schestowitzhowever, i can forgive him for helping to co-opt free software. indeed i have many times. i dont forgive the political smearing of me and everyone who loves #freesoftware – nor will i until he takes it back. it was dishonest, it was political, and it was personal. but it is fixable, if he simply decides to be honest.Apr 29 03:25

schestowitzmy theory on narcissism as a thing that destabilises every community (such as debian in 2014) is that narcissists are 1-person monopolies. they do not sincerely tolerate real competition (or real cooperation, unless they make the rules) and seek to destroy it by any means possible. monopolies in turn, are narcissistic organisations.Apr 29 04:27

schestowitzWhen we moved servers I tried to open up the wiki to editing by everyone, but the same thing that happened 7 years ago happened again. The wiki didn't just get spammed but flooded (gigebytes of spam), so only admin can now edit the wiki. You can pass me wiki contents as a text file  (no arbitrary line breaks like in email). I'd then file it in the wiki like I did this one two weeks ago: (new page)Apr 30 06:41

schestowitz@tomgrz i really dont get the hate for purism. i get the rest of it-- i want to know how we are supposed to have any of the things they talk about if we arent willing to accept that there are going to be higher prices at first.May 04 19:16
schestowitzi bought a pengpod because it ran without android. i thought a true gnu-based tab would be fun.May 04 19:16
schestowitzbut its a cheap piece of plastic shit, honestly. laptops go for hundreds of dollars. the elite buy thousand-dollar phones now. (if you want to see what the super-rich get, go to singapore and look at the really nice phones.) purism isnt catering to an elite. they seem to be making an honest effort. but lets say theyre not-- at least tell us what you think an honest effort would look like. because id like to know.May 04 19:16

schestowitzWell, I really think that purism is barking up the wrong tree. Instead of spending a whole lot of money de-engineering the Intel ME, why don’t they just work from the ground-up with some cheaper components, such as ARM?May 04 19:16
schestowitzApart from that suggestion, just the idea of GNU-oriented hardware that hardly anyone can afford rubs me the wrong way. Not only does it strike me as elitist, but in actual practice the number of people it can possibly reach is much too limited.May 04 19:17

schestowitzmy opinion (not as disrepectful as it will likely sound, and intended to be helpful): you think you understand the underprivileged, but you dont.May 04 19:19
schestowitzi hear this elitist argument about freedom-respecting hardware all the time. i cant always afford it either. purism is no different from the people who made the lemote laptop that was based on the mipsel architecture. i got one because @Alexandre Oliva recommended it to me (he wont remember, i used a different handle then.)May 04 19:19
schestowitzthat thing felt like a fortune to pay for a netbook. i dont regret not getting a system76 machine though (i had ordered one, and they were kind of stupid about it, and i got the lemote instead. at least the s76 guys werent jerkholes like the rasp pi rep whose terrible attitude convinced me not to get a pi.)May 04 19:19
schestowitzi hear this “elitist” argument about things like the fsf telling people its better to buy a dongle than use non-free wifi firmware. it reminds me of when i setup machines at the homeless shelter. you know, the best thing to use for that was wired ethernet-- thats what we used. the nearby computer store ended up donating flatscreen monitors, we were going to try to build something to hold the old crts they had.May 04 19:19
schestowitzhypothetical elitism is nothing at all. the truth is, people project assumptions onto the poor. lots of homeless people had laptops (nicer than mine-- i like used hardware.)May 04 19:19
schestowitzsure, the machines i upgraded to debian were crappy old xp boxes. they were never top of the line, not when new. but look at developing countries and the homeless and people on disability, and understand their actual buying habits (ive worked with debian and debian-based distros and no non-free firmware with all of the above) before you decide whats elitist.May 04 19:19
schestowitzthe people working on fully free software distros arent always from cushy backgrounds. people who are impoverished are more likely to appreciate reusing hardware, though they wont care if they cant reuse every single onboard component. just like non-impoverished people, a lot of people who can barely afford it will go and purchase all new crap when their non-free binary, wintel garbage starts acting funny.May 04 19:19
schestowitzthats the reality, not the projection. freedom isnt elitist, at least not the freedom the fsf wants you to have. this is a good thing.May 04 19:19
schestowitzas for whether purism is making the best move or not-- i think thats open to debate. what i dont get is what makes people so sure theyre doing it wrong. i mean, there are better things that could be done-- for laptops, maybe not for phones-- yet. are you sure?May 04 19:19
schestowitzin actual practice the number of people it can possibly reach is much too limited.May 04 19:19
schestowitzin theory the number of people it can possibly reach is too limited. in practice, i think youd be surprised.May 04 19:19
schestowitzthe buying habits of the poor (including homeless and fixed income) involve pricey gadgets, just more debt as a result. youre assuming they will only buy cheaper stuff. thats not the whole story at all.May 04 19:19

