IBM will offer his kids RedHst board membership and a pile of stock.

Short term, my next phone will have Harmony NextOS installed. I’d rather give my data to China than the US and 5-Eyes.

My fear is they will decide, at some point, to toss the GPL in the toilet because of “national security.”

While I’m glad to see M$ Office being replaced with LibreOffice, I hope the governments and companies doing so, also channel funds into development.

It’s not complete until there is a cat napping on the keyboard.

I’m still waiting on a Chuck Schumer/Hakeem Jeffries episode.

A US family moving into their new tent after a flood destroyed their old home. Nothing is free.

How to find out if your HR Department has a sense of humor.

Why is there a dead cat in my box?

At the moment, my hope is to be able to land a Harmony NextOS phone soon. I’d just as soon cough up data to the Chinese as 5-Eyes and Google.

Question for the tech savvy, why Linux instead of FreeBSD? China’s KylinOS started out as a FreeBSD fork before switching gears to Linux. Wouldn’t the FreeBSD license be better suited to governments?

China replacing Windoze with KylinOS (BDS) on all government computers and manufacturers using openKylin (Linux) on domestic products, will put a dent in the ol’ M$ monopoly.

We want our software to be communist, but it is a capitalist world (at present). Navigating in the grey area between the two will always lead to controversy. We’re like China, trying to walk a tightrope between the ideal and the practical.

All I remember is the years of M$ using lawsuits and FOSS to try and kill Linux. Using anything from Windoze is like saying, yeah, but the Nazi built some good stuff too. M$ tried to murder our baby, and should never be forgiven nor trusted.

How many of lthe “problems” with Linux are a direct result of decades of M$ lawsuits and FUDD. M$ is a pro-Zionist, genocide supporting, Mossad backing, evil entity currently forcing Copilot into GitHub. M$ is not to be trusted.
