In context of the many failures, I don’t think this establishes anything.

The original intention of public licenses was never to prevent code from spreading in any circumstance. Rather, that’s the “innovation” of copy-left. We just wanted a way to share our code without putting the people who used it into legal hot water. We didn’t want to control or manipulate people, using our code to extort a particular behavior out of them. We just wanted to share our code. I think copy-left makes sense in certain situations but I don’t think it should be the default option of a person wanting to contribute to culture.

okay but I say fedi-verse

like the GPL successfully enforces

I’m not aware of the GPL being legally tested to where you can claim that; there are a lot of open questions, and it has failed to protect works from AI companies, for example.

You’re taking an incredibly slanted position. There is a whole world of vibrant, viable, meaningful FOSS outside copyleft licenses. Even when one philosophically and politically prefers copyleft licenses, sometimes there are cases where the humanitarian or practical argument favours permissive licensing. But there are many who simply don’t share your interpretation of the philosophy and politics.

For the last two years, I’ve been running my own mail server, ready to cut over the moment google wants to fuck around again. I’m happy NOT depending on my own mail server as long as possible, but it’s clear the free lunch is going to end one day. I’ve started backing my way out of Android and I’m surely not going to be buying another iOS or Android phone.

When I take an uber, I don’t care whether the car has an automatic or manual transmission. But I care what MY CAR has! Especially since there isn’t a shop for my car and I have to do all my own maintenance. Like, init/systemd is a huge architectural change, it’s weird to you that people who depend on their computer to perform whatever function gives their life meaning and viability want to have a functional grasp of their system? That’s a big change to absorb for essentially no practical benefit to the problem domain.

What the heck, mod?

Neither is difficult. Or anyway, I haven’t heard that using docker is difficult.

Fucking sick.

what carnists actually believe

When you zoom out, the invariant story of capitalism is exactly the opposite. Capitalism contains the seeds of its own destruction.

Just ignore all those famous exceptions.

My teeth already have no enamel so I’m game.

Bruxism. Why, what’s wrong with you? Sheesh.

When I was a teenager it was announced that we would soon be able to stimulate the growth of brand new teeth, right in the mouth. I’m almost 50 and I need some new fuckin’ teeth real soon.
