🥳 Happy #SoftwareFreedomDay! It's time to celebrate #SoftwareFreedom with the kickoff of the 4th annual #SoftwareFreedomFestival! 🎉 This worldwide event celebrates #SoftwareFreedom over the next 14 days from #SoftwareFreedomDay through the anniversaries of the #GNU Project (Sept 27) and the @fsf (Oct 4). Whether you're coding, sharing knowledge, or advocating, you're part of something big! Let's celebrate together and keep pushing forward! Together, we can keep software free! @rms #FreeSoftware
It feels appropriate to post about #SoftwareFreedomDay on the Fediverse. Many of us wouldn't be here if it wasn't for Free Software. I run both #Misskey & #Mitra which I find both quite fantastic in their own right.
NVIDIA stock to the molten core.

For those communists out there - this is an example of how markets work. you may think that NVIDIA is overpriced, but it's that very high value itself that drives (incentivizes) the massive investment needed to build new and powerful competitors and so to break monopolies. Tax away the gains or central plan investment and you end up with no new competition and so no new innovation.
@iron_bug there probably are good ones. i think the FSF doesn't do these things. the FSFE on the other hand is pretty much as corrupt as it gets.
today i looked a bit into the climate change people here in germany. it's a completely corrupt system. NGOs with sub-divisions who are hired for consulting by the goverment. NGOs financed directly by the EU and german government. NGOs financed by foundations receiving state funds. NGOs making money from cease&desist racketeering. ALL the people know each other and give their hell spawn high ranking jobs in these NGOs. it's "NGOs" all the way down. the mafia would pale in comparison.
> Reemtsma wuchs im Berliner Bezirk Steglitz-Zehlendorf auf und besuchte das Werner-von-Siemens-Gymnasium in Berlin-Nikolassee, wo sie als Klassensprecherin und Schülersprecherin aktiv war. Sie stammt aus der Familie Reemtsma, ist eine Cousine von Luisa Neubauer und mit dem vormaligen Eigentümer der Reemtsma Cigarettenfabriken verwandt.
ach? naja, für die verwandtschaft kann man ja nix..
> Nach dem Abitur zog Reemtsma 2016 nach Münster und studierte dort als Stipendiatin der Studienstiftung des Deutschen Volkes an der Westfälischen Wilhelms-Universität „Politik und Wirtschaft“. Ihr Bachelorstudium beendete sie dort im Herbst 2021. Seitdem studiert sie im Masterstudium „Integrated Natural Resource Management“ an der Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin.
reemtsma sprösslinge brauchen also steuerfinanzierte stipendien. vor allem für so wichtige und wissenschaftlich einwandfreie disziplinen wie "integrated natural resource management". soso.
> Sie ist Mitglied des Aufsichtsrats der Smart Energy for Europe Platform (SEFEP) gGmbH, der Trägerorganisation der Agora Energiewende.
und auch in zukunft gut abgesichert durch meine steuergelder. was ein glück!

states created billionaires by funneling tax money, extracted by violence, into those businesses.
at the same time they create money via artificial inflation, devaluing everyones money in the process. another tax if you want.
all done to finance apparatchiks and bullshit endless wars, killing generations of young men (and women in recent history), just to stick it to whoever is the evil enemy today. maybe just as convenient means for population control.
and now you want to violently rob a handful of rich people because you are plain jealous.
instead of doing away with the giant oppression machine, you lift the machine to godlike status. the only solution ever imaginable is feeding the machine. steadily chipping away any remainders of freedom you had.
rich people never robbed me. rich people didn't prevent me from going to the hardware store because i didn't have the right injection. they will also not send me to war over bullshit, killing people who well could be my friends.
billionaires don't threaten my life, freedom and property or the life life freedom and property of my family, friends or neighbors.
so no, i certainly won't participate in your racketeering attempts.

The Worm Hole, also known as “Serpent’s Lair,” is a striking natural formation on Inis Mór, part of the Aran Islands in Ireland. This nearly perfect rectangular pool carved from limestone and granite has intrigued both visitors and extreme sports enthusiasts. Located off Ireland’s west coast, the site is not only a geological marvel but also a popular location for extreme sports competitions.

Seeing emacs.ch disappear will be a huge blow to the Fediverse. It was a wonderful community full of awesome people. I feel especially sad for Louis, who is a great admin and human being.
@icedquinn i'd probably sit there with 20 tabs and couldn't decide where to start :)
state licensed lolbert and hypernatalist with a breeding kink. never watched rick & morty and i'm proud of it.
don't only rely on my words, read what happy customers wrote about me: "10/10 would buy again", "top seller, great value", "wildly incorrect", "teil des problems", "without imagination", "Repeated provocation using copy/paste.", "if you take a dump in my mentions, I just might notice the smell", "log out and never login again", "Du redest wirr.", "My brother in Christ, this is such a ridiculously dumb statement that I will no longer entertain this silly conversation.", "Auf Derailing-Diskussionen habe ich keine Lust. Finger über dem Blocken-Knopf.", "Wie gesagt, du kannst der Diskussion inhaltlich nicht folgen."
