What I would like to see is the Maker: Culture extend itself into the corporate culture.
If car's don't come with source code but someone that is a 'believer' can do a tear down, do an 'open source rebuild', only using the information gleaned, but not hacking the computer itself. Then making an 'open source plug computer' for a car stream. If desktops are 'hack proof', we need to build a new desktop and servers that may not be able to boot some 'protected only' os's. Currently Facebook is a leading power in the opencompute.org group for making lower power (and 'green' in other ways) server boards to power data centers. I wonder if we could do a desktop based on the opencompute.org model? But if this happens, we need to have the fortitude to buy the 'unprotected' version of devices. If I could buy 'open source' TVs, DVD players, I would, but it takes skills and abilities I don't have. _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
