Huh, Linux uses GPLv2? Does anyone have any info about why?

Edit: Found a video https://youtu.be/PaKIZ7gJlRU. Makes sense. Complete freedom to use and modify the software means freedom to use the software in a proprietary device with DRM, as long as you still give the changes to the public.

Right, so similar to locks? Usually can be easily bypassed if you know how, but it at least filters out the people who aren't determined enough to put in the effort.

I mean, I would've said the same about the mobile apps, but here we are.

Yeah for tech stuff stack exchange is the way to go. But if I'm looking for info on non-tech stuff, there's not really a site that I know of that has a bunch of general user submitted q&a. There's quora, but that's absolutely horrible.

Also even with stack exchange, the rules are a bit more strict there, low effort posts are uncommon which can mean you can't find some stuff there. Although usually there's some other forum you can find your answer on.

Right, but having a centralised search index thingy is better than none at all. Maybe there could be something where it's a joint effort from admins from many of the biggest servers, idk if that would work.

If this is about crowdstrike, idk if that quite applies here. I don't think anything really depended on crowdstrike falcon, it just had the ability to break every system it was installed on. If it stopped working but didn't crash the computers no one would care.

Ugh it's a goddamn hero shooter (they say it isn't but it sure looks like it to me). What made splitgate good was the simplicity. I'll still try this out, maybe they manage to make it good, but I don't have my hopes up.

I'm annoyed cause I was actually excited for this

Yeah, 1 hour standup is an oxymoron
