Why don't I in my free time implement driver support for a machine I can't afford for a company with almost 300 billion in cash equivalents who has benefited massively from open source but wont even provide specification so that someone can do the free work for them effectively?

Why don't they send me a laptop along with the specs one of their engineers feels sufficient to implement support?

"No one is going to give you the education you need to overthrow them." "The master's tools will never dismantle the master's house."

If you want freedom—real freedom—you'll have to work for it. You can't just wish for the powerful to let you borrow some of their freedom.

I build custom desktops on which I install linux. My router runs linux. I have a thinkpad on which I've installed... you guessed it linux.

I'd love to give something like the librem phone a whirl but I really can't upgrade from my nexus 5 just now.

I am just calling out Apple for boiling a bunch of frogs slowly.
