I don't think they would be dragged into it. Just don't use any of the patents in the portfolio that has this clause. You had no right to use them before the clause.

Sort of sounds like GPL, but for patents. Maybe this is the way to fix the patent system? Build huge portfolios that grant people use of them so long as they are not suing anybody for any payments they hold.

I don't buy that for a second. I think Linus is smart, and knows there is a mob out there ready to enforce and pounce for language they don't like. Its odd, that people keep saying this. He is the leader of one of the largest most

Expect you are wrong. Its like having a party of 20,000 guest over and a hand full of them are complaining. I have read enough comments to know that nowhere the majority of people seem to care what Linus says.

So were are back to "if you offend me, I take your job away". He clearly has added value. He has run one of the MOST successful projects EVER. Most CEOs are never this successful, to so say he is not doing something mostly right i

I am perfect find on people being offended. What I am not fine with is that the notion of being offended translates into anything other than the person simply being offended. EG, offending somebody -- because it is so subjective -- should s

I don't think so. I know many gates cominities that have a guard that verifies identity for those comming and going from the subdivision. And logs are kept. If you can hire a human to do it and it is fine then I don't think any a

How so? I read your link and can't help to see it is about tenants rights, not visitors of tenants. It seems this would only stop non-tenets from having access to the facilities. At least without being accompanied by actual tenants.

That is actually funny. But I think it is important that leaving also gives them the right to be just as indecisive as they want. Maybe being slow and arguing and thinking more about huge changes is exactly what they want.

Patron does not provide the streaming service. For Twitch and Youtube you get to actually have your content served to viewers. Patreon is just a website and database with a blog. I read once they have 300 engineers, and can't figure ou

The x220 gets about 80% my T450s, it also seems to compile emacs a few seconds faster... Later today I will try and post some screen shots of power consumption. The x220 for sure can last an entire day on battery.

What battery do you have? The thin one?

The problem is you can't do those things more easily. The GUI has tricked you. But think about it this way. Leaning your editor in full and taking advantage of what it offers -- no matter what editor your chose is ensuring that tool

I get about 9 hours of battery life on my T450s and about 6 on my x220 under load, youtube, vms, coding. That is under load. My idle times, browsing something like HN, or sitting in #emacs I get near 20 hours on my t450s and about 13 on my

I can't agree that what I stated is a false dilemma. I am simply stating for sake of efficiency locality matters. I am also arguing that they are their own people. And while not all of them agree to be governed in this manner, some lar

Yet we have entire editors that do far less that require a entire web browser and take 100+ Meg's of ram to run. Edit: gigabytes of ram.

Well put, and I do long for a day we are all simply just "human". But there is enough bad in this world that the only sane way to combat it is based of locality. Just as I am not concerned so much with what is happening in a home

Yeah, maybe I do have it easy in my office chair, but somebody before me did the ground work to make it so what we have here is possible. If the people of China want change I am sure they can have it, but it will obviously come at a huge co
