@akareilly@hachyderm.io Linux is very much a "socialize the costs, privatize the profits" kind of tech.
Edit: Folks, if you're going to "well-actually" me about this, first of all I guarantee you haven't actually thought about this as much as you need in order to do that. Second of all, this was a quip not a detailed technical analysis. I'm not going to write you a detailed technical analysis unless you pay me, and you can't afford the nuisance charges I would require to do that.
No, you can't trick me by saying something stupid and wrong in an effort to get me to correct you, so just keep your stupid and wrong nonsense to yourself.

@Azuaron@cyberpunk.lol @akareilly@hachyderm.io The vast majority of kernel development is done by tech companies, both large and small: https://lwn.net/Articles/1066723/ It has been a project by corporations for corporations for a long time.
