This is the contentious part and also why I left Fedora.

Don't get me wrong, you'll be hard pressed to find a better community, better support or even a more innovative bunch. Besides RedHat's involvement, Fedora has been in the vanguard for desktop technologies like PipeWire, Flatpaks, Wayland, heck they were one of the first to push systemd.

But my problem is that since RedHat holds sway over the Fedora leadership we cannot guarantee that the community will have the users best interests at heart.

So when people say "use a community distro", they mean a non-captured one.

And again; Fedora is awesome, the community is awesome, been using it for years, but switched to NixOS like a month ago because I don't trust the direction RedHat/IBM is taking Fedora.

Most likely they'll push some of these projects to Fedora, make them maintain the projects, then some years down the line sell those projects as apart of their service.

There is a conflict of interest here and a clear opportunistic angle. RedHat wants to use the Fedora community as a free of charge testing grounds, in effect creating a userbase of free QA testers for future software.

This is predatory, it is an insult to the community, but the community is captured, and therefore will play ball with RedHat. This is the problem. If the community would give some assurances and protections, that would be nice, but so far it seems the Fedora community is more than willing to play ball with IBM/RedHat.

High rate of male suicide, high adoption of men in far right ideology. Why do you think that is? Because every other male than you is a weak specimen and you're such a renaissance man?

Also your statement was anecdotal and dismissive, so we'll scratch the renaissance part.

Thanks. Real constructive.

About what? About the sky high rate of male suicide, or the high rate of males going into far right ideology?

This is a proxy to anti-NATO sentiment. NATO isn't perfect, has made mistakes and even has been abused as a power structure, but compared to Russia or China? My gawd. No concern for human life, whatsoever.

If it's about a lesser of two evils, NATO is much less evil.

Seems like a lot of these "performance enhancing features" simply ignored security principles or tried to sidestep them, only for the features to introduce glaring security hole in the overall ISA, forcing people to then sidestep the supposed performance features so that it never mattered to begin with.

Are Intel, AMD and others pulling a fast one on us for the sake of gaining positive benchmarks?

Mmm, so refreshing...

...I helped the unibomber.

Oh snap.

Det stiller jo bare spørsmålet: hvem ligger i hvem sine lommer? Å ha blind tillit om sånt leder til sosial paranoia og det vil skade samholdet.

Bass ackwards. They're already in a war, i.e corruption in the military should actually be punishable by death. Where firing squad?

The less that is said about Spanish banking, the better. But let's just say that if you want to hide money and transactions, Spain is sort of an epicenter for that here in Europe. Like large suathes of crash? Cayman Islands. Obsfucating and fuzzing transactional data? Spain - all the way.

Also, Caixa bank is just awful.

So another crazy Christian couple who want to stockpile orphans and foster children to prop up their church ledger? Prepare for indoctrination, brain washing, physical violence, mental violence and the continued effort to prop up extremist church ledgers.
