The Stallman Factor

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the happy-hacking-and-hostile-naming-conventions dept.

An anonymous reader sent us linkage to a LinuxWorld story about Stallman's Position in the Linux World. Talks a lot about RMS's tacticts for getting his acronym included with the kernel's name. This has been a long-running debate, but personally I just don't care. I respect the GNU Project's involvement. But I'm not gonna spit out extra syllables and keystrokes just to appease anyone.

"""""""""x"xxxxx """""""""x"xxxxx """"""""@""xxxxx """""""x"x"xxxxx """""""""xxxxxxx To the west by southwest, several miles away, you smell a wicked stench rising from a hole in the ground. You pass through a swirling cloud of vapor. A baenlyr bites you. You feel burning poison in your blood and suffer. Thou must find the Jade monkey before the next full moon in order to cast that spell. YOu chant out the arcane words and are drained of 50 mana. A bright aura envelops your body, healing your wounds. NOTICE: You are leaving a PLAYER KILLLING AREA.

    Gentlemen (and I'm really reaching here), the solution is simple. Drop kick the hack job Linux thing and take up on the mantel of FreeBSD.
