    Linux is going to shit when this man dies. He has such a stringent quality requirement that he’s quite possibly the only reason Linux is the behemoth king that it is today. Humans are lazy, unqualified, and the fact that this man tells it like it is so often, and so brashly is why I will continue to use Linux; because I can trust that this guy keeps all the garbage out.
