        Siemens is on there?

        As an electrical engineer, I guess I know which company is NOT selling my circuit breakers now.

        I hate when I already don’t buy from any of these companies, so I can’t really join the boycott for this. At least some of them I am boycotting for other reasons, not just because they make a shit product. Intell, for example, I’ll buy from AMD every time first.

          Sadly, AMD is in Israel as well, although to a lesser degree.

        … Why… or how, would McDonald’s support Israel and the IDF?

        I mean, that seems such an easy target to avoid and just go “I’m staying out of this one” for any company, but McDonald’s? That just has to be for the sport

            Cruelly ironic, considering the IDF used starvation as a weapon.

          I might shorten this to BDSM in the future though…

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Rules

  • Posts must be relevant to operating systems running the Linux kernel. GNU/Linux or otherwise.
