Linus Torvalds is, literally and unironically, an absolute retard. Let me tell you why in a few lines:
>likes (((ultrabooks))) >likes (((macbooks))) >likes (((Chrome OS))) >sucks tranny CoC >opposes the new GPL license >thinks that anonimity is "overrated"
Linus Torvalds is the only likable person in tech and I don't even use Linux
Kevin Anderson
>thinks that anonimity is "overrated" It is though.
Josiah Bell
Crawl back in your mother’s box so she can fucking abort you this time around, you god damn cock sucker.
Lucas Harris
No one with the intellectual limitations you claims he has could have done what he's done.
Noah Sanders
Also
>uses Gnome
Zachary Gray
I have all the same opinions and I have certified 127 IQ
Jaxon Foster
>>opposes the new GPL license Oh no he doesn't like literal shit.
Blake Robinson
>t. BSD cuck
Ryder Young
Gnome is based Fuck off pedophile sympathizer
Luis Sullivan
They're both shit you faggot retard.
Sebastian Butler
Yes, goy. Choose a license that gives corporations "freedumbs" to fuck you in the ass. You are not a pedophile sympathizer, are you, goy?
Luis Nguyen
Yes, goy. Let some fat fuck who eats shit off his foot dictate what software you use. You don’t want to sacrifice your freedom, do you ?
Wyatt Howard
>tfw two retards are accusing eachother of working with jews
Benjamin Campbell
What are you doing on an anonymous board faggot.
Samuel Powell
Nope. Partial anonymity where some users show their real names and others can choose to not do so causes very weird consequences, explained by Torvalds in the interview. However, total anonymity means no one can shill himself, leading to meritocratical discussion, where you can't concentrate a lot of people around you solely because of your name.
TL;DR Partial anonymity destroys discussion, total anonymity is a cure for stupidity on social medias.
Lucas Morgan
Jow Forums would be better if it wasnt anonymous
Nicholas Jenkins
So... basically Reddit?
Nathaniel Smith
Is this the LinusTechTips guy?
Jaxson Butler
Torvalds is an open source gay.
Stallman is the Free Software hero.
Carson Turner
>total anonymity means no one can shill himself, leading to meritocratical discussion yeah because Jow Forums is full of meritocratic discussion it may free you from the tyranny of the individual ego but it doesn't free you from the tyranny of the collective ego
Christopher Price
nah, reddit sucks because it had likes and karma and other stupid shit and non-cronological post ordering
Samuel Scott
Yeah it is, idk why we need to mention LinusTechTips here desu.
Luis Cooper
>an absolute retard
and what have you done in your life user to even be comparable and have an opinion?
Alexander Rogers
I don't want fbi being 100% sure what I'm posting on an ironic board
Asher Long
>ironic Yeah, right.
Andrew Edwards
What do you expect from a Swedish cuck?
Xavier Brooks
Torvalds is a retard, but he's a dick to people online, so the betas on Jow Forums who wish they could get away with treating people like that will suck his cock.
Brody Flores
...
Jaxon Morales
you know you can optionally set your name and email when you post here, right? why can't i see it, fucking retard?
Gavin Fisher
>likes (((ultrabooks))) Tech guy likes tech products. Wow. >likes (((macbooks))) Tech guy likes tech products. Wow. >likes (((Chrome OS))) Tech guy likes tech products. Wow. >sucks tranny CoC Guy who advocated for freedom likes progressive ideals. Wow. >opposes the new GPL license Who cares? >thinks that anonimity is "overrated" Anonimity is not for everyone. In Jow Forums's case, it only hurts people.
Ryder Parker
>Chrome OS >tech product fuck off (((google)))
Jacob Ward
You: dopinder
Linus: deadpool
deadpool: where's you kernel dopinder?
Aaron Watson
I like him for liking MIT and ISC and BSD licenses. He's a good boy.
Brody Watson
Well (((they))) do play both sides against each other after setting up the paradigm.
Linus is a corporate cocksucker, everyone knows that. The only reason he GPLd Linux because he wants others to give back code. He doesn't give a flying shit about what FSF fights for. He doesn't give another shit about the numerous GPL violations Android device manufacturers do with the proprietary drivers, proprietary source, undocumented modifications etc etc.
