What do you find "idealistic" about it? My intention was to explain reality as I see it. I'm also not sure what you mean by "outdated distros". It should be implicit that I'm referring to the currently mainta

The answer is "A". Perhaps some people are avoiding saying this too explicitly because it might sound a bit elitist, but I'll put how I see it as frankly as possible for the sake of clarity. Gemini is not trying to solve a

There were people questioning decisions in relation to goals they were projecting onto the project, but which were not actually the goals of the project. That often resembles 'hate'.

Fundamentally, Linux is Linux. Differences between distros are vastly overstated, and they mostly amount to different default selections and configurations of the same underlying components. Ultimately, anything that will run on one Linux

A state law can only be illegal if it violates the state's own constitution or the US constitution. States are not obligated to participate in the enforcement of federal law, and are entitled to control the official conduct of their ow
