To all sarcastic commenters:
Hey, dudes: he built a bunch of cool and famous software, some of which you are using without paying a dime for, and even making money with.
He has no blog. Can't be found on Facebook. Apparently doesn't even like surfing web. But there is a wiki page about him and he gets recognized while walking down the street.
His name is Richard Stallman. What is YOUR name? What have YOU built?
- run4yourlives 19y agoAhh the cult of celebrity. No longer confined to the big screen!
- trajan 19y agoWhat, he can't be brilliant and famous while also being a weirdo? This is like Daniel Day-Lewis' cobbler stint.
- gojomo 19y agoIndeed! And I think Stallman comes off OK in the full referenced OpenBSD-related thread, too. He's precise and peculiar, but calm and consistent, while the people responding to him get quite pissy.
- mwerty 19y agoThat's still an ad hominem.
