Lol no

Universally hated.

They did a survey recently.

The only reason I feel like anyone Here in Australia likes him is due to brainwashing by sky news (Murdoch media).

The next Trump presidency might be permanent position.. don't forget he congratulated one head of country once for becoming a dictator

Yeah. With insecure blokes.

I'm straight (never been gay), but here in Australia these are the same guys who think the car you drive affects whether you're gay or not.

Which unfortunately means they must keep up with the latest fashionable trends to remain straight and masculine.

The hilarious thing is that the biggest badasses I've met (who do rock climbing and high altitude mountaineering) never seem to care about the car they drive. In fact, a lot of their cars would inherently be classed as LGBTIQ. They might even be surprised to know one of the most masculine people I know is gay ๐Ÿ˜‚

Also, they regularly cause issues in my hiking group too.. but if you ask them if they want to take over guiding, they never will.

Y'all are all welcome in Australia. The Rock climbing community here is actually very lgbtiq friendly

And it would be great if we could get less toxic people here

Didn't Arnie admit to using steroids at the time?

Yes.. Similarly, there are lots of browsers that failed too.. KHTML for instance is what Chrome and safari was based off..

They have a huge number of projects they tried.. Including their own mobile phone OS which they were actively shipping (it's a pity it didn't survive, would have been nice to have a 3rd OS)

It's really a risk / time payoff here. The reality is, when you see projects like this, there are 20 more which fail.

When you have limited resources, things like Firefox VPN actually make sense, because its low risk (there's a lot of competitors, but its fast to implement).

An office suite takes a huge amount of resources, and is a lot of work.

VPN's do have their uses. But, I agree.. 99% of it is scum marketing

If someone is a bad person, they deserve to get remembered as such

There's so many bullies out there who suddenly get a free hall pass when they die. Some of their victims aren't lucky

If you want to be remembered fondly after death, be a good person whilst you're alive. It's not difficult

He was possibly even shot by a right wing voter.

He's promised suffering at a minimum to women and immigrants (so the majority of the population).

He's raped women and I suspect he'll fire the last few supreme justice judges who don't agree with him. Don't forget, his only running to avoid prison at this time. They're the only ones who can override him and put him in prison

But even any sensible ring wing person doesn't want a dictator in charge. It just riles up the crazies who still believes him

Getting shot doesn't give anyone any real reason to vote for him. Only the marginal population.

I am still silently confident Biden will win, but i now his safety is seriously at risk, and I suspect this will now end in civil war during election

I guess Trump will have to decide how much golf he wants to play from now on. I can't imagine secret service wants him standing in an open field anymore

Yeah. Maybe I'm just old (I'm 40).

I would be happy to donate. But, the reality is.. donations don't work in my experience. One of my projects went FrontPage on all the major tech sites (and even was mentioned in Linux format magazine).

I got $300 in donations.

$250 was from a person I knew...

Backend projects often get screwed more, and I guess you probably need to hope you get supported by companies like Redhat ultimately. This may be why in my case. But backend projects always have people dissing them (frontend projects just need to look good and markety)

I think what's more important is that it's open source to be honest. We're actually lucky we still have Mozilla honestly.

In Mozilla browser days (after Netscape), id imagine it would have been a struggle to get a good pay. The people still there I suspect took a massive risk, and could have moved to lots of other companies like Google instead quite easily

I think they deserve to get rewarded..

What have you checked out or audited specifically?

In the open source projects I started and worked with, nobody really helped. In fact, one of ours was a fork of a commercial open source project. Ironically enough, if they were closed source they would have survived Longer...

DevFS was a core Linux component. And nobody wanted to maintain it, so it got depreciated before a replacement was even available (udev eventually, but it was totally unusable at the time).

Are you using openbsd? That is fully audited apparently

Everyone talks about looking at the code, but in practice, it's disappointing most people don't. I wish this wasn't true.

The best Access points on the market are not fully open source I'm fairly sure. But the best Access points have a lot of developers who ensure qa on your behalf

What matters is the resources put towards it. A lot of high end routers have full service contracts that guarantee security and support.

Just because something is open source, especially if it's embedded hardware, doesn't mean it's easy to debug and recompile.

Rich guy?

Presumably that is about Mitchell Baker.. A woman.. who was there since the beginning when the company was failing.....

The new CEO is also a woman and a temp CEO, who I'm guessing will again be replaced by an existing employee. Which guy are you referring to?

What browser projects are you assisting with or donating to?

Are you assisting with any open source projects at all?

The biggest problem with the oss community is that as a developer, you need to accept always that you'll get treated like absolute dirt by the community.

One of my projects went FrontPage on many major Linux sites, and I ended up dropping it because I got tired of the abuse.

You'll get plenty of people contributing nothing to your project or competing ones, but they'll tell you the 50 different ways you suck

I donated back when Firefox was in beta. They were a dying company back then.

Are you saying open source developers shouldn't be rewarded at all?

The only professional use of ddwrt I've seen is Macca's guest access.... It's an awesome project.. but...

If you're serious, you actually use enterprise grade products with guaranteed support. You don't build your own APs. Literally, no company I know does that ๐Ÿ˜‚ .

Perfect example of why oss doesn't guarantee anything, is devFS which was a core component of Linux was depreciated before a replacement even existed. There were no maintainers despite it being critical to Linux

There are major core Linux projects which are being maintained by only 1 or 2 people.

Parts of xorg also only have 1 or 2 people in the world who understand the code apparently.

I've never seen Linksys installed at any high density jobs . And I don't think I will.

They've been sold to 3 different companies in 20 years. It's generally not a good indicator if network companies are happy to sell their child companies to competitors lol

But yes, the wrt54g 20+ years ago was a stroke of genius. It wasn't the best router available, but it definitely changed the hobbyist market

I don't think it's staged.

He's f'ed up so many lives and brought racism back that it's a surprise it took so long

He's promised to be a dictator. But, he's more than that

He's Hitler 2.0 and he has also promised that immigrants will suffer too

Any other NUC 12 Enthusiast users out there. Just wondering if any of you guys are still successfully using it on the latest distro's with ARC support, or whether rebooting still has issues for more than anyone but myself (just picked one of these up the other day, and I suspect there are recent regressions maybe)
