schestowitzDear Kant,Nov 10 03:07
schestowitzThe objections raised by Mr Stjerna are understood by all those wanting to understand them and not wanting to misunderstand them. This formulation should be well known to those fit in European practice.Nov 10 03:07

schestowitzIt is correct that the objections have never been published as such by the Court, but they have been heavily commented in the present, as well as in other blogs, and can easily be inferred from publications of Mr Stjerna himself. Nov 10 03:07
schestowitzOn October 18th, 2018, and revised on July 8th 2019, he published a document with the title “The European Patent Reform –Questions and answers on the German Constitutional Complaint proceedings”Nov 10 03:07

schestowitzDear Anonymous,Nov 10 03:07
schestowitzIf it is correct that the “paper” confuses the origin of the European patents with their validation, it would represent a further major mistake in the “paper”. On face value of the "paper", the document clearly put NL before IT.Nov 10 03:07

schestowitzI’m personally concerned about how many mainstream free projects are currently hosted on Github. Getting these projects away from the clutches of the most Free software-antagonistic company there is, seems like a good idea. This is a company that puts backdoors in its own software. Given their penchant for spyware (telemetry) and the precedent of SourceForge adding spyware to their repos, I don’t like thinking about the future of Nov 10 05:46
schestowitzGithub unless there are more people willing to move away from it. Along with the Linux Foundation, Github is bringing all sorts of projects closer to the Microsoft mothership.Nov 10 05:46
schestowitzGithub is a focal-point for a community. Free Software is being hosted there, and a community “served”, but when it comes to control - it is not our place!Nov 10 05:46

schestowitzMost Microsoft work is done by contractor slaves. These were once H1B “guest workers.” Today, I think they are mostly offshore people.Nov 10 05:48
schestowitzIt is easier to gauge Microsoft’s commitment to freedom by judging the freedom they give their users. That is zero. Windows is designed to control users. Digital restrictions in Windows prevent users from copying and sharing files from their own computes. For decades, the company has demanded the right to read, modify, or delete any file on any computer running Windows. This has been implemented in systems like PRISM.Nov 10 05:48
schestowitzMicrosoft invented UEFI to eliminate freedom even when the user replaced the OS. The company hates your freedom with the passion of a righteous overseer. They may take up the cause of one oppressed minority or another for good publicity, but that is entirely cynical if the rights of all are not respected.Nov 10 05:48

I did not vote for HRC but I should have. I was too obsessed with my own ego and I wanted to be able to say “I didn’t vote for President HRC”.

schestowitzit looks like the linux foundation is allowing racists to use the code of conduct to exclude people based on their race-- the code of conduct is being used as a tool of racism itself.Nov 10 06:01
schestowitzi keep saying that codes of conduct lend themselves to hypocrites and double standards when it comes to enforcement. its an old fascist trick-- create as many absurd rules as possible, then use them as a hammer whenever one is needed.Nov 10 06:01
schestowitzwith the code of conduct its the braodness and vagueness of the rules (they cover pretty much whatever you want them to) rather than the absurdity, but that works as well. whenever a broad, vague law (such as those lobbied for by hollywoods copyright extremists or against the 4th amendment in the name of security) is proposed, human rights groups talk about the importance of laws not being either overly broad or overly vague.Nov 10 06:01
schestowitzthe code of conduct is a tool of oppression and exclusion, and in that its a joke on itself and a terribly joke on society. it destroys communities. it is lauded by extremists and hateful people-- people who hate men, people who are racist, and above all, people who have extreme hatred for moderate (inclusive, thoughtful,patient) points of view.Nov 10 06:01

schestowitzone of the nice things about experimental science is that regardless of theories, experiments deal with results.Nov 10 08:29
schestowitzthere are very excellent and useful theories that turn out to have no meaning or relevance in certain contexts. in the free software world, a number of prominent voices are prone to ignoring effects a bit too often, when otherwise-sound theories are leaned on like they are true in all contexts.Nov 10 08:29
schestowitzit doesnt negate the theories, only the scope of their relevance. but some people compartmentalise and say “reality isnt true, it doesnt fit the map!” like when michael scott drove into a lake because the gps told him to. yeah, i would also rely on a gps-- up to a point. and as a rule, flying by instruments is actually better than flying vfr, but if you see a plane with a non-working transponder (it will probably never happen, not Nov 10 08:29
