    they did not "just announce" that, it was a rather technical decision several layers down, made a while ago. Sure, some things are not easily created without US companies but the o…

    It's probably only funny because the commenting germans are aware that there is a much simpler "UG" (without the &co KG), which is pretty much a LLC, which you can open on your own…

    Jetbrains gives away for free infinity years of a $180+ per year subscription (its more expensive in the first year or for orgs)[1] for open source authors, students, and more. Sur…

    This sounds like your update process is quite involved then. Or do you just not do it?

    Tbh Arch itself is the most explicit about this compared to the derivatives. Manjaro etc allow installing AUR stuff directly from their main package manager

    As someone who tried rerere and didn't see the point: How? Usually I rebase the same branch multiple times onto different, but successive commits of the master branch. But after I …

    Why can't stores take over the "verification" process (like they do already)? Why do app developers have to be verified themselves, why does the verification have to be done by goo…

    At what point will you draw the line between "the user wants to do this because of his/her free will" and "the user wants to do this because someone else told them to"? Where will …

    Re your last paragraphs: I think RMS really meant just the Linux kernel when he wrote that(the topic is drivers, after all), not GNU/Linux, the OS or GNU/Linux, "the system". So it…

    Ok, then I don't pay you for advertising. On an entirely unrelated note, could I buy a spot on your website(e.g. at the top) to put a piece of my own website on it? You have a news…

    I "solved" this by adding a fail2ban rule for everyone accessing specific commits (no one does that 3 times in a row) and then blocking the following ASs completely (just too many …
