    If I take a GPLv3 shower, that means the water has to be open-source, the resevoir has to be open-source, the Earth’s water cycle has to be open-source.

    People are 75% water give or take, so people have to be open source •~•, if people are open source then any plants fed by nutrients of corpses have to be open-source, the whole biosphere will end up being open-source.

    Damn, how to open-source the entire planet in 1 easy step, take a libreshower people!

    Oh wow, so the schematics are published, the repair procedure is documented and you can 3D print the parts yourself? Sign me up for the open source shower!

    Oh you thought open source meant sharing your secrets? Nah it’s actually more common to see secrets in the code in closed source projects than in projects that were open source from the start. In open source software, you need to set your own PP_SIZE as an env var or provide it in a .env file or keyvault.

    If showers were free and open source, I’d use one.

    I dunno. Pretty much the only thing that isn’t open source would be the shower head, pumps, and water heaters. However, those technologies are frequently out of patent, with the “user interface” aka shower head being what is actually proprietary but, that is optional.

    Modern pipes are made of copper and/or PEX. The plans for the plumbing are generally public records. Seems pretty open source or at least “source available” to me.

    Water itself has rather well-known atomic “source code” of one oxygen and two hydrogens.

    What even would “closed source” water be?..
