ebasedi bros................. its not looking good............. what if we get fired.......
>Ebassi
God, I remember that idiot getting super mad at me once randomly at a forum because I had the audacity of running a system without polkit on it.
Yes, he kept insisting that I didn't know what I was doing and didn't understand what polkit did because I ran a system without it. He was so mad by this affront and heresy that I ran a system without polkit on a single user computer. He couldn't believe that I simply mounted my external drives with a mount command and sudo.
Please post a link. I'm compiling a massive dossier of dirt on ebassi to send it to RedHat HR
https://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/3h9z06/the_journey_of_purging_polkit_from_your_system_on/cu5q3k4/
The welcoming and friendly GNOME community for you.
Thank you, my brother in Gentoo. I will reward your suffering and ease your pain
>the community with "code of conduct" and "inclusivity" is headed by a power-tripping butthole
Neither disappointing nor surprising
Yeah, all these code of conduct wankers have twitter and forum posts where they are unreasonably aggressive.
They were also immediately able to dig up dirt on Twitter on the people that banned the Hyprland dev for not running his own discord in accordance to the Freedesktop code of conduct which they then promptly deleted.
Ehmke is the worst one of all who's basically the primordial engineer of Code of Conduct as a conduct and constantly insults people on Twitter over minor things.
It's really a for-thee-but-not-for-mee culture, but that happens everywhere I suppose.
Thanks for the read Anon, that whole attack vector bit about changing the system time was choice. Why the frick. Did Ebussy come out swinging like that though?
Because he's clearly deeply insulted that someone would want to run a system without Polkit.
It's just bizarre how personally he takes it. If you ever talk with Freedesktop devs it becomes clear they really, really do not like it when someone doesn't use their technologies. Most are considerably less angry about it but you can smell the contempt in the way they word things when they find out you're not using Freedesktop tech.
Just how he was obviously deeply insulted by a state of inceldom. Have you noticed how he started flexing with his marriage since he got married? Sounds like he got shoved into the locker for being a gfless virgin one too many times.
What the frick are you talking about, no one even mentioned incel's
Take a second anon. Find some of those posts by epussy where he had a meltdown over the user "ebussyfoot". Notice how he was calling that anon a virgin over and over.
Now, notice that ebassi has not been doing this kind of thing before he got married.
What I'm saying is that perhaps he is now wielding the weapon once wielded against him - accusations of inceldom
There is no going back
I don't think they are going to do literally anything about a 9 year old post. That is like dragging a tweet from some forgotten corner of twitter from a decade ago.
There's more. epussy just can't shut up when he's mad. After all, he's from Naples, they're a temperamental bunch
What else did you have?
That's nothing, it's socially acceptable to bash IQfy users.
I'm not:
- dumping my evidence
- disclosing the full list of companies I contacted
on the off-chance that ebassi or his minions are watching and deleting his posts, or that he will know which company to pull his strings at, to get away
cont.d however I do like it that you guys remember some of it:
I understand, once everything is said and done I hope you keep us posted. I want to know how this all ends
how about unsocially?
Wow, he's literally me. I also constantly call people on IQfy pathetic weeb permavirgins.
I think another GNOME dev when he was trying to ask technical things to trap me and expose holes in my knowledge which I could all answer at one point also replied with “Did you ever kiss a girl?” then as an epic comeback.
Well, did you ever kiss a girl?
No, I'm a homosexual.
User error :closed:
What is the use case of sex?
is this really his account, kek
It takes me 3 clicks to shut down my windows computer
>Start menu
>Shut down
>Force shutdown
Where is that one getting the fourth button click?
>gnome menu (with network setting etc)
>shutdown/close session
>shutdown
>dialog box timer of 60s to shutdown or cancel
but i'm on an older gnome
right click the start button
For a while it wasn't even possible btw:
>The Power Off option is hidden because we don't believe it's necessary in that menu. The primary way that a user would shut down (if they, say, need to disconnect power) would be to log out and shut down through GDM.
You were forced to logout first
But they changed their mind
>Every other OS lets you shutdown while logged in
>"Why would you want to do that?"
