There are people still using VMWare?!?!? And their main issue is COST, rather than the fact that VMWare is like a thousand years old?

You don't know him and don't know he's a sociopath.

However, the people who do know him say he's a sociopath, so they probably know.

I mean the software is impressive and all, but since when is someone with a user ID in the 400,000s a long-time reader?

"I forget what they call it"

I think a lot of them are freaking out about how to keep their servants and security loyal in the bunkers. Your bunker seems like a great idea until your head of security starts cutting off your fingers and won't stop until you give him all the codes and combinations to the safe.

We've lost half the world's corals in 50 years.

That's actually a right-wing myth. The government never "ordered" them to do that. They did it out of greed.

Oops.

Everything you said is correct except the penguin thing. Some penguin species are dependent on sea ice, and they have been declining because of that.

Arctic summer ice is down 50% in only like 50 years. Most of the historic Mt. Kilimanjro snow cover is gone. The predictions are coming through.

You're a liar, of course, when you exaggerate what those predictions were. But you're lying out of fear and anger because you know you have been wrong, that it's getting clearer that you've been wrong, and you know it's eventually going to be so clear that even the mentally deranged in this country who don't believe in climate change will finally realize they're wrong. And it will happen soon enough that you will still be around and people you know will remember how stupid you were.

Noise, higher electricity and power bills.

On the one hand, patent troll. On the other, Apple has spent the past 50 years stealing ideas from everyone so hard to feel too bad.

Not for nVidia. They are the guys selling shovels to the gold rush miners.

Out in the alternate universe where folks are actually building things (instead of the corner office of the guy using business double speak) "success" also means "attracts competent developers and retains them."

Many folks at the time did not want to contribute code that would just get stolen by proprietary parasites and *literally* sold back to them.

Or to projects where improvements never made it back to the mainline.

Those folks, in my experience, were the ones who actually both knew what they were doing and had a strong belief that they were contributing something to the larger community - and not something easily looted by the guy using business speak who just wanted more revenue.

Those folks, whether or not you agree with me, preferred contributing their time to GPL'd projects over BSD projects.

Were you a developer at the time? If not. STFU. Stay in your lane.
