mateyand if you want the fsf to fight for your freedom, do your own thing because the fsf... whateverApr 14 01:06
mateymaybe if enough people do their own thing, eventually they will find a way to organiseApr 14 01:07
mateywhich is probably better than waiting another 7 years for the fsf toApr 14 01:07
mateyfortunately techrights isnt fsf or we would have to follow the safe coc tooApr 14 01:08

MinceRi don't think gemini cares about the details of a video streamApr 14 01:23
MinceRit's just a resource that you might be able to download, though you probably don't want to use the gemini protocol for thatApr 14 01:23
MinceRiirc it can't even resumeApr 14 01:23
matey i don't think gemini cares about the details of a video stream <- nah i was just joking about oldschool vs b&wApr 14 01:25

activelowif i modify any GPL2 licensed library, then without doubt GPL2 applies with copyleft etc,; yet when linking against GPL2 library (without modification to any such GPL2 library or it's header), the license terms are _undefined_Apr 14 02:41
matey2. b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.Apr 14 02:42

mateylinking is considered a derivative.Apr 14 02:42
mateyif all you have to do for it NOT to be a derivative is shove it in a separate file, what good is that?Apr 14 02:42
activelow2. b) contradicts "author's rights", which is the author decides upon the license terms of his _own_ workApr 14 02:42
mateythe author doesnt have a right to determin the license of OTHER worksApr 14 02:43
activelowand next, linking is an _insufficient_ criteria to decide wether any program is a derivative work or notApr 14 02:43
mateyif its not sufficient, then there is a giant loophole that makes the license pointless.Apr 14 02:44
mateyas far as authors rights, the author has a right to choose gpl if they want to use the gpl work in their software. Apr 14 02:44
mateyor create a derivative.Apr 14 02:44
mateythey also have a right to not choose gpl, and not have access to the gpl work,Apr 14 02:45
mateybut they dont have the right to relicense the gpl work (and thats also because authors rights includes the rights to choose gpl)Apr 14 02:45
activelowagain, this misses the question if _linking_ suffices to define "derivative work", which it doesn't; linking is a necessary criteria, yet it is insufficientApr 14 02:45
mateyagain, this misses the question if _linking_ suffices to define "derivative work", which it doesn't; linking is a necessary criteria, yet it is insufficient <- so if you choose a license...Apr 14 02:46
activelowlinking against a library does _not_ relicense such libraryApr 14 02:46
mateybut it violates the license of that libraryApr 14 02:46
mateywhich says what terms the library can be used underApr 14 02:47
activelowno, a license does _not_ define what a derivative work is, in particular GPL2 which does not explicitey forbid linking proprietary, it simply doesn'tApr 14 02:47
mateya license does _not_ define what a derivative work is <- but linking is derivative regardlessApr 14 02:47
matey which does not explicitey forbid linking proprietary <- it forbids non-free derivativesApr 14 02:47
activelowwhich opens a gigantic loophole, for both, undesirable linking, or undesirable sanctioning of itApr 14 02:48
activelowand wrong again, it forbids non-free derivatives for a library itself, which is clearly stated within the license, yet it does not explicitely forbid linking into proprietaryApr 14 02:49
activelowand linking is not a sufficient criteria to define a derivative workApr 14 02:49
activelowthe loophole being, if the definition of a derivative work was strict, any GPL program couldn't be run on any IBM MS Wintel system (typically compilers/libc add proprietary stuff to achieve this)Apr 14 02:50

