It's not. They give you a 1.0 binary, they have to give you the source to 1.0. You can share that 1.0 GPL source or do whatever the GPL allows with it, and RedHat is fully within their rights to terminate your support contract and not offer you updated 1.2 binaries. Nothing in the GPL says you can't sell it, or once you sell someone a GPL work you must always make future versions available. So if they don't sell it to you they don't have to give you the source. You're within your rights to share the GPL source and not tell RedHat.

OL is a RHEL clone not Fedora, they're bound by the GPL, which still allows it.

Oracle Enterprise Linux didn't do anything that CentOS wasn't already.

Bug for bug compatible is exactly what the RHEL compatible kernel should be, and they provide their own kernel (UEK) you conveniently left out, which is a back port of upstream kernel patches to their own supported baseline. Whatever, you'll probably say that's "just the kernel" it's pointless. No, they didn't reinvent RPM which somehow makes them evil .. and we don't talk about CentOS. Or the obvious fact that the changes and buy and kill of CentOS happened post-IBM. Whatever.

Hate Oracle all you want, but Oracle Linux is solid, always has been. Free, and free security updates. Oracle had just broken up with Sun and wasn't looking to get into bed with another OS vendor, that's all it was.

Right to repair is a dumb name but I'm sorry, ownership is even dumber, and it sets a lower bar. You break it, you own it, that was easy! ... that's not what you want.

Right to repair actually means - without breaking the warranty or support agreement, plus the availability of tools and documentation, at least for independent repair shops. It doesn't necessarily have to be easy or cheap because many things are too specialized.

If you want to buy a gray market commercial oven and grab a wrench, you own full responsibility for it working. That's ownership, you have that already. But yes, right to repair is a stupid name for a different reason - these are not natural rights.

Reading between the other poster's lines, the path from 168 CPUs to 3500 CPUs runs straight through "let's rewrite everything as microservices".

I get you though, it's not containers ... but it is the containerization.

A container is just a disk image and a sandboxed process. When the image contains x86-64 ELF binaries expecting to make Linux syscalls, how are you going to run that on a different kernel, on an ARM processor. There are some very sophisticated ways of doing that, translating the instruction sets like Apple's Rosetta, emulating a foreign kernel interface like Microsoft's WSL1, and _they_ certainly could put all that together, for laughable definitions of "lightweight" and "efficient", but _you_ would use a virtual machine.

This is the kind of idiocy that gives "devops" its reputation. You're probably balls deep in yaml templates solving some kubernetes networking shenanigans and you have the chutzpah to utter reality distortion field at someone else.

Apple is not in the habit of announcing things they don't ship, that's what's up. Some of what they announced at last year's WWDC they haven't delivered. I realize that's not even a problem for most companies but Apple has a good track record by keeping things secret until they can sell it.

Reread the summary, that's all it is. "AI" is the cause of the data center spending, Cisco updates products because of increased data center spend.

It sounds pretty boring but companies don't develop new products just for the fun of it. It's still Cisco.. but if they're looking at new products, maybe their competitors will too, and maybe there will be room for new startups to enter the market. It's interesting from that point of view.

It's like telling people pre-built furniture sucks because you can build anything with your hands. With a cherry on top explaining their decisions have robbed themselves of the experience of sanding down a piece of pine all because they'd rather sit on a couch. As if they couldn't at literally any time do both. Like grind away on a piece of wood right in your living room. Or open a terminal app to a virtual machine and go wild.

IDK, maybe it can be your hobby and not everyone's? Since you're being that melodramatic about it, do you even enjoy it or are you punishing yourself.

Easy to say, like the solution to crime is being nice to each other. Here's a story about equality for you.

The US military could meet its recruiting goals by focusing on the most populated areas, say California, Texas, New York, Florida. That would still fly under equality of opportunity, all are welcome, and it would make sense for efficiency. Higher population density, more kids, bigger schools, less spread out recruiting offices, etc.

