>>62081214
so why have RMS as the mascot if 99% of people shit on him?

Because they're botnet-supporting bullies who don't even care about they're own freedoms :C

>>62081190
Cause he goes autistic if he sees something without source code being available for it. Not everyone has to share their source and give it out for free, you aren't entitled to shit. RMS feels different though

>>62081190
everybody makes fun of him.

It's the nicest thing he deserves.

>>62081190
People don't understand him and his mission.
They echo things other anons here have said without looking up anything themselves.

The beautiful thing about poisoning the biases of a group is that you only need to do it once, and then the group believes your opinions forever.

This is what the open source "movement" has done to Stallman's vision. It's no longer about freedom, it's about "access" to the source code because, well, idk, "open source" said so?

(It was not sold that way by Lenovo, however.)

Because he has done great things and he is human. He has helped change the world of tech by being one of the early trend setters on the idea of FOSS/FOSH. He also goes around autisticly screeching about open source at times and eats shit from his foot. It's a good thing to humanize idols as hero worship leads to stagnation and echo chambers.

Linus writes beautiful code. He has published some side projects that he wrote all on his own and the code is just wonderful. He also lives in the real world while still maintaining his open source ideals and supporting himself through his work.

RMS is basically a homeless loser who hasn't made any real contributions in the last 20 years. He is still super butthurt that Linux beet HURD (but hey, HURD just got basic sound support in 2016!) and basically tries to claim Linux because Linus used GCC and the GNU coreutils. He survives on the charity of others and speaking engagements where he spouts his insane, paranoid, philosophy. Basically he won't be happy until all the programmers are homeless hackers like him and all the companies are shut down. How people are supposed to support themselves and their families in that scenario aren't things he has to deal with because he is basically a permanent grad student. He does make some good points about privacy, but for him, there is no middle ground. Anything that may reduce your privacy even the slightest bit (like movie recommendations on Netflix) is evil according to him, and must be destroyed. In a lot of ways he show classic signs of mental splitting, which is a classic symptom of mental illness. To top it off, when he does write code, he does so in the style of the awful GNU style guide which is a crime against humanity IMHO.

So, in a nutshell:
He's a bird-fucking, self-absorbed, power hungry, toe jam eating pedophile that thinks everything should be free and everyone should be forced to share, who looks like he hasn't showered in years so as to create a static shield around his body to protect from aliens. He also created an OS without a kernel because he's basically Steve Jobs gone communist. Oh, and he calls himself doctor though he holds no PhD.

>>62081843
stallman is not a philosophically pure person. he follows his ideals when convenient, and ignores them or slightly alters them when the conflict isn't worth it.

stallman is an egoist in denial, afraid of admitting that he just wants some fucking source code instead of a world where he has to rely on other people because he knows he wouldn't get it that way.

his system has some practical merits but his attempts at creating moral justifications are completely pathetic and nonsensical. how low do you have to be to have to make up bullshit "oughts" when you can just say "it would be fucking better"?

>>62081843
It's time to face the facts. Richard Stallman is nothing more than a whining, overly obese autistic manbaby who has not done anything beneficial for the computing OR technology world in the past 20 years. Seriously. Name something that RMS has done after 1995 besides bitching, crying, and moaning about bullshit that does not matter, or making some retarded, incomprehensible speech.

He demands that Linux be called GNU/Linux. That is fucking insane. The only reason GNU, GPL, and FSF are still a THING is because of Linus and the invention of Linux. If anything, Stallman should rename GNU to Linux/GNU, because without Linus, the GNU, GPL, and FSF would not be a thing anymore.

Stallman still has the fucking gonads to act like he's superior to everyone else. Saying shit such as "I'm not glad he's dead, but I'm glad he's gone" right after Steve Jobs' death. What an asshole. Stallman has not even programmed a single line of code since 2008, that was AFTER he essentially stopped in 1992.

He should be fucking grateful Linus stepped in to save his ass, and even allowing him to take partial credit for his achievements. If it wasn't for Linus, he would be nothing, he would probably be dead in a Burger King dumpster right now.