schestowitz"Freedom is not elitist. But my definition of freedom depends upon what you can actually accomplish or obtain and discounts what you can only hope to accomplish or obtain.May 04 19:19
schestowitz"May 04 19:20
schestowitzwhat youre talking about is just being cheap.May 04 19:20
schestowitzlook-- im cheap. im very cheap. ive worked with the homeless and the poor on this stuff. i talk to different countries, so i know a little about more than one kind of poverty, at least with regards to used computer equipment.May 04 19:20
schestowitzyour definition isnt really fair, and it isnt really about freedom. im all about the zero-dollar-laptop https://freemedia.neocities.org/zero-dollar-laptop.html you have to understand where those come from though-- if you want the next generation of “free laptops” to respect your freedom, somebody has to buy laptops that do. if you make that elitist, you only diminish the supply of free stuff later. this is an oversimplification, and May 04 19:20

schestowitz"Now you are name calling. It is my philosophy that freedom is not an abstraction. Philosophy is maybe too deep a word, but it seems pretty clear to me that you are free in proportion to what you can practically accomplish (or are allowed to accomplish). From that perspective, I would not mind expensive hardware if more people made more money. And as you can see, I’m not a fan of “the ends justify the means”."May 04 19:20

schestowitzNow you are name calling.May 04 19:21
schestowitzim describing what is in front of me. i am also cheap-- i may even be cheaper than you. i dont consider this name calling. my point hardly relies on name calling if i take the same name for myself, and yet make a completely different argument.May 04 19:21
schestowitzIt is my philosophy that freedom is not an abstraction. Philosophy is maybe too deep a word, but it seems pretty clear to me that you are free in proportion to what you can practically accomplishMay 04 19:21
schestowitzthats actually a pretty difficult argument to make. youre free to try, but to succeed (which you ultimately need to do to have a valid point) isnt something youre entitled to do.May 04 19:21
schestowitzmore to the point, you are underestimating what can be be practically accomplished, and creating a double standard for free software.May 04 19:21
schestowitzreally. because the truth is, that people who can afford computers with non-free software can afford freedom-respecting hardware. it just seems harder.May 04 19:21
schestowitzyoure really making a total-cost-of-ownership argument. its a fud tactic designed and used by microsoft heavily.May 04 19:21
schestowitzi realise your intentions are honest and im not accusing you of anything but having a flimsy argument.May 04 19:21
schestowitzits a flimsy argument that has many appearances of a good and just argument, but its still got flaws that im trying to point out to you.May 04 19:21
schestowitzi also used to make a similar argument-- and i was frustrated about it. i was frustrated that the people trying to increase freedom didnt understand the needs of poor people.May 04 19:21
schestowitzbut its still a mistake to think that. its a flawed argument. and thats a good thing. because the reality is that slightly-more-expensive hardware that respects your freedom doesnt really need to cost more. it doesnt really stop people from getting freedom-respecting hardware.May 04 19:21
schestowitzthe more that people who can support it do-- the more it helps people who cant afford it.May 04 19:21
schestowitzthats what im trying to explain, and the point youre missing. but if you prefer to keep making the same argument i made myself years ago-- and ultimately refuted-- which is something to be happy about–May 04 19:21
schestowitzyoure free to do that. im only trying to point out the error. please dont take it personally. its not intended as an insult, and its really not ad hom. though i understand if you think it is. its a side point, and i made it to get your attention and make you think about the rest of it.May 04 19:21

schestowitzmy 50c on this: 1) freedom is expensive. That's simple production economics and lockin model. 2) it's unhelpful FUD to call people who value freedom "elitist". The same argument is used a lot against environmentalists. Or calling people without kids "selfish"May 04 19:22

schestowitzwe should all make it our goal to fix that.May 04 19:25
schestowitzpersonally, i found that unless people have free software they wont appreciate the concept. so i went around looking for the best way to supply them with it (and explain its purpose.)May 04 19:25
schestowitzi tried getting people to dual boot, that worked but not spectacularly. i tried to get people to fix their old machines that were gathering dust, but people tend to regard them superstitiously-- if they stopped working once, theyre defective and they dont want to bother with them again.May 04 19:25
schestowitzso i started collecting old computers, explaining that id fix them and give them away, and that made people happy. when id give a machine to someone i selected, they didnt care as much about what it couldnt do, as what it did “out of the box.” meaning whatever it did when i gave it to them, not whether it had windows or apple or whatever.May 04 19:25
schestowitz“my computer isnt working.” “oh, here try this one. if you like it you can keep it.”May 04 19:25
schestowitzi also think we should teach everyone to code. i started working on that when debian (the distro i relied on for giving computers away) stopped being reliable due to the war on free software.May 04 19:25
schestowitznow i teach people how to make their own toy programming languages and use free software. but i wont support systemd, and ubuntu is becoming pure worthless trash since dumping upstart. what a shame. the fsf and microsoft know that education is key-- microsoft is busy taking over education, and the fsf is saying that educators should teach free software. the fsf clearly knows nothing about education then, because if they did they would be May 04 19:25
schestowitzworking on this-- not just saying it would be nice. they can say it would be nice until the world is covered in microsoft training centres. this is an important (likely key) goal for free software to have a good future. and the fsf is doing so close to nothing about it. we can at least, do something.May 04 19:25

