It is weird he hasn’t matured in any way since his 20s, yes. Usually humans continue to develop throughout their lives, interest in relationships with people significantly younger than you either shows you haven’t matured since the rough age they are, or you feel people your own age are far too challenging due to their equal footing and prefer manipulating less mature people.

Yes, if enough principaled contributors leave, it’ll no longer make sense for companies to pay for people to contribute.

China is divesting as quickly as possible from the US as they’ve overtaken the use in GDP

Electoralism is a joke in oligarchies, yes.

The US broke from the UK due to the UK over taxing the extremely wealthy in the US to make up the deficit from their war with the French.

Oh that’s cute, you think the legislatures and judicial branches will allow mass adoption.

If states can override ballot measures regarding legal cannabis, and they have repeatedly, they can override this. Neither side of the duopoly has any interest in losing power.

You said to not vote third party, so you can’t vote for rcv.

Only because Harris is black. A racist, sexist, classist conservative woman who spent a good chunk of her life locking up minorities for life over non violent crimes and attempting keep wrongly convicted citizens behind bars? Thatcher loves all of that.

The US sanctions anyone that isn’t under their complete control, it’s not a serious country.

And I’m truly sorry you’re too much of a brainwashed nationalist to understand why free software shouldn’t be affected by petty politics.

You never have looked at that and never will.

It’s better in the long term, free software and the political philosophy behind it is entirely incompatible with American political ideology or geopolitics generally. If everyone can contribute, everyone can benefit. When you start limiting this by arbitrary nonsensical reasoning due to legal obligations you only have because the founder of the foundation has a boner for an idealized America that never existed… Shit gets worse. From this many developers are going to permanently leave Linux development and a few may get petty enough to change their license to prevent use in Linux.

Nope, a decent amount are Chinese. Or European. American companies of course do fund foss so they don’t have to develop much themselves, but it’s certainly not most.

Nope, it’s not.

Excluding developers because of arbitrary sections issued by the most war mongering country in at least the last 10,000 years is not non-controversial, as it turns out.

Either the death of the Linux Foundation or the exclusion of the Linux foundation from kernel development for at least a few versions. In any case Linus likely used the last of his goodwill in proving he’s more American than any other descriptor.

I hope you cultists get what you vote for others.

It’s really not, a smaller project? Maybe. A project with tens of thousands of eyes on it at all times? Not so much.

Cunts

Both are fascist. The guy commiting genocide will never not be a fascist, sorry.

Yeah we thought that about Biden and the fascist xunt still ran again, destroying the primary, and eventually appointed one of the least popular politicians in US history in his stead.
