Is there another example of this happening in Facebook aside for the openKylin post? I looked around and every article is only talking about this specific DistroWatch issue.

4·4 days agoI guess we just found out. https://github.com/deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-V3
1·10 days agowlroots doesn’t support HDR.
Adding republicans to the title would get less clicks though.
4·17 days agoEverybody knows how to produce the chips. The problem is getting your hands on new ASML machines without the USA finding out.
Torvald and many others aren’t American, not subject to it, and publicly stated that they weren’t forced to do it.
This is my last response to you because you just keep saying things that are false while calling me the liar. Linus is an American citizen, and even if he wasn’t, the Linux Foundation is an American organisation.
You’re claiming, hyperbolically might I add, that you know whats going on with Torvald and the foundation better than those people themselves. And still showing no actual proof or causation. How can anyone conclude anything other than you are gaslighting and being misleading? It’s Mega level bullshit conspiracy theories.
Literally linked the USA sanctions that apply to this case, but ok.
Saying that I’m gaslighting without even bothering to check the facts is a very interesting approach. USA sanctions on Russia regarding software and IT services went into effect on September, and all parties had 90 days to comply or be sanctioned as well. If he really did it only because he wanted to, why not do it as soon as the Russian invasion started? Why not do it as soon as the sanctions were announced (June)? Not kicking all employees from sanctioned companies means the Linux Foundation is sanctioned as well.
It is not a mischaracterization though. Open source projects can be forced to stop accepting contributions from employees of sanctioned companies, which would include Tencent employees if sanctioned. Anyways, Tencent is not being sanctioned here, so I guess it doesn’t really matter.
Also, Linus was definitely forced to kick the Russian maintainers out by USA sanctions.
Why is he a threat to the power of billionaires?
You are allowed to suggest sentencing. This isn’t preferential treatment to Google. Of course, the judge doesn’t have to listen to anybody’s suggestions, but you are definitely allowed to make them.
Manganese dioxide is used to decompose ozone. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S1001074222005083
The material itself cannot be magnetized, which is what they mean by not “being magnetic”. However, these do have spin currents that can be measured and controlled, so they sustain “magnetic activity”. Kind of like a hybrid between ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic.
TRULY modern OS
What does this even mean? So iOS, MacOS, Windows11, Linux aren’t modern?
a way better compositor than wayland (in fact, android has the best compositor in the world, compared to ANY OS)
Wayland is not a compositor, it’s a protocol. SurfaceFlinger can totally be made in Wayland. Saying SurfaceFlinger is better than Wayland is like saying words are better than English.
A properly modified desktop OS based on it (better than Samsung’s DeX for example), that is also able to run normal Linux apps, would be a huge winner.
Nobody will ever use this on Linux, unless it is implemented in Wayland. It is infinitely more likely for Android to rewrite its compositor for Wayland than SurfaceFlinger being adopted as Linux’s main compositor.
Do you really talk to your friends through email?
But what does that actually mean? When he actually went through the propper channels for his position? Department of Defense is a VERY wide organisation, and allegedly he did just that.
It means exactly that. File a complaint with the DOD or IC IG’s office.
Claiming he us not a whistleblower, because a VERY specific procedure needs to be followed is just a legal cop out. It’s an ambiguous law that can be used to burry shit indefinitely, and bent to be applied as they wish if people go public.
Here you are saying the same wrong information for the third time. He does not qualify as a whistleblower because be publicly leaked classified information, there’s nothing ambiguous about that.
Snowden: I raised NSA concerns internally over 10 times…
…Snowden said. “The NSA has records. They have copies of emails right now to their Office of General Counsel, to their oversight and compliance folks, from me raising concerns about the NSA’s interpretations of its legal authorities.”
Right. He was able to copy millions of classified documents but forgot to get copies of the same emails that prove he raised concerns through the proper channels. This is the only email that there’s record of, and it was not even submitted by Snowden, but by the NSA.
2·2 months agothe proposal included a 5 year ban on any browsering
I guess 5 years is not too bad, but the judge would probably never agree to the ban.
Did you submit a bug report?
Given that even Mozilla (who has significantly less resources than Google) had the ability to create a second web engine and then abandon it, it would be dumb to think that Google doesn’t have at least 2 or 3 teams working on different browsers or engines for no reason.
Unless they’re prohibited from creating another web browser ever again (which would most likely be a bad idea), they can probably come up with a working browser in less than two years
It used to be double that, so I can see why people see it as a bad thing. But I also don’t think 7.1B profits qualifies as “poor financial results”, even if it used to be higher.
