Maps for routes (it's somehow better than our own transit system for that) and YouTube is slowly grinding off all the worthwhile layers

How does China ban the import of iPhones? They are made there.

2018-12-11 04:24:06 UTC  

@Grenade123 I think they banned iPhones from being sold in China

@Timcast Something perhaps..more upbeat to talk about this week

2018-12-11 12:42:03 UTC

This is the craziest thing I have seen in a while. Some guy put messages in this Scala code about Trump.

2018-12-11 16:21:20 UTC  

>all those posters on damage control

2018-12-11 16:37:00 UTC  

"Code was never just code..."

2018-12-11 16:45:12 UTC  

That commit was accepted?

2018-12-11 16:45:51 UTC  

I think the guy who made the commit owns the repo. So probably

2018-12-11 16:46:06 UTC  

Pathetic.

2018-12-11 16:46:42 UTC  

that seems to be the case

2018-12-11 16:47:20 UTC  

``` Not a Trump supporter, but the last thing I want to see when I'm just trying to get work done is more political BS... this is the wrong medium. ```

Is the most sensible comment

2018-12-11 16:47:52 UTC  

Nothing is safe from SJWs.

2018-12-11 16:48:00 UTC  

Linux is next

2018-12-11 16:48:07 UTC  

too late

2018-12-11 16:48:24 UTC  

I like the conflation of unrelated politics and requests for donations (to continue funding development)

2018-12-11 16:48:33 UTC  

Linus already bent over for some feminist.

2018-12-11 16:48:53 UTC  

his daughter most likely

2018-12-11 16:49:02 UTC  

In any case though, like some of the comments stated, you can just create a politically neutral fork

2018-12-11 16:49:23 UTC  

It is just effort though and fragmentation when it isn't needed.

2018-12-11 16:49:25 UTC  

The only problem would be if github et al decided to go partisan

2018-12-11 16:49:32 UTC  

they joined this i believe https://www.contributor-covenant.org/

2018-12-11 16:49:34 UTC  

So is there going to a purge of white males from the Linux kernel project?

2018-12-11 16:50:07 UTC  

yep, linux is on the list

2018-12-11 16:50:16 UTC  

There might be a purge of wrongthinkers from the main branch but there will still be shitlords working on linooks overall

2018-12-11 16:50:18 UTC

2018-12-11 16:50:40 UTC  

you'll have to find the right branch now

2018-12-11 16:51:20 UTC  

contributors already tried to find ways to pull back their code over this being forced on them. but there is nothing they can do but not work on it moving forward

2018-12-11 16:51:21 UTC  

A load of guys that contributed patches aren't happy about it and they can pull them anytime they like. So there might be a hard fork of Linux at some point

2018-12-11 16:51:41 UTC  

most likely

2018-12-11 16:51:56 UTC  

They don't need to pull code. Licensing dictates that they have to provide the source regardless

2018-12-11 16:52:06 UTC  

No
