Like I said, I use Linux, and all the tools that come with it, whoever makes them. I am sure that some of the software I use is made by bigger jerks than Stallman.
I don't object to the finished product. I object to the preaching from cult leaders.
I am not going to argue about something that does not exist.
Listen, you can follow Stallman off the cliff if you want. It is your life. To come along 7 years after Linux has been out and slap his obnoxious prefix on someone elses work is rude.
The GPL is already viral, but I can see that the other germs have infected you too.
If you keep repeating it long enough, you might actually believe Stallman. He is a neo-communist, egomanical glory horder.
A few days ago, several GNU heads almost admitted as much. It took some coaxing though. That was after a lot of "You don't understand.", "We know the truth", and other things that cults say.
The fact is that there is no such thing as GNU/Linux, no matter what your "leader" tells you.
GNU is a cult. They recruit the young and impressionable. They are mainly college students who can't afford to buy software, so they think GNU is great. Free, Free, Free.
Then the members of the cult follow blindly what RMS says. Evey Slashdot story is followed by the standard "RMS is right on" subject lines. I will follow RMS and listen to everything he says. Until he pushed the GNU crap on the Linux name, no one called it that. But the mindless ones, they don't care. What every Tricky Dick says must be.
Meanwhile, these same people laugh at ZDNet for buying into what Bill Gates says, without realizing that they are just as mindless as the drones on ZDNet with regards to Windows.
Then, the college students go out into the real world and get jobs (at closed source companies of course), and they are replaced by a new crop of GNU heads.
Where you live is at least as important as how much you make.
Silicon Valley is no place to have any sort of life. The cost of living is just too prohibitive, unless you are a CEO type. I think it is just trendy to say you live out there.
You Nevada gig sounds fantastic. I hope they don't start moving in on you next.

the mantra.
You cut and pasted that from gnu.org
At least if you are going to be brainwashed, change up the words.
He was.
He just won't listen to reason.
calm.

What flavor kool-aid did you get?
cult ramblings.
Linux is the operating system. GNU products make up a small percentage of the software in the distribution.
Pass the Kool-Aid.

because he likes to take credit for other people's work. That is my point.
Please pass the kool-aid.
it should be GNU/Unreal.
Unreal is just the engine, but is incomplete without GNU.

it should be the GNU/Wearable Computer Fashion Show.
While the products make up the operational part of the fashion show, without the GNU tools, it would be incomplete.
No :)
Repeat after me....
"GPL is good...GPL is good"
The cult meeting is now over. Kool-Aid is being served in the back.
they are a bunch of hyprocrites.
"Do as we say, not as we do."
And remember, their freedom is an Orwellian type of freedom.
Great...the further from the GPL, the better.