activelowand anything blow this line is not part of the GPL2, including statement such as "General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into proprietary programs"Apr 14 02:52
activelowif this is an explanation, then it could be contained _within_ the GPL2 license terms, yet it isn't.Apr 14 02:52
activelow*belowApr 14 02:53
mateythe license states what youre able to doApr 14 02:54
mateythe explaination just makes it easier for people to understandApr 14 02:54
mateythe other thing that matters is what happens when these things go to courtApr 14 02:54
mateythat cant be included in the license itselfApr 14 02:54
mateybut it affects our understanding of how the license worksApr 14 02:54
activelowthe cornerstone of proof seems to be, GPL2 programs being available for ms windows, which they can't be, without linking into proprietary stuffApr 14 02:54
mateyif the program is separate, its not derivativeApr 14 02:55
mateyif its linked, its not separateApr 14 02:55
mateyusing gpl software on windows is okayApr 14 02:55
mateylinking works in two directionsApr 14 02:55
mateya gpl program can link to the winapiApr 14 02:55
activelow"General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into proprietary programs"; well, it does _not_ forbid it. doesn't it?Apr 14 02:55
mateythe winapi cannot link to a gpl programApr 14 02:56
activelowand this "explanation" isn't at least part of the license text itself, to repeat myselfApr 14 02:56
matey"General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into proprietary programs"; well, it does _not_ forbid it. doesn't it? <- same thing in lawyerese.Apr 14 02:56
mateydoes not permit = it is not permitted = it is forbiddenApr 14 02:56
mateyremember the default is ALL RIGHTS RESERVEDApr 14 02:56

activelowthe "explanation" is irelevant, because it isn't contained within the license text added to source filesApr 14 02:59
MinceRindeedApr 14 02:59
activelowand the license terms are only clarified upon of what's recognized as a "derivative work"; yet linking into non-free does not suffice as a criteria for a "derivative work"Apr 14 02:59
MinceRalso, afaik they don't give a legal definition for what "proprietary" is anywayApr 14 02:59
MinceRafaik linking is considered to produce a derivative work, bit IANALApr 14 03:00
activelowimagine this, if i wanted to publish (and only then copyleft enforcement is relevant, simply modifying some source text on my local pc does not enforce copyleft, even whem GPL2 implies differently)Apr 14 03:01
activelowyet, if i published, i couldn't at least be certain, copyleft remained intact if any of my lib was linked into proprietary, for both technical and legal reasonsApr 14 03:01

activelowif linking is considered sufficient to define a "derivative work" of any gpl2 piece, then this contradicts the fact gpl2 programs are available for ms windows; you can't have both.Apr 14 03:10
activelowin this case, such a gpl2 program at least requires some proprietary libc linked against, which then "incorporated" gpl2 into proprietary softwareApr 14 03:11
DaemonFCMom's always surprised she has all these horrendous car repair bills.Apr 14 03:12

