Freedom OS (Documentary)
« on: March 27, 2012, 09:47:15 pm »
Just rewatched Freedom OS while doing some cardio, it reminded me how badass Richard Stallman and Linux Torvalds are!!!!!!!!

It's kinda old (2001) but a must watch if you haven't already seen it!

That's on Netflix, I've seen it about 4 times. Even made my wife watch it, now her laptop is dual-boot and she's spending more time with linux.


I don't think it's on netflix, but "Code Rush" is good. It's about how netscape went to opensource when they released Mozilla Firefox.


On netflix, check out "A future we will create: TED" link.

It's about the free software movement, GNU/Linux, tells where the term opesource came from, and why and how the Linux kernel came to be.