Sums up Gnome perfectly
>Why do you want to do that
Too GNOME for me.
Is it actually weird that I just enter a command to restart or shutdown my computer every time by the way?
This isn't some weird Gentoo stereotype is it?
I thought that was typical for linux users. since you know, if you're going to restart it's probably after installing something or messing with configs, so you're probably already in a terminal
I'm 50/50 on shutdown though, sometimes I'm too lazy to reach for the mouse so I just pop open a terminal, other times I click the button idk
Yeah I thought it was typical too and never even considered the option of a shutdown button in some kind of start menu.
How can KDE force that? KDE can't stop anything.
At least, my system on shutdown sends TERM to all processes and gives the 5 seconds to close themselves, and then sends KILL to whatever is remaining, that's it.
I've worked at companies where the policy was to fully shut down your workstation at the end of every day. Ostensibly for "security and environmental" reasons. Now that might be a stupid policy, but as an employee it wasn't my policy to decide but nevertheless my job to follow.
>hurr why do you want to shut down your computer? t. ebussy
WHO FRICKING CARES YOU ARROGANT PRICK. DON'T MAKE MY JOB EVEN HARDER
I usually just do the command since I keep a terminal open on my laptop screen and use an external monitor for everything else.
But I use KDE and it also makes you click if you don't wanna wait through the 60 second countdown.
The shut down button doesn't even work for me 90% of the time in GNOME. It only works after the second attempt.
I thought gnome is free and run by volunteers?
they've been ebegging for years and surviving off of grants, anon. due to ebussy's staggering levels of incompetence, lack of will, shitposting on various websites, people have stopped giving these useless c**ts money.

the absolute nerve of fat pussy and gnomeBlack folk to even dare complain about money if they've burnt through 1 million since the end of last year. lmao.
1 mil is frick all in today's world
Shut the frick up
rude
hello andrew
If you can't live on ~$2,500 a day for a year, you shouldn't be using maths to make anything.
Yet KDE manages to be in better standing by only getting 300k total a year, fricking Gnome is a joke
KDE is in the red too (2022)
2023 Report is not out yet.
plasma 6 funding campaign results
~1000 people giving 100€/yr or more.
100.000€ at worst 200.000€ at best(a year)
not a lot of money if you want to hire software devs.
If they should seek to spend the money wisely rather than constantly expanding or else they might end up like gnome
I know that money was used to move to a new build system and also fund a few KDE developers.
But we need to wait for the 2023 report to be sure.
If they need to constantly spend money instantly, they should use the money to train a custom coding AI to help them
maybe in a decade but all software dev AI right now is still substandard.
They could do it for translation though.
Microsoft does it for translation
I was mainly thinking of something that could be used to funnel money and also potentially be useful. Training an AI seems perfect for that task
you could do that or you could also pay some eastern europeans substandard wages.
>If they need to constantly spend money instantly, they should use the money to train a custom coding AI to help them
That would very rapidly be money wasted. Think about it, if they do that next year instead of now, they could get far better results for the same amount of money.
hope valve hire these people and keep it foss
Go woke go broke
40K a year from interest yields alone is not "frick all". It might be frick all if you are subhuman cattle who thinks buying an overpriced house in the suburbs of a big US city is a god-given right.
Can I donate a negative amount? I don’t actually need the moneys but I need them to not have it.
There’s so much churn volunteers can barely keep up with what’s needed to compile it. It’s really not practical to develop it in your free time. That’s how much of a mess it is.
Send them a bill of lading for causing you hardship and distress.
it is. even the guy that contributed to the thumbnail file picker was just some youtuber doing it for the views.
That was George Stavracas who is a Brazilian open source programmer that streams once a blue moon. He was part of Gnome but left in favor of another open source organization. He is still a contributor to a handful of projects. He is pretty much one of the few sane and competent Gnome devs. There was a guy that also made a working solution before him (https://github.com/Dudemanguy/gtk) but ebussy doesn't accept opinions outside his circle and overcomplicates solutions (https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/issues/233#note_1106706).
