Free Software Linux

"We have managed to increase our lifespan in a world that is not fit to live in" (from "The Man from Earth"). This is rather an absurd beginning to an article, but imagine if I were to be sued for quoting from a movie - how completely insane! It would be like being punished for sharing my class notes with a friend (or even worse). But the state of the software world right now is much like this. Closed source software have managed to grab a popularity for which no reason seems to exist. Such software (non-free) restricts the freedom of the user, and is extremely annoying at times. So I take this opportunity to encourage all my readers to adopt Free Software instead of non-free ones. For only free software can build a free computing society. I shall be making a presentation on this topic in my college tomorrow, under the auspices of the Sun Academic Initiative. The presentation itself shall be available here tomorrow. Until then, stay free. PS: Coming up next - how to load remote javascripts at "runtime" from the server!
