good job huawei.
Love me some freedom!
?
Richard “big dick” Wolff is an expert on worker coops. Huawei is one
I can’t wait until HarmonyOS becomes global.
we need something free and open, instead of moving from being dominated by one country to being dominated by another country
OpenHarmony does exist of which Huawei’s HarmonyOS is but one distribution.
That’s the spirit 👏
Isn’t HarmonyOS closed? I’d rather not jump from a bad ship to a worse one
It is like Android, mixed source. Android is based on the open source AOSP project. HarmonyOS is based on the open source OpenHarmony project. Kaihong has released laptops that uses its own OpenHarmony distribution.
Oh i see, that’s nice then
to a worse one
This seems to be quite the leap. Elaborate?
Closed = very bad
Android is open source, so you can at least make your fork and find a way to load it on phones that support bootloader unlocking, while harmony is closed so you cannot do that which is objectively worse
As others have said harmony is setup exactly the same as android, open source OS on which a closed source customized flavor is built. It’s exactly as bad or not bad as android is in this regard. The flavor being in control of a Chinese corporation instead of an American one is another issue.
That’s reasonable thank you. I suppose I always took androids open source nature to be largely “theoretical”(?) given googles controlling stake and simply the nature of the mobile market where effectively every android device is running googles proprietary version. HarmonyOS is in reality in the same boat given it has OpenHarmony in parallel to HarmonyOS in the same way AOSP is parallel to Android.

I don’t see how you navigate life without understanding that the real world is far more complex than that.
Yeah buddy, that’s because you’re 12!

Not all governments equally bomb weddings, hospitals, schools and provide political and military aid to countries convicted of genocide. Some nuance is in order.
I think every international company and government is corrupt.
Unlike my domestic companies and government, whose motives are pure and only serve the best interests of the people.

Only some or them are doing genocide and bombing children tho
Don’t be a disingenuous prick
I think you meant some of them aren’t currently engaged in genocide. All of them have.

I mean… yeah? US blocked sales of damn near every US component to Huawei. What else were they going to do besides not use US components?
The point here, which evidently went over your head, is that China now has the technological capability and supply chains to produce cutting edge electronics domestically end to end. No other country, including the US itself, is able to do that.
Oh good grief why are you always so combative? I’m well aware that it’s clearly an accomplishment - but it’s also their only option besides go out of business so I don’t know what the US expected to happen.
Also erm… no, they aren’t end-to-end domestically produced:
The South China Morning Post noted Huawei is reducing reliance on advanced foreign semiconductor equipment
More interestingly, while the Kirin is considerably less dependent on US or Western tech, it doesn’t remove it from the equation entirely, and you still have to look closely at the bill of materials for receipts.
SMIC’s process, however, still leverages ASML immersion scanners.
They’re getting there, but if we go by what’s in the article they don’t have that capability yet.
Your “I mean… Yeah?” set the tone here.
OP has a long history of being incredibly hostile (bordering on abusive) to any perceived criticism - I assume this is why they interpreted “my lack of surprise at an almost tautological result” as somehow being criticism of Huawei or China.
Your original comment essentially read like a bad reddit style anti-china argument. Like, “these dumb chinese people would have never figured out to do this if the US didn’t force them to! No need to give those asians any credit!”
It is now obvious you wrote it from the perspective of “duh, why is anyone in the west acting surprised? They literally have no other option besides dying”
Dude is just your average brainwashed white Western spitting fabricated consent dubbed as “common sense”
This company is currently embroiled in ip theft legal issues and it’s not looking good for them.
gives a shit about IP theft
Thinks it’s not looking good for Huawei
owww, poor companies are getting ips stolen from them. go help your corporate overlords!
embroiled
Anyone and any company can get ‘embroiled’ in anything.
All it takes is accusing you of being a thief a pedo or whatever.
And there you have Brkdncr ‘embroiled’ in a pedo case.This is nothing but the US sore losers using dirty tricks because they can’t compete in the free market they love so much.
Always with this excuse or national security/espionage.
Pathetica lost redditor is currently embroiled in making a clown of themselves on lemmy and it’s not looking good for them
Weird how this is not the case. You could begin by citing court cases and verdicts.
In what way? There are lots of countries outside of the US
Huawei is way better than Apple or Samsung or the like
So it only spies a little, not a lot? Phew…
