  • Congress provided $7.5B for electric vehicle chargers. Built so far: Zero.

  • I believe he was comparing it to a similar broadband grant in a comidic fashion

  • Meredith Whittaker reaffirms that Signal would leave UK if forced by privacy bill

  • It doesn't necessarily mean that. It could also be that they attempt to block the rise of new platforms, and by doing so limiting the amount of platforms that they have to compromise.

  • I think technically what they sell is services related to RHEL and not it itself (correct me if I'm wrong).To me at least, a big problem with it is the hypocrisy. RHEL started itself by repackaging another piece of software. Why is it not OK for others to do the same to them? Especially when the gpl license allows that, and requires them to allow that!

    The Linux license allows anyone to distribute it for profit (under certain conditions). If I wanted to sell CDs with the Linux kernel I could. Wouldn't be a good business, but I could.

  • The sad truth about Twitter’s rate limit

    Jump

  • Twitter's rate limit changes have led to the death of third-party apps like Apollo

    Apollo?

    Twitter implemented a rate limit to manage their infrastructure migration to Raspberry Pi

    Raspberry pi?

    Elon Musk is supposedly fighting against the CIA and NSA, who are using Twitter for censorship

  • The Current Challenges With Using Linux On Airplanes

    Jump

  • I doubt they run on windows tbh. If they take issue with with monolithic design of Linux, then windows would be an even bigger problem.

    Also, most of the devices in question are probably small controllers, incapable of running windows. (Microsoft are struggling to run it on arm so...)

  • Yeah, didn't get that one either.

  • That makes sense, and yeah I imagine the problem isn't the entertainment system.

    I just don't get the the last paragraph. I don't know if using Linux affects their code being OS or not. If they're just running it on top of Linux and not modifying it, it probably won't be a GPL violation to keep it closed.

  • https://www.linux.com/news/boeing-joins-the-elisa-project-as-a-premier-member-to-strengthen-its-commitment-to-safety-critical-applications/

    ELISA (Enabling Linux in Safety Applications) Project announced that Boeing has joined as a Premier member, marking its commitment to Linux and its effective use in safety critical applications. Hosted by the Linux Foundation, ELISA is an open source initiative that aims to create a shared set of tools and processes to help companies build and certify Linux-based safety-critical applications and systems

    I imagine this means they're contributing both actively and financially to Linux.

  • Support for modern standby on Ubuntu?

  • Thanks! Will look into it

  • Regarding section 1, won't you still get the conflicts when pushing to remote (or pulling from it)?

  • Is it just me, or does NixOS almost feel like a different operating system from Linux?

    Jump

  • More advanced in what way? (Excuse my ignorance)

  • Best Distro for Laptops?

    Jump

  • Some thinkpads have official support for Ubuntu by the manufacturer (lenovo), which means battery optimizations out of the box, amongst other things. Might be relevant for your laptop.

  • Linus Torvalds Takes On A Performance Patch: "I Relax By Playing With Inline Assembly"

    Jump

  • That's not being pretentious, that's being blunt. I personally as a dev, appreciate that.

    If you think the code can be improved you should say that, and exactly why that's the case. When you're mistaken you should be able to take the criticism.

    Your mission as a dev is to write the ideal code, and being overly polite can stand in the way of that.
