This is good, but people really should learn how to use GnuPG and other independent tools. Too many of us trusted a company that vowed not to be evil, and look where we are now. #privacy #security #encryption

We the people (including men and women) are stronger than these autocrats who believe it is their divine right to tear others down because a world view being expressed is different from their own.

Richard Stallman is a Human Being who deserves our respect not simply for reputation but because he has not actually done anything wrong.

Expressing an oppinion even if controversial is not an excuse to treat another Human being this way.

I will not join the witch hunt take down campaign that some truly disturbed members of society have taken it upon themselves to do.

We can take back our Liberty by not going down to the level of these despicable people who take pleasure in lying and hurting men and frankly the women who support us.

Just remember folks, this could easily happen to you or me so whilst many of us will leave the FSF related groups, which is fine, we must never stop speaking up.

Like Snowden said, Speak not because its safe but because it is the right thing to do. This applies to us Men too!

Courage is contagious!

What is your favorite season of the year?
OK. To make this fair, please comment how cold or hot it gets at that time of the year.

Cool tip that I relearned after forgetting how to do it.
If you need to search for a PDF, DOC or Powerpoint file from the Internet or a specific web domain you can use this syntax which will decrease the time it takes to get what you want enormously.

1. go to duckduckgo.com
2. type cats filetype:pdf
and then duckduckgo will search the web specifically for PDF's about Cats.

Damn this would be so cool if we could do this for other filetypes like AUDIO and VIDEO.

Or atleast we should be able to search for the Free Software equivalent formats like ODT and ODP.

I hate it when people use the term "rule of law" to justify authoritarian behaviour. Or when they say "No one is above the law".
Is it not funny that the people who use those terms are often if not always the ones breaking them, if not using loop wholes to get around laws that everyone else has to follow?

For those delusional CCP sympathisers who keep refering to 1 China 2 Systems when trying to argue against the Hong Kong people, take a look at this video.
Do you call this two systems?
Two systems is dead.
It is time for full autonomy because this is not the way of a civil society and that is why many of The Hong Kong people do not want to be part of the same Communist ruled China.

Saturday next week is Software Freedom Day #SFD <3



In #Berlin we will join the celebrations between 14h and 18h at the venue of IN-Berlin / BeLUG at Lehrter StraรŸe 53 with talks, cake and fun conversations.


Lehrter StraรŸe 53, Berlin



If you are interested in #FreeSoftware / #FLOSS and happen to be in Berlin, why not join the celebration? wiki.fsfe.org/Events/Berlin/20โ€ฆ

Chances are good that Iโ€™ll be in Berlin for a few days in January. Any suggestions on things to do/see/eat there?

@TheGnuMaster I don't know you, but I will tell you what I use when I'm powering through my programming exercises.

Caravan Palace, Daft Punk (pre-RAM), Justice, and Neil Cicierega.

Back when I was having to expand my JS, PHP, and SQL knowledge on a daily basis, or lose my job, I relied on:

Bjork, Aphex Twin, and Ghost.

It really depends on what you're studying, too. But, in general, what is best is music that is surprising. Repetitive is good for staying in a groove. Doing things you already know.

If you need to actually learn something new, it's best to associate it with either something new, or something you rarely listen to.

Nowadays, when I need to focus, I use bands like 40 Watt Sun, The Sword, Mahr, and Mgla.

In 2010, Eben Moglen made a bold claim:

"Mr. Zuckerberg has attained an unenviable record: he has done more harm to the human race than anybody else his age."

And people laughed.

But it turned out to be a prophetic claim.
