Saying anyone was removed "no-questions-asked" is not correct. The board asked many questions over the course of its investigation into the matter. And they just today held an annu…

If you use GNOME, you have inherent trust in that administration as the governing body for the software on your computer. Outside of explicitly checking every line of code and then…

Exactly. The only thing which might prevent Sonny from explaining the situation is the pending resolutions, which means that no party can comment on the ongoing situation. Realisti…

Suggesting that the aggrieved party is fictional is, indeed, criminal libel.

The fundamental difference here is that this isn't a court of law deciding justice, it's a private organization deciding who is allowed to participate and under what grounds someon…

CoC violations — particularly ones egregious enough to warrant removal from a project — often involve topics of a highly sensitive nature regarding events which could potentially r…

They also semi-affected #system76. I still have ops in the ACL, but there was a new ## opened (which is invite-only) and they added themselves to the ACL.

The very first concepts of Pop were like this, but since then the OS has grown to be much more complicated than that. There are some fundamental system configuration changes that m…

You place a lot of faith on the ability of US-based companies to resist control by the US Government.

Compromising the PCBA is not reasonable attack, if you trust the company you're buying the hardware from. Their engineers will review the delivered hardware and ensure that the del…

Accepting external contributions is not a requirement of either Open Source or Free Software, and enforcing such a requirement is explicitly contra to the spirit of Free Software. …

Thats only like 3mph max...

The first two trips are nearly half a decade apart...

I need x-much gas to go 100 km... Seems pretty intuitive to me.

The kind of people who are worried about the image driving a truck will project upon them simply don't buy trucks. They'd rather buy a model Y or a Model X anyway.

Careful with your anecdotes.
