G ps. shit, over the years this list is infecting my attitude.

The time would have been better spent on supporting/improving OpenBSD or another project. OpenBSD has mystique, a bunch of brilliant-but-prickly guys building a super-secure OS for their own use, everyone's heard of it but few actually use it, "ooh OpenBSD, that's hardcore." In a systemd-and-Microsoft world it starts to look something like the Man in the High Castle of operating systems, which is a tempting target for those who like the comfort of the majority.

It indeed is written by someone lacking knowledge about everything.

You can say the same for 99.9% of all open source/free software: because they are free, in the public eye and easy to access, they attract more attention than products you have to pay a fortune for. Who criticises a k$ software with no source attached? This is the downside of "given enough eyeballs, all bugs are shallow". -- Ottavio Caruso

Theo has been known to be fairly opiniated, but "physically attacked"? How can you take this guy seriously ? I found it pretty comical.

I just don't get it why some people put so much energy into bashing a free product instead of just ignoring it if they really hate it. The time would have been better spent on supporting/improving OpenBSD or another project.