The very predictable result of that would be states further out like Montana, Minnesota, Maine, Nebraska, a whole bunch of "minority" states would be very underrepresented. The act of identifying that fact and measuring it would offend a lot of fragile snowflakes, as if I just insulted what it means to be Texan by saying what about Kansas, because thinking about it might make them feel guilty and nobody should force you to think about anything, not ever. They'd spread lies about how kids up north or out west or over there just aren't motivated, there's a problem with their culture, it's their parents fault, it's the school's fault, etc. You would falsely frame it as picking states, forcing equal adoption, and project "everyone will think diversity Nebraskans are unqualified" and I'd tell you like I'm telling you now, that's thinly veiled bigotry and you know it.

That is not our system thankfully. The US military operates recruiting stations in every back woods state and travels to every podunk high school in every sparsely populated county. Marine recruiters will anyway, I can't speak for the others, they're probably too busy dealing with walk-ins to call you back. THAT's what equal opportunity looks like. They didn't just decide gee we should open and staff a whole recruiting station in bumfuck Montana for efficiency. They did it to make sure we have Montanans in our military. You might not see it as the four letter words diversity, inclusion, or equity but it is literally the most perfect example of it working successfully on a large scale. If you really think about the history of our country and its military, how it means something that every state participates, you'd see how important it is. That takes effort and even quotas to make it happen, and we're all better for it. Do you NEED quotas, IDK, not in all cases no, but it fucking works and it's not a bad word. Do you NEED to measure force composition by different demographics, uh.. probably, not always, again, why is that a bad thing. I'm not convinced if we cover our eyes shit will just work out, the Michiganders will just fucking show up, like you shouldn't even be checking.. and driving out to talk to them. You KNOW you would!

So when you tell me "all we need is equal opportunity"... please fucking explain how that actually works because I have the solution to crime that takes no effort too, let's all just get along mkay.

One on one tutoring works so everything else doesn't? Well you're highly regarded aren't you.

The rest of your rant is just ignorance of dialects and regional differences. English speakers in California, Texas, and Maine for example pronounce words quite differently. I bet you don't know what a tank means in Texas.

Look gav, I'm glad you found a boyfriend that speaks Spanish and you've had this great epiphany with what kind of learning works for you. You won't learn regional differences from a tutor. If your boyfriend is from Mexico City you're going to get a different experience than someone from YucatÃn probably. Like New York and Montana, you have to go there.

Enjoy your new friend and all, learn everything you can from him but learning lots of vocabulary is still a huge part of learning a language no matter how you slice it. You don't use a lot of the English you've learned over your life, it's how it works. Duolingo is great for that, it's gets people on the right track. You still always have to go places and talk to people, and nobody ever finishes learning.

This might come as a shock but there are regional differences INSIDE Mexico too. Just like there is all over the US.

You learn those by experiencing it, visiting different regions and talking to people, not from an app or a tutor. Nobody is suggesting otherwise either, just a bunch of bizarre strawman arguments.

Nintendo has excellent parental controls and that feature specifically can be disabled with a checkbox in the app. That's the first layer of defense. The next layer is being able to report abuse after it has happened.

Going to level with you dude, I have standards for putting someone on my red dot list here. There's some 45 to 47 items on this checklist I use, and all it means is I should read into what they have to say very closely and take my time responding. That's my personal way of supporting a diversity of viewpoints. When the red dots show up making bad faith arguments for "children's privacy", it's hard not to make connections, know what I mean?

You getting recorded picking your nose behind the Wendy's cash register must be embarrassing but that's not "1984 shit". If you can read, try the book sometime.

I have a problem with children broadcasting anything precisely because you can't control what anyone does at the other end. Your argument is like saying Twitch shouldn't record streams because there might be children in them. As if the problematic people watching children are dependent on the integrated reporting functionality... they are, on it being disabled! Or as if they're incapable of recording anything broadcast to them, they aren't. Which is why children shouldn't broadcast anything about themselves in the first place. Removing auditing or reporting functions isn't protecting children, it's protecting creeps. Fuck off.

Nintendo has excellent parental controls, there's an app that controls how long a switch can be used on what days, you can restrict specific features, grant exceptions or time limit increases, reports on usage by game/day/month etc.

There are specific settings for "communicating with others" and "posting screenshots/videos to social media". I'm sorry but creeps are going to record or save whatever they receive anyway, that is really a stupid argument to disable the ability for people to report abuse, as if pedos don't know how to record on their own. Nintendo is really really good at what they do.
