From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

first off, please announce that the video is from that brody clown so people can not click on that slop; needless to say, I ain't watched it so I don't know or care what points was made in it.
second, what OP is doing in OP and his bonehead comments is purposefully pushing a strawman argument, false dichotomy, red herring, and all the other logical fallacies in order to posture as a hero or whatever they got going on between their ears - if you're anti this bullshit "law" then you are also pro physically harming poor FOSS "contributors".
this fucking "contribution" shoulda been shot down like any other troll/bullshit plaguing every other FOSS project beset with ai bots and carma-farming typo-fixers and the like, and if by some mistake their "contribution" was accepted, here's a chance to reverse it.
cali ain't the world, which by and large ain't got no such idiocy on the books. and if it did, I wouldn't bootlick my way to submitting a patch to incorporate it; I would, in fact, oppose it any way I could.
that clown of a "contributor" has a history of simping for the backwardest ideas, antithetical to FOSS and I don't care one bit what he has to say on any one topic.
Funny to see someone else with an active distaste for his videos. He sets off predatory alarm bells in my head and feels smarmy to me.
Yeah. Brody and Lunduke both have some very strange positions I don’t agree with. They also just kinda give the ick, as the cool kids would put it.
Lunduke got posted yesterday as well.
If you refuse to listen to the experience of the person the Linux community has been harassing, then don't comment.
Many Lemmy users have explicitly called for violence against Dylan Taylor, and many more have brought forwards implied calls to violence. The Lemmy community is broadly 50:50 on their support for said calls for the violence.
I'm commenting on your shitty takes. second, if you've spent decades (that's plural yo) on this planet, then you're familiar with the concept of a hyperbole. a hyperbole is a purposefully exaggerated statement in order to draw attention to the importance of an issue. e.g. I could eat a horse - no you couldn't, you're just mildly inconvenienced with what you think is hunger.
consequently, there's a distinction to be made between actual calls to violence (of which I haven't seen any on this platform) and vividly voicing disgust and anger.
I guess he should try his hardest to get his bootlicking commit rolled back
There's astroturfing. Careful with judging community vibes by obviously votes but also comments.
There is more to "The Lemmy community" than what's on display on .ml.
