Dear all, please remember that engaging with trolls can get you banned (rule of thumb, half the time the offender gets for themselves)
Write what you want others to read, I don’t care if there are disagreements. But go get a private chat room if you want to exchange insults with them :)
They expect the special operation to take only a month.
The thing is, there is no way for the US and British to swoop in and declare unlimited military support for the opposing side in exchange for mineral rights and financial predation on its industry and state assets.
Like many things in Russia, the appearance is more important than the truth. If there were anything substantial made, I’m sure there will one or more soy agencies helping to pad a developer’s savings.
I’m sorry is there anything in your brain other than slop from Google News? You see the word Russia and you start writing fanfiction!
The real challenge facing a kremlin linux fork isn’t opposition, it’s deciding what to do once they realize there aren’t any maternity wards in the kernel they can shoot ballistic missiles at.
Oh first the Russian government is the one responsible for the fork itself, now suddenly they are shooting missiles at it in your mind. The liberal brainpan is a fascinating place.
Oh, was I the one who brought up the war in Ukraine over Linux? No, that was Reddit brigaders infecting every topic they mentally associate with it, as usual.
Sir, this is a Kernel. This is not the United Nations.
That’s what I’m saying, associating it with the SMO is just liberal Russiagate brainworms manifesting over every issue related to the country. I wasn’t the one to bring it up.
Is anyone using BSD as a desktop by the way? Ive only been focusing on Linux.
Go for it. That’s one of the benefits of being FOSS, and other countries have their own versions of Linux already (that meet whatever dumb authoritarian rules are required).
Clearly best downstream of Fedora comrade. Complete with open source anti capitalist technology to save your eyes from the truth the totally inferior OS of the west.
Okay then, that was always allowed
Yeah this is called blowback, like with the chip sanctions, like with industrial and natural resource sanctions. Trying to besiege economies that industrially dwarf the US will make R&D spending skyrocket in the targeted states, and the remaining irreplacable western monopolies will suffer for it, US NGO+academic+corporate domination of the open source scene is something that every gadget using or programming person should hope goes away.
If you want an echo chamber that repeats Wikipedia and Google News slop back to you, Reddit is down the hall and to the right.
And yet you can’t summon even the slightest opposition to the take, only whine about how you don’t think it should exist.
Pick GDP, manufacturing output or whatever metric and look it up: Russia is not even close to the US. China is the one playing in the same league as the Americans.
As for open source being dominated by the US, the stats for Linux development don’t give that portrait at all.
