*shrug*
>>54422110
But /g/ loves Gates and you can see people defending him because of his philantropy
>>54422123
However many people Gates helped in the third world, he fucked at least 10 times as many people in the first world.
He can suck my Debian

speak for yourself faggot
>>54422103
/g/ is filled with liblel kiddies with another tab opened to reddit.I am not at all surprised with the double thinking.
>>54422123
Well people aren't against his philanthropy, what people are against is his anti-competitive monopoly on computer OS, and his faggot move to shove win10 on people's throat gotta be the worst of them all.
Do I personally hate him? No. Do I hate his jewish companies? Yes
>>54422123
Gates hasn't done anything technology related lately. He's so out of touch with where the industry stands. Fuck Gates.
>/g/ hates socialism
It's just rightwing loudmouths being loud that gives this impression. Others aren't as interested in sharing their beliefs on the bloody technology board. Political compass threads of the past even suggest that the most common political inclination on /g/ is that of liberal socialism.
Since people are going to get on my case for that last sentence: no, I'm not saying there is a socialist consensus here. Oh, and if you're a rightwinger but not loud about it, that bit was obviously not directed at you.

Bill Gates isn't a crony capitalist, he's just a capitalist.

Free software isn't socialism. Under socialism, both the bourgeouisie and the proletariat can own free software, but only the proletariat can own the means of production.
>/g/ loves capitalism
>/g/ hates Jobs
/g/ hates Jobs, not because of the money he made, but because of the amount of bullshit and hypocrisy he spun, and his clearly defective attitude and personality.
>>54422103
>Thinking about a whole board as one person
>>54422588
There's a difference between actual capitalism and crony capitalism(corporatism)
>>54422767
Yes, and I acknowledged that distinction.
>>54422103
/g/ is a person
>>54422158

Nope, /g/ loves anime wallpapers.

I hatte them though
/g/ has been my fav board for a while and i switched from android to iphone a little over a year ago.
>>54422767
No there isn't
/g/ doesn't know anything about politics. It's painfully obvious.
>>54425167
You are not /g/
>>54425793
Well he's part of the /g/ borg, as am I. And I fucking hate animu too.
>>54422103
There are plenty of reasons to both love and hate each of those guys.
>Gates
Made PC gaymen a thing.
Nearly strangled the web in the cradle with IE6 and the company's monopoly abuse.
>Stallman
FOSS lays the groundwork for a lot of infrastructure in use today.
Not everybody is fond of viral licensing or working support. Stallman uses charisma as a dump stat.
>Jobs
Turns out some of the most iconic designs of every computer era he was involved.
Terrible human being and died because of his hippy beliefs. He is responsible for awfulness of modern platform lock-in.
>>54425888
>Made PC gaymen a thing.
PC gaming was "a thing" well before Windows ever existed.
>>54425917
Yeah, there were a shitton of DOS games. It didn't really hit stride as a platform until DirectX gave developers a standard platform. I didn't miss the days of mucking about with autoexec.bat, config.sys, and turning out bootdisks on a regular basis.
I only like Jobs, Torvald, and Musk. The other high profile tech fags are redundant
>/g/ loves Gates
>/g/ hates Jobs
Are you on drugs?
I honestly wish I didn't hate Apple back when jobs was around. Imagine trolling the fuck out of people here when the macbook air was revealed. That shit would have been magical.
>>54426086
Buy a 5k iMac. People will get upset at you for it.
>>54422176
Lol majority of /g/ aside from the neckbeard faggots know Stallmans a fake faggot
>>54426120
Well, I'd get upset at me too. I have no need for it. Just buying a macbook pro isngood enough for me
>>54422588
>Free software isn't socialism.
You're correct. Free software is not about politcal ideals in any way. Free software stands only for insisting the end users and their rights are not infringed upon.Stallman is very clear with this.His definition is absolute,but many people cannot grasp this.They themselves,in an effort to understand,often hold this definition up against political models as a means to attempt to define his ideals.This is wrong.All he is saying is "Give away your software or charge whatever you want,but exclude the end user from any sort of entrapment or inability to use the product however they want." It's really about honesty and such.Think of it as humanitarianism in it's most basic form.

>pic related
nice generalisations faggot
except theyre all wrong
Has /g/ turned to /b/ yet?
>Have a physical copy of something and lend it to friend.
>You're now a Socialist.
/g/ is not one person you fucking imbecile.
Seriously, do you even have an IQ above 70?

why the fuck do people care what their desktop wallpaper is? Who the fuck just sits down and stares at their desktop
>muh windows
>muh desktop is application launcher
Jesus, just learn how to use commands+hot keys and use the fucking quick search
The only place where wallpapers are actively seen during use is on mobile devices
>Americans want the "anti establishment" candidate
>The top picks: Donald Trump, a billionaire with billions more in real estate; Bernie Sanders, who has been active in politics since the 1970s; and Hillary Clinton, who has been a First Lady, senator, and Secretary of State
>>54426728
Get out of here with your logic!
edit: Thanks for the gold, kind stranger!
>>54422145
Gonna provide evidence to back that claim up?
>>54430571
Kys tripfag cancer.
>>54422103
A lot of people here make over a 100k per year so naturally they don't like the idea of socialism.
>>54430571
Aren't you that Hillary shill from the other day? I swear to God I want to put my fist in your mouth so bad.
>>54430803
that's hot
>>54423025
You're a naive dumbass. Sure it's important that people have the facilities to survive, but it's absolutely pointless if they don't have the facilities to live, i.e. freedom. As far as we know, Gates only wants to improve Africa so they can also suck his corporate cock
it's as if this website is made up of more than one person...
>>54433015
>compares free software to "the facilities to live"
I'm sure the people out there who are truly "living" are all only able to do so because they don't use proprietary software
/g/ is a bunch of contrarian manchildren
>socialism
>stallman
good b8 for everyone else
