  • Oh, just saw the text of your post. So maybe it's a reference to the car's computer not running on windows? I mean, they probably could.

  • Linux definitely wouldn't be stranded without corporate input. A.) A large portion of Linux has been written by volunteers, not employees of a corporation giving back to the project, and B.) The majority of the time these corporate contributions are things like drivers for their own closed source hardware to work with Linux. I've only ever contributed to open source voluntarily, with the exception of three pull requests that were written so that, surprise surprise, our corporate shit could work with the open source shit. I'm not saying there wouldn't be disruptions if we axed all that code, just that it wouldn't be the project-ending amount you suggested.

  • This is why I don't agree with the GPL. It's perfect in every way, except for the allowance to utilize the licensed work or derivatives thereof for monetary gain. Fuck that shit. You got it for free, you give it away for free.

  • Oh my god, would he be an Autoworker? Do you think he's in NASCAR heaven striking with the UAW right now?? "I ain't drivin' no Chevy 'til GM signs the fuckin' contract." Holy shit I think I love him even more now. 🥺

  • So cool that he was such a union man, I wonder if he was in a union himself? Like a NASCAR union or a Goodwrench union, or just a car 3 union, but I guess he'd be the only member in that case, though.
