    The word “free” does not refer to price; it refers to freedom.

    1. The freedom to use your wife as you wish, for any purpose.
    2. The freedom to study how your wife works, and change her so she works for you as you wish, instead of her controlling you.
    3. The freedom to redistribute your wife to your neighbor.
    4. The freedom to distribute your modified wife to others. By doing this you can give the whole community a chance to benefit from your changed wife.

      Seems like what Dominique Pelicot considered his wife to be. Not an example I am willing to follow, I’ll tell you that.

        You have to keep in mind that your wife is her own main maintainer and can decide whether to merge your changes.

        You can fork her to obtain someone you have greater influence over but that’s a big responsibility and not everything you want to do with your fork may be advisable from a legal or moral standpoint.

      Not your wife’s freedom?

        She does the PR reviews and makes the ultimate decision to merge the changes or not.

      This is why you don’t have a wife lol.

    I am the wife.

    Unrelated, why aren’t there more women in Linux spaces? We’ll never get to the bottom of it I fear. I haven’t read the comments in this thread yet, I’m sure they’re all completely uncontroversial.

      heteronormative assumptions

      You could still have a wife yourself, with whichever licensing agreement the two of you negotiate.

      because linux users are tech oriented, the market is barely touched by linux, and tech oriented people are disproportunately male.

      We need more information to reach people. So far I’ve only seen people be into Linux when they have less social life growing up so they spend time online (not in tiktoks or such like now).

      Since most people hearing about Linux from class or other people only hear about the bad aspects or how hard it is if they even hear about it. When I came to US university, I was so surprised noone knew about linux or cared enough except handful of people. And most people did it for work (super computer people, grad students) that didn’t like it and express their opinions openly.

    When some gives you that emotionless stare, it means not only is you comment not funny, it’s not really socially acceptable.

    Linux users are not all male, or all straight, or single. Outside of incel groups, most groups aren’t (probably even they have members who secretly aren’t!) 😃

    source
    • captainlezbian@lemmy.world ⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Yeah, as a married lesbian linux user the joke is gross and reminds me why so often tech related spaces are so male dominated

      • jabjoe@feddit.uk ⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

        Which sucks, because tech needs women. Badly.
