@SandraDeHaan leuk bedacht maar deze schi tegenstelling slaat de plank volledig mis.

De term #gelukszoeker wordt gebezigd door racisten en is natuurlijk nooit van toepassing op "ons blanken".

@chantal @PartijvoordeDieren smoked tofu, bijvoorbeeld voor een BLT.

Distracted boyfriend, right?

I wrote a patch for the Gnome window manager once, Mutter I believe it was, to make it programmable with Guile. Mutter had Gnome integration so that made a lot of sense to me. It was outright rejected because "we don't want our users to program their desktop" or something. Went back to sawfish/sawmill and a happy #exwm user now. Other than the odd config debacle :)

Male hair is either short or political. Male faces are either shaved or political. Male clothing is either a suit or political. You either wear shoes or are political. Relationships are either strictly (or serial?) monogamous or political. Your software is either backdoored big-tech surveillance or political. Your social media is either big-tech spyware or political. Your education is either classroom and strictly year group based with a fixed mandatory curriculum and tests or political. Your diet is either full of animal cruelty or political.

Being "technical" and thus (??) a-political is just another way of saying you're allies with the oppressor.

*everything* is political.

@GossiTheDog if you didn't move to GNU/Linux when Windows95 crashed 5 times a day, and didn't after the '99 finding of facts (fof) by judge Jackson, what makes you think people will choose privacy, security, freedom now?

I'm sure people will continue to like sensationalism...

@virgil_tibbs @brucelawson let's hope enough of us vote in such a way that we can still do this, in 10y times.

@GossiTheDog nobody cares.
As if using Microsoft was anywhere near a sane choice a year ago wrt privacy, security, user freedom,...

@ekaitz_zarraga @civodul @stikonas musl's anti-GNU/GPL sentiment, but mainly the the Hurd.

@civodul @ekaitz_zarraga @stikonas my idea was (is) to enhance mes lib c so that it can build gcc-4; but that's still in progress for x86, and riscv is "waiting" for that.

@civodul @ekaitz_zarraga @stikonas in any case, it's always much easier to change or enhance a working solution than to get it working in the first place.

@lauren ^Z (C-z) is suspend.

@civodul @jas4711 @reproducible_builds Yet another file format begetting delusions of grandeur and confusing itself with Git.

Dear PDF, you were created from (La)TeX or ORG or whatnot, and that's already under version control. Get a grip.

@civodul @jas4711
The benefits of Reproducible tarballs are a no-brainer to me.

I've been carrying and developing reproducible source tarball patches for Autotools and GNU Mes for quite some time, party courtesy of Timothy Sample.

I'm embarrassed and confused that after over 10y of Reproducible Builds, GNU and Autotools still need to get used to these ideas (and don't seem to make any progress at all).

@civodul @jas4711
Resurrected and finished an old patch set for creating the Guix source tarball (make dist) reproducibly.

https://issues.guix.gnu.org/70169/

@civodul @jas4711 Just posted V2; when this is merged, building the Guix source tarball is fully reproducible.

That sounds like a rather trivial effort, but #GNU standards mandate inclusion of pre-built documentation...and there seems to be a "let's add a timestamp" fetishism that has spread like a virus.

There are several tools to change the timestamp of a PDF; and there is a specification (v1.7 I believe) that mandates the new timestamp to be *appended*. Which all of these tools now do.

Probably @reproducible_builds should also move into standardization committies if we're ever going to get/keep our builds reproducible.

When I said "source code was lost" I didn't even think of this, but you're right: GNU's not Unix!

@aziz @fsf @fsfe @reproducible_builds
Thank you! We (well, mostly @ekaitz_zarraga and @stikonas) are getting very close to bootstrapping tinycc on riscv64. Exciting times ahead!

@mahryekuh
Can we please get rid of the ridiculous browser dependence with its childish GUI and mouse shoving and get back to open protocols and sensible text based (user-empowering, programmable/extensible) client softwares?
