Also an anti-vaxxer and eschewed almost all forms of modern medicine. It's why he died needlessly from a very treatable form of cancer.

But let's praise him for how much he hated fans.

Back in the 1980s I used spend a fair amount of work time in rooms with a VAX and can attest to their powerful and noisy fans. If you are a pro with a VAX, you had better be a fan liker.

I’d like to say that I enjoyed first learning machine code on a VAX due to its orthogonal instructions and large fans, but it wouldn’t be true, because I learned on a MIPS machine.
