@bagder "I'm an owner of an Opel Astra" <- ouch I can see where they went terribly wrong already. Usually after buying an Opel, most owners say "never again".
@pwaring A lot of problems could be solved if we could invent a heat pump that works between England and South Africa!
@sahil I also thought that that was waaay to generous. But still, getting some free public IPs as a ham is a nice perk.
TIL 44net - if you're a radio amateur, you can get up to a whole /24 of real public internet addresses! Not sure when I'm doing my exam, still sorting life out, but this is a little bit of a motivator.

@fluor There are different motives, but for many, the idea is that many contribute to a collective that everyone can benefit of. With proprietary software, it's more and more the case that the consumer is seen as something that just has to be exploited for the benefit of the owner of the software. So, as long as there are people who believe, work for, and benefit from the collective work, there will be open source in some form.

Wow the Rhamaphosa / Trump meeting is off the rockers, insane that Trump played EFF clips of Malema in the White House, as insane as that house is, never expected that.
@danie10 I was going to write my exam on Saturday but have just been overwhelmed by work to study for it :(
