auzy , to nostupidquestions in Why is Kamala Harris being held at such a higher standard than Trump this election?

I keep seeing the same bozos say they’re the same

One is literally a criminal rapist who has made tens of thousands of public lies, doesn’t pay contractors, and said obvious non sensensical stuff during covid leading to mass deaths and whose own ex staff warns he is an asshole.

The other is a normal person you could probably eat lunch with. She’s absolutely normal.

auzy , to news in ‘Could Have Been The Parents’: Trump Tries to Shift Blame For Campaigning At Arlington Scandal, Claims Was a ‘Setup’

Yeah. But a legal document in writing at least would acknowledge that he knew.

He is also infamous for denying that he had knowledge of dodgy events

Mafia boss strikes again

Anyone dealing with Trump and his team should get them to sign agreements.

Sadly, that agreement needs to include both sexual, verbal and physical assault it seems

Smoking companies still are with vaping (vaping companies literally sell to kids over the Internet and people literally are arguing it’s safe and healthy)

Which unfortunately shows that people don’t learn

auzy , to technology in Microsoft donates the Mono Project to the Wine team

Again, you do realise Mono was started by the same guy who founded Gnome right?

auzy , to news in Trump Says He’s ‘Absolutely’ Down To Put ‘Unusual Character’ Elon Musk in His Cabinet: ‘We Have To Cherish Our Geniuses’

If he wants geniuses, maybe he should look at university professors (who likely all hate him)… Maybe he should start by not giving them reasons to hate him (like maybe do something to stop shootings at Schools and universities?)

auzy , to technology in Microsoft donates the Mono Project to the Wine team

What people don’t realize, is that Miguel de Icaza actually started gnome and mono.

Xamarin got acquired by Microsoft.

I’m so tired of watching the community crap on every company which donates open source (I’ve been watching for 25 years at least now). Even Redhat which basically is a major factor to the survival of Linux is getting crapped on. Systemd developers, etc.

If people are genuinely interested in Linux growing, they need a positive community. Because developers like myself mostly stopped providing free code (as a hobbyist developer) because whilst finding help is difficult, it’s not hard to find people willing to abuse you and your projects unfortunately

Even the VLC developers can’t escape the abuse

auzy , to technology in Microsoft donates the Mono Project to the Wine team

The guy who started mono also started gnome you realize.

More likely he influenced this decision

auzy , to technology in Microsoft donates the Mono Project to the Wine team

Mate. I don’t even use Windows anymore lol

And I started a few open source projects and contributed to a lot of them.

This is why Linux still isn’t gaining market share because for 25 years I’ve been watching the community scare off developers and treat them like crap. It happens constantly.

You’re not giving anyone any incentive to assist

In all likelihood they donated this code because it doesn’t benefit them anymore or became a burden. The developers aren’t sitting there thinking “mmm, this is gonna make us so popular”.

Did you know the guy who stayed mono is actually the guy who started gnome? They got acquired by Microsoft.

auzy , to technology in Microsoft donates the Mono Project to the Wine team

How does this help open source?

I’m not sure how the community has grown to be so toxic recently that it becomes risky to release a product as open source, and we’re losing opportunities. This has huge benefits to projects like wine

Are you guys suggesting they should retract the offer and close source everything?

auzy , to technology in Microsoft donates the Mono Project to the Wine team

It doesn’t mean there is some evil plan either 😂

You’ll find that developers in these companies tend not to care so much about politics either.

Like I used to sell apple gear. The sales people were political. When I went to a developer conference, the developers were absolutely upfront about everything and normal people

auzy , to technology in Microsoft donates the Mono Project to the Wine team

I agree actually. They’re not giving ANYONE incentive to donate to open source, and that mirrors my own experience where the community were asses to me too for my own project (which got lots of publicity including international print media, frontpage slashdot, etc. But after putting up with trolls telling me to do it a different way and calling it crap I dumped it. Fortunately a major distro had a similar idea at the same time and implemented. And thats a distro these same guys have also shat on honestly over the years.

People turned on Redhat too fairly quickly, and they donated a metric ton of code. And my experience in a lot of open source projects honestly is that on most of them, the community contributes next-to-nothing. Canonical too… SystemD? Constantly getting attacked.

it’s why I personally stopped creating my own projects.

If the community stopped using code from these companies they constantly crap on, I think they would be surprised just how little of linux is left (like Wayland is by a Redhat Developer, and Keith Packard from Xorg worked at HP).

And somehow, there is always some weird conspiracy too. Like even releasing Windows 1.0 source code would be something Microsoft does to try to trick linux users or whatever lol

auzy , to technology in Microsoft donates the Mono Project to the Wine team

In my experience, generally the most vocal contribute the least lol

auzy , to technology in Microsoft donates the Mono Project to the Wine team

Do you think they’re going to ask for this one back? 😂

Whatever it is, it benefits the community.

What price tag do you think is attached to this one?

Things can be beneficial to both parties… Not everything corporations do need to screw someone else 😂
