This has been around for some time and I was amazed to find that it made
the front page of reddit. (Perhaps user-based editing isn't all that
great after all?)

Anyway, my personal opinion (should anyone care) is that it's totally
lame and just goes to show that if you _want_to_be_ a "true hacker" you
start wearing your pants above your navel,

I can't see it there anymore, it's probably "out" already. ;-)

The aiming hacker should at least hack the logo. ;-) (I once made a
version that flew left-upwards, it think that's more positive.)

Remember kids, blindly doing what ESR says doesn't make you anything
remotely to hacker.

A-fwcking-men!


I think the logo is stupid on principle, and not just because I don't
get it. ;)

Now the Heavy-metal-umlaut "Rüby" is a logo I can stand behind. =)
