You aren’t disagreeing with anything I said. It’s all very asterisk-y. And if my personal preference/position is unclear. I run non proprietary *nix systems at a 7:1 ratio to proprietary. Precisely because of the better support. Come October that ratio is going to be getting even more lopsided.
Oh absolutely. You’re preaching to the choir here. Part of the reason I have a lot of hope around riscv. The processor designs themselves aren’t necessarily open source. But with the ISA being open and open source the first to embrace. It “could” foster a new much less proprietary ecosystem.
Proprietary “can” mean better support. But that’s asterisk heavy. Often that comes down to commercial hardware putting up road blocks to competitors. Or the open source solution being the product of a single developer in their spare time.

I generally agree with hank
IKR? Shades of Ralph Wiggum.
If the most relevant way to describe someone is “influencer”. Then everyone influenced by them is a moron. They are just a mega moron. It’s a safety hazard any of these vehicles are allowed on the road. Let alone, driving autonomously with no actual intelligence on board.
Ozzy, Malcolm, and Chuck on the platform. Ready to ride the crazy train to heaven. Just waiting for them to clear the tracks of that meat head wrestler bulk. From the crossroads to hell. Gotta be able to get up to speed to go off thr rails with that crazy train.
Yep even if people don’t know his music. He was still a cultural icon on KOTH.
We lost a Mangione too!
Push back would have unfortunately been performative. For decades national Democrats and their supporters have been hyperfocused on the presidency. Ceding many lower offices to Republican fascists without a fight. Democrats haven’t held a solid legislative/judicial majority in nearly 50 years. Republicans have. Which has allowed them to neuter and negate everything Democrats have tried. Which wasn’t much.
While I would have liked to have seen Obama speak out more. The fact that he would have only been speaking out with nothing being done wouldn’t have been that positive for them and cost them a lot of political Capital they could use for other things. And indeed, in 2028 if Democrats somehow managed to win the presidency again. Without having a solid control of the legislature etc. It will be the same as them not winning. They really need to start focusing on the state level heavily. And winning back areas they’ve long since given up on. Only then will they be able to do more than just bitch and whine.
Yes. Which isn’t a deal-breaker. But definitely a limiter in application. Something like this or Briar would be useful for example on large marches or public protests. Though maybe not this with apparently how insecure and poorly thought out it is. Which I suppose is on brand for Dorsey.
Too true
