No, you're right.
Complete assholes run the world.

It's not about brains, obviously, it's about aggressively bullying people into doing what you want. It's never been different and it's never been a secret.
Only difference between now and back in the days of Saddam Hussein, is that they used to just blow your head off if you failed to do their bidding, but now even Trump and Musk just fires you and you end up selling your real estate to pay your legal bills. So much more civilized.

Yeah, but I'm gonna say nobody asked Joe to write code for free .. he has his reasons .. example rosegarden midi sequencer .. I do some testing for it, the lead programmer and I go back and forth ... we're musicians .. it's driven by "passion".. for sure no money is involved .

But I think the larger issue , if opensource was somehow administered by an oversight body, how would it not turn into a shitshow like Mozilla, for instance? Or look how systemd was planted into good sw, Debian, and now the most popular Linux distros are embraced, extended, and extinguished by corporate overlords. I can't see that model being able to exist untainted.

It's the end of the world and people party and you know fuck thier brains out, lots of drinking and drugs too.. so based on current hysteria I'm willing to accept that mass consumption of hallucinogens is a better place to be than ... ugh ... doctors? AYFKM?
No. Straight line to corporate profits and easy exploitation of vulnerable willing people. Keep doctors way way away.

And don't drive when you do hallucinogens.

don't use Kubernetes?

I'm admittedly not knowledgeable on Kuberwhatever, but I always look to reduce dependencies. Talked to a few techies I know in the middle of corporate servitude, the opinion was split on whether K was really and truly useful vs. really and truly just a dependency trap for lazy devops.

layers and layers of moving parts = more vulns, IMHO

I've heard your argument of 'you just can't do that with sysvinit', but no one has ever done more than state that superficially ... bringing up networks in a specified order is the main argument I've heard, but I run multi homed systems with sysvinit on devuan, and don't have any problems ... help me out here . Explain to me what specific use cases that only systemd can do?
