schestowitz | who can replace him? | Sep 17 04:13 |
scientes | no-one | Sep 17 04:13 |
kaniini | I can think of several people who would be qualified actually | Sep 17 04:13 |
scientes | the FSF is not credible without him | Sep 17 04:13 |
schestowitz | right | Sep 17 04:13 |
kaniini | sure it is | Sep 17 04:13 |
schestowitz | techrights wrote about it last month | Sep 17 04:13 |
scientes | no it isn't | Sep 17 04:14 |
schestowitz | The "FSF Titanic" series | Sep 17 04:14 |
schestowitz | nobody can replace him | Sep 17 04:14 |
scientes | I have read alot of free software foundation interviews | Sep 17 04:14 |
schestowitz | I all add a link to the aricle | Sep 17 04:14 |
scientes | and even the academics really don't get it the same way | Sep 17 04:14 |
scientes | as they are too much part of the system | Sep 17 04:14 |
kaniini | you assume FSF hires from inside | Sep 17 04:14 |
scientes | but computer science is a system | Sep 17 04:14 |
kaniini | if FSF hires someone in the trenches it could be a positive | Sep 17 04:14 |
schestowitz | that would lack trust | Sep 17 04:15 |
schestowitz | RMS has been in it for almost 40 years | Sep 17 04:15 |
kaniini | sure, trust has to be earned | Sep 17 04:15 |
schestowitz | outsiders no | Sep 17 04:15 |
scientes | and those people, even if they say the right things, they rarely get it | Sep 17 04:15 |
schestowitz | people will look elsewhere for guidance | Sep 17 04:15 |
scientes | that's why Linus hates GTL3 | Sep 17 04:15 |
scientes | because he is not RMS | Sep 17 04:15 |
scientes | and AGPL is also quite unpopular (even with me), but RMS can push it credibly | Sep 17 04:16 |
schestowitz | They will look for "pragmatic" and "practical" person | Sep 17 04:16 |
kaniini | I'm salty about GPL3 because a lot of FUD was written | Sep 17 04:16 |
schestowitz | like Greg K-H for Linux | Sep 17 04:16 |
kaniini | but anyway | Sep 17 04:16 |
scientes | and he has plenty of veto with the Debian project effectively vetoing the documentation license | Sep 17 04:16 |
kaniini | FSF will be fine | Sep 17 04:16 |
scientes | but Linus really does dis-like GPL3, and while that is a honest position to take | Sep 17 04:17 |
kaniini | but RMS torpedoed several GNU projects | Sep 17 04:17 |
kaniini | which lead to things like Mono | Sep 17 04:17 |
scientes | he is not a technical guy | Sep 17 04:17 |
kaniini | being a thing | Sep 17 04:17 |
scientes | well, he once was | Sep 17 04:17 |
scientes | he wrote quite a bit of gcc once | Sep 17 04:17 |
kaniini | so anyway | Sep 17 04:17 |
schestowitz | bad night | Sep 17 04:17 |
kaniini | don't freak out quite yet | Sep 17 04:17 |
schestowitz | and rms was pushed for the wrong reason | Sep 17 04:17 |
kaniini | this wasn't solely about Epstein | Sep 17 04:17 |
schestowitz | coup aided by media | Sep 17 04:17 |
scientes | <kaniini> this wasn't solely about Epstein | Sep 17 04:18 |
scientes | exactly | Sep 17 04:18 |
schestowitz | that drove him over the edge though | Sep 17 04:18 |
scientes | and that is why I can't trust FSF now | Sep 17 04:18 |
schestowitz | his site speaks of pressure on MIT | Sep 17 04:18 |
