Roy, Roy... If you have so much 'information' against "dangerous lunatic" David Schlesinger I am sure you are looking forward to your trial...
I' on the other hand, believe that you are whistling in the dark because you are currently s******g your pants for fear of contact with this extremely ugly side of the 'real world' (TM) that we call 'law'.

Roy wants to be careful from whom he takes information, I think. He's admitted to libeling me on this site already, so the "dangerous lunatic" stuff is getting kind of edgy as well.
Perhaps you have some substantiation of those claims, Roy? I'd check where that information's coming from before you get _too_ excited over it...

Oh, and by the way, "the Beez"'s reading comprehension skills seem to be as lacking as anyone's here.
schestowitz There's also something about CHani
schestowitz She did not complain about RMS in her blog
Yeah, she did. See the comment here, which is the one I quoted and which neither "the Beez" nor Roy were able to find.
talking about relieving women of their virginity casts women in a submissive role, with men in a dominant role, and brings up thoughts of oppression and (indirectly) rape. (yes, thinking about a roomful of guys thinking about taking womens’ virginity does eventually lead me to wondering how many of them would take it by force.) it becomes less about the non-sexual meaning of “virgin” and more about all the crazy ideas societies have had about virgin women. and thinking about that stuff would make any woman uncomfortable.
If you look at the entire entry—something that's generally a good practice before you begin making pronouncements about it—Chani complains a good bit about Stallman's joke.
HTTPS is becoming little but a transport layer for Chrome-like browsers, i.e. proprietary things with DRM and perhaps attestation (which means you cannot modify them; you'd get blocked for trying)
it's not censorship when the thing you are censoring [sic] is itself a censorship powerhouse operated by a foreign and hostile nation (or oligarchs of Musk's nature)
