He has a card for meeting with ambassadors which literally says, in short form, "sit down. Say hello. Answer questions. Leave".

He forgot how to stand on a bike. Hell, he forgets how to walk up stairs sometimes. Even walking on the ground, he sometimes ignores secret service instructions. He's 81. 81. And I'm getting flak for calling him out?

I can get people defending Greg abbot for being disabled, because that's not the point of his dilemma. This is different, because he is literally too old to be fit to serve.

Edit: I also never said anything about speech, where were you getting that from?

Fair enough, but raspberry pi (trading) Ltd is the one that's mostly in control.

Uh, no? It's the other way around?

Because that's the non-profit organization, not the for-profit business.

Raspberry pi's business sector (aka Raspberry Pi Trading) has never been non-profit. That's who is going for an ipo.

Raspberry pics community sector (aka the Raspberry Pi Foundation) is the non-profit, and will remain as such.

Edit: Here's my source.

No, this isn't a bad thing. It's a common misconception. Raspberry pi trading is going for an ipo. They've always been profit oriented. The raspberry pi foundation is still nonprofit, despite sharing some members.

Edit: Since people think I'm wrong, heres my source

Audacity -> Tenacity

This is all assuming that they make their own independent decisions (ie, not being lobbied) and that they actually care.

Just move out of that god-forsaken country anyways.

At least it teaches them to be resourceful and safe.
