"I do not think that companies with a vested interest in the failure of Open Source should be allowed to fund the major Open Source organizations. That is, to say the least, a conflict of interest."

Also (for @lunduke ), I am mostly pleasantly surprised at the ease and useability of the free software alternatives. My main theory why people dont switch to floss is that there is a drop in the convenience factor, but this is fast becoming irrelevant.
Adobe recently switched from a company-wide blanket license, to requiring each of us to individually register. That was the last straw for me.
FYI if you ever need to fill out a PDF document, and dont trust Adobe, you can use either LibremOffice Draw, or my favourite graphics program Inkscape! Good times!😃

Well over 2 thousand people have filled out this survey, studying the effects of Operating Systems on happiness.
Awesome. Some fantastic data here. I'm going to leave the survey open through the weekend, then publish the findings next week.

"Smart" TVs are smart enough to use facial recognition and spy on your habits, but they aren't smart enough to respect your freedom. When even the FBI is cautioning you to "consider whether you are willing to take the risk," you know you've got a problem. https://u.fsf.org/2z0

Survey. About Operating Systems and happiness and such. You can take it. It's anonymous. Part of an upcoming article and whatnot.
