Me in front of client : listing plausible problems for 10 minutes nonstop, possible price and time range for a fix.
They depart.
I boot the computer. The problem isn't here.
They come back. Say I'm very good.

@Zerglingman @lanodan reminds me of https://satania.moe/ ^^'
@lanodan Also downloading ram is a thing
@LuigiDev @eloquence Functionally speaking I agree. Like, as a dev, open source isn't much different to libre, so why the big fuss ?
But they do not always encompass the same communities.
I think I wouldn't do much free work for "open source" - that I do today and tomorrow - because "libre software" is about more than juste publicly available code.
@LuigiDev @eloquence I can understand that. I still love some of historical/philosophical point RMS made, but I totally get the hostility/disgust a lot of people feels towards him - and I avoid using his name if I can avoid it. I talk about "the libre software movement" and its goal without need of any "hero" leading the way ; even if he was important to the definition of it, he wasn't the movement.
I also avoid talking about "Torvalds" and other, I feel personalities are often irrelevant.
@eloquence I do not agree. Choice of words is always a good topic.
You just don't have to be an ass about it.
@nixCraft I need this same one, but labelled "IT&internet" / "Third world"
I think even FOSS dev are still pretty much elite with luxury of free time and owner of skills on high demand.
Sure they aren't quite as valued as what they really bring to the table - but still, they are highly regarded in their own small communities ; if not as heroes, as the good guys doing the right thing.
When the whole production of IT hardware is only saw as a "meh, too bad it's hurting it's workers, next !".
