Adopt a KDE Geek

Posted by michael on from the only-32-cents-per-day dept.

sultanoslack writes "In an effort to bring together KDE hackers that are students, unemployed or by other means lacking in hardware and capital with users in that have spare goodies, Adopt-a-Geek has been launched. More details are available on how to help out. Been wondering what you can do to help out? Here's your chance!"

  1. this world has plenty of really helpless out there by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    adopt a geek my ass... just cos u spend some hours of compiling some software...

    jeez how rotten and technocratic have people become... adopt some poor asian or african kid, rather than adding more stuff and efforts in areas where people arent really poor compared to the huge problems in the rest of the world out there...

    donate some money or goods for the real problems, and opensource and the western world will not die because they lack the latest hardware, but the kids and folks in third world WILL...

    morons!

    Come now, everybody knows that GNOME developers are a bunch of filthy rich corporate servants, starting from age 16. Let the non-profit status of their Foundation not fool you.