DaemonFCThings like that.Apr 14 03:13
DaemonFCI decided I couldn't afford another "free" car from mom.Apr 14 03:13
activelowand if it isn't libc, there is dozens of other headers included, almost certainApr 14 03:14
activelowis linking against libc a derivative work, or isn't it? who is a derivative of whom then?Apr 14 03:14
*alextee has quit (connection closed)Apr 14 03:18
activelowlong story short, linking is a necessary criteria, yet it is _insufficient_; and lgpl2 doesn't address this issue either, to explicitely _forbid_ (not permit) linking with a clear definition this sufficiently defined a derivative workApr 14 03:19
activelowif this "explanation" was contained within the license therms, i would feel comfortable with regards to clarity of license terms: "General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into proprietary programs"Apr 14 03:22
activelownonetheless, the gpl2 does _not_ contain itApr 14 03:22
mjg59_activelow: That's what the system library exception is forApr 14 03:22
mjg59_It lets you distribute GPLed code for proprietary operating systemsApr 14 03:22
mjg59_"However, as a special exception, the source code distributed need not include anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary form) wiith the major components (compiler, kernel and so on) of the operating system"Apr 14 03:23
mjg59_So there's no conflict in the FSF's assertion about derivation hereApr 14 03:24
activelowthe uncertainty of GPL2 (3?) cannot be removed, as soon as any such piece of GPL software is touched, which is the critical aspect of GPLApr 14 03:24
*mimorek has quit (Quit: Leaving)Apr 14 03:25
activelowi do _not_ want any program of mine being available to MS/IBM WintelApr 14 03:25
activelowthe only options FSF offers then is: touch none of GPL/LGPLApr 14 03:26
mjg59_When you say that, do you object to the platform on principle or do you object because they're non-free?Apr 14 03:27
activelowtechnical qualities of the platform, legal issues, and US politicsApr 14 03:28
mjg59_Ok, that sounds like a violation of freedom 0Apr 14 03:28
activelowthe presence of GPL inside MS/IBM Wintel realm itself is a violation of the license ("incorporation")Apr 14 03:29
mjg59_No it isn'tApr 14 03:30
activelowthe advertising clause of BSD was neat, since BSD license must be "advertised", yet advertising requires the permission of the author; and this at least is compatible with "author's rights"Apr 14 03:32
mjg59_You're getting very close to a Joerg Schilling interpretation of the GPL, and that did not end wellApr 14 03:33
activelowi think, the GPL2 (3?) copyleft are _weaker_ than i expectedApr 14 03:48
activelowGPL2 copyleft in the hands of some free developer are practically ineffective often, given the fact how often documentation of sources are missing, to support some hardware etc.Apr 14 03:49
activelowand since corporations control alot of what's GPL, it is those corporations who can enforceApr 14 03:50
activelow"communities"Apr 14 03:51
mjg59_Anyone who contributes to a GPLed project is in a position to enforce, as long as there's no CLA requiredApr 14 03:52
activelow^ enforce GPL on ones _own_ contribution derivatives, i cannot sue IBM to release BIOS source codes, verilog for x86 (not that i wanted any of this crap on my desk)Apr 14 03:53
mjg59_No, because they're not derivatives of any GPLed codeApr 14 03:54
activelowsureApr 14 03:54
mjg59_GPL was never intended to make proprietary software disappear, and it's not in a position toApr 14 03:56
mjg59_It was intended to ensure that everyone who received a GPLed work had the right to modify it as neededApr 14 03:56
mjg59_And to share those modifications as neededApr 14 03:56
activelowwhich is moot, at a lower level realm of computingApr 14 03:57

