fucked up there

rationalwiki.org/wiki/Eric_S._Raymond

>"Rational" wiki.
Come on now

literally everything on that page speaks in his favor

>Unfortunately, his work and expertise in computer technology[1][2] has been all but overshadowed by his batshit insane wingnut tendencies in the wake of 9/11, his misogynistic claims,[3] and his increasingly wanky ego-gazing,[4][5] as he acknowledges that people aren't so crazy about him anymore.

all positive.

>not a communist like RMS
Richard is not a communist.
>not a filthy manchild
Prove it.
>does actual development instead of just trying to force communist ideology on college students
RMS doesn't need to develop anymore because he already did enough.
>can shoot a gun (don't get fooled by his lazy eye)
Not an argument for a developer.
>uses i3 -> all for convenience
i3 is shit and so are you.
>doesn't think of himself as some sort of guru or messiah
San IGNUcius is satirical, you asswipe.

>wants to nuke the middle east
>isn't an atheist virgin
>holds a healthy mistrust against gays
>likes to remind women of their place in society


he is the true messiah

yeah, he is better than rms, and les egocentric than Torvalds

we should have him as the boards Sup Forumsod

>he already did enough
rms didn't do shit in years. none of the stuff he developed was particularly outstanding or useful. btw his satirical alter ego isn't the point here. rms seriously thinks of himself as the most important human in history. maybe overcompensating for never getting laid. filthy manchild virgin

>open source movement

>rms didn't do shit in years. none of the stuff he developed was particularly outstanding or useful
Except GCC and starting the FSF, the free software movement, the GNU Project (in which he contributed), the GPL and inspiring thousands of people to use/develop free software.
>btw his satirical alter ego isn't the point here. rms seriously thinks of himself as the most important human in history

>maybe overcompensating for never getting laid. filthy manchild virgin
Stop projecting.

He's a useless retard who has literally never done anything
He also screeches the 'crackers aren't hackers' meme because he's too dumb to learn that words chsnge

>starting the FSF, the free software movement
so he started a club for filthy manchildren like himself and then gets angry at a fork he's not in control of... good job, rms

>>not a filthy manchild
>leave shit hair and mostage unshaved

he's not a meme.

>so he started a club for filthy manchildren like himself
Nice fallacy you've got there.
>and then gets angry at a fork he's not in control of...
Oh, so you're another of those "Linux is a OS XDDDD" retards, huh? Opinion discarded.

Why are there so many RMS hate threads lately?
I don't like his personality either but I can't deny that he's done a lot of good things for IT world.

he did.
he's just pathetic in the way he overreacts to things not fitting his scheme. That's what got hom the meme status.

gnu is a cult and having stallman as Sup Forumss idol just shows more of Sup Forumss ignorance
gng.z505.com/cult.htm

>Sup Forums never was cynical or ironical
how new are you?

low iq argument and a strawman

...

>"rational"
>many articles are biased toward ideologies based on emotion and bad feelings

>Coincidentally, "Yonder Racism" is an anagram of his name.
Yeah, real rational wiki you got there.

The cathedral and the bazaar.
Just singing the praises of copyleft.
OP has absolutely zero clue what he's talking about.

Given that its rationalwiki that's a compliment. I don't trust anyone described well by that website.

>all the backlash about RMS
You can pretty much say the same thing about MAMEDev.
>Shuns anyone that refuses to dump their games
>A bunch of the devs are filthy manchildren, one autistic, including russian rejects like p1pkin
>Forces "the MAME way" ideology on anyone that comes across by them
>"If it has an option to replace textures or to upscale the polygons, it's A HACK!!!!!" compared to "If it doesn't meet a requirement of our Four Freedoms, it's NOT FREE!!!!"
>thinks that themselves are gurus and messiahs of development history, try to boast themselves around with "musings" like they are whimsy smartasses
RetroArch will kick them in the ground in the same way that Eric S. Raymond will.

I think it's a few bsd fanbois.

