They haven’t been involved with that for years and it’s open source so it’s as likely to have a backdoor as any other part of the code.

Next to none. You’re just spreading FUD.

That’s Linus for you. He’s extremely misanthropic. This isn’t his first PR fuck up. Except this time his abrasiveness triggered an international incident.

Well it’s open source so you can check.

Meh, if they really leave this will prompt the US government or corps to finally start paying these developers. This flare up is a blessing in disguise.

There’s no shame in being a liberal.

This is how the US will console itself after losing billions in sales because of their unhinged little sis.

Yeah, you can’t do something this cartoonishly evil without it leaving a last impact on the reputation of both your country and it’s products.

It’s proving that POSIX architecture is necessary even if it requires additional computer literacy on the part of users and admins.

The risk of hacking (which is what Crowdstrike essentially does to get so deeply embedded and be so effective at endpoint protection) a monolithic system like Windows OS is if you screw up the whole thing comes tumbling down.

This Rhino must be talking to liberals.

I’m not in danger. And sometimes cities like mine have special homeless units that aren’t cops.

I’d close the door on him then call the police. Y’all can virtue signal all you want but these homeless people can have mental illnesses and be dangerous.

Love him. His one hot take, which was completely misconstrued by the Twitter mafia, doesn’t take away from the fact that he’s been right for 50 years straight.

We’d still be in the IT stone ages without him. If you don’t believe me just look at the software they used to charge money for in the 1990’s.

Microsoft would have likely taken over the Web Server market just as they had the Desktop market, without him. The internet would be a fraction of the size it is now.

I wish his license had allowed for more equitable distribution of profits. It’s a crying shame companies can build billion dollar enterprises off of open source software and not pay devs a penny. It’s a problem that continues to hobble libre open source software all the way into today. But he’s stated he’s not a socialist so I can’t hold that against him too much.

Prepare your anus.

Which communities, I would like to know more.

I don’t think it’s dumb but very overrated and not anywhere near as deep as people make it out to be. It’s little surprise that “the red pill” had been embraced by so many arrogant people that are pretty ignorant.

I love The Purge, especially election day. They really hit that sweet spot between exploitative horror and substantive political commentary.

Which is what the best B movies do.

This is what I was thinking. And you can’t really graph out things over time on a graph which is really critical for a lot of workflows.

I get that Splunk and Elastic or unwieldy beasts that take way too much maintenance for what they provide for many orgs but to think grep is replacement is kinda crazy.