kaniini | sure | Sep 17 04:18 |
scientes | cause I'm sick and tired of those fucks | Sep 17 04:18 |
kaniini | anyway FSF isn't fighting the battles on the forefront of software freedom anyway | Sep 17 04:18 |
kaniini | they haven't for years | Sep 17 04:18 |
schestowitz | I am not sure what to think of FSF, so will be watching closely for weeks to come. They succumbed to bad media. | Sep 17 04:18 |
scientes | that presume that I give a shit about other people sexuality besides my own, and that of my partners | Sep 17 04:18 |
kaniini | largely because RMS torpedoed the projects | Sep 17 04:19 |
scientes | kaniini, they don't have enough technical competence for that | Sep 17 04:19 |
schestowitz | sad, sad... | Sep 17 04:19 |
kaniini | they could have had if RMS did not torpedo things | Sep 17 04:19 |
schestowitz | I think techrights will write a lot about this | Sep 17 04:19 |
schestowitz | I need to remove more typos now | Sep 17 04:19 |
schestowitz | assuming there are lots, I wrote with emotion, not patience | Sep 17 04:20 |
kaniini | I'm just saying RMS was hardly a perfect leader for the FSF board | Sep 17 04:20 |
kaniini | it's kind of bullshit that this is the straw but whatever | Sep 17 04:20 |
aindilis | your article was good, I shared on #fsf | Sep 17 04:20 |
scientes | I don't a shit about any damn beurocracy | Sep 17 04:21 |
kaniini | well then do what is right | Sep 17 04:21 |
kaniini | code for yourself on your own terms | Sep 17 04:21 |
kaniini | you don't need to be part of GNU or FSF to do free software | Sep 17 04:22 |
scientes | well, I would like some enforcement of the GPL hehe | Sep 17 04:22 |
scientes | and that is beurocracy | Sep 17 04:22 |
kaniini | conservancy does a decent job as does SFLC | Sep 17 04:22 |
aindilis | I hadn't realized there was hope he would be reinstated, as I gather when you point out about Torvalds | Sep 17 04:22 |
kaniini | he isn't coming back | Sep 17 04:23 |
aindilis | well, maybe when this witch hunt blows over | Sep 17 04:23 |
kaniini | nope | Sep 17 04:23 |
kaniini | board has wanted him out for years | Sep 17 04:23 |
scientes | yeah, so why don't we push for non-FSF-owned FSF projects now? | Sep 17 04:24 |
kaniini | people who want to do work already have been for years | Sep 17 04:24 |
scientes | I mean, the German court telling the anti-VMWare suit to go fuck itsself was pretty insulting | Sep 17 04:24 |
kaniini | it is asked frequently why Pleroma is not a GNU project despite it being seen as a successor to GNU Social | Sep 17 04:25 |
kaniini | and the answer is | Sep 17 04:25 |
kaniini | we had to bootstrap everything ourselves | Sep 17 04:25 |
kaniini | so why join GNU | Sep 17 04:25 |
scientes | yeah there are no reasons | Sep 17 04:25 |
kaniini | nothing was in it for us | Sep 17 04:25 |
scientes | but there still is binutils, gcc, gdb, and glibc | Sep 17 04:25 |
kaniini | the real question is | Sep 17 04:25 |
kaniini | FSF board have an opportunity to modernize FSF | Sep 17 04:26 |
kaniini | but will they blow that opportunity | Sep 17 04:26 |

