@PurpCat @m0xEE Would a PC-Booter program count as an OS? I would just put a simple PC booter text-editor or something like that.

@NitroDubs @ArdainianRight @PraxisOfEvil The real question is whether or not any of the shitlib cities are worse than Gary, Indiana.

@Moon They probably saw that nuke post you made and are afraid that you were going to hijack the plane and crash it into a nuclear power plant.

@Moon See what you just did? You attracted the ethnoglobalist schizo fed.

@PurpCat I wrote an article on why it's a bad idea. Though, as a last resort I think it's probably okay, but it soon won't be an option anymore.

I made a promise that my next laptop would be a Linux one, but they're so expensive and I'm fucking broke. I would ask my Dad for help, but I know that he is a brand-whore for the big brands like HP and Dell and won't trust the smaller companies like System76 or ThinkPenguin.

Seriously, I see ZERO reason to use one of these outside of creating portable devices like PDAs or handheld game consoles using something like Arduino to create controls. You are better off just using a used/old laptop, a mini desktop like the System76 Meerkat, or a modded game console for your home server, emulation station, home arcade cabinet or whatever. Even if you need a SBC for your project, there are much better choices available.

My laptop is wearing out and it's a gamble to get that thing to turn on, so I'm stuck using a Raspberry Pi I had laying around for the time being. Now, I'm realizing how shitty software support is for this thing.

@caekislove The guy wants people not to have children. This guy is Jeff Cliff tier.

I'm not a fan of dogs, but Jesus, how much laws and licenses does this guy want?

What name do you like best for a non-profit #FOSS community for Ham Radio? Think Apache incubator but for Ham plus other open-source services and resources for the community.

FYI I have both the dot com and dot org as well as the hyphenated and non hyphenated versions of the below. Please mention which variant you prefer in comments.

#Ham #HamRadio #Amateur #AmateurRadio #RF #Radio #Foss #Floss #OpenSource #Programming

@ArdainianRight Materialistic nihilism to justify their delusions. What else is new?

Low-key hate how some people equate DRM with digital.
Get your media DRM-free, you can then keep it forever. Interoperability issues are also then so rare it's virtually inexistant and usually there's conversion methods.
And in the case of ebooks, they are also more accessible than a paper book (and much cheaper to ship and keep).

@beardalaxy Actually, I sold more stuff from my backpack (we were allowed to take them to class since our school was huge). Selling stuff was also banned from our school unless it went to a school-approved charity.

@xianc78

"Bust"?? What law is being broken?

We need to express our disgust for police and military in more expressive fashion.
Whenever you interact with a government employee, remind them that they work for a gang of thugs and evil people.

1,039 New Coal Fired Power Plants
"There are 1,039 new coal fired power plants in the works, with the majority in China and almost all in the developing world. Yet for some reason the “climate protests” aren’t being held in those countries."
