Running FOSS on closed source systems. Classic.
Running Linux on closed source hardware. Classic.
I bet you aren't even using your own open RISC-V based SBC, with fully open-source peripherals. Is your computer monitor even running an open-source firmware or are you just a FOSS poser?
Using computers with closed source biology. Classic.
I bet you haven't even engineered your own DNA-II, fully-sequenced, libre-licensed microbiome with open source biochemical pathways. Are your eyes even running an open-source neural firmware, or are you just a FOSS poser?
Hey now, biology is pretty definitively open source. Every generation produces small patches of varying quality (mutations) and for most organisms the source is freely distributed to create new builds (reproduction). I mean if no one is downloading your genetic repo that's largely a you problem (natural selection) not a biology problem.
The documentation fucking sucks tho,
Yeah, but the interpreter is pretty universal, if sometimes buggy.
