Its not socialism if it is voluntary Why can't socialists understand this?

How does a programmer get PAID in the FREE SOFTWARE environment?

Isn't the label - Linux- a combination of Linus OS with GNU (GNU is not uniX)?

I remember when Minix came out, I bought a copy. Now am running Linux Mint.

48:50 I always remembered the guy sleeping in the office for some reason

I watched this documentary in the early 2000s, and the part at 5:05 caught my attention from the very first time I watched it. I have been influenced by what Linus said ever since, as It made me realise that, I too prefer email, and written, delayed communication in general, where I have some time to think of the answer before replying. Even with this very message; I wrote it, left it, thought about it a bit more, came back, altered it a bit, and then sent it. This thought process and approach is the direct result of what Linus said at 5:05. It is interesting how something relatively minor you may say can influence someone's whole communication style somewhere in the world.

Polish subtitles don't have Finish language lines. It can be easy fixed if someone translate English to Polish lines.

It's criminal how there is no music score.

Lets face it Gill Bates and Sicromoft will eventually fade into obscurity.

Great job with the upscaling of the resolution, now i can stream it on my 42" screen

I'm autistic and I like this subject but I can't watch this video, it's unwatchable due to the background music, the "static" pops like morse code make this unbearable to me. Whoever chose that didn't pick the best background music.

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 as a Linux distribution (distro), which includes the 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 and recommends the name "GNU/Linux" to emphasize the use and importance of GNU software in many distributions, causing some controversy.

Nice Linux

Ah, there it is: 30:37

I love the food recipe analogy.

I love the food recipe analogy.

I like the fact that a documentary about free software is shared freely on the internet :)

I don’t see how Linux is socialist. In what way does a centralized government control its means of production? I’m a hardcore right winger, a budding (ethical) hacker and an avid Linux user. I just don’t see the socialism angle to it. Just because you’re giving something away for free, doesn’t make you a communist or socialist. Those are systems of government in which there are no private industries. Not because the people decided to just do things for free, but because the authorities told them they had to. Those differences are extremely stark; I don’t see anyone in the Linux community who was forced to work under penalty of law. Giving something away, while Microsoft sells it at a cost, is the free market at work. All of a sudden Bill Gates doesn’t have a total monopoly and has to compete with people, who are actually passionate, about the software they’re creating. I don’t think the idea of Linux is really all that socialist at all. Maybe some of the developers think it is, but that’s because they’ve never actually looked into socialism.

As a Swedish/English speaker this documentary is really interesting and fascinating seeing how Linus speaks Swedish lmao

49:24 randomly took a cookie from a box, golden

I’m a poet who just ran Hello World in Assembly 86 on Ubuntu (guided by ChatGPT 3.5]. Very easy to compile and run C as well. Would not know where to start doing this on say VS Code. Thank you beautiful nerds

Taking the Recipe analogy. You go to a restaurant and pay for food. I think there's a healthy ecosystem now a days where we all contribute to the toolset to service the commerce so that we can eat

Thank you posting this! Been a Linux user since the late '90s. So cool to hear the backstory from more than just Torvalds and Stallman.

hey, augustin and crellin : drop the post fix, not becoming😉

opensource was not invented but coined

sooooo much conceit, and these guys can't or won't see it, good story however😉🙃.... "i've been a software engineer", realy? how about saying: doing software engineering, because I'm sure this person is more than that😃

Specs?

Thanks for posting. I have fond memories of hanging out with Alan at Sharmans Cross Junior School. We used to have tea round our respective houses and mess with train sets. His dads setup was immense from what I remember but we were rarely allowed near it 😵‍💫😎 cheers Simon

20:00 Fine documentary but they could have really done away with the actors here...

I like how Richard Stallman still thinks that Linus effectively "stole" Linux from him and GNU, and keeps picking that scab at every opportunity... LOL

It's funny to see Tom Costello in his CNBC days... now he's the gray-haired NBC News "tech/aviation" guy... ;-)

Seeing all this history makes me miss my 56K dial-up modem and Prodigy... ;-P The running joke way back when was that the NT in Windows stood for "Not There".... ;-P I remember when there was no internet (pre-Al Gore), no World Wide Web, all mainframe, no PCs (IBM actually said that no one would ever need more than 64K of RAM, so, they just soldered the chips to the motherboard). God, I'm old... but Richard Stallman is older... ;-P EMACS sucks... vi forever! ;-P

I found Richard Stallman to be too fervent in his activism, which was off-putting to many people, and, in my view, ultimately hurts his message. He needs to get some of Steve Jobs' old marketing skills, who could sell crap to a pigeon... ;-) Woz as the tech guy, and Jobs as the marketing guy, was the perfect team to start Apple (although I will never buy an Apple product). BTW, BSD stood for Berkeley Software Distribution...

January 1, 1970.... the beginning of the epoch.... ;-)

As an old UNIX "weenie" from way back (1980s) on Sun Microsystems machines (Motorola 68000 chips), my thought when Linux came out was, "So? UNIX for PCs? It's about damned time.." Funny how Sun eventually made Solaris X86 free...

The documentary maker needed to identify their speakers at least when they first speak on camera. I only identified Richard Stallman of the Open Software Foundation at the beginning talking about a "recipe" because I already knew who he was.

Just ad a silent g to linux i.e. lignux

Damn I was a lot younger when I was there filming that.

what's with the format? it's like a chariot race in a Colosseum will burst at any second.

A high quality upgrade to an excellent documentary. Thank you for your hard work!

This doc always inspires me ! :)

This kind of vlog is just amazing... So they were doing what we now call daily vlogs in the 90s. Amazing 😮 Edit 1: just got to know from Wikipedia that Telsa died in 2015.

This is my 7th time seeing this doctumentary. I'll take short 2 months break and come back to watch it again, so it can be BRAND NEW again lol thanks. =)

I just wanna point out that this documentary was filmed long before many of the currently standard distros were available. Most notably Ubuntu and its downstream derivatives.

May i ask how did you make it run on linux ?

One of the best "Fine, I'll do it myself" stories ever produced!

this BG music hurts my ears
