The State of the Union of FOSS
,----[ Quote ]
| Ladies and Gentlemen, I stand before you and my fellow countrymen and
| say to you the state of the union of FOSS is good. To be sure, there
| are challenges ahead, and obstacles to overcome, but the inexorable
| tide of history is on our side. We have passed the worst. For first
| they ignored us, then they laughed at and derided us, but now they
| must fight us, and in the end, we will win.
|
| For the purveyors of proprietary software do not believe in freedom.
| They do not want to unleash the potential of computing power for the
| benefit of all mankind, so that we can harness it, and apply it to
| raise the quality of life for all humanity worldwide. No, they want
| you tied to their nipples, addicted to software you mostly don't
| need, and can't change, which you must wait in anticipation for
| their next upgrade, for the next fix to fix, which never fulfills
| you like that first naive exhilarating hit.
