What will happen when he's gone?
>>
We will have no freedom.

>>55254578
Explain.

>what will happen when a commie jew dies
A less shitty world i'm sure.

>>55254541
nothing, he has done nothing important

>>55254541
Hopefully, his followers follow.

>>55254541
we all kill ourselves

We replace his filthy face in the sticky with a true gentooman: Torvalds. His personality is a better fit for this place anyways.

Leadership of the free software movement will decentralize. I find to this compatible with the goals of the movement.

>>55254541
Jesus will stop by every day to feed his cat and water his plants.
>>
>>55254541
I will be glad.

>>55254541
I will take his place

The Earth will be about 2 tonnes lighter

gentoo
and lynx as a web browser

He'll come back three days later in form of a spiritual new kernel.
>>
>>55254541
GNU/Linux becomes an even bigger joke than it is now.
>>
>>55256739
He's fine now, but he won't live forever.

Microsoft will opensource Windows as a sign of respect

>>55254541
We'll start calling it Linux again.

He'll always be remembered for his contribution. Without him, there probably wouldn't even be open source software and you probably wouldn't get any software for free. He's changed the lives of millions of people in developing countries who cannot afford to pay for Windows licenses. In my opinion, this man has given away more than Bill Gates, by not charging anything to run software. Such altruism is rarely seen these days.
>>
He'll stop giving worthless talks to worthless university students to waste university funds.
He'll stop writing autistic blog posts where he claims ownership of others' work.
Retards will stop saying shit like "The GPL is more free than the MIT license because it restricts your freedom more!"
>>
>>55254701
Torvalds isn't any better. Hes an engineer, not a free as in freedom figurehead. /g/ may love it when he tells people to fuck off and that they're stupid and wrong, but if it doesn't make FOSS look any better

The Free Software movement will hopefully get someone who isn't the worst thing to happen to the Free Software movement.

GNU's Not Unimportant

...I'll show myself out, thanks.

>>55256784

Trisquel, and he does pretty much everything through Emacs.
>>
Literally nothing.

As if this mans very existance somehow keeps us "secure" and "safe". Nothing will happen. There will be one less human on this planet for a split second until some poor ass ignorant family pops out another dozen to take his place. Maybe some triggered /g/tards will commit group suicide.

There are thousands of post-stallmans. They learn, modify, advance and spread again, what rms said; That is exactly what rms want: freedom to be with and be driven by community. rms will pass away someday. However, his great philosophy will remain, keep progressing, and improve our world.
