    >mais Linus pète un peu son cable, remarque pas son 1er coup d'éclat

    Linus est une personne dotée d'un grand sens de l'humour, de l'auto-dérision, et capable de rédiger des emails assassins. Son coup de gueule contre les Gnomistes n'est en aucun cas son "1er coup d'éclat".

    exemples (tirés de wikiquotes et de mes bookmarks):

    HURD:
    "In short: just say NO TO DRUGS, and maybe you won't end up like the Hurd people."

    ACPI:
    "The fact that ACPI was designed by a group of monkeys high on LSD, and is some of the worst designs in the industry obviously makes running it at _any_ point pretty damn ugly."

    et un de mes préférés (Mach/HURD et FreeBSD):
    "I claim that Mach people (and apparently FreeBSD) are incompetent idiots."

    qui fut suivi de cette clarification:
    "I also claim that Slashdot people usually are smelly and eat their boogers, and have an IQ slightly lower than my daughters pet hamster (that's "hamster" without a "p", btw, for any slashdot posters out there. Try to follow me, ok?).

    Furthermore, I claim that anybody that hasn't noticed by now that I'm an opinionated bastard, and that "impolite" is my middle name, is lacking a few clues.

    Finally, it's clear that I'm not only the smartest person around, I'm also incredibly good-looking, and that my infallible charm is also second only to my becoming modesty."

    Juste pour resituer le pirate-talk day dans une longue tradition d'emails plus marrants et/ou polémiques les uns que les autres.
