| schestowitz__ | " | Jan 28 11:52 |
| schestowitz__ | I have a different perspective on that. TV is proven to be a mind and social control technology. TV is design to create a state of apathy conducive to social conformity and is addictive. It is like having someone on low doses of morphine every day You will get use to it, dependent on in, and it will decrease your ability to make use of your cognitive functions and have a critical stance. | Jan 28 11:52 |
| schestowitz__ | Saying that "boredom is a symptom of dissatisfaction with oneself", is missing the real point and will only induced a guilty feeling on those that are not awake. It is like saying that drug addicts are addicts because they are low level people. The state of addiction is created, is a social constructed environment (remember the opium wars by the British in China?) and although I don't watch TV I am not against of those who do, on the | Jan 28 11:52 |
| schestowitz__ | contrary, I am compassionate with their "addiction" in way that I believe that, given the right circumstances, they will be able to awake and free themselves. I firmly believe that I want to be part of the "circumstances" that can help to induce awakening. | Jan 28 11:52 |

| schestowitz__ | In 2009 or thereabouts Techrights was on a campaign to shame Samsung for GPL violations. Ryan even called them up repeatedly and spoke his way up the management. | Jan 30 13:28 |
| schestowitz__ | Bradley came across as hostile towards any such efforts that he is not personally involved in (profits from) and generally I went sour with him in the later day of identi.ca because he acted quite pretentgious and self-rightenous, and people sided with me. | Jan 30 13:28 |
| schestowitz__ | So, in conclusion, I think Bradley is not the motal compass here. We need to take some of it into our hands and shame companies to really drive them towards compliance. Recall MS and hyper-V GPL violations.... | Jan 30 13:28 |

| schestowitz__ | " | Jan 28 11:52 |
| schestowitz__ | I have a different perspective on that. TV is proven to be a mind and social control technology. TV is design to create a state of apathy conducive to social conformity and is addictive. It is like having someone on low doses of morphine every day You will get use to it, dependent on in, and it will decrease your ability to make use of your cognitive functions and have a critical stance. | Jan 28 11:52 |
| schestowitz__ | Saying that "boredom is a symptom of dissatisfaction with oneself", is missing the real point and will only induced a guilty feeling on those that are not awake. It is like saying that drug addicts are addicts because they are low level people. The state of addiction is created, is a social constructed environment (remember the opium wars by the British in China?) and although I don't watch TV I am not against of those who do, on the | Jan 28 11:52 |
| schestowitz__ | contrary, I am compassionate with their "addiction" in way that I believe that, given the right circumstances, they will be able to awake and free themselves. I firmly believe that I want to be part of the "circumstances" that can help to induce awakening. | Jan 28 11:52 |

| schestowitz_bed2 | That's good for Simon Phipps and a good sign for the free software community.

| schestowitz_bed2 | Well, yes the four freedoms are human rights and your rights are not divisible. When someone has power over one area of your life, they have power over all of it.

| schestowitz__ | In 2009 or thereabouts Techrights was on a campaign to shame Samsung for GPL violations. Ryan even called them up repeatedly and spoke his way up the management. | Jan 30 13:28 |
| schestowitz__ | Bradley came across as hostile towards any such efforts that he is not personally involved in (profits from) and generally I went sour with him in the later day of identi.ca because he acted quite pretentgious and self-rightenous, and people sided with me. | Jan 30 13:28 |
| schestowitz__ | So, in conclusion, I think Bradley is not the motal compass here. We need to take some of it into our hands and shame companies to really drive them towards compliance. Recall MS and hyper-V GPL violations.... | Jan 30 13:28 |

| schestowitz__ | Let's spend the next few hours focusing on tuxmachines migration. I began doing it a few hours ago and so far it looks promising, I might make it on time. I have already drafted a message for DNS switching, checked apache confs, installed deps, DB, etc. I'm sure one or two things will go wrong; it's a large site with some complexity; the DBs are accessed as root (ick!), which is not secure... but I don't have many other DBs. | Jan 30 19:12 |