Besides, what has he ever even done? He claims to have written eMacs, but in reality he actually cloned gosmacs (the first eMacs that was made for UNIX). He didn't even write 50% of the code in eMacs.

You might say he wrote GCC and GDB, but the truth is that he initally wrote the C compiler, but now the vast majority for the same compiler is done by contributors.

He's a washed up, morbidly obese man who tries to stay relevant by having these retarded arguments that are similar to those found in the Soviet Union. Face it GNU/Freetards, Richard Stallman is a fat dickhead, and the only reason his name is still in the books is because of Linus's achievements.

>>62081190
As for the question in the related pic, rms does not connect to the internet 24/7 as the rest of the fags here. Only connects to internet at his place when he needs to send the mails he already wrote or commit some code or publish articles already written.

>In some ways, Linux was the project that really made the split clear between what the FSF is pushing which is very different from what open source and Linux has always been about which is more of a technical superiority instead of a — this religious belief in freedom.

Only thing I'll say in my defense is I never claimed he has done anything of note recently only that he was an early trend setter and I imagine my position is the norm among people here so it still answers OP's question.

So magically all people would be good? What kind of retarded thinking is that.
People copied VHS, they did so with DVDs, they do it with Blu Rays. Without DRM isn't stopping anything, but without it, it would be even easier.

Suppose for a moment that you are a movie reviewer. You see a blatantly racist scene in a movie that you want to point out in your review. You try to take a screenshot, but the DRM prohibits you. You are LEGALLY PERMITTED to take that screenshot for the purpose of the review, but the DRM doesn't care.
Another example is a cinematography teacher who sees an amazing example of audio mixing done perfectly. If they try to rip just that scene so that they can play it in their classroom, the DRM prevents them. Again, a LEGALLY PERMITTED action being blocked by DRM.
These aren't niche things that only complete weirdos would need to do, these are common, everyday things.

Thing is, they sell things they didn't invest in. They bought the right for cheap and now make profit out of it. They don't care how big the sales are.
They aren't selling movies they invested millions in to get their money back.

>Hosting is free? Bandwidth is free? Electricity is free? Maintenance is free? Purchasing the rights to even sell the games in the first place is free?
They invest in the site/servers/jobs, not in the product. The product is a one time fee they pay and easily turn into a profit.

It's easy for them to not care about DRM, easy enough to even make it a slogan that they are against DRM if they have not much of it in the first place.

That's exactly what RMS is fighting for, the Netflix part isn't about DRM, it's about standing his ground.
People get it wrong that RMS fights for everything should be free and you should share your source code, etc. No, he just stands for freedom to do so, forcing people to do so isn't freedom.

A lot of people here get that wrong, the same people who shit on DRM for existing and think RMS wants to force everyone to open source their shit.

I recently heard Stallman speak for the first time ever on some "futurism" podcast that I listen to occasionally (the April Fools episode was amazingly hilarious, look for it). He was very well spoken, and his weird ideas made a lot of sense, but Jaysus he was borderline autistic and laughably upset over every little thing the interviewer said.

His ideals remind me of hardcore weirdo Libertarians. They're extremely consistent, logically sound ideals that don't work for actual human beings.

That's not true at all.
They have to pay for the licenses, there's a lot of old games that they used to sell there and are not for sale anymore because the licenses expired. Stop spewing bullshit.

Also, what about the AAA launches they do there?
You're gonna simply ignore it and only talk about the old games?

Retard.

Not using DRM. CDs didn't have DRM. Books didn't have DRM. Radio and TV broadcasts didn't have DRM. People still got rich as fuck selling that media.
>b-b-but peeple wil qopy da media with no dee arrgh ehm
As if DRM stops anything. The Pirate Bay is doing just fine.
DRM doesn't stop illegal sharing of shit and treats legit customers like shit. It's cancer.

