Hi /g/
As you know, linux was started by Andrew Tatenbaulm (he had no choice in this), prepared initially by Linus Torvalds, and then immediatly continued by Hackers who Linus begged help from (which is why it's GPL: they wouldn't help him without that license change).

Though Hackers were there from the begining,
Lately Linux has all been paid programers.
And no hackers.

So somehow we went from All hackers + linus + Andrew Tatenbaulm (thus 99.998% hackers)
(0.002 non hackers)
1990

To
0 percent hackers
2026

How did we get here?

RMS wants quotes and attributions to the blatant dissing of hackers and hobbiests that has occured more recently through the years by the paid programmers who now do all of Linux.

I remeber the one where the corporate-programmer deleted the first Journaling File system (which was STILL working at the time of deletion) from the Linux code and then laughingly wrote "now 100kb of space is freed for WALLPAPERS!!!" (hahhahahahaha)

Implying that said code, from the start, was worth less than a part of a multi-coloured wallpaper.

Spitting on those that donated that code.

That's one I can remeber but I don't know where it is on the LKML.
There are others where hackers are said to be crap programmers and unworthy of linux kernel programming etc.

I cannot find any on google.
But RMS wants all the quotes.
I know /not personal army/
But this has been a big change and it should be documented: to see how we got from a
1) Totally free, as in speech, and everything, hobby project for and by hackers
to
2) Code of Conduct Speech controled crap project ripping out all the hard-fought victories of the previous hacker era: Seeing it as a "Hacker Error" (hahahhahahahahaha) : to be rectified, rewritten, and rustified. Many architectures have allready been removed.

This is RMS for hyper based racists who hate anime (tranime) and Linux (loonix (trannix)) and tranny software (open source)


You people are fukin’ BASED

Linus recently told everyone, in a mocking tone:
that if they do not like AI code, and do not like Rust: fork off: you are not welcomed in linux.

He didn't mean seriously to fork: he knows that one person cannot meaningfully accomplish this: he himself begged hackers to help him on day one release 0.01.

He means it mockingly.
This adds to his list of undesirables barred from contributing to linux.
1) Covid Vaccine Deniers
2) Fucking Russians
3) no-life coders in their basements such as russians
4) Hackers in general.
5) Mysoginists "please take me off your woman hating mailing list" --Linus some years ago
6) Murderers of Russian women (Hans Reiser: code was removed for this: replaced with wallpapers)

etc

Why do these people: who relied on
1) Andrew Tatenbaulm not suing them
and
2) Tons of hackers doing the code

Get to take it away, ban everyone via speech codes (code of conduct): and take their fucking thing they made for themselves forever?

All the while ripping anything good about it down?
Why?

You had 30 years to figure out Linus Torvalds was a fat spiteful prick and never gave a fuck about free software

Terry Davis: hacking is for niggers. Reverse engineering and programming without documentation? Yeah that's for niggers.

I'm a free software fan and i indeed look like this

>You had 30 years to figure out Linus Torvalds was a fat spiteful prick and never gave a fuck about free software

Fun fact: no one would help him before he was asked to change the license to GPL.
He's probably pissed off to this day that people didn't work for him for absolutely free.

He's cashing in now.
And abolishing what the guys actually worked towards.

RMS said Torvalds treated him badly.
So whatever Torvalds said: RMS has remebered it 36 years hence.
