Uh huh. Funny how many self-righteous people never seem to appreciate the concept of DARVO.

Let me know when you’ve got something more interesting to say besides childishly commenting, “Nuh UH. I’m right because I say so.”

Same reason you’re incapable of not having the last word.

The Internet Dickwad theory has been around quite a while. It’s not a giant mystery.

Sure, kiddo. Whatever gives you that dopamine hit for being yet-another random internet douchecanoe.

“Hurr hurr… I’m right and I’ve decided you’re wrong because reasons. I’m not going to engage with anyone because everyone rejects my assertions that I’m right and everyone else is wrong.”

Uh huh. Real nuanced perspective you got there.

Sounds like a self-defeating argument. So glad I could stand by while you beat on that straw man for a while. Feeling better after that li’l display, champ?

Says the Luddite without an argument…

You do not realize how many businesses operate every single day and make plenty of money on suboptimal code.

Industrial scale everything does not care, so long as the job gets done and the invoice is paid.

Just like with every other profession made obsolete by technology, the 80% case won’t need your bespoke, hand-crafted, artisanal assembly. There will still be minority cases who will pay a premium for it. And plenty of people will still program as a hobby or for their local community. But industrial scale software will be written by bots.

Because the world runs on good enough. No matter how many elitist neckbeards get butthurt in the process.

Uh oh. The ice carvers are complaining about the evils of refrigeration again…

This kind of problem is going to require some deep debugging of the surface kernel drivers. This isn’t going to be a simple or quick fix. Somebody is going to need to do some extensive debugging and analysis to chase down an issue like this. A solution to this problem could take a few hours, or it could take a few months of meticulous trial and error to narrow down the problem space and gather enough data to enable somebody to zero in on the problem.

If you want to dive into tracking down the problem yourself, I suggest starting with the kernel’s own docs on the driver architecture and debugging tools, etc.

Try asking deepseek about why Tienanmen Square is famous or whether Taiwan is an independent nation. Compare deepseek’s answers to chatgpt’s answers for the same question. See for yourself.

There are already AI models trained for distributing intentional misinformation. Grok and DeepSeek are two such examples.

What is there to fear? Seriously. Pretending like this has anything to do with fear is the most childishly narcissistic framing possible. Grow up.

Xorg is nearly dead and buried. Nobody actually cares about Xlibre. Notice how the only thing being mentioned is the sidenote that this fork is run by a racist troll whose been kicked for cause from several prominent OSS projects. Literally the only reason XLibre exists is because this individual needed to start his own project because he’s worn out his welcome in many others.

And, considering the geopolitical state of affairs at the moment. It’s pretty plainly obvious that the only sort of person who is “anti-DEI” are fascists. And the only people making excuses for the fascists are other fascists. So, thanks for letting us know who you are.

Found the useful idiot. You’re willfully ignoring the racist dogwhistles. That either makes you a supporter or a fellow traveler. Either way, you’re complicit and not innocent.

Feel free to go back and read the thread for yourself. It’s all right there.

Funny how you call me a gatekeeper, but can’t explain what I’ve prevented you from doing. You claim that outside critique is Super Important, but then can’t figure out why anyone should care about your critiques. And now you claim I’m lying about something that the text is all right there to read, and somehow I’m incorrect because reasons that you can’t articulate.

Are you sure you’re okay?

Thanks for admitting that you don’t actually care about the software. This was never about the software. This was only about your desire to control the actions of other people. Your previous comment already showed that when you chose to highlight my lack of interest in your opinion and not anything that actually matters.

You might want to consider spending less time on social media.

Correct. There are actual efforts going on to resolve those issues. Which begs the question, why post vague exhortations for people to “do something” about this, rather than focusing the efforts in places where it will make a difference?

This isn’t a post saying “hey, come to this project and pitch in.” This post is just bitching into the ether and then some folks getting butthurt when the pointless performative nonsense is called out for what it is.

Posts like this one happen on a near-daily basis all across FOSS mailing lists. It’s trivial to find numerous, often young, often inexperienced people who think their idea is the one that “fixes everything”. These people reason that everyone should fall over one another to put effort into their magical idea once they see the obviousness and correctness of the idea. Clearly, it’s simply incorrect to find fault in an obviously perfect idea such as this one.

It’s just so weird that literally none of the people with these amazing ideas are the ones doing a “git init” and getting started on the work of actually implementing their amazing ideas. Bizarre how so many spectacular, world-changing ideas need to be worked on by literally anyone BUT their champion. What a horrible world we must live in filled with nasty, evil people who simply won’t volunteer their personal time when we should feel so blessed with this holy relic of an idea.

This narrative is so childish that the only response it deserves is the one echoed by nearly the entire FOSS community, “Patches welcome!”

It’s always interesting to see how people react to being told to put in their own effort instead of demanding the effort of others.

You have access to the code bases. You have access to the contributing rules. You can submit your patches to the same repos everyone else puts their code in. What exactly is being denied to you?

Nobody is gatekeeping. One of us is asserting that there’s no such thing as a free lunch.

The features being requested do not come for free. Someone has to sink the time into doing the work.

So, in an argument between people doing the work and people insisting someone else do the work for them, but it must be to the specifications of the armchair quarterbacks… well… I’ve got bad news about the things the non-paying non-coders want.

You can either pay money or pay time, but nobody cares about the freeloaders demanding things without offering any kind of compensation.

ROFL. Kiddo, I’ve been contributing to OSS for over two decades. The day I start caring about what non-contributors think is the day I stop writing code. Either show up with patches or STFU.
