I don't see how quitting a prestigious job you don't like to have a job
you like is a sacrifice.

Again, nothing new: I already know it and you know only one word to

Working on GNU is NOT a job; it is an avocation.  That is the tremendous
sacrifice made by Dr. Richard M. Stallman.

I know, as an American he eats shit and that's not expensive, but I'm
sure he needs a little bit more to be able to live.

Stallman created GNU for the betterment of mankind.

I'm not speaking about that. He did great things in the past, I don't
deny it. But doing something good is not the same thing as making a
sacrifice.

If he knew that lazy freeloaders like you would take advantage of his
work he may have had second thoughts.

If that can help you, I'm not using Emacs.

Now get back to your distro which you cannot control nor understand.

Don't change the subject you start even if you neither understand nor
control it.
