Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

("runk" and "GNU/Scrotum" are right out)
GNU/Scrotum is a great name for a lemmy fork, but Richard’s copyright lawyers would probably sue me and the settlement terms would involve him eating his foot skin on my couch and leeching off of my wifi from his 2004 laptop for 12-24 months
spider plants are canonical
Name suggestion: Spider Plant Greenhouse
I do like this one
was pretty surprising when the sensible people took over at OSI and FSF got worse and worse
he’ll probably draw a significant amount of power from the fact that some of the walls in my house contain GNU utilities running on small Linux systems
Richard’s 2004 laptop runs FreeDOS but he find/replaced all instances of “FreeDOS” in the code to “GNU/Hurd”
I heard if you make minor modifications to those but then don't publish source (along with branding them and dropping license files) then he can take 20d6 psychic damage
Are you sure he limits it to his foot skin?
Play your cards right and you could put him to work like one of those fish that eat dead skin off feet as part of a pedicure.
Apropos of nothing, does Stallman still request access to a parrot? It'd be funny to find him a place to stay with a person whose parrot is trained to talk shit about Stallman. "KWOK! SHUT UP ABOUT HURD!"
runk sounds it would be the name of a rust variant of troff
Nah it’s masturbation in Swedish.
More specifically, "en runk" is analogous to "a wank", but it's not idiomatic.
wanking = "att runka"
I wanked = "jag runkade"
I had a wank = "jag tog en runk", non-idiomatic. You'd say "jag runkade". If you want to use a noun, "jag drog en tralla".
so 100% in the tradition of the area of software that thought a good name for its photoshop clone would be "gimp"
fascinating, thanks for mentioning :)
