No public talks from #RMS in nearly 3 months now. https://stallman.org/talks.html

#RMS #FSF #Linux

It seems like #OSI may want to work diplomatically with the #freesw community now. I speak with their new chief. The attacks on #RMS last March were the opposite of that. But Nicholson has left and they wish to change direction.

"If your goal is to be informed, you don't need to dwell on the crisis for hours every day. Not even one hour a day. Getting your news in this inefficient matter will waste a lot of time — and worse." #covid19 #rms https://stallman.org/articles/dont-watch-covid-tv.html

Alexandre Oliva's Open Letter on Richard Stallman

The person whom many consider to be the 'heir' of RMS responds to common accusations, which are sadly not based on actual facts

No, #Pepsi , you cannot 'own' plants and maybe #RMS should quit treating you as a valid alternative to Coke https://www.managingip.com/article/b1vwbmhdr7qm6k/pepsi-plant-revocation-made-for-lax-prosecution-not-public-interest #india #monopoly http://techrights.org/2020/05/15/gmo-and-epo-decision/ see http://techrights.org/2020/05/15/gmo-and-epo-decision/

Pepsi plant revocation made for lax prosecution not public interest

Counsel share their views on the revocation of PepsiCo’s potato variety used in Lay’s chips, including what the edict might mean for foreign innovators in India

(and yes, I don't think #rms shilling #pepsi is helping his message)

#IRS data: #EFF Total Revenue 2018: $15,913,065; Total Revenue 2019: $14,232,158. 2020: $12,212,821. So attacking #freesw and #rms (and ousting your founder, too!) hasn't worked well, has it, @eff ?

#RMS on #torture of #assange ..."They are worthless, because they rule out only a few special kinds of torture. Torture and brainwashing are standard practice in US prisons." https://stallman.org/archives//2021-sep-dec.html#2_December_2021_(Assange_and_US_Torture)

#RMS will loooove this headline from #redhat .... "open source"... "ecosystem".... "CLOWN" https://enterprisersproject.com/article/2021/11/when-open-source-ecosystem-thrives-cloud-it-leader-insights

When the open source ecosystem thrives in the cloud: IT leader insights

Open source and cloud do not compete: Much of today's innovation in cloud comes from ongoing efforts in the open source community. Here's what to know as cloud growth continues.

#RMS isn't perfect. Far from it. But those who attack him are a million times worse, and their reasons are disingenuous.

#ibm likes to "Collaborate with partners" like #microsoft while attacking software suppliers like the #fsf https://developer.ibm.com/blogs/a-year-of-collaboration-2020-2021-ibm-developer-partnership-program/ #gnu #rms

#RMS still being brainwashed by #billgates -bribed 'news' site, but at least he realises the #patent mess associated with it (who profits? Gates and friends): "doesn't make up for the developed world's insistence on maintaining a monopoly that stops India and Brazil from doing this." https://stallman.org/archives//2021-sep-dec.html#19_November_2021_(Us_covid_vaccine_manufacturing)

A carefully-checked assessment of an overlooked aspect surrounding the 'cancel mob', which incites and brainwashes people based on lies; there's an attempt to control channels of communication (e.g. Open and Free Technology Community and Freenode)...

Richard Stallman and the free software movement

Richard Stallman is something of a legend in the global software community. In 1983, he created the free software movement, through which highly trained and often highly paid professionals give their time to producing software for the public good....

Did #ibm and #microsoft pay #zdnet for #libel against #rms by the number of articles or by the number of hits the libel gets? ;-p
