What, so iOS can't run UDP-dependant apps at all?!

Can you please expand further on what you mean by this? Are you saying that rustc is compiling a crate before its dependencies?

Windows(R) subsystem for Linux(R), anyone? GNU can either cut a deal with the Rust Foundation or use fair-use previsions afforded by trademark law. I think there is some leeway for cases like these.

Video game consoles shouldn't be locked down either.

But others' freedoms aren't. Apple shouldn't be allowed to have this much control.

It's fine to think like this, but it's not fine to use donations for it if those donations were not made for that cause. This is why people don't donate to mozilla.

I'd include walmart too if walmart is the only store I'm ever allowed to shop at.

Would canonical be interested in accepting such a patch?

I, like GP, noped out as soon as I saw the SSO requirement. I also noped out of Microsoft's /free/ embedded offing for the same reason. I don't care why it's needed. I'm not interested in voluntarily tying my b

Once sold, an Apple device is no longer the property of Apple. Maintaining exclusive access to the primary (and I'd argue only) means of purchasing software for a device they do not own is a monopoly, even if it might not have been cla

I haven't been able to bring myself to read any bloomburg article since that fiasco went down. Refusing to redact a fabricated story doesn't bode well for an organization that claims to report news. I'm still waiting for a re
