So this is yet another comments thread where I see numerous people not agreeing with OSI definition of "Open Source" and it got me wondering again, has there always been such a sentiment, or is it a recent one? I don't recall

Reading through new licenses, and getting them approved by your legal departament isn't fun to anyone, plus some licenses are very subtly non-free - see the JSON license with its "do no evil" clause as an example.

I can't tell you how to handle this, and I have never been in a similar situation before (closest being having to disable accounts for the other person on my team) but here are two thoughts: Firstly, You don't know for sure what w

Well, by engaging with the community and perhaps even preparing a patch. Making changes to the distribution is not exactly arcane knowledge.

When you say "everything else just pales" do you mean that licenses/subscriptions are the only viable options to make sure you don't go out of business, or are they the only option to justify multi-billion evaluations an

I've switched from Linux (Thinkpad X240) to macOS (Macbook Pro 2015, and now 2018) because of those small issues [1]. However, nowadays I feel like your experience with Linux laptop really depends on what kind of work you are doing, an

But Canonical (and I assume SuSE as well) has quite a few proprietary bits (definitely more than RedHat), with some of their offerings being more or less "Open Core" (for examples, see comparison of MAAS free vs commercial, or how

Why is it a joke? It has always been a case that Canonical will backport security patches and critical bugfixes, rather than updating the entire package to the latest upstream version. On the other hand, Ubuntu Backports is community projec

I don't think Firewall VM is trimmed in any way, compared to their standard VMs, so it's running a lot of "cruft" [1] - Xorg, systemd and friends, extra Qubes plumbing. It all adds up to ~200MB, and then the rest is used

How are you backing up VMs? Using some kind of hypervisor API, or just run bacula file in VMs themselves?

Maybe [1], but then Canonical is aiming at getting Ubuntu into as many phones as possible, and it working with the Android stack is helping in achieving this goal. [1] On the other hand what would be a benefit of investing into getting driv

I'm kinda baffled that in every discussion that mentions ST3 upgrade and lack of bug fixes for ST2 words like "entitlement" are showing in the discussion. There has always been an implicit agreement between software developers and customers
