"in fact, after final Ion3 is released, I'm not going to write a line of so-called "free software"; so poor has been the treatment of the FOSS herd (both of my code, and of the good old *nix), that I'm not going to do them any services any more."
"FOSS shit has been on a constant downward slide ever since I started using it back in '95-'96, especially after all sorts of world domination plans, like Gnome, were announced. Windows, OTOH, has improved, although Vista has a small degradation again: you also can't easily disable the blurry fonts completely, just like Linux that requires writing loads of XML shit to do so. Maybe they've employed a few representative specimens of the FOSS herd -- a bunch of teenagers wanking to buzzwords, instead of pr0n. No wonder they can't tell a blurry font from a crisp one."
"...[Debian Etch] which I will be abandoning for either FreeBSD or Windows XP when I get a new box maybe in a few years, as Linux keeps turning into a pile of steaming shit -- unfortunately dragging *BSD down with it, but at least they don't have udev or the scsi-mapping insanity."
"[the patch is] the support of utter and total crap, that is part of the degradation of *nix: Xft and fontconfig."
"Presently, it is less work to switch to Windows than configure fontconfig. And even if Gnome or some other wimpshit provides a way to configure it, I rather use Windows than Gnome -- software that played a great part in destroying something that could've been good."
"And that is the way things are heading in Linux: either you have to waste a lot of time learning things, or you have to succumb into being a WIMPshit idiot user. I want neither."