mateythe movement is falling apart on its ownApr 14 07:17
mateyall you need to do is grab a piece and do what you will (hopefully something good) with itApr 14 07:17
leah"I don't think what you're doing is horrible."Apr 14 07:17
leahthis is from an email on 25 March 2021, written by rms, regarding osbootApr 14 07:18
matey<leah> rms talks about freedom. i do more for freedom than he does <- that may be true today, but he created the movement you serveApr 14 07:18
leahthis is why i call rms a hypocriteApr 14 07:18
mateyive spent literally years watching the "state of free software" and ive been focused mostly on its futureApr 14 07:18
leahhe's not privately against osboot. but talks shit about it (merely not by name) by talking about microcode stuffApr 14 07:18
mateyi recognise leah as a likely key figure (one of many) in that futureApr 14 07:19
mateywe need more people doing things like this.Apr 14 07:19
leahmatey: i want to completely smash that world you're dreaming of, because that world has me or someone else as the "supreme leader"Apr 14 07:19
leahi don't want supreme leadersApr 14 07:19
leahi want a collective. a federationApr 14 07:19
mateythat world has me or someone else as the "supreme leader <- not at allApr 14 07:19
leahwe've discussed it before, so there's no need for me to repeat itApr 14 07:19
matey i want a collective. a federatio <- ive been talking about a federation for yearsApr 14 07:19
leahoh sorry, i misreadApr 14 07:20
mateyin fact ill explain how and why i started talking about a federationApr 14 07:20
leah"one of many" is what you actually wroteApr 14 07:20
mateyi misread <- no worries at allApr 14 07:20
leah"many" is the keyword hereApr 14 07:20
mateyoriginally i intended to "fork" the fsfApr 14 07:20
leahdon't bother. let it rotApr 14 07:20
mateythen i wanted to make my fork easier for other people to fork.Apr 14 07:20
leahthe federation will comeApr 14 07:20
mateyyesApr 14 07:20
leahit's already hereApr 14 07:20
leahsomeone just needs to put a name on itApr 14 07:20
leahi've moved the date for launching fedfree to summer of 2022Apr 14 07:21
mateythen i decided that people had no interest in forking the fsfApr 14 07:21
mateywell what youre doing does more to fulfill what ive been talking about than it contradicts itApr 14 07:21
mateyi never imagined that every "node" would be the sameApr 14 07:21
mateyrather that each would have strengths and weaknessesApr 14 07:22
mateyand that the federation (the whole) would fuse those together-- like the movement itself is intended to (even the original movement)Apr 14 07:22
mateybut since forking an organisation is boring and no fun, i figured there should be a "lighter-weight option" even years agoApr 14 07:22
mateyand that these satellite mini-orgs, or "labs" instead of forking an entire org, could join together under "umbrella orgs" which were larger and cared about more mundane organisational tasksApr 14 07:23
mateyof course this is all probably more elaborate than it needs to beApr 14 07:24
mateythe real point is federation itself.Apr 14 07:24
mateyand you can see other people (like leah) arriving at this on their own, which suggests even more that its a viable idea.Apr 14 07:24
mateywhats really great about the federation, imo, has two partsApr 14 07:25
mateyfirst: the movement gains a futureApr 14 07:25
mateythe fsf doesnt seem to have oneApr 14 07:25
mateysecond: the movement does not have to sit under a failing, monolithic org. why repeat that mistake?Apr 14 07:25
mateyof course one of the most important things is that this not turn into open sourceApr 14 07:26
mateymost of my more elaborate concerns are about avoiding that sort of courseApr 14 07:26
mateyi consider open source to be bait-and-switch. i want real freedon.Apr 14 07:26

