  Nothing like free software

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Someone Forked Systemd to Strip Out Its Age Verification Support⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Far many more than someone.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨My friend Charlie is back....⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Charlie’s not been around for a long time… Since I tripled my magnesium bisglycinate dose (spread out through the day), along with other minerals.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You're cured!⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Beware the iatrogenic death dealers, and the cowboy-chiropractors both.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Get stuffed, Millhouse⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The chemical lobotomy is apparent.

  Solution space is upstream.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨That's how the world works.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  By design by those who refuse to escape their mysanthropic anthrocidal circular reasoning.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨For the love of the game...⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  When one loves lizards too much.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why aren't we doing this⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Do they all want to go to the same place?

  And, cannot the bats fly? Surely there could be far many more.

  Speaking of flying, lets just have spaceships for everybody.

  “Lower the inertial mass.” – Miles O’Brien, Star Trek Deep Space Nine, Season 1, Episode 1.

  Though isn’t that decreasing the aerodynamics and increasing the friction?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Had tough competition. Since. Not just Dresden.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Wouldn’t that be the reverse-samson option?

  Samsquanch-do!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s been the plan of some all along.

  Collect all jewish peeps there, then have them convert to the new christian messiah, or else boom.

  Not joking.

  Some really have been pursuing that plan.

  Gets rethinking the perception management ploys upon us, eh?

  So it’s not really so original a savvy, as much just succumbing to the genocidal psyop.

  Restored init freedom yet?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨California introduces age verification law for all operating systems, including Linux and SteamOS — user age verified during OS account setup⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Troubling, given how much the put-up-or-hack-up users-are-developers ethos having slipped as more and more come in enjoying the convenience wrapping, with their consumer mentality.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨California introduces age verification law for all operating systems, including Linux and SteamOS — user age verified during OS account setup⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  That is amusing if BSD do that. Being from there.

  Them being armed will make it a lot more thrilling when you persist in asking them under what conditions are you lawfully obligated to comply.

  War is good for business?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨California introduces age verification law for all operating systems, including Linux and SteamOS — user age verified during OS account setup⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yep.

  Plenty bad reasons though.

  Mostly around abuse of the vulnerable, data-mining, advertising/marketing/psyops/publicrelations, pedophilia, pedovoria, disempowerment, indoctrination, dumbing-down, wealth extraction maximisation, profiling, voter suppression, gerrymandering, insurance scams, etc.

  Still struggling to conceive of even a single good reason…

  … So it helps us detect the crooked politicians who would vote for such a thing?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨California introduces age verification law for all operating systems, including Linux and SteamOS — user age verified during OS account setup⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  If only all those agents hadn’t told us to not use the political compass, we might be less lost now. :3

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨California introduces age verification law for all operating systems, including Linux and SteamOS — user age verified during OS account setup⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Ahhh. Neo-liberal.

  Gotta love that Orwellian marketing.

  Neo-liberal. Neither new (neo), nor liberal.

  Basically, same old fascist.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨California introduces age verification law for all operating systems, including Linux and SteamOS — user age verified during OS account setup⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yup.

  Welcome to newspeak, USA-flavor.

  Still drinking hair of the dog to nurse the McCarthyian redscare hangover.

  Layers deep into the newspeak. Liberal, conservative, democrat… all these terms already many contortions and inversions distanced from original meaning. Soon, even “him”, “he” and “himself” too. Then even “is” and “not”, and then the CIA’s work will be done.

  Armed thugs of the state break into every home, and install their bigbrotherware operating system, and kill anyone who flinches like they might be committing any acts of dissidence. There we go. Everybody happy. And of course, you wont own the software. You’ll be renting it. Like everything else. Own nothing, be happy. Maybe they care. :/

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨California introduces age verification law for all operating systems, including Linux and SteamOS — user age verified during OS account setup⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I wonder if that “this distro is not allowed in California” approach is even compatible with the various free software licenses.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨California introduces age verification law for all operating systems, including Linux and SteamOS — user age verified during OS account setup⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  No addresses or entities tied to the distro respins I’ve made.

  That was not a requirement in the software license.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨California introduces age verification law for all operating systems, including Linux and SteamOS — user age verified during OS account setup⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Or they made a law to attempt to ban operating systems with free software licenses.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨California introduces age verification law for all operating systems, including Linux and SteamOS — user age verified during OS account setup⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  No biggie. I got ready for this in minutes after hearing about it.

  #!/usr/bin/env fish
  read -P "Are you old enough?  (yes/no)  " input
  if test "$input" = "yes" -o "$input" = "Yes"
  echo "Proceeding..."
  else
  echo "You are not old enough.  Exiting." 
  exit 1
  end
  

  … What? … Why are you all looking at me like that?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A modest proposal⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Well if it’s working for the Ukraine. …

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨big facts⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  it sounds like you are analyzing how the historical conditions of people’s upbringing affects each generations’ behaviors and mannerisms.

  I do not know how it sounds like that to you. Seems a strong non sequitur. Maybe I’m missing something. Care to elaborate how you made this leap?
