I wish we lived in a high trust world where passwords were unnecessary.
>>106978606It will be unfortunate and we'll lose a voice of reason, but nothing will change because nobody listens to him no matter how often he's right
No more GNU/Linux or GNU+Linux memes
He didn't really do anything. ripping off a program and making a 'free' version is the vibe coding of the 80s when this dude was with it

>I am the last survivor of a dead culture. And I don’t really belong in the world anymore. And in some ways, I feel like I ought to be dead. - Richard Stallman
nothing changes

>>106978761I love him so much bros
>>106978761Right in the fucking feels man. So depressing, I hope he realizes what a massive contribution he made to humanity. Sad that what he's saying is mostly true, minus the "only survivor" bit, I think there's a lot of us that feel exactly the same way, especially now that the corpos have managed to destroy and censor the Internet to an unrecognizable degree.
>>106978777That's grim
>>106978606rms is a singularity
>>106978675nigga i am logging into yo account
>>106978761>muh computer hacking was the best time of my life
>>106978987Why would you breach my trust like that?
>>106979002cuz it's free and i spent all my ebt on grape soda
>>106978606>What will happen once he dies?1. Total (((FAGMAN))) takeover2. Paid astroturfing campaigns against copyleft'd GPL projects and endless paid shilling for cuck licensed projects3. Weaponization of cuck licensed "open source" projects against its users (Minix -> Intel Management Engine style)4. Finally, proprietary nonfree dystopia. Your Microsoft Big Brother™ is watching you. You'll own nothing and you'll be happy.
>>106978606The end of free software.

>>106978606I'll be sad. One man stood for something. How many people do you know that can stand for anything outside their immediate self or family? Most people I know are selfish monkeys. No vision. They only care about their rights when they are already gone.
>>106978606nothing, he has no influence over anything
>>106978606almost everyone will grift his death
it will be like Dennis Ritchie died and the news covered it as "some highly respected nerd died and other nerds are sad about it I guess idk?" for 30 seconds then everyone moves on
There will be one less pedophile

>>106978894>minus the "only survivor" bit, I think there's a lot of us that feel exactly the same wayIt isn't just about "feelings" you daft cunt. It is a matter of having actual beliefs that you ardently adhere to. You most certainly use proprietary software and hardware every day of your life - probably every waking hour if we're honest. Stallman would not even visit a website with proprietary Javascript, and you're trying to compare idle bemoaners to him?If anything the culture he is talking about might not be that of openness and freedom, but about holding ideals - and ardently adhering to them.
>>106978606We both know what will really happen.
>>106979081Thank god we'll get nuked off the planet before that happens. I welcome WW3 if it means getting out of this proprietary hellzone.
One less pedophile in the FOSS space. On the other hand the FOSS space is full of pedos, gays and furries. At least the furries are mostly normal.
>>106978606GNU will become closed source
>>106978606>What will happen once he dies?Linux on desktop reaches 30% within two weeks.
