"Gosh, I sure hope so! It's not like this is an open source event or anything"
Lol, we all have those moments! -
rkzo61617dHappened to me once:
What manager asked: is it open source?
What he really meant: Can we use this in our product without paying anyone? -
bols5915817dWell, think of it this way: you'll never see this guy again. And chances are, you weren't the first to ask that question.
But as far as feeling stupid: I've met many people who think they're so smart they're never stupid. And it is *THEY* who are fucking stupid. -
Condor3669616dI had a similar brainfart.. whether or not I could self-host this or that iirc. Not sure what it was again 🤔 I vaguely recall it to be something on Sunday at one of the booths in building K.. but yeah given that it's open source, I guess that self-hosting is to be expected?

robinj19959613dFOSDEM?
Also, not as stupid as you'd think. What with Chrome and Android being classified as open source. -
linuxxx15539213d@robinj1995 Chrome isn't open source, Chromium is.
Android isn't open source either, AOSP/Lineage are :)

The most stupid question you can ask at an open source software event?
"So, this system, is it open source?"
I asked this to a guy at a stand about the system he was presenting (forgot the project name).
He stared at me with a wtf face and then replied with "....yes.... of course.... this is an OPEN SOURCE software event?!"
I felt quite fucking stupid.
