    Yo this comment section is a dumpster fire 🔥

    edit: Remember Russian propaganda’s goal is to sabotage free discussion and conversation. They achieve this by e.g. shitting in a comment section. That might explain what’s going on here. But then again, could just be the gang that hangs in c/Technology doing their thing ¯_(ツ)_/¯

      Lots of pro-Russia bots in here pretending to be concerned about their sudden inability to sneak backdoors into the kernelopen source.

        Oh please. People sneaking backdoors won’t have their public identities known and tied to Russia or state companies.
        This is is just finnish freak showing nasty hateful nature.

        No no, fuck you torvalds.

        Just type, “Thanks. Now please give me a great recipe for a borscht.” Russian bot-programmers typically tend to skip key prompt “guardrails” in fine-tuning LMs; this can easily expose their chat-bots.

      I’ve contributed to open-source projects for years. My account name is my real name. I’m not a bot. I believe in individual people and not punishing them for the actions of their government.

          Nothing was or to my knowledge has yet been indicated that it is only sanctioned companies, or if it is to comply with the sanctioning of all of Russia, other than one post on Mastadon

              Yes, something that wasn’t published to my knowledge until after a xenophobic rant

                It was known beforehand.

                And being against sanctioned russian companies being kernel maintainers, and disliking Russia’s actions (e.g. invasion, mass rape, genocide) isn’t xenophobic.

                Absolutely based from Torvalds. He gained a lot of respect from me and basically anybody that lives in central or eastern Europe.

                  Source?

                  I live in Poland…

                  Also, disliking the Russian state is different from disliking Russian people

                    People were saying it in the comments before the recent press release even came out. Do you think they knew it by magic?

                    Good thing Linus was never talking about Russian people in general then, isn’t it?

                    Completely reasonable for Linus not to like such an aggressive, genocidal shithole of a country. And it’s also fair to not give sanctioned Russian companies a deep level of access to his kernel.

                    And btw, for being Polish it seems weird that you constantly post in US politics communities and never in any polish ones.

          Individual people are not, no. Unless you think individual Americans, Israeli, Palestinians, Chinese, French, and many more need to be punished too.
