The freedom to run the program as you wish, for any purpose (freedom 0).
The freedom to study how the program works, and change it so it does your computing as you wish (freedom 1). Access to the source code is a precondition for this.
The freedom to redistribute copies so you can help others (freedom 2).
The freedom to distribute copies of your modified versions to others (freedom 3). By doing this you can give the whole community a chance to benefit from your changes. Access to the source code is a precondition for this.
person A has this program, he wishes to add or change X functionality,A doesnt have the code, A cant do that, freedom denied. if A has the code, can ask B to do it, B can then redistribute it to A, cuz the freedom to redistribute is there
Users want sexy interface and high enough uptime. They are so oriented to that that they will willingly give all their private conversations to a private company
It's pretty much reality now. A lot of proprietary projects have their source out in the open. Even Microsoft the mogul of the old has embraced open source
Proprietary software development does not contribute to our community, but its developers often want handouts from us. Free software users can offer free software developers strokes for the ego—recognition and gratitude—but it can be very tempting when a business tells you, “Just let us put your package in our proprietary program, and your program will be used by many thousands of people!” The temptation can be powerful, but in the long run we are all better off if we resist it.
>
The temptation and pressure are harder to recognize when they come indirectly, through free software organizations that have adopted a policy of catering to proprietary software. The X Consortium (and its successor, the Open Group) offers an example: funded by companies that made proprietary software, they strived for a decade to persuade programmers not to use copyleft. When the Open Group tried to make X11R6.4 nonfree software, those of us who had resisted that pressure were glad that we did.
>
In September 1998, several months after X11R6.4 was released with nonfree distribution terms, the Open Group reversed its decision and rereleased it under the same noncopyleft free software license that was used for X11R6.3. Thank you, Open Group—but this subsequent reversal does not invalidate the conclusions we draw from the fact that adding the restrictions was possible.

Pragmatically speaking, thinking about greater long-term goals will strengthen your will to resist this pressure. If you focus your mind on the freedom and community that you can build by staying firm, you will find the strength to do it. “Stand for something, or you will fall for anything.”

And if cynics ridicule freedom, ridicule community…if “hard-nosed realists” say that profit is the only ideal…just ignore them, and use copyleft all the same.

interesting read
18:38
X server was nearly gone propietary
18:38
if it had a copyleft license this wouldnt even have happened
open souce (not free software) is actually quite capitalist, it uses good willed devs time and doesnt return cuz they have a license that allows em to not
Your beloved discord is hosted on linux servers, it's sexy client runs on electron, which is based on chromium, your messages are sold to the NSA packaged in a MongoDB dump, the cloudflare infrastructure that protects them from ddos is all based on linux

Literally the only part of this link that isn't open is the very end of it, the source for the discord client. Which is I guess where @Ryozuki's commie license would help
But anyway, whether you like it or not, whether you want the freedoms or not, they are pretty much already there for a lot of stuff and hopefully will be there for more stuff as GPL and it's derivatives infects every single project out there
@Learath2 sadly many devs are blinded by the "will my project become famous and i get millions" dream when using MIT license
18:48
not even rust devs get millions

AMD’s K7 Athlon architecture formed the basis of the company’s CPU offerings for around a decade. Athlon did very well against Intel’s P6 based Pentium III. K8 got the basics righ…
Im of those that can wander around wikipedia hours reading shit xd

A race condition in the virtual ethernet driver of the Linux kernel led to occasional packet content corruptions, which resulted in unwanted packet drops by one of our DDoS mitigation systems. This blogpost describes the thought process and technique we used to debug this complex issue.
Also, note that bpf_trace_printk() is slow, and
should only be used for debugging purposes. For
this reason, a notice block (spanning several
lines) is printed to kernel logs and states that
the helper should not be used "for production use"
the first time this helper is used (or more
precisely, when trace_printk() buffers are
allocated). For passing values to user space, perf
events should be preferred.

But doesn't explain much

Also this is kinda outdated, ring buffers are much more efficient than perf buffers
I wanted to install linux some time ago but i don't have enough space i think + i was afraid i would delete my windows installation and all of my files
whatever you want to achieve, regardless if it's a life goal or a little thing, it counts as being alive so far. It can suck, but at least it's better, than eternal boredom
