, so he founded Free Software Foundation to promote his ideas. The foundation’s main idea is that you cannot use a program unless it’s written by Stallman himself. He believes that anything not written by Stallman is potentially a patent troll and a vendor lock-in, because there’re no guarantees to Stallman, and only Stallman gives guarantees to himself. And we again return to the topic of notepads, unfortunately. In a perfect world, there are not other programs, but notepads written by Richard Stallman. Preferably with LISPs inside (no less than 85% functional). Maybe Stallman is right, maybe he is wrong, I can’t tell for sure. What I know for sure is that he’s a visioner, an innovator, and we definitely should at least consider his opinion.

Nice KKKuads my dude
