Yeah, when I was an infrastructure engineer, this was definitely part of the work I was expected to do, though eventually I turned it into educating and supporting developers in understanding security technologies and leveraging them for their application development. But that's just because I wanted to do it that way.
This is not true even in those spaces anymore. Games these days require libraries like SDL, or (increasingly) use engines like Godot.
Defense is a weird place, but open source is used quite a lot there, it's often required to do so and to record the open source consumed to produce a product. And often times, it must be commercial open source where you can get engineering support for the lifetime of the product's existence.
This stopped a long time ago. Many older GNU projects still have them, but newer ones are not required to have them. Some have even made their usage optional.
In practice, precedence has about the same legal power in both common law and civil law jurisdictions.
That is civil law courts tend to go with the precedent most of the time on the one hand. And on the other hand, a common law judge can always do a bit of nitpicking to argue why the case before her is special and thus different enough from the precedent (or she can pick from multiple different precedents, and then come up with a justification for why the one she picked matches the case before her the most).
Some, but not all, precedents are absolutely legally binding in the French system, they have the same force as the law (unless a later law contradicts them).
Fullscreen HDR support is coming with KDE Plasma 6 on Wayland (which should be available with Fedora Linux 40 and other distributions depending on their timelines).
