Against Backdrop Of War, Rolling Blackouts, & Internet Outages, Ukraine Is Trying To Digitize Everything
"Ukraine’s highly-sophisticated digital ID, Diia, is used to grant the public access to most government services online."
"next key step in Ukraine’s digital transformation is establishing a central bank digital currency."
It grants governments and corporations unprecedented power. The end of your freedom.
Yesterday the EU council posted. Coincidence? I think...
@ryo This is more evidence why I think the whole culture war was just a psy-op so they can do things like this.
@udon @TerminalAutism @ryo It wasn't long ago that leftist hippies like him were the anti-vaxxers. He also used to be strongly anti-GMO. I wonder if that has changed now that GMOs are considered a solution to climate change.
@TerminalAutism @ryo I always thought his anti-natalist views were his most disgusting beliefs (I think I remember him even saying that women should be ENCOURAGED to have abortions), but this pro-vaccine extremism probably tops all of that.
@fluoride @TerminalAutism @ryo I only used TrueOS which was a fork of FreeBSD that was supposed to be the Ubuntu of the BSD world but it is now discontinued. I could only get it running on a VM though.

>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.
@ryo @TerminalAutism I heard that GTK is dependent on it though.

>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.
