@marcan the average comments on Phoronix feel like your average gamer comments.
They complain if it isn’t fully FOSS, shame anyone who dares to question anything they like, and have the ignorance of “works on my machine so idk :)”.
One of the comments that was posted in the article literally made me laugh.
“Can we just ditch Apple HW since they don't want to support Linux development at all? This world consists of every kind of things, do not force everyone to use Mac.”
Who the hell is forcing you to use Mac? What reality distortion field are you simulating? If you hate such a computer and call yourself a FOSS supporter, you’re missing the point.
The only point of FOSS is to collaborate, help each other, and grow together. Can’t fix it? Donate, report bugs, send statistics, suggestions, etc.
If you want to ditch Mac hardware or any kind of hardware, you’re making it harder for anyone to try to use Linux, or even dare to learn using it. If you’re starting to reach the point of making your own GPU fan curve because the foss drivers are broken to oblivion, perhaps its time to submit a fix instead of feeling proud of creating such a hacky script solution.
Just saying… looking at you Hawaiian Islands. Thermally shutting down… first degree… allegedly… you’re probably installing it wrong… just use ubun-(ears begin to ring and begins to collapse to the floor)
