As it is, I feel like I have to waste my time checking all your
patches, and I’m saying “it’s not worth it”.
I’m basically done with this. I never said I was a VFS guy and I

I was just about to quote that same bit. We gotta report a murder.
His response to Linus was interesting to read.
Oh and especially this comment further down in the conversation…

Oh that’s fun.
Now there’s a bit of internet slang I haven’t heard since vBulletin!