mandy | Hello :-) Heartbroken to read of Richard Stallman's resignation. So many thoughts, but all of them centre on the deliberate taking down of a man who has done no crime ... and that people in the Linux community deliberately were incendiary in this is disgusting.

schestowitz | "Do anyone know of other news articles that cover this story without bashing Stallman? The techrights.org story covers the details nicely, but also has a lot of anti-MS ranting that I feel does not have a place outside of the most devout linux hippie circles. Searching through the usual news aggregators turns up the same tripe about "Renowned MIT Scientist Defends Epstein: Victims Were 'Entirely Willing'"" | Sep 17 12:21 |
schestowitz | " | Sep 17 12:22 |
schestowitz | If you do find any, do post the links, but I would be surprised that any accurate accounting of the messages actually exist. Outside of Techrights.org and a few mailing lists, I've only seen the same anti-RMS tripe filled with false statements, lies. I would not be surprised if some of it was even partially preplanned. Even some inside the FSF turned on him, opportunists or moles. The media has been active in spreading lies and | Sep 17 12:22 |
schestowitz | misrepresenting the situation. Either way, there is great damage being wrought against our software freedom. M$ has been finding ways to work around the letter of individual licenses. Here is a handful of their methods: | Sep 17 12:22 |

There are no charges and no active investigation in Sweden, where the “evidence” disintegrated at the first whiff of critical scrutiny. He is no longer imprisoned for “jumping bail”. The sole reason for his incarceration will be the publishing of the Afghan and Iraq war logs leaked by Chelsea | Sep 17 12:43 |

XRevan86 | Those who fight the good fight somehow are very bad at telling whom they should fight. Maybe it's because they fight only those fights where they think they can win, so they end up fighting the defenceless. | Sep 17 12:56 |

aindilis | ah kk | Sep 17 12:57 |
schestowitz | also: | Sep 17 12:58 |
schestowitz | 1. too many articles about it | Sep 17 12:58 |
schestowitz | mine was almost first | Sep 17 12:58 |
schestowitz | about FSF status | Sep 17 12:58 |
schestowitz | as I had a draft ready | Sep 17 12:58 |
schestowitz | so within 30 minutes of FSF press release, 3am my time, I published | Sep 17 12:58 |
schestowitz | 2. there's 'social media' | Sep 17 12:58 |
schestowitz | 3. repetition isn't needed when the reports are everyone | Sep 17 12:58 |
schestowitz | everywhere | Sep 17 12:59 |
schestowitz | for everyone to access | Sep 17 12:59 |

schestowitz | and his bribed-for press was happy to obligate to hide or obscure the 'sginal | Sep 17 12:59 |
XRevan86 | It's not a new sentiment for me. I explain the rise of Navalny as an opposition leader like that: he's the only such a figure who doesn't try to fight other branches of the opposition. | Sep 17 13:00 |
XRevan86 | Those darn communists, mustn't let them get power. Those darn liberals, those darn etc. | Sep 17 13:00 |
scientes | XRevan86, yes, those labels don't do much | Sep 17 13:01 |
XRevan86 | Meanwhile, no one fought Putin. | Sep 17 13:01 |
schestowitz | We'll tackle the RMS thing from another angle later | Sep 17 13:01 |
scientes | that's why the discussion is always more important than any elections | Sep 17 13:01 |
scientes | XRevan86, getting into power, or staying in power? | Sep 17 13:02 |
XRevan86 | scientes: staying | Sep 17 13:02 |
XRevan86 | scientes: I'm not going that far back | Sep 17 13:02 |
schestowitz | oh, looks like our story is now in front page of LXer | Sep 17 13:03 |
scientes | The thing is, I don't know of any non-bobble-head politicians since 2001 | Sep 17 13:03 |
schestowitz | I think it is their first coverage of this topic | Sep 17 13:03 |

scientes | in order to get loyalty from aristocrats | Sep 17 13:06 |
XRevan86 | scientes: That sounds about right | Sep 17 13:06 |
XRevan86 | I don't remember who did what really | Sep 17 13:06 |
XRevan86 | just the gradual process | Sep 17 13:07 |
scientes | that it was he that tied the serfs to the land | Sep 17 13:07 |
XRevan86 | The rights of serfs were stripped from them numerous times | Sep 17 13:07 |
<--sv0 has quit (Quit: Leaving) | Sep 17 13:09 | |
XRevan86 | Even when Alexander II cancelled serfdom, he still pretty much screwed serfs. | Sep 17 13:11 |
XRevan86 | Not a unique situation of course. | Sep 17 13:11 |
scientes | in what way? | Sep 17 13:12 |
scientes | and what were the patches out of, and into serfdom? | Sep 17 13:12 |

