Transcript of Talk with Richard Stallman
An anonymous reader writes "This is the transcript of the talk with Richard Stallman, the father of GNU in the background of the 4th International GPLv3 Conference being held at Bangalore where RMS is a prominent delegate. He answers questions related to GPLv3, DRM and a couple of other queries."
Poppycock!

I will never, ever forget the way I felt when I first heard Lincoln's immortal words: "Be excellent to one another, and party ON, dudes!"

Can I have a moment, please?
These stories are free but worth money.
Richard Stallman is, in my humble opinion, A HERO and even a true american patriot.

He has been protesting evil surveillance technology such as RFID for years. And there are few other people who have contributed more to free software and humanity in general as he has.
Take a look at his past speches: http://www.fsf.org/events/past-rms-speeches.html?
And remember his protest at the UN Summit: http://www.secureidnews.com/weblog/2005/11/21/ric
(as you may or may not be aware, the UN are evil. They openly admit they want the UN to be a one-world government and that they want to destroy the sovereignty of any existing nation. Richard Stallman is a hero for protesting against UN evil)

Now, this is something I do not get: are Linus, Richard Stallman some kind of Gods ?
Everytime they just say something, it appears as if it was God in person speaking...
No matter what they did (I mean: how many people wrote their own kernel ? be it Un*x or not), I don't understand why they always appear as Gods...
O Lord Stallman, forgive this unbeliever for his foolish words of blasphemy. We, your true believers, will shun him and send him out from our fold. Once he could visit Slashdot and bask in the glory of (transcripts of) your wisdom, but now he will live on the streets and fight over garbage with alleycats.

2. You're locked in a room with Richard Stallman and Bill Gates and have only a gun with two bullets in it (which you normally secrete on your person in case you ever get locked in a room with Richard Stallman, Bill Gates, etc). They both clear their throats to speak. What do you do?
A. Shoot Bill, hoping he hasn't got a tablet device (or the XP Security Vulnerability notes) crammed up his blazer
B. Shoot Richard, hoping he hasn't got the notes for his speech in front of his heart
C. Shoot Richard AND Bill and take your chances
D. Shoot yourself, twice, for getting into such a contrived situation
God IS an operating system.
Because there's no gnu-linux.slashdot.org?

I could argue that the "corporate overlords" are exploited far more than employees.
Heh, go right ahead. I could use a good laugh.
People kept refering to me as a crank, so I looked it up, it's a useful tool for starting revolutions
