Ah, the late 1900s when you could still pretend that Apple was the choice of the counterculture for no credible reason except for Apple marketing. Slacktivism, my dude. Worthless.

This meme is truly ancient. I bet those little iMacs go for a pretty penny on eBay now after everyone tossed them in the garbage circa 2003.

Microsoft loves open source nowadays.

People do a huge amount of their work for free.

They’re also heavily invested in Linux for the cloud. So any work done there helps them.

With Microsoft, any love shown could well be the Embrace part of the strategy that will lead to Extend and then Extinguish just as soon as they can figure those parts out. They might already have a plan.

The fact they've been able to turn things to their advantage so far does not mean they don't have such a plan. Or won't ever have one.

Holy shit, this is an old old meme. This image has got to be at least 25 years old

You wouldn’t download the means of production!

Talk shit on FOSS, by comparing it to communism like it’s a bad thing, on Lemmy.

Now there’s a message this place will love, lol.

Cowbee ,

It’s clearly a red scare parody.

I was just thinking about why many things on Linux are better. Like the install process on Linux is years ahead of windows.

Then it occurred to me that windows only improves things that can make them money. If you need to install windows, then you can deal with the crappy installer.

Linux devs improve the parts they think need to be better. The decisions are not guided by money and can be made without bias.

Now that you’ve got the idea apply it to everything in capitalist society. Especially if something is owned by shareholders.

Anyone know how I can program Anarchism?

Allow all code merges automatically

Anarchy is not absence of rules, it’s absence of hierarchy. So you could still collectively agree to certain rules for merges.
