It would be funny if rms didn't actually spend much time at a computer anymore, while maintaining a Free Software purist image. (I have no idea if that's reality, it's just an amusing thought)
- housemusicfan 3y agoIt's pretty close to reality. Here's a video where he explains that he's "never installed ganoo-slash-linocks" or learned how, because he can always ask the IT department to do it for him. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=umQL37AC_YM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=umQL37AC_YM In a way, he's absolutely right, and why Apple and Microsoft have gone to great lengths to make installing an OS as easy as possible, something the OSS community misfired on for years, almost as a bizarre badge of pride. The average person shouldn't have to know how to take a car apart in order to drive it. OpenBSD is the absolute worst at this, especially its disk partitioning obstacle course.
