"You are very strongly urged to install Linux on your home PC, if you
don’t already have it there."

It's from the syllabus of an old computer science course.

https://heather.cs.ucdavis.edu/matloff/public_html/50/Syllabus.pdf

"Work on Minority Issues:

Professor Matloff lived in an ethnically-mixed East Los Angeles
neighborhood during his early childhood, helping to shape his lifelong
support for affirmative action and activism in improving conditions for
people of color in general and the impoverished, as well as improving
the status of women. Starting with his work in high school in the
election campaign of a black woman (Myrlie Evers), his quest for social
justice has been a major driving force in his life.

He writes frequently about these issues, such as his support of
affirmative action, his exposure of age discrimination and abuse of
foreign worker visa programs in the tech industry, and his defense of
immigrant Asian-American scientists who have been discriminated against
in our national laboratories (Los Alamos and NASA). Prof. Matloff has
been a recipient of the UC Davis Distinguished Public Service Award, in
recognition of his work in these and other areas.

Dr. Matloff brings these ideas into his teaching as well. His department
has its own ethics course, ECS 188, which he has taught several times.
His reading list and assigned term paper reflect this."

If I poke around I'm sure I can find some anti-MS\Windows whining from
this academic.

You don't understand how lame and dishonest and just plain insufferable
you've become lately, Larry Duh.

Lies about data science libraries disabling Windows. Babbling about The
Guardian? Bad troll!

You and I have been exchanging posts off and on for 20 years.

1 in Nov 2004
A few in 2006
99 in 2011
Then you weren't here at all from Apr 2011 to the last few days of 2023.
Close to 13 years. Jail?

It’s OK, you can come out of the closet and admit you’re a secret Open
Source admirer. The “friends” who spurn you were never your real friends
at all.

Don't expect that dumb fsck to be reasonable or fair. He's a
hypocrite, too. Have you noticed how often he praises Notepad++? I
clued him in, on that software, as it's GPL'ed and they request
donations, both practices that hypocritical asshole has ridiculed.

>> "Work on Minority Issues:
>>
>> Professor Matloff lived in an ethnically-mixed East Los Angeles
>> neighborhood during his early childhood, helping to shape his lifelong
>> support for affirmative action and activism in improving conditions for
>> people of color in general and the impoverished, as well as improving
>> the status of women. Starting with his work in high school in the
>> election campaign of a black woman (Myrlie Evers), his quest for social
>> justice has been a major driving force in his life.
>>
>> He writes frequently about these issues, such as his support of
>> affirmative action, his exposure of age discrimination and abuse of
>> foreign worker visa programs in the tech industry, and his defense of
>> immigrant Asian-American scientists who have been discriminated against
>> in our national laboratories (Los Alamos and NASA). Prof. Matloff has
>> been a recipient of the UC Davis Distinguished Public Service Award, in
>> recognition of his work in these and other areas.
>>
>> Dr. Matloff brings these ideas into his teaching as well. His department
>> has its own ethics course, ECS 188, which he has taught several times.
>> His reading list and assigned term paper reflect this."

Since I learn a little too, it's not a total waste of life.
