>Regardless of him actually mentioning them, there isn't a single thing that they do that he's against. Other than using proprietary software, but only on computers, it's fine if it's a microchip in people's brains.

Stallman is pro-cash while WEF is pro-CBDC. I also think Stallman wouldn't be a fan of digital ID because it requires a smartphone and Stallman doesn't even carry a dumbphone.

@TerminalAutism @ryo At least Linux, unlike Windows or MacOS, doesn't require you to link your computer to a MSN or iCloud account. With that, I'd say that Linux is in the same level as Windows 7 (and before) in terms of respecting users maybe even better depending on the distro.

@ryo @TerminalAutism The meme is made to get clueless computer users to install something that is difficult to install. It's just like the delete System32 meme for Windows users.

@ryo @TerminalAutism No. Install Gentoo is a meme on many technology related imageboards and it's associated with him despite it not being FSF endorsed.

>When it comes to politics, Stallman-san is really an idiot.

Apparently, his mother was a huge progressive activist which could explain his Bernie-tier views. I really don't care though, as long as he doesn't force it on everyone else (i.e force his own personal political views on the free software movement)

As for using a distro without SystemD, how many programs are actually dependent on it? It's the only reason why I'm reluctant to switch to a non-System D distro.

@TerminalAutism @ryo I wanted to see what Stallman thinks of the WEF and I found out that he has cited the WEF on his site before, namely how COVID has "undermined the fight against global heating".

@icedquinn I never used a sprite-editor. I was always comfortable using Pinta or Paint.NET and even then I usually only modify existing sprites from OpenGameArt. I do see the benefits but I wish there was a FOSS alternative.

@ryo Apparently, Tor Browser can't render Arial and resorts to Times New Roman, at least for my website.

And if I could make a suggestion, you should add @djsumdog's blog. He's not an anarchist or libertarian but he does talk about technology and occasionally, conspiracies.

For I2P: http://ryocafe.i2p/webring/
For clearnet: just use one of the 2 darknets, dummy!

@opal Also stop treating localhost:<insert port number here> as a URI scheme.

The Story of GNU/Hurd

The story of GNU/Hurd is a 39 year journey through building something new, that has features that were only "dreamed" about. It is/was an ambitious project whose roots came from the need to develop a free kernel that could be included with the rest of the GNU software stack (compilers, linkers, debuggers, editors and many utilities). Linux shows up and the projects original goals were met by this single event in 1991. Do we still need GNU/Hurd? Can it be completed? Should it be scrapped? That's what this video is about today.
