@hexaheximal Lets be honest:

The average #EndUser is most likely so #TechIlliterate they'd not even know how to file an issue on #GitHub, much less provide any patches to it.

#GPLv3 harmed #FLOSS as a net negative for being more of an ideological manifesto than a useable license, demanding stuff that goes completely against existing laws and reality (espechally in terms of patents) and basically opened up the floodgates to what I consider "asshole licensing" that solely exists to stifle any competition and enshure said FLOSS can't be freely used. (see #SSPL, which is worse than a CC-BY-NC-SA as it literally has provisions that may not be strictly legal in many juristictions)...

"Freedoms" also don't work if they ain't real choices:
We can't claim people ain't forced to do wagework when not having a job will cause them to get homeless, die from starvation and sickness.

#TechLiteracy is seriously underdeveloped and in fact we see massive amounts of #regression.

The Idea of OS/1337 is to build something that is actually auditable and reproduceable even at the cost of functionality...

Because only the freedoms one can actually exercise against the will of the state are effective!

@Jain If Linus wasn't a weapons-grade #TechIlliterate and had actual 100GBASE-SR1.2 as per 802.3bm-2015 installed as well as proper storage and networking in general then there would've been nothing wrong with a #diskless workstation setup.

The problem is that he doesn't know what he's doing and the more experience I gain the more obvious it gets that he doesn't know tech!

For real...

@WPalant I really hope this case gets reversed by 180° and that the origibal developers get sentenced for "criminally gross neglect" in return!

Shit like this only happens because #TechIlliterate judges are at the helm and unquestionably absorb the lies of the filing party without seeking professional consultation...

@flippac @cstross I mean it's obvious shit like #Astrohaus is a #grift aimed at exploiting #TechIlliterate #GareGivers and #Parents who don't know better.

It's like a lot of shit solutions pushed towards #disabled and #needy people.

Speaking of "breaking childrens necks":
We could've had all the #Schoolbooks as #ePub textbooks over 25 years ago but #Texbook #Publishers refused to make that possible, so kids lugged around up to 20kg of books depending on their schedule and homework assignments.

@forrestbrazeal #AI like #Cloud and #Blockchain are just #Scams made to grift #TechIlliterate #DecisionMakers!

Because they upsell some #MainsplainingAsAService as AI, #ThereIsNoColoudOnlyForeignCompaniesServers and there is literally no use for #Blockchain when #ImmuDB exists that provides the same advantages but without all the bullshit costs...

The problem are the #ConcreteHeads at the top!!

Nach der Logik wäre jede*r den ich kenne welce*r kein*e #TechIlliterate*r #Windows-User*in ist, ein*e Terrorist*in...

@landley
#SFTP is IMHO better than #FTP(S) unless one wants to host stuff publicly like a repository but then again #HTTP(S) can do the same and apparently way better in terms of scaling because there was money put into making webservers go brr and we have all the value-removing rentseekers like #ClownFlare that need to sell #DigitalSnakeoil to #TechIlliterate Decisionmakers believing in #Scams like #Antivirus and #WebApplicationFirewalls to be worth paying for.

Okay, sorry for the venting.
