I still have a soft spot for floppies. 😍

Redditors are garbage, to paraphrase the POTUS.

So you’re a russophobe as well?

Should be interesting, perhaps the Russian fork will become even more successful than the canonical.

Thanks for name-calling, real classy.

At least Trump is probably gonna normalize relations with Russia. On the other hand, he’s probably gonna support Israel even more fervently, whereas Harris would do the opposite - escalate the bickering with Russia and colden the relations with Israel. You can’t have it all.

Linus outed himself a fascist just the other day, so…

Americans should vote for Trump, he’s the best chance to overturn these ludicrous sanctions.

Switzerland?

‘Russian war machine’ - is this perhaps similar to the ‘US Military-Industrial Complex’ that happily delivers bombs to IDF so they can slaughter women and children? It never bothered the peace-loving Linus enough to restrict military use of his kernel…

Exactly, that’s also my view. In Serge’s thread somebody else said Linus used to be his role model but now he is questioning his own beliefs. Sums up my feelings perfectly.

It sucks so bad, Linus really screwed up big time, and GKH dropped the ball as well. What kind of a hellish timeline is this?

Bring Fork out the GIMP!

Same here! I’ve been eyeing OpenBSD for quite some time now.

Ok, dad.

Underrated comment.

No, it’s not good, it’s blatantly russophobic.

I would get it if he would have simply stated that the Linux Foundation needs to abide by the sanctions, pretty much what GKH had said. But for Linus to go ahead with his stupid russophobic rant about Russian bot farms (LOL) is really too much.

Hey, Torvalds! 🖕

I got a Redhat book with boot CD from my cousin (RMS’s lost twin, a total geek) in 1999, later studied Linux and CLI at university and in 2002 built myself a server running SuSe, but it took me 7 more years to fully transition to Linux on all my machines as I still had a box with XP for gaming until then. Every new windows iteration solidifies my aversion to MS products even further and every new version of the kernel, KDE, Wayland, Proton, etc. makes me love the GNU/Linux ecosystem so much more.

I used it for GUI code as well, I hate frontend work so that saves me quite some time getting all the forms together with a few prompts.

Who even uses Twitter anymore? I stopped browsing it more than a year ago after they borked the public API so it’s not usable any longer. I’m not signing up just to browse tweets, F that.
