2016/08/23 Linuxcon 2016, Toronto

π 2016-08-23 01:01 in Linux

After Linuxcon in Japan, we went to the one in Toronto. It had 10 parallel tracks at time, it was a very packed schedule.

kind of weird to see a keynote on Microsoft showing their 'longstanding' contributions to linux

Funny how microsoft was playing all "we love linux and we have for a long time", when they're still actively extorting money for companies that dare to use linux and aren't paying microsoft windows licenses:
