OK, let's say somebody who hates you to the core and wants to see you dead made software you found great. All they said was stuff like "I think your kind deserves to be shot", "your kind are subhuman", "they hung your kind and I see nothing wrong with that".

Would you use their software? Would you enjoy being part of the numbers that they use to validate getting money, maybe even power? Would you publicly promote their software? Would you get others to use it? Would you even donate to them? Would you get others to donate to them?

I'll check it out. Thanks.

Usually it is as this point things turn to shit in opensource/community/fediverse/cooperative. The devs are not the product.

What does this even mean? Who creates something doesn't matter at all? If that's the case, then using Microshaft products doesn't matter, does it? They can provide the infra and software for bombing Gaza but who cares right? They make software that is worth using so we should keep giving them money. No problem.

It will become a problem for us if lemmy isn't funded, won't it?

I'd rather know the best case. People will read worst cade and go "never happens".

So does the Fairphone.

The plan: sell computers with welded on RAM like crapple.

Anything for profits

Can they? I thought it was an open ISA without a pushover license like MIT.

Unpaid and using an MIT license so that the megacorps dont contribute back? Golly, I wonder who that would be!

If the EU can throw off the shackles from the US, that would be freedom worth gaining. Unless it is traded in for European oligarchs.

Found one!

Not my Linux community. The fascist right doesn't make up all the linux community. They are just the loudest snowflakes in it.

Oh no, I bet you there's a fair few who think rust is woke and deeply connecting with programming socks --> it should be cancelled.

IMO it's also an ideological fit for the current right wingers who connect Rust to progress and use progress as an insult. Since they can't fight Rust on its merits, they have to make up whatever argument they can that fits their narrative.

Sure, it's laziness. Not lack of time or hardware to test with. No, laziness.

So it would be up to the community to insert that metadata torrent into MusicBrainz I guess. 200TB of metadata is insane though. Holy shit.

Why wouldn't they contribute the metadata to musicbrainz? Could do with all the metadata. Anybody downloading it would probably tag it using music brainz

Why not build something on top of Matrix?

P.S what a terrible website. laggy as hell

Another place where Europe needs to throw off the US shackles. Import and exporting goods is not a problem, but allowing one country to monopolise your critical infrastructure is a decision that's beyond stupid. Sometimes the decision is forced, but once there is power to eject the monopoly and the decision is made not to, that's incredibly stupid.

The Trump administrations showing their true colors has been the eye opener the world needed.

What a surprise. I makes me think of the US women treating Eastern Asian women who married western men like whores, victims, or gold-diggers. Many people think about the world locally, not internationally. They apply their ways of thinking to the rest of the world and have trouble understanding that what is normal for me isn't normal for you (and vice versa). They have trouble understanding that things aren't always as they seem and making a summary judgement about a person from a short slice of their life, which they can interpret wrong, does not a person make.
