Because Redhat has IBM hands shoved up through it's ass upto it's brains so it's days are numbered.

Don't underestimate IBM honchos to fuck up a good thing. Recently heard Redhat dropping dev support for a bunch of packages in fedora or something.

The moment someone fucks up.. open source always brings alternatives. See: open office vs. Libreoffice.. the bunch of firefox derivatives.

Seems like everybody like you wants to spend money without diligence when it's the public money.

Proven methods of combating climate change are being ignored here. Hell, the government need not even invest in proven techs like wind farms and solar.. they could put that money into modernizing the power grid and even that would be better than... whatever shit this is.

Someday even the air you breathe will be sold by a corporation.. then your comment will appear silly.

Let's say we continue down this path. Soon you can't even live the way you want because some corp will control things like when you eat, when you sleep, what media you consume,... oh wait...

I think I can distill many of the replies to this question in a few checks that may apply generally (exceptions abound, and i could just be wrong)

  1. Are you intimately familiar (subject matter expert level) with the nasty outcomes of what you would be doing on a daily basis at this company? If yes its better it was YOU and not somebody else.

  2. How much separation is there between what you do and the nasty outcomes? If you pull the trigger on a drone.. I get thats unacceptable to some people.

  3. Does not doing the activity make something else even more worse? (Frying pan vs. Fire dilemma)

  4. Are you only doing this because there's no other real choice? (Poverty)

Microsoft terminal. It has profiles for each connection and Ligature support for fonts. Font rendering is good. Theming is nice.

Edit: in the linux world i like konsole and xfce terminal.

A lot of sociopaths propagate the lie that everyone in the world is as selfish and corrupt as they are. These people are the ones who are controlling capital. It's their incapability to be normal like everyone else that's responsible for their sociopathy and also their projection of values.

Don't be fooled, you're sane if you reject the capitalistic ideals. It's insane to make somebody else disproportionately wealthy with your hardwork and ideas.

What do you suggest? Only the state can have monopoly on violence? Only the government which is controlled by rich people can use violence?
