@krysztophe We have a winner here :). Congrats. The user was a bit surprised.... And will read the documentation better next time.

@gruber GDPR does:
• Require active consent before tracking

GDPR does not:
• require interstitials or popups before viewing a web page

DMA does:
• limit the ability for companies that have a monopoly (or near monopoly) in one market from using that position to unfairly advantage them in another

DMA does not:
• “effectively ban” a social media app

Bad implementations by people who don’t care about users ≠ bad legislation

The elephant in the room nobody talks about when discussing the #RHEL changes is the reliance of so many applications and users on a "stable" "enterprise" release because they're themselves to under-resourced to do the work to keep up with the actual speed of #OpenSource development.

My problem with the software dev profession in 2023

Everybody should watch this #LedByDonkeys clip: Water Privatisation is a con. A complete, utter con. We should just get rid of all this - nobody benefits but rich investors

This is the first of, probably, many posts about the changes to how Red Hat distributes RHEL sources, RHEL clones in general. Not to mention the past, present, and future of FOSS development and business.