Blake Gutierrez
Get a trip and name, then. Faggot.
Leo Lewis
Loonis poovalds is just as retarded as his followers
Hunter Long
i will when you and all the other faggots do.
Eli Jenkins
>>opposes the new GPL license Good. If you support that shit you should end yourself.
Ethan Edwards
>total anonymity means no one can shill himself, leading to meritocratical discussion, Imagine believing this. anonymity is good for shitposting and that's about it.
Evan James
No arguments for why any of these are bad. You just sound like a sperg.
Jeremiah Garcia
tranny here why are you so obsessed with the mentally ill? don't you have better things to do?
Matthew Sanders
>Even thinking about no anomity or partial anomity What a shame. Why dp these guys even on Jow Forums. Back ti reddit you normalfags. Anomity is and always been best form of contribution of the next 500 years. One of obvious reason is that you cant eliminate bad people who wont respect your opinion and will do everything to get rid of you when your opinion contrary to them.
For your safety and better privacy anomity is a must.
Luis Thomas
Fact: genuine anonymity makes utterly worthless the top fallacies in debates and discussion, because you know nothing about the other person, because you cannot justify bias against them as particular individuals, hence you must judge them on their words alone. Its greatest weakness is that there is no way to confirm the merits of an anonymous person without having them act it out, and even then it is restrictive. And of course genuine anonymity protects you from a vast amount of harm, while at the same enabling you to do then without getting caught.
Zachary Scott
This "retard" did more in college than most of us will ever do in our lifetimes.
Lincoln Adams
Hole: Knowing their indentity give you bias against them. Because what you care about in an discussion is knownledge and pieces of information regarding to the matter you discuss. Identity is trivial If you judge someone by their intent in an discussion it is perfectly OK and that is what it should be. If their intents are good and their words are reasonable then it does not matter who they are.
Angel Lopez
>new GPL license you mean v3? or are they working on a v4?
Jackson Hall
What is wrong with ChromeOS? It's literally the only desktop OS that plays nice with touch devices.
Evan Johnson
Like?
Ethan Stewart
>anonymity >meritocratical discussion no, it just means i can tell people exactly what i think of their opinions and call them out for being a kike partial anonymity where you have a username but only admins could view it after your stuff got some # of reports would be better for actual discussion so you could be banned for continually shitting up threads and the barrier to entry is slightly higher (maybe impose a cost to register if things get out of hand)
Chase Lopez
tripfags are cancer though
Jackson Williams
Jow Forums already does that >call them out for being a kike Contrary to popular belief, racism is not actually allowed outside /b/
Luis Flores
go into any fucking intel/amd thread rules dont matter as long as it's not nsfw also, judaism is not a race
Josiah Garcia
What the fuck do you mean hole
Jack Thomas
You should report posts that are against the rules, quality is important to this site. >judaism is not a race This is some weak bait, you know exactly why you shouldn't be saying stuff like this.
Easton Richardson
You ever been to Jow Forums? Being anonymous does not stop users from calling each other tranny Jow Forums cucks. Because anyone who disagrees with me is obviously a fucking retard.
Christian Cooper
Read what he said critically, faggot. He said anonymity applied to the _like/share/upvote_ functionality of modern social media is bad. He's not wrong: this is why reddit is such a vapid echo chamber. The reason Jow Forums avoids most of these pitfalls is because posts are ephemeral and the only way to garner more visibility is to actually generate discussion; rather than farming for some low effort clicks on the like button.
Jordan Foster
He's also a firm believer of communism because of his dad.
Parker Hill
So what? No one on here is entitled to a deep and meaningful discussion. However with anonymity, two people can have a serious discussion based on only their words alone and no other bullshit getting in there way. It happens from time to time and I think it's very valuable.
Gabriel Cook
Because no one ever create a meaningful thread in Jow Forums. Try to create some meaningful thread in Jow Forums if there is anything to discuss about other than fanboy a vs fanboy b. Anything regarding application and implementation of electronics hobbies in RL all got moved to diy.
In fact they should merge Jow Forums and /sci/ into one there will be more things to talk about. Because Jow Forums is all about technology and most technology based on sciences. There will be more things to talk about if they extend the topics.
