Thx! I’m its original creator, and used it to teach myself android app programming. It also has another core maintainer, mv-gh, who knows much more about android development than me.

I haven’t had too much time to work on it recently, but its open source so anyone can contribute.

Libgen isn’t going anywhere, they’re domiciled in a privacy-friendly country.

Also a lot of books are on torrents, which means they’re safe.

The jellyfin docker is really easy to set up. And then you get the benefit of complete portability.

I’m genuinely wondering how this is gonna shake out. I don’t see the US accepting the defeat of apartheid in Palestine the same way they were forced to in South Africa. Israel is too useful a military base for their intended war with Iran, which the rest of the world has zero interest in.

Looks like Germany also expressed support, France condemned, and the rest of the EU is silent so far.

Great to see even Israel’s allies in the ME speak out against this.

Israel and the US are gonna take us into ww3.

Damn there are a surprising number of maintainers that are comrades and not taking this lying down from the western supremacist cohort.

Linus opened up a massive can of worms and turned this into a geopolitical conflict by acting like a baby.

This comment by Hantong Chen is great:

Hi James,

Here’s what Linus has said, and it’s more than just “sanction.”

Moreover, we have to remove any maintainers who come from the following countries or regions, as they are listed in Countries of Particular Concern and are subject to impending sanctions:

• Burma, People’s Republic of China, Cuba, Eritrea, Iran, the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, Nicaragua, Pakistan, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Tajikistan, and Turkmenistan.
• Algeria, Azerbaijan, the Central African Republic, Comoros, and Vietnam.

For People’s Republic of China, there are about 500 entities that are on the U.S. OFAC SDN / non-SDN lists, especially HUAWEI, which is one of the most active employers from versions 5.16 through 6.1, according to statistics. This is unacceptable, and we must take immediate action to address it, with the same reason.

What an extremely dangerous place to domicile such an important project.

Not in list view, as that’s a compact view that doesn’t have an action bar like the others.

Not sure what the source is there. Does seem low, but Israel doesn’t seem to be taking any prisoners anyway.

This already exists.

I can’t stress how much the western supremacists are off the rails on this one: agreeing with the standard sanctions policy commonly used by the US, of punishing entire civilian populations based on the actions of their government, regardless of how you feel about that government and its actions.

Code is code, the nationality of the person shouldn’t be used to exclude them. ppl know how most of us here feel about Israel but I would never even think of excluding an Israeli contributor to any of the projects I work on.

However you want to use it.

I would never. The idea that any person should be disbarred from contributing to FOSS due to the actions of their government, is incredibly exclusionary. Linus is acting as much like a toddler as daddy USA is.

Incarceration rates worldwide if every US state was a country.

Wholesome banderite chungus

Absolutely, but that was intolerable to the US, which is why they coup’ed its government in 2014 and installed a puppet one.

And never ask why the US has over 800 external military bases, while all other countries combined have less than 20.

Please report those comments so we can remove them too plz.

We haven’t done any releases yet, but no post scores will still be okay.
