‘The more I see of what you call civilisation, the more highly I think of what you call savagery.’
Are they legally bound to follow any sanction list in their dealings? If so Linux foundation should consider move out of the US jurisdiction, because the santion load is just going to increase and more countries will be included.
If they are just doing this because of a political fad and partaking “the current thing” then they are just voluntarily digging their own and the linux foundation’s grave.
What the hell is an ActivityPub platform?
My biggest problem is that everything goes under the ECB, not to the national level central banks. The “they can see where and how much did you buy” is mute point, since they alredy could do that. And it’s even worse when there are private companies that sell your info for profit.
it’s more like the bits are representing physical cash, but in the future the physical cash will represent the bits. Most money is digital even now and even the physical cash is mostly just paper money, not precious metals, not even the coins probably have their worth in metals, so it makes sense.
political elites in Europe are afraid and fear upheavals are coming in the coming years and months because of the cost of living crisis and the war. They try to clamp down beforehand to preserve their own power. This always happens when things go bad. The leash is kept looser when people behave and it’s tightened again when the opposite happens. There is no real freedoms that is given to the people by the elites, because what concessions they give willingly they can just as easily take away when they no longer feel like it. Provided that they think they can get away with it.
Good. Necessity creates innovation. not so good for ASML that is getting competition created for it by the sanctions that aren’t doing so hot.
For german government “Never again” meant just never again genocide against jews. All other people are fine and free game.
They will try it again in like two to three years from now. This time they will just do a under the radar and somewhat diluted version of it.
Annihilation fits within the criteria, but it’s not really a “small”, indie or less known movie.
Die Fabre is cool, I guess. It’s a 2010 film adaptation of color out of space.
Some rolling release might be good for driver updates, so arc si good for that or manjaro for easier use, but I guess it doesn’t really matter if hardware isn’t the cutting edge and even like mint might do and it might be a bit more stable.
pacman. I have most experience with it and it just seems easier than apt once one learns the commands. less to write overall.
The project is open source so it would keep going, at worst case people could fork it or whatever. They would just lift up one of the maintainers to take Linus’ job. I don’t know how this would apply to the Linux foundation, but I think he still would be replaceable, it’s all designed that way, because IT sector wouldn’t have all it’s eggs in one basket that might break if one guy leaves or dies.