>"rational" wiki
>everything that hurts my feelie weelies or destroys my sjw narrative is bad

Nah, I'll pass.

>>not a filthy manchild
>esr
ha

esr can't even code. His life's work is all in HTML.

>what is GIFLIB
>what is ncurses

and that's the two I only personally used

>no gpsd installed

Fucking hell that website is full of fallacies and false assumptions. No idea why would anyone not batshit insane and obsessed with currysoft products use it as an argument

gng.z505.com/books.htm
>Many GNU folks charge money for books.. but demand all source be given away free of charge and speech.
How did he come to this conclusion? Did he even read the fucking license?

>there is no free book license
What is the GNU free document license?

That stallman bio is published under it

who was shitty features to preexisting code?

you mean I can modify it and publish it?

Literally who?

Seriously, how THE FUCK you guys don't know him? He's such a great programmer and a key piece in the opensource movement.

Ya'll should be ashamed.

Some edgy faggot who still believes in anarchy past 14

>Be RMS
>forces communist GPL on everyone forcing to opensource their trade secrets.
>"not a communist"
Explain yourself.

is that his daughter

gcc is a pile of shit for any arch but 386

"It remains the case that open source is better than free software, because libertarians wash." Sup Forums BTFO

>doesn't think of himself as some sort of guru or messiah
He thought of himself as an ebin supa hakka guru though. You can't even guess how butthurted the old Lisp hacker culture got when ESR did perverted things with their hacker's dictionary and made a ``2nd edition''

yeah

sagitter.fedorapeople.org/faif-2.0.pdf

there you go :^)

>all these people saying "communist" as if it was a bad thing

>implying that anyone with an IQ over 120 is monogamous

yeah, summer/pol/ is getting in its last hurrah before it has to GO BACK.

if it's so great why don't you live in Cuba?

If capitalism is so great why don't you live in Zimbabwe?
If libertarianism is so great why don't you live in Somalia?
If moral purity is so great why don't you kill yourself?
etc.

>If capitalism is so great why don't you live in Zimbabwe?
>If libertarianism is so great why don't you live in Somalia?
Because niggers are retarded

so not the right flavor of communism? you need gay space communism huh

>If capitalism is so great why don't you live in Zimbabwe?
Because I already live in a capitalist country. You don't however, so you have no right to complain unless you pack your bags and move to cuba.

>because I already live in a meme
Too bad, larper.

seize the means pussy

...

But they can't buy McDonald's

you left out internet censorship

I don't take orders from you, cuck.
In due time. As soon as the USA empire falls, there won't be much to stop it.

how are you going to deal with the foreign countries vying for power?

>implying that buying is freedom
>implying that buying isn't slavery
>implying that buying mcdonalds is anything more than the way to illness and cancer
>thinks the world is like Sup Forumsidya

>implying that the US doesn't already do that
>especially if you have ill to speak of the (((imperial center)))
You're still living in a meme.

Let them.

this

you just spoke against the imperial center and I can read it. doesn't seem very censored to me. what do you mean I'm living in a meme?

what if it's a capitalist country comrade?

>eradicated hunger
>cuba
lol

>solid public healthcare
>not corrupt and gives preferential treatment to rich foreigners
lol

>why isn't he our header?

Because he doesn't actually code. Go look up his actual contributions they're pathetic. His contribution to fetchmail is widely considered as some of the worst publicly available source code. Both Linus, Stallman and countless other are light years ahead of him.

They don't chop off the parts of their dicks that make them able to understand the concept of "enough" like you do, jew.

>implying that the smallest breach in a censorship regime renders the whole thing ruined

You've forgotten the most important point which is that the ladies love him

>be consumer

U a poo tbqh

Yes ;3
Not him but still

Say what you want about RMS but ultimately he will continue to be proven right again and again.

If GPLv3 was adopted Android wouldn't be such a clusterfuck

He's often insightful and has made important contributions to open source theory. I read his blog and he's frequently an entertaining writer. He's got a really fragile and enormous ego and is often a crank though.
