Well, just goes to show you, never buy a Mac ๐Ÿ˜‚.

It can be done with AI, but it's far more work than actually manually syncing it, since the lyrics prompt is not exactly what is written on the screen. Some parts are deliberately missing, since I presume that the output was garbage with that additional text. Like "https" is missing in some parts.

It's still funny ๐Ÿ˜‚... and a real banger, especially the TLS part ๐Ÿค˜.

Yeah, it's kinda unclear, English is not my first language.

Uuu, that's a nice take, I like that.

Too bad it might not be a joke in the future.

The reality is that there are many other wars around the world, yet the Russians are the only ones getting sanctioned. They should set an example by sanctioning everyone that currently works for a company that enables any military. Maybe then the world will see how stupid this whole thing is.

No, you gotta build everything from the big bang onwards.

Yeah? Try it with building wheel for wxPython apps for 10 arches.

Either is fine... more or less...

 
 

TLDR;

It literally hurts me personally to see this happening. It's like a kick in the gut. I used to be proud about having had an involvement with the Linux kernel community in a previous life. This doesn't feel like the community I remember being part of.

Even if that is the case, that doesn't mean that their code or the code they approve is garbage. I don't care who you are or who you work for. What you do in your life outside of open source is your own business. Quality of code is what matters in open source.

They do have troll factories there to influence public opinion.

In the Linux kernel? No. Definitely not. Maybe you'd like to see what happened after they got removed from the maintainers list, it was spam and trolling, and that is not OK in any scenario.

The problem is this still leads to questions about transparency about the project in general and how this decision was made and whether it was made by those involved in the project or was an order from the US government.

My personal belief is that it was an advice by the lawyers and they went with it balls in because who would care about a few Russian maintainers, right ๐Ÿ˜’. Linus probably probably put GHK to it, as to not be him that does the PR, split the heat that may come their way, which it did.

I coldheartedly believe that Linus meant what he said since there was no apology afterwards. Russians are bad in general and they all think the same, they support Puttin.

 

Official statement regarding recent Greg' commit 6e90b675cf942e from Serge Semin

Hello Linux-kernel community,

I am sure you have already heard the news caused by the recent Greg' commit 6e90b675cf942e ("MAINTAINERS: Remove some entries due to various compliance requirements."). As you may have noticed the change concerned some of the Ru-related developers removal from the list of the official kernel maintainers, including me.

The community members rightly noted that the quite short commit log contained very vague terms with no explicit change justification. No matter how hard I tried to get more details about the reason, alas the senior maintainer I was discussing the matter with haven't given an explanation to what compliance requirements that was. I won't cite the exact emails text since it was a private messaging, but the key words are "sanctions", "sorry", "nothing I can do", "talk to your (company) lawyer"... I can't say for all the guys affected by the change, but my work for the community has been purely volunteer for more than a year now (and less than half of it had been payable before that). For that reason I have no any (company) lawyer to talk to, and honestly after the way the patch has been merged in I don't really want to now. Silently, behind everyone's back, bypassing the standard patch-review process, with no affected developers/subsystem notified - it's indeed the worse way to do what has been done. No gratitude, no credits to the developers for all these years of the devoted work for the community. No matter the reason of the situation but haven't we deserved more than that? Adding to the GREDITS file at least, no?..

I can't believe the kernel senior maintainers didn't consider that the patch wouldn't go unnoticed, and the situation might get out of control with unpredictable results for the community, if not straight away then in the middle or long term perspective. I am sure there have been plenty ways to solve the problem less harmfully, but they decided to take the easiest path. Alas what's done is done. A bifurcation point slightly initiated a year ago has just been fully implemented. The reason of the situation is obviously in the political ground which in this case surely shatters a basement the community has been built on in the first place. If so then God knows what might be next (who else might be sanctioned...), but the implemented move clearly sends a bad signal to the Linux community new comers, to the already working volunteers and hobbyists like me.

Thus even if it was still possible for me to send patches or perform some reviews, after what has been done my motivation to do that as a volunteer has simply vanished. (I might be doing a commercial upstreaming in future though). But before saying goodbye I'd like to express my gratitude to all the community members I have been lucky to work with during all these years.

I mean, I could understand if they used natural gas as fuel for vehicles (which I know they don't), but they only use it in households. It makes no sense ๐Ÿคท.