>>62085947
>Netflix makes their own series, so yes.
GOG is owned by CD Projekt. CD Projekt makes the Witcher series. CD Projekt puts the Witcher series on GOG. Therefor, CD Projekt invests in what they sell on GOG.


Let's do a bit of roleplay. I'm GOG, you're any studio which wants money.

>Hi, let me put your games on my platform where anyone can pirate them with absolutely no repercussions. I'll give you $20, final offer.

Your response?

>>62085969
>Stop spewing bullshit.
You already answered, the licence expired. They didn't find it profitable to sell it again after it was sold DRM free for everyone already.
Buying a licence for a period of time, on purpose, is no different then a one time payment.

99% of what they sell are still bought rights and licences.
What AAA games? Witcher series that literacy is owned by the same company to promote their site to make more profit out of other people's investment and work? Seriously, are you blind, dumb or both?

>>62086036
See
>>62086037
I gladly just explained that.

>Your response?
All of those are indie devs with not many options, some company that owns right to some game whose parent company died years ago and they themselves didn't invest in it.
So yeah, they sell. No surprise there, your point?

No, you imbecile. Nobody is forcing you to use the GPL you bozo.

>>62086059
>your point?
There are alternatives to DRM. You can jump up and down saying "b-but it doesn't count" all you want, but there are alternatives to DRM. There are even profitable alternatives to DRM.
For another example, see https://www.peppercarrot.com/
This man makes over $3.2k a month while his products are not only DRM-free, but completely free. Anyone can do whatever they want with it, even print copies and sell them, without paying him a penny.

There are alternatives to DRM.

>>62086037
>99% of what they sell are still bought rights and licences.

Well, faggot, maybe because that's how digital game stores works? Like Steam, you know.

What do you want, that they invest on they're own game?
They did, just as you said. The Witcher series. But of course, for you that's not a valid example too, right?

>Saying shit such as "I'm not glad he's dead, but I'm glad he's gone" right after Steve Jobs' death. What an asshole.

Reminder Steve jobs exploited kids during his entire life. Stallman was just too nice with what he said. Be lucky he didn't go deeper macfaggot.

So we'll hunt him. Because he can take it. Because he's not our hero. He's a silent autist, a watchful freetard.

It's time to face the facts, you are a political correct special snowflake.

Steve Jobs had AIDS.

Probably the only honest obituary that cancerous fucker ever received

Stallman is a evil Jew who has hampered progress of computer science by hundreds of years with his "free software"

Without evil Jew Stallman white race would be in Alpha Centauri by now.

I hate Jews, GPL, GNU, Emacs, Stallman and Jews.

Spotted the kike.

tell me how 90% of compsci advancements in compiler technology and artificial intelligence and operating systems and hardware just happened to be made before evil Jew Stallman and his Zionist agenda to degenerate humanity

True, Stallman has been absolutely essential in holding humanity back by homogenizing software and thus hardware landscape.

remember when computer manufacturers actually compted with hardware+software combos and had massive R&D departments? Amiga? Commodore? Acorn? Sun? GONE

"thanks" Stallman you fucking Zionist communist kike thanks

>sorry stallman for calling you a commie faggot
>commie

If anything, he's an extremist libertarian. From the same source:

>Una de las condiciones estándar que pone RMS (tiene un email ya preparado con todas esas condiciones) es que si se aloja en un hotel, éste no debía pedir DNI o pasaporte, ni a él ni a ningún otro huesped. Es su activismo contra el “control gubernamental” de las actividades privadas.

No governmental control on a commie state? Nope.

>>62081190
He's an autist.

Can anyone explain these pictures to me? Why would someone just need to take out a laptop and start computing in the middle no where? Is it like a photo-op or something?

>>62081190
he is the quintessential nerd
he is an awkward, ugly, white, bearded, old geezer that programs LISP in emacs
he has principles and very clear ideas, but he struggles communicating them to normal people
he just wanted the printer to do what he wanted

of course, nerds get bullied

All those things are dying because of the internet. I'm not saying DRM is a solution, but saying "we did it before, we can do it again!" is silly.
