He never said to buy better hardware. He said the code should no longer be formatted based upon what he believes to be a niche situation. People in this situation can, in fact, still edit code. You will get line wrapping. It's not optimal, but neither is editing 80 lines when you have 100 available.

But no, Linus is literally arguing that reasonable people cannot disagree because he's arguing that an 80-column limit isn't "reasonable." That's a bunch of bullshit.