DaemonFC[m] | Stallman has a personality type where it isn't possible for him to work with others. | Sep 17 16:27 |
DaemonFC[m] | And if you use the GPL without changing it a bit, then it allows the FSF to change what the license for your software says later, without your permission. | Sep 17 16:27 |
zoobab | GPL is too complex, I had a draft for a "simple copyleft license" | Sep 17 16:29 |
DaemonFC[m] | The whole system was set up so that the FSF could remotely hijack Free Software projects even if they didn3have copyright assignment. | Sep 17 16:30 |
zoobab | few lines in simple english | Sep 17 16:30 |
DaemonFC[m] | Nano left and then came back. | Sep 17 16:30 |

DaemonFC[m] | If the FSF doesn't make a broken fork, Debian might. | Sep 17 16:30 |
DaemonFC[m] | They tried with ffmpeg. | Sep 17 16:31 |
DaemonFC[m] | And cdrtools. | Sep 17 16:31 |
DaemonFC[m] | Cdrkit never improved much and there are still bugs that are obviously never going to be fixed. | Sep 17 16:31 |
DaemonFC[m] | But ffmpeg is much bigger and more widely used and so people complained when "libav" was broken and full of security holes. | Sep 17 16:32 |

DaemonFC[m] | I think Stallman went entirely too far when he suggested a 12 year old can consent to sex with 50-60 year olds. | Sep 17 21:42 |
DaemonFC[m] | I can't see why anyone would defend that or want him as the face of the FSF. | Sep 17 21:43 |
DaemonFC[m] | Their focus hasn't been on GNU in years anyway, as pointed out before. I wonder if the FSF should even exist. | Sep 17 21:43 |
XRevan86 | DaemonFC[m]: But clearly just out of pure ignorance. Which he admitted himself. That's from a very old post after all. | Sep 17 21:43 |
DaemonFC[m] | Most of their software has been hijacked by Red Hat, the Linux Foundation, and Microsoft anyway. | Sep 17 21:43 |
DaemonFC[m] | That's the opposite of what they claimed they wanted. | Sep 17 21:44 |
scientes | people sell themselves all the time | Sep 17 21:44 |
DaemonFC[m] | Did something change between then and now where him holding that opinion was okay at the time? | Sep 17 21:44 |
MinceR | the FSF gave up a while ago anyway | Sep 17 21:44 |
DaemonFC[m] | Western society has turned 26 into the new 18 anyway. | Sep 17 21:45 |
DaemonFC[m] | And going that route is ridiculous in some aspects. | Sep 17 21:45 |
scientes | MinceR, the trackpoint is out of patent | Sep 17 21:45 |
DaemonFC[m] | If the previous generation never dies off or moves out of the way and lets the next one thrive, then society suffers the consequences. | Sep 17 21:45 |
DaemonFC[m] | We're getting to the point where my generation is pushing 40 and is still belittled as kids who don't deserve to have an opinion. | Sep 17 21:46 |
XRevan86 | DaemonFC[m]: I wasn't aware GNU is even a thing at the time, so I cannot answer that. | Sep 17 21:46 |
DaemonFC[m] | We don't deserve to have an opinion, but please keep taking out student loans and using credit cards. Why aren't you all buying houses? | Sep 17 21:46 |
MinceR | scientes: that's nice, but who's making them? | Sep 17 21:47 |
XRevan86 | I guess the movement against bad opinions wasn't as strong back then. | Sep 17 21:47 |
MinceR | Lenovo still has everything it takes to make the good ones, yet they don't | Sep 17 21:47 |
DaemonFC[m] | OMG you're killing McDonalds (despite the fact that I eat there often) and you're treating your pets like kids (since I can't have kids or afford them). | Sep 17 21:47 |
DaemonFC[m] | Or nobody really much paid attention to Stallman back then. | Sep 17 21:47 |
MinceR | it would be nice to have a small standalone TrackPoint i could stick next to my keyboard or something | Sep 17 21:48 |
