Yes I have worked in industry, no Im not interested in your poorly constructed rants on feudalism.

You have no evidence for any of your claims of this proposed product being unserviceable, unrepairable equipment because it doesn’t exist yet and Kawasaki don’t have a track record of such anti-consumer practices.

You’re not very familiar with Kawasaki Heavy Industries are you?

Open source projects aren’t remotely comparable to what the big Japanese manufacturers can do.

If they ever bring this to market it will be exceptionally complex and require a supply chain that makes your concerns about sourcing parts elsewhere completely irrelevant.

Ooh brushless motors. Very fancy stuff… I wonder if Kawasaki Heavy Industries has any experience with them?

Huh seems they build robots already

I have money but its a 3 year wait if you can convince a GP to refer you… so that’s still fun.

Kawasaki has a well established dealer network, I don’t see support from them as being the primary issue.

If Kawasaki motorcycles are anything to go by working on their products yourself isn’t an issue. You can get the full workshop manual and do everything yourself.

And fell in a pool? You might drive your car into the ocean. Better give up on cars.

Microwave your phone? Useless!

Shoot your dog? Planned obsolescence!

Thanks for not telling us the names of the shows, it really helped

We need to call them what they are; shills.

I will summarise my experience.

When I bought an LG Oled C5 TV and started it up I read the EULA and privacy agreements, there were five of them for some reason. I declined all except for the first.

Buried in the fourth agreement are details of screenshot capture of content being watched, of photos of viewers, facial recognition for age and demographic identification and voice recording of key words for advertising purposes.

So my LG TV doesn’t get internet access.

You mean a common user experience that leaves many new users frustrated.

Yes, that’s how computers work. Like all other depreciating assets.

It is a joke but there’s a hint of truth in there.

I’m definitely not struggling in life if that helps

Why does every single ADHD meme feel like a personal attack?

My question is less about the OS than it is the manufacturers paying to advertise on X. Buying from them is supporting X indirectly.

I did only a quick search really but couldn’t find if any major android phone manufacturers had stopped advertising on there?

How many of those societies have undergone an industrial revolution?

My commits have my real name, because I do serious work, and no I won’t be doxxing myself on this account.

I call out brigading

What kind of lazy gaslighting is this? You were part of the brigade. You have literally been participating in the kind of behaviour that Linus has correctly called out as unhelpful.

Please continue to think you’re on the right side of this discussion when the guy you went out to bat for has stepped down as a maintainer and deleted his socials over this.

I will show you mine if you show me yours.

Not that number of commits has anything to do with calling out brigading which you still seem to be committed to.

Oh I expect absolute crickets from all the people who waded into this trashing Hellwig.

Opposition to it is reactionary, not well-grounded in technical merits; most of Linux is not well-proven to be correct, only believed to be correct under typical operating conditions as estimated by several dozen experienced programmers

Try expanding that to ‘overwhelmingly correct as assessed by hundreds of thousands of programmers on tens of millions of systems globally under diverse conditions at a low end ballpark.’

Martin is not a maintainer of the Kernel/DMA which is why Hellwig clearly states he doesn’t want to add another maintainer when rejecting Martin’s offer to be a maintainer of this proposed code.

This is very clear if you read the email. If you don’t like the formatting go read the full email chain yourself, you will know where to find it if you’re so familiar with ‘kernel social dynamics’.

So you think Hellwig doesn’t understand what is and isn’t intended to go into the kernel/dma that dma maintainers would then be responsible for?

You don’t seem to be familiar with either the full conversation the developers had (its all available) or you don’t understand how the Linux project is structured and maintained.

Since there hasn’t been a reply so far, I assume that we’re good with maintaining the DMA Rust abstractions separately.

No, I’m not. This was an explicit:

And I also do not want another maintainer. If you want to make Linux impossible to maintain due to a cross-language codebase do that in your driver so that you have to do it instead of spreading this cancer to core subsystems. (where this cancer explicitly is a cross-languagecodebase and not rust itself, just to escape the flameware brigade).
