More to the point. Making a cheap phone is not an affordable endeavour.

Linux phone makers such as pine have discovered this in the past. As your first products are going to be low demand. Running a business on the profit margins of lower priced phones becomes hard. It seriously limits your ability to gain investments. Making competition with similar priced products insanely complex.

Bullshit.

In 1997, the borders of Ukraine were the internationally recognized borders it inherited upon the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991, which included its territory from the Black Sea to its borders with Belarus, Russia, Poland, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania, and Moldova. This was confirmed by the 1997 Treaty on Friendship, Cooperation, and Partnership between Ukraine and the Russian Federation, known as the “Big Treaty,” which legally bound Russia to respect Ukraine’s existing borders.

So Russia agreed to respect the 1991 borders. Then broke that agreement.

Besides the point. Ukraine only indicated a desire to Join NATO indicating a desire. Even in its constitution is not breaking the agreement. But a act of democratic will.

You are basically arguing.

"Oh it looks to me that Ukraine’s population wants to break a treaty we have already proven we will not abide by. We had a right to attack in the past. "

You are talking out your arse and have absolutely no fucking idea what you are talking about.

Goodbye.

So after Russia invaded breaking it’s treaty commitment to respect the borders and sovereignty of Ukraine. Ukraine no longer followed it’s commitments under the broken treaty.

Yes that is the way things work.

Now maybe Russia should hand back the fucking nuke it got in return for agreeing to respect that soverinty.

Your argument are no more then trollinsh bollocks with zero merit.

Ukraine never joined NATO. Inventing bullshit arguments about friendships with nations you dislike. In no fucking way counts as a treaty violation. Invading another fucking nation dose.

Why recent. Do you think treaties expire when your friends don’t like them any more.

They have not been first to break an international treaty they signed since leaving the USSR. Russia broke several when they invaded Ukraine.

Nations that thrive on war tend to invade other nation. They do not wait for other to invade them.

Because in the early 2000s Open office was given a fuck load of publicity by sun and then oracle. As such it is still the first name many less OS informed think of when they think of an open source office suite.

Libreoffice has simply never had that sa,e level of publicity.

It is still to this day a fucking fight to convince many who look for an alternative to Microsoft. That Libreoffice is the true OpenOffice replacement.

So why the fuck did Russia need to be the one to start it.

If they thrive on war. Surely they would have been invading russian territory. Rather then sitting and Following the treaties with Russia. That Russia chose to break and invade Ukraine.

It’s a fucking stupid argument.

You will likely need some form of support structure. L Angle welded as a pitched frame is my plan. A d some seal between each panals.

But for a single story shed structure yes.

Also rent but social so I have a bit more stability and flexibility. Sorry an advantage of being old and disabled. Was able to get a place while it was still possible.

I fully understand how fucked over a high % over my age voters left your age group.

Agreed, just a little annoyed is all. I’m thinking of building a gazebo in my garden with solar cells on top. Seems like they some Aluminium l angle with a little fibreglass will act as a bloody cheep roof ATM.

2 years ago I spent £200 on 2 41pw panals to fit my brother and my small boat. Thinking that price was too cheap to miss. Knowing it would be this winter I was able to fit them.

Talk about a bad choice. Can’t really complain though.

Not that I know of. ATM 410w panels are £45 each, having dropped hugely over 2 years.

Agreed. It’s also happening in the UK slowly. We are now 80% renewable 10% nuclear. 10% fossile. Given our use that is impressive. But also we are starting to see low price solar inverter kits that can add as additional power.

A bit late. While much of Africa has unreliable power. Including many more industrialised nations. Solid fuel power stations and majority urban areas have been wired for decades.

Solar has just been a needed backup for well off homes. That is now dropping to others.

Had no idea germans were so into mushrooms.

Each to there own I spose.

Sure when you find any source indication open source did not exist as a term,

Untill then stop being an arsehole and consider the fact old gits remember shit.

Maybe but I’m assuming you are far to young to have worked on and pre x86 arch. So assuming is only making you the arse.

I worked on many software products calling them self open source pre stallmans popularity.

It literally was the only way software commercial could have a large marketing base in the early days. Pre home PC etc.

Pre internet links are hard. I grew up using these versions of open source.

IBM SCO and sun formed Open source licences that were very literally you got to see and change the source.

In the 60 as CPU tech was a minefield of different ideas and architecture. It was the only way companies your keep up with mainframe PCs.

You will need to go to a library with microfiche and hubd down the 1960s open source magazine if you want more then actual old farts telling you the truth,

Unfortunately you fail to understand the history. Stall man FSF etc is a relatively new organisation started in the 80s.

Open source was a term long before that. And it was created by early Unix commercial dostros in the 60s. There were magazines etc dedicated to it as a mess with to allow commercial software to spread to multiple platforms. Long before stallmans free as in beer attitude.

So no the other licences have a place in history and are open source even if you and I may not support their ideals.

This is why words like libre and free software were formed to include our expanded ideals.

Only some definitions of open source state that. The concept has existed long before the free software foundation.

While personally agree with the FSF. To say it is an exclusive definition of open source is just outright false.

Agreed. Likely in the low millions £ to fix by skilled specialists.
