I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're refering to as Wife, is in fact, GNU/Wife, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Wife.

Sure, here's her genome. Feel free to compile one yourself.

[-] superkret@feddit.org 174 points 6 days ago

The word "free" does not refer to price; it refers to freedom.

  1. The freedom to use your wife as you wish, for any purpose.
  2. The freedom to study how your wife works, and change her so she works for you as you wish, instead of her controlling you.
  3. The freedom to redistribute your wife to your neighbor.
  4. The freedom to distribute your modified wife to others. By doing this you can give the whole community a chance to benefit from your changed wife.

That's love

Seems like what Dominique Pelicot considered his wife to be. Not an example I am willing to follow, I'll tell you that.

[-] Jesus_666@lemmy.world 30 points 6 days ago

You have to keep in mind that your wife is her own main maintainer and can decide whether to merge your changes.

You can fork her to obtain someone you have greater influence over but that's a big responsibility and not everything you want to do with your fork may be advisable from a legal or moral standpoint.

Not your wife's freedom?

[-] JackbyDev@programming.dev 26 points 5 days ago
[-] GamingChairModel@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago

You can have the code to my kernel, sure. You don't get a login on my machine, though, and you're definitely not on the sudoers list.

[-] echolalia@lemmy.ml 98 points 6 days ago

I am the wife.

Unrelated, why aren't there more women in Linux spaces? We'll never get to the bottom of it I fear. I haven't read the comments in this thread yet, I'm sure they're all completely uncontroversial.

[-] uis@lemm.ee 29 points 6 days ago

I am the wife.

So are you or your wife free and open source?

[-] krimsonbun 6 points 4 days ago

maybe not cis women.

[-] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 14 points 5 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

because linux users are tech oriented, the market is barely touched by linux, and tech oriented people are disproportunately male/not cisgender women.

Hannah Montana Linux can only do so much /s

edit : added "not cisgender women." I really don't want to start a thing about this statement, it's to align with the pendant that replied to this post.

[-] starbrite@lemmy.zip 14 points 5 days ago

A fellow linux girl!!! It's nice to not feel so alonee

[-] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 4 points 5 days ago

looks at comment section yep you're right, ew

[-] thevoidzero@lemmy.world 9 points 6 days ago

We need more information to reach people. So far I've only seen people be into Linux when they have less social life growing up so they spend time online (not in tiktoks or such like now).

Since most people hearing about Linux from class or other people only hear about the bad aspects or how hard it is if they even hear about it. When I came to US university, I was so surprised noone knew about linux or cared enough except handful of people. And most people did it for work (super computer people, grad students) that didn't like it and express their opinions openly.

That's so uncool. They should be sitting next to that OP so they can share in the humor.
Sad 😔

I committed

[-] criss_cross@lemmy.world 11 points 6 days ago

Didn't she get them fired for that?

[-] ebolapie@lemmy.world 13 points 5 days ago

One of the devs she was complaining about got fired. The blowback hit harder though. She got fired, her (former) employer and her personal blog both got DDOSed, and she received a shitload of graphic death threats.

Right?

[-] Tinidril@midwest.social 46 points 6 days ago

Um sure? As long as she is up for it. I love her, I don't own her. Keep it safe, sane, and consensual, then who am I to argue.

You can’t see her because she’s decentralized

When someone gives you that emotionless stare, it means not only is you comment not funny, it's not really socially acceptable.

Linux users are not all male, or all straight, or single. Outside of incel groups, most groups aren't (probably even they have members who secretly aren't!) 😃

[-] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 6 points 5 days ago

Yeah, as a married lesbian linux user the joke is gross and reminds me why so often tech related spaces are so male dominated

[-] jabjoe@feddit.uk 4 points 4 days ago

Which sucks, because tech needs women. Badly.
