    They expect the special operation to take only a month.

          Is anyone using BSD as a desktop by the way? Ive only been focusing on Linux.

            Very few

            Honestly I don’t see much point in BSD. Weak licensing and the BSDs are all different. Wayland and systemd are probably nails in the coffin as neither of them will ever work on BSD.

              systemd maybe, but people are already running Wayland on FreeBSD and OpenBSD

      The thing is, there is no way for the US and British to swoop in and declare unlimited military support for the opposing side in exchange for mineral rights and financial predation on its industry and state assets.

          Oh, was I the one who brought up the war in Ukraine over Linux? No, that was Reddit brigaders infecting every topic they mentally associate with it, as usual.

          Sir, this is a Kernel. This is not the United Nations.

        The real challenge facing a kremlin linux fork isn’t opposition, it’s deciding what to do once they realize there aren’t any maternity wards in the kernel they can shoot ballistic missiles at.

          Oh first the Russian government is the one responsible for the fork itself, now suddenly they are shooting missiles at it in your mind. The liberal brainpan is a fascinating place.

            I think you may have misread the message you replied to. The message you replied to was implying the Russians wouldn’t know how to deal with the kernel because they can’t shoot missiles at it. That’s the opposite of what your reply implies.

          That’s what I’m saying, associating it with the SMO is just liberal Russiagate brainworms manifesting over every issue related to the country. I wasn’t the one to bring it up.

              Yes, and if Russia is solely defined by the war in Ukraine to you, you don’t even understand how their government works. It’s pure jingoism. Are these people who decided they are Linux superfans the day that Russian maintainers were kicked out so comfortable with the idea that only Western governments should invest in open source technologies? This kind of thing should become a public utility.

                It’s funny because it’s not a realistic expectation.

                  We discussed that “expectation” already, and how hopes of diplomacy with Ukraine evaporated officially with Boris Johnson’s visit. Of course, behind the scenes it was already hopeless since 2014. They just took time to prepare for sanctions.

                  Rather than discussing the prospect of the development of Linux as a public utility by a diverse array of nations and groups, you show up to cheerlead for western tech monopolies and the intellectual apparatus. You jeer. You hoot. You’ve got your burger in hand.

                    The joke is since it’s a Russian fork of Linux, they think that it’ll be complete in only a month.

        Like many things in Russia, the appearance is more important than the truth. If there were anything substantial made, I’m sure there will one or more soy agencies helping to pad a developer’s savings.

              remember the news article I won’t source

              Nope, people can’t read your mind.

              Some things cannot be taught, but absorbed through the pores. Some views are etched early on

              You have some personal issues to discover and resolve. I wish you luck undoing your idealistic devotion to Culturalist thinking.

                I tried to delete that before you replied, if you don’t know then you don’t know. But my example is solid. Many great people in Russia though, not disrespecting that but only the system instead .

                Life imitated art and I expect the western counties to catch up later

                  Russia doesn’t have some kind of transcendental national character. There are very particular and specific holdovers from the USSR, but the Russian Federation should never be treated as a direct parallel to the USSR.

                    And I agree, then Putin happened later. Where is the spark now? And who am I to comment on such things…. But disregarding all that, I think there will be no serious kernel development there this decade, just maintaining older systems properly. Sorry I made joke earlier