mateythe choice of "lab" for nodes is no mistake. we should be doing research on how to further free softwareApr 14 07:30
mateyosboot is doing that kind of researchApr 14 07:30
mateylibreboot is failing (as far as i can tell) as a way to get freedom over boot firmwareApr 14 07:31
mateyosboot is a different approachApr 14 07:31
leahhave you ever considered the true role gnu has had in free software?Apr 14 07:31
mateyif libreboot is sufficient, we probably dont need osboot. if libreboot is failing, the floor needs to be open to ideasApr 14 07:31
leahwhen you actually look at history, you'll find that there is another community which also gained traction in the 80s and 90s, on a completely different origin, but with the same goalApr 14 07:32
mateyhave you ever considered the true role gnu has had in free software? <- i consider it the original flagship of the movement-- but one that has failedApr 14 07:32
mateywhen you actually look at history <- im very interested in that historyApr 14 07:32
mateybut what are you referring to exactlyApr 14 07:32
leahBSD predates GNUApr 14 07:32
activelowGPL2 (3?) copyleft is too weakApr 14 07:32
mateyactivelow just became a contract lawyer tonightApr 14 07:33
leahand BSD's origin is literally unix itselfApr 14 07:33
mateyyesApr 14 07:33
mateybsd predates gnuApr 14 07:33
leahbefore linux started, gnu was on the fringesApr 14 07:33
mateyhowever there were two people who more than any other, pushed for bsd to become free (theres one other factor i should mention and will)Apr 14 07:33
mateythose people were richard stallman and john gilmoreApr 14 07:34
activelowgpl copyleft wasn't too weak (both legally and technically) in the beginning, to attract various developers; nowadays it is insufficientApr 14 07:34
leahand it's only a historical accident that the distros used gnuApr 14 07:34
mateythere was one other factor in bsd becoming freeApr 14 07:34
mateyand that account is told be kirk mccusickApr 14 07:34
leahi think if gnu and linux never started, bsd would have been the thing everyone uses. and i think libre software would be in about the same position its in nowApr 14 07:34
*techrights-ipfs-bot has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s)Apr 14 07:34
mateya lot of companies wanted bsd to be under a license that allowed them to put it on chips on expansion boardsApr 14 07:35
*gooseheaded has quit (Quit: Leaving)Apr 14 07:35
mateyso these three factors led to a free/open version of bsdApr 14 07:35
mateynot i almost never say free/open but here i might as wellApr 14 07:35
matey1. companies wanted it 2. stallman pushed for it 3. john gilmore pushed for itApr 14 07:35
mateythe most free version of bsd by far (in policy and reality) is openbsd, unless you count hyperbola (openbsd-based)Apr 14 07:36
leahwhat about netbsd and freebsd?Apr 14 07:36
mateyfreebsd imo is the least free of these, in ways i can detailApr 14 07:37
leahgo on thenApr 14 07:37
mateynetbsd is in the middle but includes non-free driversApr 14 07:37
activelowbsd hasn't got any copyleft clause, stating the obvious; and even with gpl widespread corporations molest devs and usersApr 14 07:37
mateyopenbsd comes from netbsd but has a much stricter policy about driversApr 14 07:37
mateyhyperbola extends that policy to firmware (openbsd has no interest in doing that)Apr 14 07:37
mateyopenbsd isnt a movement, its a project. they dont want to do firmware.Apr 14 07:38
mateytheir policy reflects thisApr 14 07:38
mateybut they dont tolerate non-free driversApr 14 07:38
mateyfreebsd has its package management tied into github. policy documents too. Apr 14 07:38
mateyive heard they have a policy about free drivers, but i didnt spent 10 fucking years migrating from dos and windows just to get all my "free software" from ibm and microsoft againApr 14 07:39

