Wizards of the electronic era

    A little background


    A few days ago, I really wanted to review a couple of the performances of the inimitable RMS (which is Richard Matthew Stallman ). On YouTube, such bulk goods and I received the life-giving charge of the sacred power of GNU from the Great Prophet of Free Software. Particular attention was drawn to one short video from 1984, in which Uncle Ricci was still relatively young, still not so skilled in rhetoric, and who still had to develop the GPL. A footnote to this video explained that the stub is part of a short film called " Hackers: Wizards of the Electronic Age ". Finding it entirely turned out to be not a very simple task, but I did find, download and upload it to YouTube specifically for nostalgic Habrovsk citizens and for all those who are interested in the history of IT, hacker culture and open source software.

    26 minutes and 35 seconds of travel in 1984 ...

    Translation, of course, no.
