@sun Maybe Discourse, but I hate the UI. I only recommend it because it has an API which allows alternative front-ends.

Its developers claim that EntoMilk is a “rich and creamy liquid which looks and acts just like dairy…” The company also makes maggot-derived ice cream. #foodfreedom #health

@dcc Hardware != software.

Hardware has many physical limitations, some which can be worked around with physical modification, while software can be freely modified (although certain types of software running on specialized hardware can only physically have limited kinds of modifications performed).

Of course ideally I would be running a free hardware design of GNU/SoC on a fast freedom-respecting FGPA, but that's not currently remotely practical and the FGPA would still be proprietary.

The shift away from open standards did not hurt these companies in the slightest, and only benefited them. StackOverflow, whose community is most developers, had less than a 2% OpenID usage. Mozilla Persona wasn't ahead of it's time, it was a regression to the mean; a project Mozilla gave up on just like they gave up on ... not being a total piece of shit company that forced resignations of a Christian because of his private religious beliefs.

Do you really think any new federation signon system will catch on, outside of truly open source distributed projects? In the 90s they might have, but today, we have way too many commies who have personal missions to push Code-of-conducts and documentation changes in projects they've never written a single line of code for. The frothing morons on Hackernews will praise such people (the ones who don't are banned) and we watch everything turn to shit under a blanket of ideological luxury beliefs.

I don't want to be negative. I want to believe. But my negative comes from what I've seen with my own eyes. It's a moral panic that is not going away. It will only grow like a cancer.

@waltercool I still don't understand why people think that the BRICS are against the NWO.

@PurpCat @djsumdog @strypey @Zergling_man Was it ever relevant with normies? I think most people never even heard of it. Even the name RSS sounds like something that only web developers or web crawlers need to worry about. I felt it should've had a better name like WebFeed, then people would actually know what it is.

@PurpCat @SockPuppet @Spingebill That's different. They care about safety and getting the delivery, passenger to their destination on time. You are also driving someone else's car most of the time.

@SockPuppet @PurpCat @Spingebill Regardless on how you drive, it's inevitable that you will get into some accident or be pulled over, one way or another. That's why employers don't care about traffic violations when they ask about your criminal record.
