Another reason to love Linux
From a recent interview with Linus Torvalds, for whom the Linux OS is named:
"Linux Journal: If you had to fix one thing about the networked world, what would it be?
Linus: Nothing technical. But, I absolutely detest modern "social media" -- Twitter, Facebook, Instagram. It's a disease. It seems to encourage bad behavior..."
Amen!
"Add in anonymity, and it's just disgusting. When you don't even put your real name on your garbage (or the garbage you share or like), it really doesn't help. I'm actually one of those people who thinks that anonymity is overrated....."
One of the things I've always disliked about this forum is its social media aspects: The ranking system, new poster, freshman, etc. All these kudos ( likes ) flying around.
Here I was merrily interneting along, and then I upgraded to gen5, and immediately started having data usage problems, and I posted here about it. Been here off and on ever since. If it's a desease, I guess I've caught it. :>)>
If anybody interested, here's a link to some more of the interview:
