| schestowitz | torvalds is probably suffering a lot of (real, actual) narcissistic abuse from these guys. | Aug 01 05:44 |
| schestowitz | i think torvalds himself is a bit of a narcissist, but some people are definitely worse. i think there are plenty of people in open source who have made a career of being worse than torvalds in that regard. i dont think torvalds is a true sociopath. i dont know if zemlin is, but hes probably a textbook narcissist-- id take torvalds over him any day. | Aug 01 05:44 |
| schestowitz | zemlin is at least as worthless as trump-- the kind of person that hates competence and integrity, and tries to destroy it. torvalds in many ways lacks integrity, but imo he has made a career of not letting that negatively affect his coding and project management. when it comes to the kernel, he has always shown (and may even continue to show) integrity. i think getting rid of floppy support is deeply suspect-- i wouldnt be surprised if | Aug 01 05:44 |
| schestowitz | it were under duress and part of avoiding something even worse. gkh is worse in every possible way. i will genuinely miss you torvalds, you schmuck. youre not as bad as these dickheads, and you wont be remembered as worthless-- just as a sellout that did valuable work for both sides. | Aug 01 05:44 |

| schestowitz | i realise its a metaphor, its also one that doesnt convince me. the fsf has long given linus too much credit as an ally. hes not one-- he simply created a work that happened to be valuable to the fsf. it wasnt his goal, his intention, or directly related to ANY PART of his career. linus has spent his career selling gnu out to corporations, particularly in his rhetoric. now, i think to some degree he was used, but he chose that side | Aug 01 05:50 |

| schestowitz | but i do criticise the world for not recognising their own problems, and blaming the usa for things that are their own responsibility. the uk has mainly the uk to thank for boris badenov. i dont doubt that trump helped, most people whose opinion i already respect seem to think so. if this is about fixed elections, alright-- but i presume that boris was elected. they still have real elections in the uk, do they not? they dont have them in | Aug 01 06:19 |

| schestowitz | Dear NaturalNews.com, i never blame the citizens of the #US, i think there are a lot of kind people there and i consider them even friends. The #US “died” as a positive example with the immense amount of corruption that you can see by the killing of President Kennedy (was almost a super star like Elvis in Europe) - the #US killed “the hope” and manifested into “Empire of Evil”. Still a lot of European countries look at the US | Aug 01 06:19 |
| schestowitz | and “copy it” as if it was a positive example to create military jobs by bombing whoever has oil or cut spending for education etc. etc. etc. so yes - i blame European countries for copying the #US in good but also in bad ways. Why not only copy the good ways? thanks | Aug 01 06:19 |

| schestowitz | for me, the usa “died” when someone currently running for president wrote the patriot act, or at least when it was passed about 6 years later. all democracies die eventually-- hopefully democracy itself lives on. i think its obvious to say that germany for example, has improved since its darkest days, and i hope the usa will as well. | Aug 01 06:19 |

| schestowitz | The reason why the guardian got rid of its guardian-unlimited-talk forum and everybody used the "functionality of of FB, is, I suspect, becuase it’s easier to monitor. | Aug 01 06:24 |
| schestowitz | It also reduces posts to trivia - they slip of the stream at the bottom - try and find a post from three months ago - let alone longer. | Aug 01 06:24 |
| schestowitz | Use tags? If the post was tagged, if you know which tags were used… | Aug 01 06:24 |
| schestowitz | Discussions really on take place between thosde who started immediately when the post was current. A conversation could be going on now in a post that’s years old, but no one else would even know it existed. | Aug 01 06:24 |
| schestowitz | With folders, it easier to find your place, and the stream represents current activity. | Aug 01 06:24 |
| schestowitz | There no functional advantage to FB’s functionalty, that I can see.

| schestowitz | the fsf isnt looking at free software as a fight for independence anymore. and its becoming less independent-- letting control creep in. | Aug 01 06:35 |
| schestowitz | its got too narrow a definition of control. the narrowness allows for a very CLEAR definition. but it also limits their ability to talk about more numinous threats. im in favour of keeping the clear definition and not muddling it-- however, to some degree we have to be able to classify lesser threats. | Aug 01 06:35 |
| schestowitz | lets use a metaphor. suppose there is a civil war, and they end it by banning guns. i dont think thats a good idea, but lets say they do it and it works. we can classify a gun very easily, lets not skip to the future where people are 3d printing them, guns are banned and sticks have many other purposes. | Aug 01 06:35 |
| schestowitz | a ban on sticks is not a good idea, and we can all agree on that. still, if you see people marching with pointy sticks everywhere, and people are getting killed with them on a daily basis, is the war still on? of course it is. the solution isnt to ban pointed sticks, but classifying them as a non-problem would be suicidal. | Aug 01 06:35 |
| schestowitz | we cant DEFINE ourselves entirely against the tactics GAFAM are using. but we must classify their actions as threats. the FSF obviously doesnt have the modern tools necessary. which means that it is up to other organisations to deal with whatever threats the FSF tools cant handle. | Aug 01 06:35 |

| schestowitz | The FSF sees all unfree software as a threat to freedom. Always has. | Aug 01 06:35 |
| schestowitz | Maybe you could be specific about exactly what it is that you want FSF to do that it’s not already doing. Or what you want it to stop doing. | Aug 01 06:35 |
| schestowitz | Also, do you guys get all the FSF mailings? I ask because of the word “Belatedly” in the headline. | Aug 01 06:35 |

| schestowitz | plz no strawmanz. people can be totally calm about this and just as effective (some people do take solace in knowing theyre not the only ones upset, i already have that working for me though. i know who else is.) | Aug 01 06:36 |
| schestowitz | this is an ongoing thing david, i’ll let you know when my next (free, public domain) book comes out detailing all of it. alexandre oliva read the one i wrote specifically for the free software community already. but its a long list-- keeps getting longer. if you want answers now, just keep following dr. roy. theres very little of it he doesnt cover already. i cant think of an exception. | Aug 01 06:36 |