There's no use-case for donations
Therefore I ain't doing that
how much money are they burning through if they get money from Red Hat and Canonical?
Recorded foot massages for all female employees are expensive, please understand(and also donate)
what is the use case for Gnome? none? oh well.
What use case does a fundraiser serve?
didn't they hire a shaman to raise funds?
kek https://www.instagram.com/holly.million
it's crazy how shameless some homies are
this random woman just comes in, takes over the project of some OSS ebussi betas
probably makes 100k+ and roleplays as a shaman in her comfy garden most of the day
>a new execute director joins in
>she immediately increases the amount of whale chairs so she can invite her groupies for free foss donation money
oh nononononono
They earn a grand total of frick all.
Unless it's some mega charity scam, board members are lucky to get travel expenses.
is this even true or did you just make it up
my dad sits on a board of a tiny non profit and he gets $80k/yr for 4 meetings per year
I hate women and I hate foundations. We need a king with all men homosexual court to run FOSS. None of this woman ick
I love women and the crazy porn they draw write about being raped by hot chads with gigahands.
Gnome already has all the features I need, what is the use case of developers?
they are literally being funded by google, red hat, canonical and suse. how do they even manage to frick up the resource management this badly?
They have tons of programs where they give away money to women and non-whites
you mean money laundering? ok thanks, calling financial crime prevention
They simply do not have the manho- transwomanhours to invest in handling the bug tracker.
Sad, really.
they're re-donating to black lives matter and CPUSA/Communist Party of the United States like Mozilla was doing
based GNOME directing the globohomosexual funding to anti-semitic terrorist organizations
Like the other anons said, they are likely donating money to globohomosexual shit. Same thing The Linux Foundation, Wikipedia, Mozilla and tons of projects that are non profit and constantly begging for money yet throwing it away to give to Black folk
>work at ikea
>get into gnome board of directors because of muh diversity
>make a whooping amount of 10 posts in 4 years on GNOME discourse
Yeah, I think I'll give my money to GNOME.
How difficult is it to get into these boards?
I'm thinking make a fake online profile with diversity written all over it, somehow manage to join a bunch of open source boards as a director, collect a bit of money from each. If there's any actual work then just let AI handle it.
Any credentials or merit is worthless, its all about nepotism and being part of a circlejerk
if you didn't grow up on Epstein island it's not gonna work.
become a troony prostitute and sell yourself in WEF meetings shilling your shaman shit and in a decade you will have sucked enough dicks to get a position. The younger you are the faster this goes.
absolute state
regina is a niger backwards
>Yeah, I think I'll give my money to GNOME.
Donating to GNOME is about outreachy and getting women into tech you bigot freak.
Funny you mention Outreachy! The only time they did Outreachy is the same year that epussy met with his transman wife. He was a woman at that point. Do you think he could've groomed her and told her to be a transman?
>Do you think he could've groomed her and told her to be a transman?
I believe it. As a homosexual I'd rather be a virgin than frick ebussy, he has to make do.
You know what also a funny coincidence? Before meeting epussy, his wife joined FOSS through Outreachy
wtf gnome is based and christian?!?!?
>GNOME is going bankrupt
What they are not telling you now is that donating to the "GNOME Foundation" does NOT mean you are donating to GNOME. The money won't go to the developers of the desktop environment in any way, it will go to people like this .
Anon posted her channel below. She uses mac. As most people within GNOME.
And she doesn't even use gnome or Linux at all, she uses Mac:
All the people at KDE uses Plasma, no one that works on Gnome uses Gnome, weird how that works right?
>>work at ikea
What did she do at Ikea? Stock shelves or soup kitchen checkout?
I just realized that my life has no use-case.
You use it
hmmm. Thank you anon <3
yes it does
just do not be a gay, brother
Why not?
Not with that attitude
Neither with your argument.
> gnome is getting fked
YES
Gnome sucks, it needs to die already. Worst DE i've ever used.
>they spent all the money adding thumbnails to the file picker
You did this to them, apologize
what's the use case of the apology? it doesn't fit, I'm not going to add it
> does nothing to improve gnome over many years
> prevents features from being added because epussy can't be bothered
> won't accept additions and improvements unless he's involved somehow to take credit
> plz give us money
i wonder if this all connected somehow? mysterious.
i have a donation: FRICK OFF AND DIE, EPUSSY.
