How does he make a living?
>>
>>51706352
he's a digital nomad, he doesn't need much. just wifi, some open source nutrients, and a fsf certified mattress.
>>
In 2001 he has won 830k USD (takeda award).
In 1990 he received a grant of 240k USD.

Considering his ascetic lifestyle (old busted thinkpad, emacs and an internet connection) and the fact that FSF receives donations I wouldn't say it's hard to live off what he already has.

He travels a lot tho but I'm fairly sure someone covers those expenses for him.
>>
People actually pay him good money to travel around and ramble about communist software.
>>
Looks can be deceiving. He's a millionaire.

>tfw the only reason the FSF exists is because Stallman is so Jewish that he demands all software be free.
>>
>>51706453
He can make all the money he wants as long as he keeps to promoting free software, proprietary software simply cannot be trusted.

He pretends to do work while staying in other peoples houses, using their internet, & eating their food
He occasionally is payed for giving the EXACT SAME SPEECH he has given for years
>>
>>51706532
You don't sell free software, you sell Free software.
:3
>>
>>51706594
He encourages selling free software even if you didn't make it.

Basically what he means is "if you can find an idiot that will pay you money for it, jew him"
>>
>>51706611
I found it a bit hypocritical that he uses other people's cellphones to make calls. Why doesn't he just get a burner or something?
>>
>>51706633
Nothing wrong with a few shekels for tech support. I'll install gentoo for you 40USD
>>
>>51706374
i don't think he uses wifi
>>
>>51706444
But he's pretty hedonistic with food, I think.

even though what you said is true, I kek'd at that summary

does stallman get laid? If not, what kind of prostitute does /g/ think he'd prefer?
>>
>>51706993
Stallman is a known practitioner of Thelema and engages in sex magick rituals with initiates in his local OTO chapter, he doesn't need prostitutes.
>>
>>51706993
>If not, what kind of prostitute does /g/ think he'd prefer?
Free and open source, of course.

>GNU is an acronym for “GNU’s Not Unix,” a reference to the fact that the popular Linux operating systems actually operate off of GNU.
What? that's not GNU has that name at all! It doesn't even make any sense, as it implies the name GNU was conceived after the kernel was made and after the full GNU/Linux operating system was already popular (and called just Linux)! The GNU project already had this name since birth, way before Linus even started his project. What retard wrote this shit?
