firmware
unveils LibrePhone
aims to create a fully free and open mobile platform
So it doesn't actually exist? I cannot find any information about it at all.
Cue my lack of surprise when they realize there are no 5g compatible basebands with open firmware, and you can't practically make your own.
I will be even less surprised that they probably won't support 5g at all.

no TURN
In other words, it will be broken for a huge amount of users, namely those behind CG or symmetrical NAT on both sides.
FYI it's just perl 6, they changed the name
The problem is not that Linus does not understand the code
I think it depends on the definition of "understand" in this context. In my example I used the words "does not make sense", but I did not quantify what that meant.
It could be interpreted as making sense in the context of doing things in a way that's acceptable to him.
If that doesn't "make sense" to you either, feel free to insert whatever other wording gets your point across, but I think you understand what I'm trying to say, which is that I think there is still room to be much nicer than Linus currently is, without losing the intended effect, but at the same time also not angering near as many people for (IMO) unnecessary reasons.
I think it is very possible to speak plainly and even rather assertively without actually devolving into personal attacks and abusive tones, and I don't think it's too much to ask. I would even suggest that it would be better for everyone if we could all just be a little bit nicer.
Example from Linus:
This code is GARBAGE.
A better way to get the same point across:
This code does not make any sense to me.
This attitude is exactly why I try to stay away from Linux. Bring on the downvotes, I don't care.
I refuse to separate the art from the artist, which is what boycotting in general really is IMO.
It's like being gifted a haunted house. Technically the house is structurally sound, the design of the house itself is not a problem... but even just being outside around the house makes me feel uneasy. I don't like what happens on the inside OR the outside, and I just prefer to stay away from it.
Oh really? I didn't know that. Thanks for the info.
I don’t see many people talking about it.
Maybe because we have been doing it with DNS66 for 15 years now
Photoshop works fine for me in wine, no VM necessary, and performance is near native.