schestowitzonly use syntax that you have to use to keep from going nuts. i managed to get by with just “quotes for strings” and #hashes for commentsMay 04 19:26
schestowitzkeep the number of rules down to a minimum. you want consistency, simplicity, you want to make it so the number of things you have to explain is a smaller numberMay 04 19:26

schestowitzfinally, i dont just offer this as a product. i offer it as a place for people to start learning or start teaching, and i also help people make their own languages (which i use to teach programming concepts while they come up with the syntax themselves.)May 04 19:26
schestowitzi would say “just use logo” but if the person isnt interested in graphics, and doesnt care what moving a cartoon cat has to do with programming or computers, then logo isnt going to work as well. it is pretty much optimised for those tasks. (but youll find it used also for minecraft and app inventor.)May 04 19:26
schestowitzyou have to figure out what would make it relevant to them, if you want to teach everybody. i think tutoring is more likely to each everyone to code than classroom teaching. but both can lend ideas to the other.May 04 19:26

schestowitzphipps has also retweeted this bizarre snippet from david brooks:May 04 19:33
schestowitz“Tribe is the evil twin of community. Community is built on mutual affection; tribe is built on mutual hatred.”May 04 19:33
schestowitzopen source (which split off from free software to sell it to corporations) is obsessed with tribes, and the history re-writing notion that “free software could have joined us, but didnt.”May 04 19:33
schestowitzit paints the differences between free software and open source as superficial, which would advance free software if they would just “put their differences behind” (stop standing for what free software means, and abandon it for open source instead) all of which is the co-opting nature of open source that osi co-founder bruce perens has responded to and called it out on.May 04 19:33
schestowitzdespite the fact that it is actually open source that disagrees with free software, it constantly paints free software as the one that disagrees with it. so its appropriate that brooks (quoted elsewhere, and retweeted by phipps) is criticised thus: “Brooks’ writing on sociology has been criticized for being based on stereotypes and presenting false claims as factual.” also:May 04 19:33
schestowitzBrooks was guilty of “fearless generalizing … Brooks does not let the sociology get in the way of the shtick, and he wields a mean shoehorn when he needs the theory to fit the joke”May 04 19:33
schestowitzwhen phipps talks about tribes, hes probably talking about free software. and open source is going to do this “they wont be reasonable (and just agree to abandon their own goals and do things our way)” shtick forever, until a day when free software is finally, and totally abandoned. osi can suck up to corporations, but it cant live with the fact that free software has goals apart from its own. still, it keeps saying “live and let May 04 19:33
schestowitzlive.” which from them, really means “shut the hell up, let us talk for you-- and stop complaining about monopolies.”May 04 19:33
schestowitzas for david brooks, the idea that “communities are about affection and tribes are about hate” seems just a hairs width away from calling people “savages.” i wonder if brooks is aware that native american tribes still exist, and if he extends this ridiculous bumper-sticker (twitter-friendly) wisdom to those, or if he was simply trying on the word tribe “as a metaphor.”May 04 19:33

schestowitzthe figurehead thing is still largely true. its why i dont put a lot of stock in what people say about trump. hes part president, part distraction. i still think gwb was worse. but impeach the war criminal, i have no sympathy for him or any other illegal warmongers. they should be banned from office (as should pelosi and clinton, for the very same war crimes.)May 04 19:36

schestowitzi view the presidents job much like the queen of englands job-- a bunch of people who are so rich and powerful theyre perpetually out of touch or are simply sociopathic, ask for his signature on lots of bad things and pretend to care what he thinks. his job is chiefly to make it look like someone answerable to the public is responsible for these decisions, and when that illusion falls apart as spectacularly as it does with him, people go May 04 19:37

schestowitzwe are supposed to believe trump has power. we are supposed to blame him-- and as far as collective blame (of people actually taking part) goes, he is responsible too. but if you strapped him to a rocket and launched it into the moon, the rich and powerful would still be okay. and we would install a new distraction, and the status quo would go on. more or less.May 04 19:38