Chase Butler
We have (You)s and red exclamation points now but someone still needs to reply as a post which is still more effort than upboating.
Bentley Peterson
>I like X which got moved to a different board so there are no meaningful discussions on Jow Forums Just go to /diy/ then and stop crying about it.
Parker Peterson
why they don't merge Jow Forums and /sci/ though, both boards are heavily related and both board lacks of members and discussion (in comparision to /a/)
Julian Flores
He does only live for the kernel
Jeremiah Peterson
Because Jow Forums has a huge focus on software which is not really terribly relevant to /sci/.
Levi Parker
>search >programming >literally 1 to 2 main thread and a couple more troll threads/1000 threads >huge focus
Bentley Jones
>a search for programming is an accurate gauge of how many threads on Jow Forums are software-oriented
Nolan Sanchez
user...
Henry Richardson
got 'em. what a faggot
Elijah Gonzalez
Torvalds is the archetypal based retard. I respect him.
great way to kill time, join a blm place and act as if you're a nazi and immediately afterward hop on pol and post with a blm flag
William Young
>Guy who advocated for freedom What
Asher Rogers
unless it’s kernel development, I don’t care about Linus’ opinions just like I’m not interested in stephen hawking’s opinions on AI.
Oliver Morgan
>Its not murder if I pretend its not.
Kayden Watson
unlike other techfags he doesn't stick his dick in your face when you are not asking for it. So his opinion is not harmful unless you want it to be.
Evan Morales
i love doing systems programming on a macbook desu
Cooper Morgan
>He's never heard of Terry Davis
Nathaniel Davis
What did he do? Writing ~2% of Linux? Wew
Landon Bennett
>implying the mentally ill schizophrenic genius was retarded >being so dedicated to conflating mental illness with retardation that you're willing to just ignore all a person's achievements wew
Mason Myers
>conflating mental illness with retardation Schizoid retard detected.
>Not knowing that Mongoloid imbecility & retardation were originally medical terms for autism
Hudson Morales
>>likes (((ultrabooks))) >>likes (((macbooks))) >>likes (((Chrome OS))) I get the feeling you're a windows user who plays video games and can't imagine a computer without a discrete gpu
David Mitchell
based and redpilled
Jose Hernandez
I get the feeling you're a node.js developing Macfaggot.
Lincoln Martin
Sounds like he touched a nerve there, buddy.
Justin Lee
nice bait. enjoy your (((replies)))
Ayden Rodriguez
wtf you say about gnome. i a 5,2ft tall man will fight you
Austin Mitchell
retard and overrated
Logan Johnson
i hate jews
Xavier Lee
>Guy who advocated for freedom likes progressive ideals. "Progressive ideals and freedom are not compatible
Benjamin Hughes
This is a retarded thread. Who cares what he likes or doesn't? What matters is software. If you think you can do better and demonstrate whatever values you are trying to signal here, go for it, we'll look at your codebase. If you have no alternative other than to sell ourselves to the CIA for $3000 then fuck off, we're full of retards already.
You hear this a lot: "A thread died for this." While accurate, this phrase generally carries no weight. But just this once, if you would do me a favor and hear me out, it would do all of us a lot of good.
A. Thread. Died. For this. You woke up this morning, poured yourself a bowl of Faggot Flakes, moistened them with your impotent Faggot prostate milk (which IS in fact impotent, because you're a fucking faggot) and, within seconds, decided that today of all days would be the time you decide to cut your synapse firing quota by just a little too much.
So you hopped online, carved out this uninspired chicken scratch, probably failed the captcha once for every strand of peach fuzz on your half-empty sack, and clicked Submit.
At that moment, a thread died. A thread that could have been bumped. A thread that could have been resurrected with content, or valuable discourse between its denizens. Hell, it could've even been bumped for absolutely no reason. And that would've been okay. Because, had it survived, a few more seconds could have been spent without having had your abortion of a post been born in this world.
Jack Harris
wow dude, some talented engineer has a different preference for consumer hardware than you, i guess that means you're much smarter than him, right?
>imaging actually being this bereft of accomplishment that you judge people for owning macbooks
