    Well, he put his brand name on it and now his brand name is synonymous with murder.

    Does he know we have ext4 and lvm now ?

    What did reiserfs have that we don’t have in lvm or btrfs ?

      It had a bunch of features that weren’t in ext3, which was generally standard at the time, depending on how conservative your distro was.

      Considering he seems to be under the impression that OCR still sucks enough that he printed his entire letter, he’s probably not aware of recent computer stuff , (or he just writes like he’s 11, I guess?)

        Seems a bit excessive of a judgement - under the best of conditions, my cursive is an absolute horror show. Always has been, and I’ve zero need for it with any frequency.

        Suffice it to say, he’s not writing under the best of conditions. If you’d like to judge the content/intent, that’s your prerogative. But the quality of his penmanship is an utter irrelevancy.

        OCR does still suck (but many people don’t notice the mistakes), especially the open source stuff. It’s a hard problem to solve. Not even Google and Microsoft can get it right if you try to use their OCR at a slight angle for more than a single sentence.