schestowitzas far as i know, britain has its own corrupt leaders. this is not just an american problem, its not just a donald trump problem, this is systemic. sure, trump is a festering boil of a politician. but the disease is rampant, and theres not much point fixing a festering boil if the disease that causes it will go mostly unaddressed year after year, decade after decade. the trump-obsessed world is fucking kidding itself. but by all means, May 04 19:40

schestowitzThat seems a little naive. It may be true, from a strictly legal point of view, but it ignores the reality of the situation. Even if the ICS cannot force an EU Member State to amend its laws, or change its decisions, it can impose fines for the “losses” an investor may suffer because of those moves. In such cases, a government may decide that it would rather repeal the law or cancel its decision than pay hundreds of millions of euros May 05 18:03
schestowitzin fines. Even the threat of losing may be enough to convince governments to back downMay 05 18:03
schestowitzPresident Obama tried his darndest to foist this "corporate sovereignty shit on the US, but ultimately was thwarted when his time in office ran out. Trump is reluctant to proceed in this direction because he has built his entire political posture on the premise of “America First”, and to allow a foreign-based corporation to sue the US government would certainly be antithetical to that stance.May 05 18:03

schestowitzThe Pioneer Valley Chapter of the Green-Rainbow Party of Massachusetts Stands with Julian Assange and Freedom of the PressMay 05 18:57
schestowitzJulian Assange of Wikileaks is a political prisoner and must be freed – and nothing less than the Freedom of the Press in the United States is now on trial. The initial charges currently brought by the US government against Julian Assange are absurd and dangerous when seen in the context of Wikileaks’ publication of vast troves of authentic, ground-level information documenting manifold instances of institutional malfeasance, May 05 18:57
schestowitzincluding systemic war crimes perpetrated by the US government itself.May 05 18:57
schestowitzAssange will be prosecuted – and persecuted - probably for the remainder of his life. Criminals in power have instituted and refined perverted laws such as the Espionage Act designed to hide their crimes. They are now setting to use these laws to devastating effect.May 05 18:57
schestowitzWikileaks has been challenging the power elite for over thirteen years, and has published a long series of astounding revelations. But here in this instance, with the arrest and serial prosecution of Chelsea Manning, a pseudo-case has been assembled against Assange. Chelsea Manning leaked-out large quantities of information vital to the public interest, and along with this was able to release film footage showing actual war crimes May 05 18:57
schestowitzconducted during the American occupation of Iraq. Wikileaks, and Julian Assange were apparently in communication with her during some of the acquisition of this information and its subsequent transfer. Instead of prosecuting the war criminals, our morally bankrupt Justice Department is attempting to extradite Julian Assange from the UK.May 05 18:57
schestowitzThe charge being made against Assange is that he “conspired” to access government computers. But Manning did not act under the direction of Assange. Reasonable people would consider Julian’s part to be essentially investigative journalism: receipt of information for publication is Journalism.May 05 18:57
schestowitzIt is important to the prosecution of Assange that he not be allowed to defend himself. Assange will not be able to bring meaningful information to court: if he can make the case that he has been conducting journalism by supplying vital information about the conduct of war crimes, he will be vindicated. Meanwhile, in order to cover-over the unjust proceedings, the intelligence “community” has activated its agents and assets May 05 18:57
schestowitzcontrolling the main stream media. We will continue to be regaled with many absurdities about Assange through the coming days. But we must remain aware that if Jullian Assange loses his case so does the entire foundation for a Free Press.May 05 18:57
schestowitzIt is the intention of the Pioneer Valley Chapter of the Green-Rainbow Party of Massachusetts to stand-up for a Free Press and advocate for the release of Julian Assange as an innocent man. Any successful prosecution of Julian Assange is a defeat for us all.May 05 18:57

schestowitzive always thought this was a ridiculous overstatement of requirements. if you write something “open source” and it has a community, its open source? if the maintainers retire and stop managing it, and it becomes a dormant project (which doesnt meet these extra guidelines) is it “no longer open source?”May 05 20:11
schestowitzthey keep leaning on interpreting the osd as supporting this notion, but its so successful that this handwavey notion of “open but not open” keeps repeating itself every few years, all the way back to 2008 at least, and as recently as 2017. the problem is that its nonsense.May 05 20:11

schestowitzthe people get a raw deal either way, but now it is routinely suggested that boycotts will only hurt the taxpayers who are already bailing out the corporations. in my opinion, we should just keep boycotting and hope the people will do something from their side (despite their lack of power.) my question is-- what exactly are our other options, if we are concerned that a boycott will only hurt the people? im going to boycott the hell out of May 05 20:16
