Only the ones not funded by Russia.

Well, Russia itself is oil founded (huge part of the budget)

I read the article but it's still unclear what argument the anti-wind groups use to say _why_ "wind is bad for environment/our children/the economy/greater good"?

Who needs argument in 2025 ? Just say it is "woke".

Historical records, especially pre-record keeping are revised when new techniques and sciences discover better, more reliable ways of interpreting the physical geological evidence left in the world behind us.

What is the basis of these revisions?

revision based on new findings is how science works revision based on ideology is how fascism works

Yes the clean and efficient alternative would be a session manager "server" running on the server and communicating with the terminal "client" (like kitty) using a more efficient protocol for handling panes/windows/drawing etc...

AFAIK this doesn't exist, so I'm using tmux...

well after a quick search it exists: it's called tmux control-mode https://github.com/tmux/tmux/wiki/Control-Mode

So terminal clients just have to implement this protocol... it's already implemented in iTerm2

What would be the point? Without emacs all you're left with is another markup language.

What makes org mode tied to emacs ? I really need to try org mode to understand it. If only I had time...

I would like browsers to have very strict limits on the amount of cycles a page can use, and have some permission like for camera to use more CPU.

I would like also that devs run their site/apps on downgraded machine/VM so that they can early detect performance issues.

edit: sorry I should have searched, Luajit only supports up to Lua 5.1

True ! that's why I said medium sized car. :) And I don't use it for commuting to work or go to groceries. So what's remaining needs a car with descent size and range for 2 persons. Best alternative for me would be that a fair car sharing/rental system develop even more so I can ditch my car and only rent the car size I need for the trip.

If certain people cannot contribute to the Linux kernel because of a list maintained by the USG then perhaps it's time for Linux kernel development to no longer be dependent on US law.

We should realize this has nothing to do with Russia or the Russian government. This could happen with any country and any group of people. The USG is constantly expanding their sanctions regime. Thus, we need to ask ourselves the obvious question; Who will be next?

What I find perplexing and surprising are the people I see online cheering this on. The people who are happy that the USG is forcing Linux kernel devs to stop working with people. Why are some people so happy for Linus and crew to take orders from the USG's sanctions regime?

Where did the free as in freedom go?

> If certain people cannot contribute to the Linux kernel

You don't need at all to be an official maintainer to contribute to Linux
