Linux is free now but what's to stop them from charging for it in the future?
>>
>>54223085
the license. this is why the GPL is so important regarding the users' freedoms

BSD/MIT can suck my dick

WHAT IS THE NAME OF THE FEMALES IN YOUR PICTURE THAT YOU UPLOADED ??
THANKS IN ADVANCE.

>>54223085
Are you retarded? Read the fucking licences, they legally cannot do that
>>
>>54223142
>GPL stops you from charging money for something

It will be stupid because anyone can redistribute the program for free, but you can charge money
for GPL software

put people do pay money for GNU/Linux.
>>
>>54223085
What the fuck is wrong with women?
>>
>>54223604
Yeah. You pay with your time.
>>
>>54223085
You have the code now, even if they charge for it later you could just fork it.
Also it's licensed under the GPL so while yes, you could charge for it, people who have charged for it are legally obliged to get the source code and they can redistribute it for free.
>>
>>54223085
There already are paid for distros. ZorinOS among them.
>>
>>54223085
this is already being done
there are companies who charge for their tech support services for their distro alone
>>
There is no "they", but a constellation of different devs with different goals. Even if a handful of distros become paid, the rest will soldier on bravely.
>>
Red Hat already charges for it
>>
>>54223085
What the fuck are they wearing?

>>54225752
Isn't red hat supposed to be a more professional, stable, and well built Linux compared to the free stuff out there? For servers.
>>
To be honest i'd probably let the right one shit or step on me if she wanted to.
>>
>>54228128
Dis.

She's a big girl.

>What the fuck are they wearing?

Look everyone, it's the post of a rare neckbeard. One that has never left its mother's basement for fear of showing its tremendous fat reserves, not to mention socialization with the opposite sex.
>>
They'll charge for it when it's good
>>
>>54223085
Ubuntu will never charge no matter what happens.
>>
>>54223583
you are though
>>
>>54228128
>>54228178

I'd let her violate my anus, step it up casualfags
>>
>>54228237
If that were the case they would've started charging money for it long time ago.

You're misinformed.

I don't believe that.

Fork it.

OP do you have a source on this picture? I've never been that guy before I seriously think I know the one on the left. can't tell for sure with her stupid glasses on

>>54228215
ill reply since no one else is
have a great day! xDDD

Technically people pay for Linux tech support.

I don't think you comprehend what means "open source." We aren't talking about your mother's twat.

You could try another website. Bye.

OK faggot. Keep fapping to your inktoons

>>54223085
wouldn't make sense since anyone could just take the code and compile it for free

You don't even have a proper comeback dumbass.

tall women are gross as fuck, there is no reason for women to be tall.

Stop breathing.

Short and scrawny wife = manlet sons
Tall and manly wife = manly sons

see: japan
>>
>>54223085
Nothing. You probably won't make much money though as the source has to be freely available.
>>
>>54223443
RHEL and the like distribute GPL products at a price. Plus, if Torvalds decided to sell the kernel, who's to distribution maintainers wouldnt just redistribute it to their users?
>>
>>54232196
this
i dated a girl a few years back that was surprised i was taller than her she was like 5'9
from what i understood she had issues cause all guys ion the past said she was too tall.
this is when you put your arm and let her know she fits under your arm.
like a good software license
>>
>>54232915
As a manlet who found my perfect girllet I know exactly how you feel.
>>
>>54223085
A fork.
>>
>>54227953
>Isn't red hat supposed to be a more professional, stable, and well built Linux compared to the free stuff out there?
No, they sell support and certification with the trademark. CentOS is literally the same without the RedHat trademark.
>>
>>54228237
So whats micro-cocks excuse?
>>
>>54233709
What's your opinion on CENTos? I get raped with internet prices ($10= 1gb), so downloading and giving it a test run isn't really appealing.
>>
>>54233765
It's good for a server that needs to run enterprise shit made specifically for RHEL.
>>
>>54233788
Well thanks for the info,its appreciated

You're allowed to sell your linux distribution if you like. You're just not allowed to close source any GPL license software.
>>
>>54234457
Wait, so if you make people pay for it, are you allowed to refuse to distribute the source unless they pay $1,000,000 for it?
>>

That's a Stamped Chinese AK (Type 56) That was initially made in 1956.

>>54234524
The fine print does not let you charge that much for source, but you can charge whatever for the executable.
>>
>>54223085
>Linux is free now but what's to stop them from charging for it in the future?
Google translate can't detect multiple meanings of the word "free" for you, Raj.

It's not necessarily free of charge.
>>
>>54223085
I don't give a shit about your question just tell me who the woman is
>>
>>54235312
Why though? She's ugly and dresses bad.
>>
>>54236115
Butt that body!

Because Brawndo's got electrolytes.

I'm not sure. That pier isn't even remotely familiar.