I will let the market decide.
>yov vill give yovr lvnch money to ebvssy
>and yov vill like it
Didn't they get a million dollar grant recently? Don't tell me, they spent it all on LGBTQIA+ inclusion, didn't they?
I'll give them two farts, where do I donate?
>Revenue $2mil
>Engineer Payroll: $1mil
>Nigs and Women in Tech NGO Donations: $5mil
>Aella gangbangs: $1mil
Someone good at budgeting, please help the Gnome Foundation
"Cut back on NGO Donations and gangbangs."
"No."
Imagine all the issues that Mozilla have getting funding and Gnome is used by even fewer people.
I have no usecase for donating. Why is donating a important feature anyway?
>You don't needful that money
what's the use case for money in your wallet? just give us all you have
I hereby donate my scorn.
no. FOSS is free as in freedom not beer.
if the money is tight they can sell the software. they can also offer paid consulting for problems, questions and debugs.
>if the money is tight they can sell the software
not possible.
>. they can also offer paid consulting for problems, questions and debugs.
i can imagine how that would go:
> be some pleb stupid enough to give fat pussy money
> ask questions, even willing to contribute code
> fat pussy replies: "what's the usecase?"
> locks the thread after fat pussy discovers that the problem is far greater than his programming abilities, because he can't be bothered or because he's not going to get any credit for it
people need to realize that gnome is a dumpster fire and it's mainly due to a few people that refuse to move on and to pass control of gnome to people that know how to code and actually give a frick.
The problem is too much clever code not too little.
> gnome
> clever
yet to see it.
You experience it during the 30 seconds it takes to open pavucontrol.
>coders being in charge of anything
kek, nice one. have you ever heard the name of the guy who coded 80% of gnu coreutils?
pretty sure that was linux torvalds
Red hat is sponsoring Gnome development, this is a nothingburger
donations? whats the use case for that?
If I donate, where do my donations go?
Into some weird bureaucracy. Any real development is either financed by RedHat (i.e. by employees of RedHat payed to work on Gnome) or done for free by autists. Donating to Gnome does nothing.
flights, rooms, parties, sprints, ebassi, legal and merch
Your money gets fully allocated to fly ebussy to hotels all around the world so he can keep freeloading at conferences all while making excuses and deleting features everything works comes along
>donate
Where's the usecase? Won't fix
god bless...
frick this moronic project, the sooner it disappears the sooner the year of the linux desktop will become reality.
I really hope for ibm bean counters to axe funding so these morons will need to find a real job
DEFUND THE GNOME FOUNDATION
Fund KDE
Fund MATE
Fund Xfce
Kill GNOME
Behead ebussy
Not enough of a usecase. Will not do. Closed.
Gnome crashing and burning will hurt the Linux ecosystem. But they 100% deserve it with how they have run things. Fingers crossed that the community bouces back relatively quickly. We only just got to 4%
GNOME != GNOME FOUNDATION
Red hat should just cut them loose at this point and back a different horse.
The GNOME Foundation, after years of running a deficit, is focusing on fundraising to sustain its operations. If you value open-source software and want to support GNOME, consider making a donation. Your contribution can help ensure the continued development of the GNOME desktop environment and associated projects. Every little bit counts!
Do they give any reasons as to why you would want gnome to continue?
Maybe if they implemented useful features in the base Gnome desktop, and not b***h at their users for requesting these simple additions, they would probably be fine. The fact they have to rely on extensions made by the community is dumber than shit because every major release, some always break. Also, they deserve to go under, since they outright refuse to put in an active app taskbar, and a dock without relying on a 3rd party extension.
What is the use case for GNOME?
>GNOME is going bankrupt.
Good. Frick gnome!
CoCs only exist to eliminate wrongthink, not simple butthole behaviors. I wouldn't be surprised if Emmanuele turned out to be a protected useful idiot for M$ or god knows what else. He's not going anywhere.
