It was hard to miss, I was working there. It doesn't mean that much as you're assuming.
No. The way it should be is using a work-issue laptop at work, but provisioned by you.
IBM's vision
Anybody can have a vision, but it's the work that matters. I'll be worried when they become a player.
Software projects are dictatorships of those willing to put in the work, not meritocracies.
Most linux distros are slight variations on the best components available. Yes, one can put in resources, do a great job and now everyone switches to the fruits of their labor. No, it does nothing to stop another player from one-upping them and taking the lead with their next best good enough. In political terms, dictatorships are incompatible with voting with one's feet.
Congratulations, you've pretty much redefined "being a scam" to "being advertised". What gives?
How about we leave the word to the outrageous cases of actively preying on specifically targeted victims? Talking grandmas into devolve their credit card numbers, Ponzi schemes, sects or USA healthcare
scams. NFTs, car ownership, DPRK or USA
not scams, misadvertisement.
Extralegal ways of moving money are immensely useful to non-billionaires as well.
They said "rich country", not "a country of rich people".
NixOS: from where I am, you're indistinguishable
Resistive ones worked better with nails than wothout them.
As a Red Hat employee who had his all-around sensible Fedora Change to prevent it from falling too far behind RHEL (!) rejected, I think I can confidently claim that your statements smell of conspiracy theories.
Do Linux-involved companies have resources to develop the projects they like the most? Yes. Do companies dominate userspace development? I don't think so, in fact, they're all seem quite focused in their interests, and their involvement with a median package on your community distro desktop system isn't even minimal, it's none. Do the se companies at least all push for a united agenda? Absolutely not. Can they force a single random community distro like Debian to pick something over something else? No. 99% of the distros? Goes without saying.
Linux community is so inherently meritocratic that one can't meaninfully force anything upon any large group of them.
Thore particular two creations of Lennart took the world by storm precisely because they were so absurdly good that working on other stuff was a dead-end, obvious for all but such tiny fraction of people that even forming vacuous hate bubbles haven't rallied enough effort to foster and maintain alternatives.
It became trendy to hate Pulseaudio and call it bloat years after Nokia shipped a rather anemic phone where it already worked flawlessly. I need no further proof that there's no technical basis beneath the hate.
With 1 year and no second term they're just gonna steal everything within their reach from day 1, so we need to balance it with:
Then, maybe.