DaemonFC"Buicks offer a more upscale experience than your average Toyota, Mazda, or Nissan car but not as upscale as BMWs, Jaguars, Audis, Mercedes-Benzes, etc."Apr 14 12:01
DaemonFCEuropean luxury cars give you a more luxurious interior to sit on while the engine boils itself to death on the side of the road.Apr 14 12:02
DaemonFC"According to RepairPal, the average annual maintenance and repair cost for a Buick is $608, which is noticeably lower than the $652 across all models and much lower than the costs for a BMW ($968), Mercedes-Benz ($908), and many other makes of luxury cars."Apr 14 12:04
DaemonFCThat's just an average though. When the BMW's cooling system fails, people tend to get rid of the car seeing as how the engine's ruined too the first time it overheats because of plastic and aluminum crap inside.Apr 14 12:04

DaemonFC"A reason for this is because Buick is part of General Motors and shares parts with the company’s other brands, particularly Chevrolet, which makes the parts needed to make repairs affordable and easily attainable."Apr 14 12:06
DaemonFCYes, which increases the size of the aftermarket and makes sure you can still get parts for your Buick!Apr 14 12:06

DaemonFCThe Toyota Corolla at 2:55 has a bad serpentine belt.Apr 14 17:15
DaemonFCThe guy should get it replaced.Apr 14 17:16
*techrights-ipfs-bot has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s)Apr 14 17:16
DaemonFCAny time that belt starts squaling, chirping, making any noise whatsoever, take it to a GOOD mechanic, have them inspect the entire drive shaft system for bad/misaligned pulleys and of course noise from any accessories it runs, to see if those need replaced, and even if nothing needs replaced, get yourself a new belt anyway.Apr 14 17:17
DaemonFCBecause chances are there's something wrong with the belt even if the drive system is fine otherwise, and you don't want a belt to snap and leave you stranded somewhere.Apr 14 17:17
DaemonFCThe Buick started chirping yesterday morning when it was wet out. It went away after I drove the car a few blocks. I was going to the shop anyway, had them inspect the drive shaft system and they didn't find anything wrong with those expensive accessories ar pulleys, so I said "Throw the 14 year old belt in the trash and we'll put a new belt on and see if it goes away.". This morning it was even muggier and more humid than yesterday. I started Apr 14 17:19
DaemonFCthe car with the new belt. No noise at all.Apr 14 17:19
DaemonFCIt was belt glazing on the old belt.Apr 14 17:19
DaemonFCTHe rubber had started to break down with heat and age (more age than anything, because they're never supposed to be on there more than 10 year even if you don't have 100,000 miles on the belt yet).Apr 14 17:20
DaemonFCAnd when it gets wet, that section of the belt starts getting pulled over some of the pulleys and chirping at you, and if you don't take care of it, your car can even start doing odd things before it goes ahead and snaps.Apr 14 17:21
DaemonFCBecause it's suppose to grip the drive shaft and accessories tightly and turn all of them, and when part of the belt is slipping, it's not running those accessories properly until a good section of the belt gets back over them and starts turning them again.Apr 14 17:22
DaemonFCThe S-Belt is actually a huge improvement on modern cars and the latest one to use several belts in there was Toyota, I think.Apr 14 17:23
DaemonFCThey're known for reliable cars, but there's like 5 belts in there, so when it's belt day, you have some expensive jobs to do.Apr 14 17:23
DaemonFCschestowitz-TR, So I need to get new TPMS sensors in the Buick.Apr 14 17:25
DaemonFCIt was dinging at me when they sold it and it says "SERVICE TPMS SYSTEM" but it's not a huge deal, other than the annoyance and I can't just tell the computer "I don't want to spend any money on that. Shut up.".Apr 14 17:26
DaemonFCBut I think I still got a good deal on the car.Apr 14 17:26
DaemonFCCarvana is so ridiculous on pricing that even though the cars seem to be okay as a general rule, and they probably fix it up well enough that it's not dinging at you right away, there's still no guarantees that it's had all of its recommended servicing.Apr 14 17:27
*ziraffep has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s)Apr 14 17:31
DaemonFCIf they want you to pay $11,000 for a car similar to the one I got for $7,950, you're going to be really hot under the collar if they drop something off that's got a few issues and you're right back into the shop getting those nailed down.Apr 14 17:32
DaemonFCRight off the bat, I needed a new remote control, a second key, a bunch of service work, a battery. I mean so that's another $1,700 worth of stuff, right? But Carvana drops off a mystery car that costa $11,000 and you might still need to do some of this stuff anyway.Apr 14 17:34
DaemonFCI'd much rather just buy a car with some quirks for $3,050 less, skip the extra $500 in taxes for having bought it from a dealer that my state would have charged me, and go through some things with a mechanic where it won't cost me half that difference and I get credit card points and coupons along the way.Apr 14 17:36
DaemonFC<schestowitz-TR> like "truth social"Apr 14 17:37
DaemonFCThat flopped big time.Apr 14 17:37
DaemonFCThe problem conservatives at having with their social media is that aside from the Cancel Mob coming after them and forcing them to use their own infrastructure, like software and hosting, there's too many conservative social media sites and it waters down the experience.Apr 14 17:38
DaemonFCIf Gab, TRUTH, and Parler were all like, one thing, and everyone went there, it would do pretty well by user count.Apr 14 17:38
DaemonFCBack to used cars, the used car market is nuts right now, and you can end up paying as much as I did, or more, for a total piece of crap.Apr 14 17:40
DaemonFCWhen I was shoppping around I noticed something.Apr 14 17:40
DaemonFC$6,000 tends to get you a total rustbucket now, especially at a dealership.Apr 14 17:40
DaemonFCThat's $6,000. When I was a young man you could buy a late model car in decent shape anywhere you wanted to and it was like $2,000 if that.Apr 14 17:41
DaemonFCAnd for $2,000 you expected no rust, low miles, nothing huge wrong with it.Apr 14 17:41
DaemonFCBecause when the other guy bought his new car, he got something totally decent for $20,000.Apr 14 17:41
DaemonFCSo if a nice new car is $20,000, you get to sell your used one for $2,000, but when the government starts fucking with the car market and a new car is $60,000-$70,000 out the door, a decent used one won't start at less than $7,000 or so.Apr 14 17:42
DaemonFCThe government crushed a lot of cars like mine in Cash 4 Clunkers in 2009. They ruined a bunch of really good late model American cars and people bought this battery shit from Asia and it's all broken down by now, and the American cars that survived the program can still run fine if they haven't been abused.Apr 14 17:43
DaemonFCAnd the program only brought up the average MPG for the US fleet by 1.2 MPG.Apr 14 17:44
DaemonFCAnd they destroyed millions of cars that had already been built and all the energy and GHG emissions that had been used to build them were now wasted so they could build another car.Apr 14 17:44

