>/g/-tard's giving other /g/-tards shit for using proprietary software
>"muh freedom"
>"windows users should be burned alive"
>"game developers are retarded because they make their games closed-source"
>/g/-tards don't realise that game developers need money too and if they released the source code no-one would buy the game because you could just compile it yourself, resulting in being homeless
>praises a fat-ass who goes on autistic fits about free software and proprietary software and shit

I agree that the free-software and open-source movement's are essential, and they are important, but jesus christ Is there some other place that doesn't have autistic fits like /g/?

Free-software is a meme here, no one takes it seriously, OP.

I'm fine with games being closed source, I have an issue with them having DRM. I love open source/Foss otherwise

RMS is fine with gamedevs selling closed non-code assets last I checked. They can open source the engine but it won't be of any use with the game assets, much like the original DOOM, you'll have to buy the game to get the assets or pirate them from somewhere.

No one said that, OP. /g/ is not the one person who made you mad by saying those things once.

A thread died for this.

What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you proprietary slave? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class at Harvard, and I’ve been involved in numerous free software projects, and I have contributed to over 300 core-utils for GNU. I am skilled in Lisp and I’m St. IGNU-cius, saint of the Church of Emacs. You are nothing to me but just another unethical non-free software advocate. I will distribute the fuck out of your source code with freedom the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit about me and the GPL on the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my colleagues at FSF and your binaries are being reversed engineered right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your copyright. You're fucking dead, kid. Free software can be anywhere, anytime, and it can ensure your freedom in over four ways, and that’s just with the GPLv2. Not only am I extensively skilled at hacking, but I have access to the source of the entire GNU userland and core-utils and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable proprietary code off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what ethical retribution your little “clever” program was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have ensured your users' freedom. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit free as in freedom all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo.
