  • GPL is not a political manifesto. It is a license.

    I think you are injecting a lot of politics into that entire mailing list because of the social warrior wording. But the man has the right to defend a decision he made… About his software… In a mailing list… About his software. And as a leader it is his goal to keep his team on the same page, so I thought it was really well written: https://www.phoronix.com/news/Linux-Is-Not-Anti-AI.

    Why exactly does social warrior bother you so much? Is that seriously all it was to make all the accusations and insinuations in your blog post?

    The moment you pick the term “social warrior”, you are already in politics…That isn’t neutrality.

    You insinuate that he took bribes, or did I read that wrong to?

    Maybe he’s being paid to be nice to a specific company. There is a lot of money in this world, and there isn’t a stack left that doesn’t want to influence Linux.

    No?

    I can’t prove it, and I hope I’m wrong.

    Again, it seems to me like you are trying to discredit the founder of Linux and thus Linux as a whole. I think you are trying to sow discontent where there is none and using the word choice of “social warrior” to do so. I don’t see any valuable insight in the entire blog post just a bunch of accusations/insinuations directed at a man I respect. Based on what exactly? Word choice and Marxism? What a fucking load. He does not deserve to have his code, contributions, and decades of work boiled down to ‘a political tool’. The philosophical ideas to support your own conclusions are so stretched and twisted that it seems to me like you’ve invented a whole new way to be afraid of something.
















  • I’m working on a project involving home assistant, zigbee, and Google home. In a perfect world the doorbell would make all the Google homes chime. Not sure if it is going to work, but I know that I can simply hook up a Bluetooth speaker to the brains of it and it’ll work.

    Materials

    Software

    My home assistant will be a docker container. In order to make this work, I will be installing esphome on the esp32. I got an esp32 screen because it will also operate a self watering garden, but you don’t need to. It will need to be configured as a zigbee proxy for home assistant, but seems pretty straight forward.
