The Code: Story of Linux documentary (Multilingual)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zPt_e9Cdk08 This is a new HQ rip that I made recently. This has not been compressed at all by me, but I've only deinterlaced it and upscaled it to 1080p. The reason I did the upscale is because the higher the resolution the higher the quality that YouTube will use for the video in general. Another difference from the old rip is that this rip has a framerate of 50 fps, not 25 fps. This preserves all the motion from the source video. Every step of the ripping process has been done using the lossless FFV1 codec, and the only lossy compression was done by YouTube's video encoder.

Linux just rocks, it just gets better and better. I don't care if its called free software or open source or whatever all the people who contribute are beautiful and I cannot thank you enough.

1991 - 2010 : "Write something to do a single thing and do it well" 2010 - Present "SYSTEMD WILL TAKE CARE OF EVERYTHING FOR YOU DON'T WORRY"

I think Dr. Stallman deserves respect for what he created. Free software may seen as religion for some people, but is a important feature to the whole industry.

Aww yeah, never too late to watch a decade old documentary on technology. 2001 I salute you.

Watching with firefox on fedora on a free computer...

when i finish growing my beard I'm gonna write some code

Parents computer can barely run windows xp. It is old and outdated. I slapped Ubuntu on it, runs faster then expected, almost butter smooth, and it's great for browsing the web and running open office. Thanks Linus!

I picked up from my neighbor's trash all the equipment I needed to setup the latest version of LINUX. With it, I can code C/C++. python, JAVA etc...

Epic documentary. Changed my view on this matter. Cheers!

Wow, the quality is AMAZING! mind blown Great job with the subtitles as well :)

I'm very grateful to +dervish for translating the subtitles to Russian! The subtitle has now been added to the video! Thank you, dervish :) I'm sometimes late to answer messages, and I suspect I don't even receive them sometimes. If any of you have written me about the subtitles here in the comments, I'd appreciate it if you send me a message also. I really appreciate help with translating the subtitles, and I update the subtitles archive each time. Here's the latest archive with the subtitles (incl. Russian): www.dropbox.com/s/ma7jv16cedccd1q/Subtitles_for_Th…

As a Swedish/English speaker this documentary is really interesting and fascinating seeing how Linus speaks Swedish lmao

brilliant documentary! love it!

Thanks for this valuable share. 1st time I've seen it, and I did not pause and jump away, which means it was constructed well. Thank you again!

Thanks for posting this video. I am new to Linux and I now appreciate it more after having watched your video. I thought the young person added much to the enjoyment of the video and don't understand the haters.

I will say this... And this is one thing that I really like about Linux and why I am slowly coming more and more around to the concept and becoming even more curious about it. This is where Linux has helped me. My parents recently purchased two new Windows 10 PCs to replace an old, failing virus-laden Windows 7 laptop. Now, at this time I had (and still have) a somewhat newer laptop that originally had Windows 7 and has since been upgraded twice to where it now runs Windows 10 as well, however, I felt it a shame to see their old laptop go to waste. Being the sort of curious-type that I am, I decided that I wanted to fix my parent's old system and bring it back to life. I had been curious for a while about Linux and so decided to go that route. Best... Decision... Ever. I liked the fact that Linux was free (I am not made of money) and I was also impressed with just how easy it was to download and install. That old PC is no longer virus-laden, nor is it anywhere close to failing anymore. Yes, it is a bit of a learning curve but that just makes me even more excited about learning Linux. Best thing? This formally 'old, failing' system is now FASTER than my Windows 10 PC. Seriously. My original plan was to use the Linux PC for gaming and experimentation and my Windows 10 PC for the 'serious' stuff... However, I now find myself using the Linux PC (remember, this was the old, failing system that my parents were going to throw away) for pretty much EVERYTHING now due to just how well it performs now. I hate to say it, but, my former 'pride and joy', my Windows 10 PC, I now just pretty much keep around as a loaner for my close friends and co-workers who find themselves in temporary need of a PC. I know... it's kinda sad, really, but it's true. My Linux system runs circles around it now and I just kinda don't like using the Windows 10 PC anymore... It's just getting too slow and too glitchy. All in all, side by side... Linux is definitely winning for me. Best way I've found so far to breathe new life into an old system... :)

At the time Linux came out, it wasn't a decision to overthrow Microsoft or anyone else. Linus had what was basically a hobby project he created to fill a void that he had. Without further work, it would not be of any marketable value and would not be able to compete against established operating systems already in existence. Had the internet not come out when it did, it would not have gotten the exposure and support that it did and would never have developed into what it is today. Open source has its weak points but without open source, there wouldn't be a free exchange of ideas that allow things to be developed and created. Love it or hate it but linux has made the world a better place for its being created.

This documentary is soo good! Thanks a lot for sharing.

Thank you so much for this. A very infomative doc.
