From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I don't know what It was expecting but it wasn't quite that. I was initially going to make a crass joke but decided to read it before.. now I don't want to make the joke.

Yeah, while I didn't want to make a joke, I'll have to let that sink in for a while.

Glad I saw your comment.

His writing comes off very strange. Somewhat egotistical and at the same time radically apologetic. I've never felt so uncomfortable reading a "technical" writing.

To me, it sounds like a man who does not understand social interactions trying to emulate how he should act, as he's been taught in therapy for the past however many years in prison. He will never come off as normal because he is attempting to do something that his brain isn't capable of. It seems very in line with my impression of his past interactions online.

I hope someone sent him those papers
