Fucking up the kernel at the source isn't going to do anything to things that already have a working one, just means they can't update it
Jonathan Lee
Jow Forums warned people. the Techies didn't try that hard during GG and still aren't doing much now. I say fuck'em. It is sad since I like computer and know some programming but weak people get weak results.
Landon Bailey
I'm reinstalling windows 7, enough with this open-source commie shit exploiting you people by making them work for free while people like Linus and Ted tso keep making millions.
Cameron Lewis
Okay, thanks for clearing that up. Curious if all the contributors collaborate on a different project if they could slap togother a knew kernal under a different project name? Is there copyright issues with the contributors using there previously submitted code to build a replica without CoC bs?
Ryder Lee
Windows 10 LTSB s free and pretty decent. Just reinstall every 90 days.
Better to burn it down rather than fall into the wrong hands. Sad
Luis Roberts
>Linux devs threaten to revoke entire histories of code commits in response to CoC controversy. Do you even understand how distributed verson control works?
>Techies didn't try that hard during AI came up at that time FYI
They won't succeed. The government will declare it a National Security apparatus and seize control of the code by EO - too much runs on it.
Linux lost, flat out. SJW's are literal termites who chew into any group that opposes centralized corporate control.
Owen Jenkins
Time to entertain the idea of moving to OpenBSD or something...
Benjamin Foster
If that happens, what do you think the consequences of that would be?

>The Jews were db enough to not put up a wall inside linux to keep their colored hair Pete from getting in and causing shit >Linix, literally the bedrock for everything might go nuclear internet wide now as revenge You can't make this shit up
Zachary Garcia
Absolutely nothing. Falls under Eminenet Domain. Reagan did similar during the Air Traffic Controllers strike, only he did it by overriding their ability to strike at all under the same pretext - national security.
Liam Brown
DO IT FAGGOTS
Logan Gonzalez
Little did the Jews knew that their backdoor wasn't the only backdoor in there.
Angel Green
has anyone announced a fork in response to this?
Blake Thomas
I'm saying, if your scenario were to play out, they'd have to get rid of the CoC or at least not enforce it the way it was written to be enforced, due to the first amendment
CoC was written by an insane tranny motivated by racist hate. He never accomplished anything and didn't get the attention he wanted from white people heading important projects so the CoC is his revenge.
I remember some years ago when a java coder revoked his code. He was an early adopter, and his code for something (I think padding a string), was such basic and root code, that practically everyone used it.
When his code disappeared, java crashed worldwide until it was fixed.
I hope coders DO revoke their code. Someone has to stand up the left nazis
Christopher Wright
this shit is fucking terrorism.it is straight up domestic terrorism. how much of this shit woukd endanger military networks and systems,id wager alot of them.these faggots need to be killed.
Adam Wright
Not at all. If I were sleazy and in government, I'd simply seize the code, declare National Security Emergency, pare off the CoC (as gov't hs no need of it, nor does major backbone supplier corporations) and redistribute it (minus the gov't stuff I didn't want seen of course) back to the old-but-conquered group to re-apply whatever CoC they wanted. Call it the Government Fork or whatever. Problem solved and the other developers are SOL. Then the major companies are no longer bound by the stupid CoC and everyone else is. You can even prepend a line of requirement in the redistribution license that dictates that no CoC applies to governmental groups or business entities to prevent them trying to strongarm you with it later.
Essentially, you tableflip the entire chessmatch.

>AI came up at that time FYI AI has been around for decades ya dumb fuck. It didn't just "come up".
Asher Ortiz

Thomas Smith
Why don't they all take their collective codes and make their own kernal, with blackjack and hookers?
William Cook
Why would anyone voluntarily subject themselves to the judgement of this ogrish hatemonger?
Dylan Ortiz
Fuck if I know
Jose Gomez
>actual linux coders may revoke all their code and fuck it all up on their way out This whole ordeal is quite sad, but to clear up a couple things: Authors can only rescind their code from new versions and they can't really "fuck it up" on the way out because anyone can audit their changes and/or stick with the latest version released before this shit started.
Jack Baker
Someone who was well-paid to do so would. That person is 100% a destroyer. There's not a feminine bone in his AGP fetish-riddled body.
David Martinez
you know what? forget the kernal
Ethan Rogers
insane warpigs will destroy Linux
Colton Carter
There is a legal argument, ie you wouldn't be able to use anything containing code from the people who go ham without risk of getting sued. Companies don't fuck with that.
Nicholas Howard
so what youre saying is install gentoo
Liam Ortiz
they only need to cut off the head of the snake and they win. It's always been an effective strategy to divide and conquer communities. The you tech people are simply fucked because you do not have the power to marginalize these people into obscurity. Communities should self censor at the first sign of ANYONE attempting this.
Isaac Morales
Anytime you get a license from the goverment, they can threaten it or revoke at will. Clinton did the same to American Airlines pilots, didn't fuck them nearly as hard as Reagan though.
Brandon Rogers
>code that can be audited to make sure there's no government spyware is communist >pozzed proprietary Software™ with government spyware is better Hi NSA.

