schestowitz | [07:36] <MrGreenFriend> yeh, this is another weird story. Cody Wilson had a target on his back too. this story doesn't add up-- so allegedly, he hooked up with a 16 year-old, in a state where the age of consent law is 17. (Also, legal for 19 year-old guys to hook up with 16 year-old girls, in Texas) https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2019/08/cody-wilson-pleads-guilty-to-lesser-charges-will-register-as-a-sex-offende | Aug 11 07:53 |

schestowitz | [07:41] <schestowitz> [07:41] <schestowitz> Before people get too upset about this, they may want to read this [theverge.com]. It paints very different picture than the rather ranty Techrights coverage. | Aug 11 07:54 |
schestowitz | [07:41] <schestowitz> [07:41] <schestowitz> I have no skin in the game and don't care about Microsoft one way or the other, but the guy certainly seems to be pretty dubious. He was prosecuted for counterfeiting Windows CDs in China, with his own emails as evidence. He can claim he was doing it to save baby fur seals or whatever he wants on Techrights, but it doesn't change the fact that he was counterfeiting Windows CDs in China. | Aug 11 07:54 |

schestowitz | what are we going to use instead of Linux? We either need the Hurd, the kernel of a BSD, or a fork of Linux. At least that’s the way it’s headed. | Aug 11 08:20 |
schestowitz | agreed, and i think it will be a fork of linux. im sure most of us would prefer hurd. it could also be bsd. | Aug 11 08:20 |
schestowitz | its important to know that no matter what it is, that the people doing this also have people stalking bsd and anything else. this is a war, bill gates even calls it one http://techrights.org/2019/04/18/mention-the-war/ and he still runs microsoft, just not officially or directly.

schestowitz | but will #linux (“gnu” spelled wrong) users realise this after denying it for so many years? | Aug 11 08:21 |
schestowitz | like #logo is both a programming language and a teaching philosophy, #gnu is both a collection of software and a philosophy about user freedom. | Aug 11 08:21 |
schestowitz | #linux is a kernel as well as a desire to reframe #gnu with fewer ethical concerns. | Aug 11 08:21 |
schestowitz | #open source is a “development methodology,” as well as a form of-- what, denialism? dont underestimate the ability of large groups of people to keep themselves from admitting whats right in front of them. theyve already chosen something else over freedom-- now that theyve gained exactly what they aimed to, why would they suddenly admit that its bogus? bogus or not, it is still exactly what they wanted all along. its the year of the linux | Aug 11 08:21 |
