schestowitz | The PS3 and PS4 are both using modified FreeBSD, they should have been able to use ext4 or btrfs or something.

schestowitz | Read this article through again, and while reading it think to yourself "this guy is angry at microsoft, this is anti-microsoft propoganda". | Jul 09 00:36 |
schestowitz | Just as an experiment - then you might see what I saw. Yes, valid points are made. Yes Patient law is evil, but this sounds like the kind of "M$ are satan" rants of the 1990's, the rants that stopped when we saw the face of apple - when we saw the heart of darkness! | Jul 09 00:36 |
schestowitz | But triumphent anti-apple fanatism aside, whining on about how terrible M$ are in todays age is pointless. They still own the desktop market, at their current rate of expansion, mobile phones are going to be theirs too. | Jul 09 00:36 |
schestowitz | If they filed a patient, let them keep it - we can't fight M$, so we have to work around them.... in that 0.9% share of the desktop market that is Linux - that tiny little fragment of a persentage point that M$ don't care about - unless we touch their precious patients. | Jul 09 00:36 |
schestowitz | ' | Jul 09 00:36 |
schestowitz | "This is not about the desktop in particular. While Linux is small on the desktop it's the most widely used OS on the planet - by far. I have no doubt that when Windows is a distant memory Linux is still going strong. It has proven to be resilient to all attacks but it hasn't been so by being complacent, it has succeeded by being consistent and vigilant. So this guy may come off as a zealot but the case he's making is still sound. We need | Jul 09 00:36 |
schestowitz | to continue to fight for a better more open world and this is just one little skirmish at the outskirts of the empire." | Jul 09 00:36 |
schestowitz | "Nothing killed the concept of Linux better than Android did. Microsoft is trailing behind that damage." | Jul 09 00:37 |
schestowitz | "The concept of Linux is to be a kernel that works well and is free. How was that killed by Android?" | Jul 09 00:37 |
schestowitz | Wow, the spin never ends | Jul 09 00:37 |
schestowitz | inciting Linux against Android again? | Jul 09 00:37 |
schestowitz | "Replacing the traditional userland with the Java-based abomination, and increasingly placing functionality into the proprietary Google Play Services framework. Also fostering a culture of devices where it is the exception rather than the norm to actually comply with the GPL, and where most devices are essentially Tivo-ized anyway." | Jul 09 00:37 |
schestowitz | " | Jul 09 00:37 |
schestowitz | So home router manufacturers killed the concept of Linux way before Android. | Jul 09 00:37 |
schestowitz | Android using Linux means one thing: Linux is used in a commercial product. This does not kill any concept. | Jul 09 00:37 |
schestowitz | Linux is also not tied to any specific userland. It is traditionally shipped with the GNU userland on desktop machines but we are not talking about these here. | Jul 09 00:37 |
schestowitz | Also fostering a culture of devices where it is the exception rather than the norm to actually comply with the GPL | Jul 09 00:37 |
schestowitz | I'm still not sure about your reasoning here. Linux implies stuff that is not related to Linux should be GPL? | Jul 09 00:37 |
schestowitz | " | Jul 09 00:37 |
schestowitz | " | Jul 09 00:37 |
schestowitz | No, as there are tons of companies that won't release the kernel sources that are covered under the GPL. | Jul 09 00:37 |
schestowitz | Feel free to use http://www.softwarefreedom.org/ if have any company that violates the GPL at hand. | Jul 09 00:37 |
-TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-www.softwarefreedom.org | Software Freedom Law Center | Jul 09 00:37 | |
schestowitz | Most companies I am aware of release the sources. Since these sources are most of the time the least interesting bit (the magic is in the custom drivers / firmware blobs) this does not help much though. | Jul 09 00:37 |
schestowitz | Sure a lot of home routers have the same problem, but I think Android phone/tablet usage and modding leaves many more users impacted than those who want to flash their consumer level routers. | Jul 09 00:37 |
schestowitz | If the goal is freedom, I would say it is approximately the same number of people since approximately everyone who owns an android phone has access to the internet at home (and therefore a router). The amount of people modding their android phones is still small compared to the device count. | Jul 09 00:38 |
schestowitz | So in essence, Android killed nothing, especially no concept of a kernel. Android under Google was never a system designed to be free in all aspects and it was clear from the beginning that Google wants to integrate it into its mostly proprietary infrastructure. This has nothing to do with Linux, Java or Android. It has to do with how most businesses work today. | Jul 09 00:38 |
schestowitz | " | Jul 09 00:38 |
schestowitz | "Because when we say Linux, we actually mean GNU. When I use "Linux", I interact with GNU userland. So, Android is something completely different." | Jul 09 00:38 |
schestowitz | " | Jul 09 00:38 |
schestowitz | I strongly disagree here. Android made it necessary for producers of hardware to make them work with Linux. This means that it has opened the way for better compatibility, it has also shown other companies that Linux presents big business opportunities. It takes time to cash in on this but it is happening. | Jul 09 00:38 |
schestowitz | The advantage of Linux (compared to proprietary projects) is that even with a longer route to market it still has a high chance of being a profitable strategy. So big companies (and small) are working on Linux based offerings of all kinds. If you think of this development as an exponential process it's already gone past the inflection point and is about to explode. | Jul 09 00:38 |
schestowitz | " | Jul 09 00:38 |
schestowitz | "There's loads of new stuff at Microsoft at the moment, like terrible haircuts." | Jul 09 00:38 |
schestowitz | "There went my hopes, back to Google (implying that google is any better)" | Jul 09 00:38 |
schestowitz | "Just don't run chrome on hardware with a microphone and you'll be fine?" | Jul 09 00:38 |
schestowitz | " | Jul 09 00:38 |
schestowitz | You still trust any tech company? | Jul 09 00:38 |
