No they dont, not with the current american administration.

I dont think that there is another way. They are gonna have to coexist with the old guard. The problem is, they are both right. Rust is the better language, its basically made for this task, but C runs everywhere, it has a much larger userbase, and introducing a second language into a huge low level program like Linux will make it much, much harder to maintain.

Nightshade doesnt actually work btw. Denoising, a common technique, also breaks nightshade completely. Its also closed source, with no way to test if it actually works for the big AIs. The person making nightshade is really fishy too.

Someone made it! Here is the game if you want to play it: https://black-vein-productions.itch.io/tony-hawks-existential-nightmare

then why make it closed source to begin with?

I was interested until the website proudly stated that the kernel is not under the GPL, but the weak copyleft MPL. Great, an alternative to the linux kernel for companies to steal, yay...

Finally we can make "-3000 Social credits" jokes in reference to Russia!

I love technology...

A lot of drivers for hardware are actually not open source, just unreadable binaries that do ...something. No one knows exactly how they work, so some people consider them a security risk.

I think its because the linux kernel is GPL2, not the modern GPL3 like most free software, so I think thats why some components are allowed to be non-free. Not sure though.

So, that practice violates the spririt of free software. So some distributions have those components removed. Its safer, but you may lose functionality, depending on what computer components you have.

Its an important project, and judging by the other comments here, underappreciated.

Is this xitter drama im supposed to care about?

well... i prefer the old logo :(

Die Schlagzeile scheint irgendwie komisch aggressiv dafür was er tatsächlich gemacht hat: Offensichtliche Satire über Verschwörungsschwurbler, und die "überwiegend kritischen Reaktionen" waren besagte Schwurbler die sich auf den Schlips getreten fühlen und, wie er schreibt, bots.
