As a software engineer with over 20 years experience, I believe that Linux geeks are almost as bad as liberals.
They talk about freedom and ‘free software for everyone’ while they steal from their employers and work on their pet linux project while being paid on company time.
Liars and Hypocrties can be found all over the place in the Linux world.
And I DO KNOW what I am talking about.
I program software for a living. I acknowlege that Linux is technically superior to windows- it is the linux ZEALOTS that give Linux and ‘open source’ a bad name.
I have seen that as well. Linux is a great OS, and I admire Linus Torvalds for starting the Linux project. But a lot of Linux geeks are extremely selfish and self-centered. They live in a very small world.
Much of the serious work on the Linux kernel and other related projects like KDE, are in fact funded by corporate sponsors and/or universities. So, no, I don’t believe you know what you’re talking about.
