Careercow Richard Stallman / rms - Dirty old communist hobo who eats his own footskin. HURD release: Never. Parrot sex: Imminent.

I'm honestly not gonna listen to a 37-minute recording that should have been an article
I had a listen to it over lunch, you didn't miss anything that hasn't already been said.

>Lunduke hates the Twitter "lynch mob" mentality
>"I've criticized rms to his face for the stupid things he says. That's what a real man does."
>Calling for the erasure of the FSF board is a ludicrous and terrifying precedent
>"My warning to the FSF board members: they will never forgive you. You could give them everything they want and they will still never forgive you."
>People don't like Lunduke because of his politics, <insert story about getting physically removed from a con here>
>Lunduke knows many of the names on the petition personally and is "very disappointed in all of you, some more than others"

Lunduke has some great points, of course. He really didn't need to drag it out to 43 minutes to say them though.
 
I love how all these trannies out for blood completely ignore the fact that Stallman is clearly autistic, which might have a wee something to do with his social ineptitude, hygiene, and what they see as stubbornness. I'm not sure I've ever heard of a case of him being malicious, Just fucking weird, awkward, and with odd points of view.

>Ree don't discriminate against autists, empower them instead
>Ree make this empowered autist fuck off

I find it pretty funny, if a little sad, tbh.
I don't think he himself acts with malicious intent, just that the outcome of his behavior is abusive.

I can't say for sure, but I think stuff like this has been tried already. I'm pretty sure over the years there have been people installed at the various orgs as kind of a filter. To your point: I don't think anything has/will/can work out.
It's the twitter effect. If you're a PR person, you can't really babysit someone 24/7 and stop them from making a twitter account and accusing Guatemalans of being from Jupiter.

if you are in the RMS lolcow thread being a autist about FOSS and .NET 5.0 then seriously lol you have ZERO self-awareness.
Kiwifarms is by autists, for autists, to make fun of other autists.
 
revolution os is comfy

Stallmann is cool but weird and all his more out-there stances are usually pure obsessive semantics. I can only recommend just emailing him if you wonder about any particular stance of him, he's surprisingly responsive.

But what really makes him a lolcow is that he's instrumental in the process of generating drama forceful enough to tear apart the Free Software Foundation, one of the most (historically, at least) influential organizations in technology.
lol the FSF is nothing without Stallman furry
His rider has a whole paragraph about how he hopes someone will shack him up with a parrot. Not a badly kept parrot of course. He wants lovemaking, not a prostitute.
You know very well that he has no intention of sexually abusing a parrot or any other animal.

I would like to know more about the history of the RMS rider, especially whether there are earlier versions of it archived somewhere. I should probably just ask the man himself to be honest. While Stallman is undoubtedly pretty autistic, a good amount of the autism in that document is almost certainly there because other people's autism made it necessary.
RMS said:
My talks are not technical. The topics of free software, copyright vs community, and digital inclusion deal with ethical/political issues that concern all users of computers. The topics of GPL version 3 and software patents are mainly of of interest to people that work with software.
is presumably in there because people invited him to give a talk and then solely asked about ways to extend Emacs. Same reason as the clause requesting that people not buy parrots just because he enjoys their company.
RMS said:
DON'T buy a parrot figuring that it will be a fun surprise for me. To acquire a parrot is a major decision: it is likely to outlive you. If you don't know how to treat the parrot, it could be emotionally scarred and spend many decades feeling frightened and unhappy. If you buy a captured wild parrot, you will promote a cruel and devastating practice, and the parrot will be emotionally scarred before you get it. Meeting that sad animal is not an agreeable surprise.
EDIT: Yup...
t may well have happened. I helped organized his talk at Concordia University a few years ago, and this text was slightly different back then. It specified that he'd like to meet a parrot. But that's it. Just was one sentence, giving little information. Given that this is his standard text, I bet someone bought a parrot at one point over the last few years, and that prompted this seemingly peculiar addition.

