A lot of figures in FSF/GNU/OSS are just shitters in real life.

The email chain is basically just RMS going, "hey guys, it TECHNICALLY isn't rape because nobody said it was against her will!" ---- the biggest fedora play I've seen in a long-ass while

fucking libertarians

i fucking died at his commitment to his own brand in the email chain asking someone to send him the depo because he's not gonna use google drive and linking to "javascript-trap"

also i know they use the word "resignation" but it doesn't really sound like one

Stallman left his humanity long ago in the emacs and gcc code base.

"This literal child sex slave both can consent and was consenting" is a truly impressively bad take, even for libertarian compsci types.
Good riddance, and may the not-men he discouraged from the field with his past behavior be mourned.

i'm actually impressed the fsf made him resign as well. i didn't have much hope for the board given comments from some of the other members.


rms gone. linus attempting to actually grow as a human. computers... good?

Whoa, Jeffrey Epstein's scandal had way more repercussions than I could've thought. I just read about how much cover-up there was at MIT to make his involvment seem much smaller than it really was. I guess when you cut an apple tree the apples fall too.

the reason they are inforcing rules about fresh produce and plants is because of the plant deseases. and to make it simpler they just generalize the" no plant food" rule
