Does anyone still have that retarded picture of me with RMS? He's probably 5'9-5'10 as he was a little shorter than me. Smelled better than you would expect

ESR is 6'9" tall, 420 lbs and could easily crush stymie's skull with a single biceps curl

When I was at HOPE XI, I noticed he had many fanbois, but he couldn't get his laptop to connect to the project because of free software and I can't really remember what he said, there was quite a bit of rambling.

He's probably 5'9-5'10 as he was a little shorter than me. he literally got freaked out about taking pictures when i saw him and only took ones with people objectively nerdier than him thanks for ruining it for the rest of us handsome computer men (also i took pictures as he lectured and lavished on a table so)

you know whats sad about ESR, aside from being a libertarian and afraid of the blacks, it's the way he's arrested his own programming skills by refusing to work ~at all~ for decades in the setting where programming skills are developed, ie the corporate setting. thats how he ends up thinking that upgrading int flags to C99 bools in some random project makes him a thought leader. probably couldn't get a job now if he wanted one and wouldn't accept the kind of junior level positions for which he'd be suited

esr is a lying racist sack of poo poo who could barely program 30 years ago. his entire "career" has been nothing but hijacking dead projects nobody gave a poo poo about, making minor changes, then telling everyone how important he was

his main contributions are as a writer. as a nerd bullshit “historian” he got to undeservedly elevate himself among people who actually matter. right place and time, some kinda hanger on groupie who lucked out and got buzz and profit from his associations

I recommend upgrading to an SSD as soon as possible. They vastly improve consumer desktop performance and are well worth the extra money.

Salt Fish posted:Wait who is ESR and why am I defending them? The Internet was built by people like me. We're still out there, patiently building things and fixing bugs and putting in our time to make sure your world keeps working. We're mostly volunteers, because there is no way to wrap a business model around the most essential services. We do what we do for love, and because software is our art - and because, in the Internet-dependent 21st century, we know civilization would be lost without us just as surely as if the roads and sewers and power grid stopped working. Though I'm a techie, I'm in a situation similar to a fine artist because the market has not figured out how to value and reward the work I feel called to do. Unlike most artists, it wouldn't be difficult for me to get a well-paid job - but then I'd have to work on what an employer wants, rather than what the world actually needs. Emphasis added to show how the hustle works

Hoo boy I was there in 2006 when the whole Seattle east side power grid got blown over and wasn’t restored for weeks, thank goodness for “people like esr” who selflessly volunteered to repair it from their man caves or the spiky hairs would have carried me into slavery

He wrote a guidebook for the Roguelike game NetHack.[3] In the 1990s, he edited and updated the Jargon File, currently in print as The New Hacker's Dictionary.[4] How are people saying he hasn't accomplished anything??