mateyto be fair, rms said rougly the opposite yesterday. but the damage has already been done.Apr 14 21:26
mateyhe said give us ideas so we can put them on the help pageApr 14 21:26
mateyits a bit late for that, the culture has ossified (osi-fied?)Apr 14 21:26
psydroid2it seems to be a social circle, not a technical circle anymoreApr 14 21:26
mateyits a mildly (unintentionally) elitist social circleApr 14 21:27
mateyand theres nothing wrong with being technical. you and leah are BOTH more technical than i amApr 14 21:27
mateybut neither are elitist.Apr 14 21:27
mateyits not just about you, you, you. and the people in #fsf dont mean it to be. but they just dont get it.Apr 14 21:28
mateythey dont mean it to be a tight little club. they literally cant help it. they would probably love to, if they had any idea how.Apr 14 21:28
mateywhy cant they figure it out? they cant seem to reverse engineer a driver for their ears.Apr 14 21:28
mateypityApr 14 21:28
mateyeven rms has demonstrated this problem (dramatically so) with regards to hardwareApr 14 21:29
mateythat alone is a huge problem, for reasons you and leah both can explainApr 14 21:29
mateybut also an example of a larger (hearing) problem that rms passes down to his acolytesApr 14 21:29
mateyand this was sustainable for a few decades, and has now collapsedApr 14 21:30
mateyleaving any and all who truly care about such a legacy going forward to pick up and do with it what they willApr 14 21:30
mateyit wasnt my first choice. my first (second, third) choice was for more of the "foundation" to stay intactApr 14 21:31

