    I’m not fond of Elon but I get the Altman hate.


  • The idea of a “distro for EU public sector” is neat, but even the PoC has some flaws when considering technical sovereignty.

    First of all, using Gitlab & Gitlab CI. Gitlab is an American company with most of its developers based in the US. Sure, you could host it by yourself but why would you do it considering Forgejo is lighter and mostly developed by developers based in the EU area?

    The idea of basing it on Fedora is also somewhat confusing. Sure, it’s a good distro for derivatives, but it’s mostly developed by IBM developers. The tech sovereignty argument doesn’t hold well against Murphy’s law.












  • To be honest, I do somewhat understand the point of view but not the US-centric view.

    I do wonder why Italy is poorer on average on HDI and PPP than Finland despite Italy having been a “large civilization” back in the day. Rome was flourishing before Common Era while Finland went straight from the Bronze Age to the Middle ages.

    Sure, both were Axis powers but this doesn’t explain the difference. Finland paid heavy reparations to the USSR, suddenly developed industry and became “rich” in less than a century for putting money into tech (???)
