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.

>Dear OP,
You might as well phrase this as
"Anyone else giving up on thinking?"

Using Windows and not GNU just proclaims your commitment to technological illiteracy.

If you can't program or use a computer as a tool then you are illiterate. Coding is the new literacy and GNU is the preferred toolkit and OS for the literate.

This is why u faggots need to learn how to separate people from ideas. Unfortunately this requires an iq over 100. Focus on what is being said, not who is talking. RMS's ideas are what should be debated, not him the person or his personal political beliefs. Debate Bernie's issues not Bernie the person. Fuck this gay earth.

Yes, I was considering it.

But no, won't do it.

My laptop running 8.1 magically stopped running without problems. I cannot change the wallpaper anymore and the system settings cannot be accessed anymore.

I did not download any virus as I really know how to manage not to do so, e.g. don't pirate etc.
It was the Windows Update that broke it.

Stuck with that piece of shit Apple makes.

You should probably thank them for defending your freedoms. When companies can't get something BSD licensed (100% free work) they try to take it by force and because of that, strong lawyers are NEEDED. Also programmers are being compensated in code and cash so you are wrong.