What are you talking about corruption of champions for
Pop!bros...victory is at hand!
Cosmic gets no victory until it is actually out. If Gnome were to die today then everything but cosmic would be available
gnomesisters.... not like this
This has to be a joke post by someone else.
They would never themselves admit this is the reason.
I imagine that they were not admitting anything in that post. Rather they were using it for sympathy to fet more money and virtue signal. "We are just spending SOOO much money on our outreach program that we are in the red financial. Won't you give us more money because we are such good people:)" is what they were probably thinking. When anyone with a brain sees "We are spending money that you give us on wasteful endeavor and we want you to bail us out so we can keep doing so.". The idea of slashing the program either never occurred to them or was immediately shot down.
That screenshot isn't from GNOME foundation, it's from a phoronix article: https://www.phoronix.com/news/MTY2Mjc
However the phoronix article cites GNOME foundation saying basically the same thing: https://wiki.gnome.org/FoundationBoard/CurrentBudgetFAQ
>The GNOME Foundation had a temporary lack of reserves due to processing the funds for the Outreach Program for Women (OPW).
>GNOME going bankrupt
>COSMIC being developed
the end approaches for you and your powertripping homosexualry, ebussy
>COSMIC
Globohomosexual slop. I'm sticking to Xfce.
That's ok, everyone has their preference
It's not all bad of Qt's commercial model.
>everyone celebrating the death of gnome
You fricking morons, if gnome dies then companies will stop developing stuff for linux because they see it as unstable.
>companies are the driving force behind linux and not the autistic fosstards
grim
Linux exists without the corps and will continue to do so if the corps move away.
The libre-kernel exists.
It only makes sense that product flows from capital. There is a reason why linux started shooting up in popularity once companies started taking a bigger interest in them.
>commie freetard bums having a taste of what it is like going broke
love to see it
Gnome to focus on fundraising so they can pretend to improve gnome for linux now that popos and cosmic is about to eat their lunch and end their pied piper project from microsoft to sabotage linux.
I honestly thought that shit was a volunteer project.
What gave you that impression
Maybe his eyes? Just like mine
>This issue is getting a bit heated. I recommend slowing down

xfce chads report in
mouse fast
Somebody hide their coke stash
Gno.
sorry but I will be donating to the xfce foundation with a note that I would like the funds to be spent on fixing screen tearing. I just don't want to donate to gnome 🙂
What is their shaman doing?! where are all the millions they receive yearly?!
She's literally ebussy pretending to be a woman
Big if true
Maybe spending tens of thousands on "outreach" programs to women and minorities wasn't such a good idea?
what the hell is "staff"
developers?
The entire desktop environment is trash, it doesn't have the customization level of plasma and it feels like a clunky version of IpadOS with the app selector of Android 1.5. Also the guy running the project is a bald ass Italian homosexual that don't even listen to complaints or new feature requests, it took 30 years until some rando IQfygay implemented thumbnails in the filepicker. Absolute joke.
why the frick i should donate to these frickers? even budgie is better and doesn't have wayland compatibility yet.
What's the use case for donations?
Can donations be made for a specific bug or feature?
Can I donate to gnome for thjem to include "use case" and similar expressions in their coc as hate speech or racism?
What is the usecase for funding?
good
gnome is shit
install kde plasma
So amazing when my confirmation bias just keeps getting stoked when every single time a "non-profit" company is a scam.
Did they spend those millions of bucks on sex change operations?
epussy's wife does identify as trans, yes, it's a f2m kind of trans - maybe she'll get a regular dick so she can frick that tiny dicked open-source-mussolini-wannabe's ass
i wouldnt piss on these woke commies if they were on fire. Frick gnome.
only if epussy retires
What is the use case of getting more money?
>gnome foundation hosts the infrastructure needed for the project and organises events.
can't they just move to Github? what kind of absolute homosexual goes to a Gnome Day?
I would donate for gnome to be liquidated, bankrupt and funding a class action lawsuit against gnome, systemd, pulseaudio and wayland for ruining gnu/linux on purpose from within.
what is your use case for more donations?