Liam Powell
As far as I'm concerned (although I never really checked the possibilities to revoke code), it is impossible. At best, they can fork it and do with it what they want. But the rest seems two be a typical Jow Forums HAPPENING nonsense.
At any rate, anyone who doesn't like it may create their own Linux with blackjack and whores.
Hunter Cook
Isn't a lack of current, relevant drivers a crippling failure of OpenBSD?
BSD is just a pain in the ass, no one gives a fuck about random drivers cause it isn't desktop it is all server shit. CentOS is pretty much the standard corporate OS of choice.
Lincoln Wilson
Bump thanks for the perseverance. I know they keep fucking over this thread.
If it gets stupid, it will quickly get forked by someone like Redhat and they will just continue from there. Everyone runs redhat or centos anyway, it won't be put up with very long before they cut them out, this is corporations that care about linux mostly, they have a lot to lose from it.
Dominic Wright
So basically (((they))) created a win win situation Two outcomes >linux contributers pill kill switch and ruin linux or >tranny devs push a flawed update that's compromised and ruin linux
Aiden Martin
>muh false dichotomy
Or someone with a vested interest in linux, like all of corporate america, builds a consortium and just forks it off, then takes over maintaining. Linux runs fucking everything, corporations have too much to lose to deal with horseshit, all this tranny retard is doing is making it unhirable.
Carter Young
Imagine despising yourself so much that you would pay a large sum of money and endure a life of suffering to have your balls cut off and your bowel sectioned into a vaginal wound. Now imagine how much you would despise yourself when you realize that the men you are attracted to could only be repulsed by your mangled genitals if they could get past the fact you look like a fat guy in drag. Literally a 0/10 on any man's attactiveness scale.
Then you realize that sexual attractiveness is the ultimate meritocracy, based on physical attributes and social reputation. So instead of killing yourself, you focus all your hatred onto the white men you yearn for, to show them that meritocracy is wrong. In the vain hope that one of them will think "hey a hole's a hole" and give you a pity fuck.
Grayson Williams
When will people learn that women are purely evil? How long will it fucking take?
Robert Sullivan
Our world is rotted to the core. From the ashes of the purge, a new internet will be born.
Burn it all down, and the true pioneers will succeed
who gives a shit?! let them kill Linux we will all use TempelOS then
Jace Evans
Never mind. I just read the article.
Thomas Morgan
I hope so because that's what you get for buying something from an SJW company.

So you cucks let one (1) tranny fuck your kernel? KEK
Jaxon Baker
The tranny is a frontman for (((something much bigger)))
Isaiah Reed
can we use our collective forces to meme this with meme magic?
Kevin Robinson
WTF I love Windows now
Oliver Brown
yeah I mean isn't that obvious? It would basically have the same effect as the kernel maintainers ceasing to work on it. Exploits and bugs wouldn't get patched and the project would get stale.
Is this what they see when they look in the mirror? Seriously, do they think they pass?
Thomas Young
being a man pretending to be a woman should be a bigger warning imho
Christian Gomez
they can change their licence of their contributions and the linux project can't use their code legally.
Blake Morris
Attractiveness to men is a meritocracy.
Charles King
>Linus Torvalds forced out of Linux by daughter + small clique For all his posturing about being a standard finnish boss who is strict and harsh, seems like he was a total bitch when it came to his family life. He let his daughter get influenced by SJWs instead of giving a good finnish upbringing for her.
Chase Lee
Yes anything with the linux kernel could face 1) receiving no updates + assuming legal risk, or 2) having to change it all out for another kernel which is an immense task
Michael Rivera
Legally companies would have to pay damages, its a liability for businesses moreso.
Josiah Perry

Why can't they just ignore the coders.
They can't do anything if they are thrown out of the building. Ignore their copyright or whatever
Thomas Barnes
How can someone be so mad at people for ignoring politics and just doing their job? Do we have to inject politics into everything or else we're privileged?
