You name drop about Linus and RMS on your BN all the time, of course no
proof is ever given, but let's assume they are in contact with you....

A BIG assumption BTW....

So what do you say when Linus in effect calls you an asshole?

MS don't give a rats arse about OSS in general since Linux is known to
fail on the desktop where average consumers are seen. OSS that works on
both platforms tends to benefit Windows since it stops people "needing"
to move to Linux. The counter argument is, of course, that OSS which
runs on both means that people CAN move to Linux.

I bet that Linus has sent Schestowitz several emails - - asking him to shut
up and go away because he's making a mockery out of Linux users.

It's not the first or last time that some has called him this.

Yea.

Many of the core Linux developers and advocates really do wish Schestowitz
would take up another hobby, like stamp collecting or something.

It's probably his middle name.

Something like playing with dynamite, juggling chainsaws or charming
poisonous snakes would be great hobbies for Schestowitz to take up.

Who would they be, and how many compared to the total number of "core
developers", and how are -you- defining "core developers"?

... and your obsession with Roy is still showing.

He could take up finding free clip art that is under "free to use, but
you must attribute" licenses, and using it without attribution. Oh wait,
he's already doing that one.

Is Roy Schestowitz up to his old tricks again?

IOW using artwork without either giving the author credit or just plain
using copyrighted material without permission?

He never learns, does he?
