The fact that this will not be remembered as part of Gate’s legacy makes my blood boil.

It looks like they are paying it back which was my biggest concern, and billet is defining the price here. Although according to his earlier response, LMG has yet to repay it.

That fuck up is still massive, downplaying it as a “charity auction” is shitty and makes this 120~ person company look like amateur hour.

I was mislead and because how linus worded it, thought this was at least arranged prior to the whole situation and that this was not a quote or invoiced. According to billet lab this was not the case and they had yet to set a price as of that second videos recording.

Microsoft also implemented the Wayland specification and it did zilch for adoption or growth of wayland. Let me put it another way, Chromebooks also adopted upstart and that has not had an impact on upstart use or adoption in the broader linux ecosystem.

Its more likely they’re gonna use work done for desktop linux with minimal if any contribution backwards to things we care about.

I think my issue with Mint is the small team maintaining the cinnamon fork that clearly can’t keep up with the desktop.

Otherwise mint is functionally Ubuntu. I preferred Debian for my stable stuff. I like arch currently because PKGBUILD was acomparatively easy package format to learn and modify. Rolling is nice but I’ve used Debian extensively as well.

Minor correction.
15 out of 15 requests were of black people. 14 of those requests were black men and 1 was a black woman.

Incredible
