I came across an interesting essay of RMS' on "biopiracy" that is worth considering.

Darl? I dont know if you've seen the pictures but it looks a lot more like another figure I know of...

Another good comparison: Before and after.

See the website of this group at http://www.wsis-pct.org/

The Working Group is holding a workshop "Free Software, Free Society" with a group of top speakers, including Richard Stallman, founder of the GNU Project, and Lawrence Lessig.

It was the 11 commandments, but then Saint iGNUtious decreed that it be called the 10 GNU/Commandments and the Lord had a Mighty Rage and sent pestilence and Darl "smoking up makes me feel good" McBride to dwell upon the earth and keep the lawyers employed.

Before bashing RMS for his "anti-BSD" stand, please please do some research. His personal website was hosted in FreeBSD and he was perfectly happy with it. He never bothered to change it in to GPLed one becuase of the BSD license. Accrding to him ,
... I decided for ethical reasons that the site had to be running a free software operating system, and that it must not put any ads onto my pages. I was prepared to pay for the service, but preferred to avoid the expense if possible. A friend was in a position to sponsor my usage of the site that his company used. That site runs FreeBSD, which is a free system. So I chose that site....

This sounds like another Stallman rant. See this page for more BS like this . . .

That RMS warned us about when he talked about GNU.
Look here and here.

Or maybe a priest of the Church of EMACS

very practical and a great way to pollute your system with proprietary crap. In other words it's great for open source advocates and evil for free software advocates (myself included).

If the 1% of proprietary crap on your system makes it usable, with the option being a 100% proprietary environment, I'm all for the little bit of proprietary crap. If proprietary stuff brings more users, more and better Free Software will be developed.

In other words you are in the open source camp (see OSI) -- pragmatical and practical imperatives, in the oposition to purely ideological and political ones of free software movement (see FSF). This is exactly what I was talking about.

As for making the system "usable" I have really no idea how having pure free software system (in The Church of Emacs sense) renders it somhow "unusable." I don't need Windows drivers, since I don't buy crappy hardware without support in my kernel. I don't need win32 codecs for MPlayer, since I don't pirate movies. I don't need patent-violating MP3 players since I don't pirate music, which means I can have all of my CDs ripped to superior in every way Xiph Ogg Vorbis format.

I also don't care about more users -- only about more developers and with my Debian those are completely orthogonal (I don't use commercial GNU distroes, with which I admit that the user base is indeed important).

RMS wrote about something similar last year.

Now, if you excuse me, I'll have to go buy a copy of Catcher in the rye...

There is no system but GNU, and Linux is one of its kernels.

Right now Richard Stallman is the first link in a Google search for RMS, that's going to take time and effort for Microsoft to change

But Microsoft are trying to make people not use Google, but rahter user their own search engine, which does not show Stallman's homepage within the first 15 hits when searching for RMS. Anyway still Google is used by more people, so everybody should help protecting Stallman's name there. RMS might be a zealot, but I still like Stallman more than Microsoft. So how can you help RMS? I think the best way to help is to provide links to www.stallman.org in as many locations as possible. And prefferably use RMS as link text. The parent comment did a good start, and I will continue by making every instance of the word RMS in my comment a link to www.stallman.org.

Right now Richard Stallman is the first link in a Google search for RMS, that's going to take time and effort for Microsoft to change, and any astroturfing attempt on Microsoft's part would probably be met by a grassroots effort to keep Stallman at the top.

RMS himself, on the other hand, doesn't need to make much effort at all to take advantage of the situation. It would be easy for him to tack a short rant about DRM, TCPA, "Trusted computing", and all the other current buzzwords onto the top of the political "action items" on his home page, so that even more mainstream people looking for information on MS/RMS are directed to GNU/RMS instead. It would also be easy to make sure that his essay The Right to Read, which looked like a paranoid rant in 1997 and looks like a prescient description of DRM policies today, gets read by many of the MS/RMS websearchers who hit his site "by mistake".

I hope this isn't a coincidence; I hope some Microsoft exec intentionally chose "RMS" as a snide little poke at Stallman - that would make it sweeter when it backfired.

I call bullshit. You need to go RTFWebsite

ESR has already stated how he feels about being the guidon holder for open source.

1. Take my job, please.

2. Understand my job, please.

Further, if you can find someone who will do all of that, and perhaps more, you need to send him an e-mail, because he wants to know about it. Why not use this as a starting point when you're looking.

As for what ESR has done for the Open Source Community-at-large, ponder this, batman: You need the idealists, the pragmatists, and yes, even the more wild. Why? Because the community they're speaking in the name of, and the communities they're speaking to are just as diverse. It will be these men, and the relevant foundations that write the amici curiae in support of Linux, the GPL, or Open Source in general, when the time is necessary.

• in August I got an old PC, Celeron on a ABIT M/B; the Celeron is a PPGA, and is mounted on a ZIF which is itself soldered on a small board, called SlotKET, that is then insterted in the motherboard's SLOT1; the whole thing is too small for the PentiumIII retention system, and it wobbles under the weight of a massive heatsink. Since the heatsink was quite dusty, and I did not dare to detach the heatsink, I took off the whole SlotKET and washed the heatsink under tap water. Then I mounted the whole hw in a self-made case, and did some tests using Knoppix. When two days later I turned it on again, it did not boot.
  It took 3 days, and a borrowed PentiumIII, to understand that the problem was in the CPU; so I decided to brute-force it: I took off the hooks, only to realize that the heatsink was glued to the CPU (by them *** using some two-face-glue-tape, instead of paste); so I insterted a flat skrewdriver between the heatsink and the CPU, and applied quite some force: I heard a noise as of velcro, and saw that I had actually managed to pull the CPU from the ZIF (without releasing the lever), so I had to tore apart the last pins by hand. Then I really insterted the skrewdriver between the heatsink and the CPU, and managed to detach it. I sprayed abundant contact cleaner everywhere, and mounted it back on. It now works.
• Since ATX brought soft-off to the world, I have always prominently forgotten to use the back power switch (thinking "if it is noiseless, it must be off"), and I have plugged/unplugged components, while a green led was brightly and suspiciously looking at me from the M/B
• this week I helped my father to install a new 80GB drive; since the BIOS hanged on it, I decided to flash a new one; I downloaded it and put it in the floppy, but the aflash.exe utility reported a wrong checksum: I had forgotten to unzip it, and was trying to flash the bios1003a.zip file (instead of the bios1003a.awd that is inside it)
• static discharge? what is it? (seems that I was spared because: I live in a very humid place, with no carpets; and I never remember to turn off main power, let alone unplugging the cord; moreover, when I open a PC, I always sweat as a fountain, and, by reading above, you know why)
