He doesn't own a mobile phone and he is proud of it. And he thinks virtualization is over-hyped. Find out what else we prize from Linux guru Linus Torvalds. "Linux has done what I wanted it to do for the last fifteen years, literally. So since very early on my motivation actually came from the outside: my motivation came from problems that other people see. I don't see the problems, my usage model is actually fairly simple and it's still the same development model that I tend to concentrate on. So I am actually motivated by other people's issues, and sometimes they make me go 'those people are just crazy, that's just insane', but sometimes the crazy people have some of the most interesting problems too."

Ain't that the truth. That's why he is generally ignored and/or voted down because of his infantile opinions and slender grasp of English. Watch him challenge me now to converse in his native language or some other language that he "knows" (as these pricks always do)
The difference is, I know my Spanish/French sucks so I will not try and write coherent arguments in it, because I will just be showing myself up and will fail to get my point across adequately.
Moulinneuf doesn't get this.

Chicken Blood ,
I can't be infantile if you don't understand any of the word I wrote. That comment of your's is what's infantile and is completely devoid of any sense.
Technically I am voted up more frequently then down. But then I got , infantile people like you , who somehow got modding point , who instead of opposing what I said , just press the little down modding button and try and portray me as something I am not. I probably also got my own **special** FAN club.
I am coherent and make sense and I am short on details , but that's because your suppose to know the subject discussed by the article in order to be a valid and worthwile participant.
I feel pity and sorry for people like you , who think that behing popular and follow the mass is somehow leading to the truth and that are afraid to offer there opinion because it might hurt the feeling of other's who are just like you , who's simple pleasure in life is pressing the modding button to feel that they contributed something worthwile to the forum.
No , sorry , I wont ask you to write or understand another language , you already got enough trouble with simple english.
