  • If there were a single corporate controlled entry point all these people were funneling into there would be posential for enshittification. Even if a single free vertically integrated project like debian suddenly had the majority of all PC users it would probably be impossible for them to avoid the corruption of money. But the linux ecosystem appears to currently be growing in a manner that preserves its diversity and organic nature and thus seems able to remain quite healthy in doing so

  • I recently wiped my 10yr running windows install that had all manner of shady hacks applied over the years to basically lobotomize it, after a hardware upgrade. As I was wiping I was largely intending to create another "lobotomized" win10 install as the second install on dual boot, but windows on top of everything is known for breaking dual boot. Working around sheer hostility at every level, and for what? Basically just to play pirated games since steam games work on Linux now. I never bothered trying to prop it back up and have been only better off for it

  • Leaving in the bootloader unlock gives people who want to retain sideloading a place to retreat to that google still ultimately controls. Which is more appealing to a sociopathic corporation than cutting people off entirely

  • Graphene is locked to google hardware, so google effectively holds the keys to graphene too

  • I would say nytimes has as much dignity as a circus clown but it's not even funny so what's the point

  • Yeah, I'm all for anonymity but the quality of the article is so poor it's like it was published or boosted to undermine the position than actually promote it

  • turbo buttons: we're so back

  • right? are they really so short on dramatic things to write about they need to attach themselves like vampires to the minutae of open source software development? what's next, news articles about people with differing opinions on.. hydraulics manufacuring strategies?

  • It's bits, not bytes. And endianness is a huge consideration in systems programming. And it's basically Linus' whole role at this point to enforce extreme consistency and standards since the project is so large with so many contributors

  • They raided the damn white house anyway. Everything they say is utterly disingenuous, "reactions" most of all

  • deplatforming nazis is a civic duty

  • I wish these companies would go and make themselves so easy to quit

  • Wow I didn't really expect Burr to align so strongly against the system but I'm here for it.

  • but it seems that this method of communication completely drowned out by moneyed interests