It has been said before, but you gotta respect Stallman for valuing his weirdo autist principles over any sort of pragmatism. Like imagine using wget for every single page you visit or never doing any online payments ever. I think overall he's a well meaning guy. I don't give a shit if he is attracted to parrots as long as he doesn't go out and fuck them. Let the man eat his toenails in peace.

every kiwifarms post about a cow is supposed to be written in the most repulsive hate filled way possible, i actually respect the man for his convictions and my own personal effort to not rely on megacorp cloud services for my personal life is in some ways directly inspired by him. I just think the drama's really funny; and, I also think he should probably be off the board and in like an (equal paying) advisory/speech-giving capacity only

autism votes only on this post please

" "I exercise my authority over glibc very rarely – and when I have done so, I have talked with the official maintainers," he explained. "So rarely that some of you thought that you are entirely autonomous. But that is not the case. On this particular question, I made a decision long ago and stated it where all of you could see it.""



i take it all back, fuck me daddy stallman
 
You obviously never tried running a .net application under Linux.
Seriously, it's easier running a classic Win32 program under a non-Windows platform than fucking .net.

They rely on Windows libraries that are NOT cross-platform - any .net application that does more than print out "hello word" to the console will NOT run under Linux.
If you want a .net application to be actually cross-platform you need to target mono with GTK# etc. instead of using the Microsoft environment. Almost no software does this.
That is not true under .NET Core. Yes, for a native UI you would have to use GTK or some kind of Qt wrapper but that's true for literally every native UI in Linux.

.NET Core allows direct OS + architecture targeting and you can dig through the underlying C/C++ if you want.

Speaking of interesting things, I notice that a month after that storm in a tea cup occurred in May 2018, actual free software proponent and thus staunch Stallman ally Alexandre Oliva (who is also on the FSF board) moved to a new job, having previously worked at Red Hat for almost a decade.

REALLY MAKES YOU THINK. Almost like Red Hat cocksucking faggots forced him out for not loving trans dick enough.

And all over a controversy started by a shitposter using a cock.li address.

Don't get me wrong, I think a RMS general thread should have existed for a long time. His antics are fascinating and he fits the definition of exceptional individual. I feel sympathy for him because he's a true character who stands for what he believes, however retarded it might be. I haven't looked into the inner workings of FSF so I can't speak on if he should step down or not. I just think its cruel to take (in his own words) the only child away from an almost 70 year old man. He dedicated his life to the cause and probably hasn't much going on besides open sauce shilling. He loses a lot of sympathy for defending pedophilia, but that stuff has been out there for 15 years so any reputational damage to the projects he's involved in has already been done. On the other hand, he is a left wing politisperg so he should be aware of the consequences of committing thought crimes™. To be fair, he's also a supremely autistic man who probably can't even conceptualize how others might react to him putting his most degenerate thoughts out for the world to read. He open sources his brain and is willing to let people know exactly how he sees the world outside of the FLOSStism-sphere.
Whatever tranny is looking to replace him as head of the GNUtards wouldn't be nearly as principled as saint IGNUcius himself.
 
There has always been a line between the free software movement and commercial tech. I grew up in the Bay Area and tech was only mysterious if you had no curiosity about it. People forget early on tech/computing was this proprietary thing jealously guarded by companies like IBM and Xerox and not easily accessed without years of training. Computers were mainframes that required making punch cards to execute a function. When microprocessors became a thing and computers became smaller they also became cheaper and more accessible; thus, in the hippy and communal Bay Area there was always a push to make software free. Stallman is from that era and background (although he's not from the Bay Area). Gates and Jobs didn't create hardware and software, they were just businessmen that sold computers. Stallman created a computer program that's still used today and made it free.

I'm glad he's around and yeah he's a weirdo but without Stallman making free software his raison d'etre we'd all be slaving away on the Microsoft Windows SUXBALLZ XP 2021.14 Plebe Edition and paying $9.99 a month for Adobe Flash to rape our hardware on the regular while every phone would be a Windows nightmare. I'm only sorry he didn't have a Sancho Panza to team up with to advocate for free (as in free from proprietary standards and NSA spyware) hardware because it's slowly throttling the free software movement by making it harder to run a FOSS OS or programs. That's the only thing I fault him for, not seeing the effect proprietary hardware has on software and by extension, computing. But he's still important and should keep his fan club, as someone in this thread put it.

Steve Jobs company NeXT (which later was bought by Apple and became the tech behind the Mac and iPhone) used the GNU tools extensively. The Objective-C compiler until the 2010s was GCC. Without Richard Stallman there would be no modern Apple.

There's a funny story were Steve Jobs tried to talk with Stallman in the early 90s, but I can't find a source.
A dude with BLM/pronouns in his profile claiming he is fighting to respects teh womenz.

Definitely not a creep.
He gets weirdly aggressive and angry during his livestreams, too. Something not quite right. Pity because the content he makes is like pure crack cocaine to me.