mateybut it couldnt, i supposeApr 14 21:31
mateyi heard from a (libertarian) friend of mine today, named sage, who i told about the rms talkApr 14 21:32
mateynot THAT sage, of courseApr 14 21:32
mateyshe said bummer, but if its worth doing it will go on (with people doing as they see fit)Apr 14 21:32
mateyrms (like others) made one concession to "open source" in his talk yesterdayApr 14 21:33
mateyopen source razed the temple and looted its contents, and murdered the high priestApr 14 21:34
mateyrms is truly beatenApr 14 21:34
mateyi listened to the talk three times yesterday. i told the chief gnewsance it was meant as a state of the union, but read more like articles of surrenderApr 14 21:35
mateyi know it wasnt intended that way. which makes it all that much sadderApr 14 21:36
psydroid2everything has a beginning and an endApr 14 21:37
psydroid2and then a new cycle startsApr 14 21:37
matey<psydroid2> and then a new cycle starts <- you took my response, but its alrightApr 14 21:37
mateyi will be one of the people who always sees rms as the founder of all thisApr 14 21:39
mateyhowever, even with thatApr 14 21:39
mateyill give credit to those who pushed just as notably early onApr 14 21:39
mateylike gilmoreApr 14 21:39
mateylessig stole stallmans ideas, proudly, and was never shy to admit itApr 14 21:40
mateyi adore himApr 14 21:40
mateylessig is the shitApr 14 21:40
mateypity cc is even farther from its founder than the fsf is from its ownApr 14 21:40
mateystallman stole his ideas too. though im not sure he did so deliberately, it certainly wasnt from open source, and i doubt he realises how far from original his idea really wasApr 14 21:41
mateykingoffrance would probably argue that no idea is original, and i would agreeApr 14 21:42
mateyonly sins are original, and even then very very few of them :)Apr 14 21:42
matey(im mostly thinking of the vatican rag, one of of the funniest and silliest songs ive ever heard)Apr 14 21:43
mateyi dont like torvalds. i really dislike him. hes a schmuck.Apr 14 21:45
mateyhowever, i still think hes better than gkh and i think if he hadnt been cancelled he would have chosen a better successor (and that was the point)Apr 14 21:46
mateyrms too has lost the opportunity to find a successor. he will support whoever they put in front of them, having little real choice or power.Apr 14 21:46
mateyand he will hope for the best. as if thats all any of us can do. and we will be asked to join him in that.Apr 14 21:47
mateybut just as lessig says the point of elections is to choose from a very small pool of people already selected by primaries controlled by moneyApr 14 21:47
mateythe fsf will move into place people not worth our time as stallmans successorApr 14 21:48
mateyand it will be painfully obvious, but we will still be expected to give our support.Apr 14 21:48
mateyat that point it will be good to remember that the fsf has no real authorityApr 14 21:48
mateyit had cultural relevance, and it will still have historical relevance, and (imo) it betrayed us all several timesApr 14 21:49
mateymostly by capitulating to its own enemies-- and then asking us to join it in doing soApr 14 21:49
mateybut, fuck that.Apr 14 21:49
mateyit wouldnt be anything remotely like the first progressive institution to make such a fatal mistake, and become irrelevant as a resultApr 14 21:50
mateynor does progress end with the end of such institutionsApr 14 21:50
mateynor do fake things like open source preclude the possibility of non-cynical alternativesApr 14 21:50
psydroid2you have to be willing to make yourself obsoleteApr 14 21:51
mateyjust because open source is fake doesnt mean every alternative will beApr 14 21:51

mateywe must have new strategies-- they wont be entirely unlike the old strategiesApr 14 21:55
mateybut just like you cant put an ancient copy of apache up and then secure it with old versions of security toolsApr 14 21:56
mateywe need bigger upgrades than the fsf can organiseApr 14 21:56
mateyor is willing to organiseApr 14 21:56
mateyand im not arguing for bloat-- im saying that the fsf is a bloated poorly maintained messApr 14 21:57
mateydont fix whats not brokenApr 14 21:57
mateybut fix whatever has failedApr 14 21:57
psydroid2scientific development always goes on after branching out in several directionsApr 14 22:04
mateyit has to explore new possibilitiesApr 14 22:04
mateymany of which will prove to be dead ends-- but without exploring, youre already at a dead endApr 14 22:05
mateythe fsfs approach was nearly confucianist in its natureApr 14 22:07
mateywe have thousands of years of experience with the limitations of such an approachApr 14 22:07
mateybut we actually hit the limit a few years agoApr 14 22:08
mateyim not saying it couldnt have gone on longer, it was certainly attackedApr 14 22:09
mateybut it didnt stand up to it, as much as they put a brave face on everything-- no one is fooledApr 14 22:09
mateytheyre standing on their own ruinsApr 14 22:09
mateythey refuse to learn from the experience, except to capitulate further, which they were already doing when the attacks startedApr 14 22:10
mateywe learn. we apply. they insist. we ignore.Apr 14 22:11
mateywe have already parted ways with them.Apr 14 22:11
mateynewtons inertia still applies. it drags the divorce out.Apr 14 22:13
mateywe divide up all our things-- thousands of them. the difference from a traditional divorce being that copies are as good as the originals, but we still have to decide what to take with us.Apr 14 22:14
mateyit will be a vaugely similar process if mankind ever makes it out of the solar systemApr 14 22:15
