@Liberty4Masses You would seem to be the first in all my years.

I mean odd that you know of none when even Gary Johnson, who seemingly represents the majority of them, has expressed we need government.

@Liberty4Masses Can't say I agree. In fact I know of no libertarian who advocates for no government at all. They are just anarchists.

Libertarianism, at least in its only effective form, is more practically about shifting the power to the local level.

GPL is a hostage negotiation, or at best barter. I'll give you my code if you give me yours. There is nothing "free" about it in my mind.

MIT/BSD/Apache is true freedom "You can have my code, no strings attached, do what you want with it, just promise you will tell people it is open-source and who wrote it!"

#GPL #OSS #OpenSource #FOSS #Software

Why do you feel that represents a difference of opinion. I agree with you entirely. I'm just not sure why you feel that applies to the GPL.

The GPL does not allow its code to be used in **any** non gpl project. Which is why I say it doesnt fit what your saying, you seem to be describint MIT/Apache license not GPL.

Is it possible you mixed the two up?

@Algot Not sure of the relevance of that reply.

Generally my stance is one which encourages different "goals". Since MIT/Apache/BSD licenses can be freely used, even inside GPL projects, it ensures that various "goals" can be rectified. The same isnt true of GPL which sadly doesnt cater do differing goals.

@Algot How ya figure, open-source seems to be a rather useful and meaningful term.

Personally as an open-source contributor I refuse to contribute to GPL due to its vital nature. As a license it simply doesnt work or play well with others.

Generally MIT like licenses like BSD and Apache are the way to go. They can thankfully play nice with each other, and unlike GPL free means free (As in freedom).

@mundauf 2 o'clock here too. But I figured those in the USA are just waking up.

Good morning Fediverse!

@snder I suspect that every single person on the gab network has an issue with gargron. Those guys dont exactly have a reputation of maturity.

@snder
No havent seen the video. Do you have a link or can you tell me what racist remarks he made in the video?

I'm confused why you think the account is his. Yes it is a closed sign-up instance but as far as I know all the other accounts on the server are real people. He allows limited signup to the dev instance for people from the old Gab network,

With that said if the account is making racist posts one would expect him to moderate it. But as far as i know they are a free speech instance. So they simply dont moderate. So I still wouldn't blame him but rather the individual.

With that said if the individual is racist I will silence them on my instance. Going to look through the account's posts now. Any specific racist posts you'd be able to forward?

@snder Oh no what did he say or do that expressed racism? Been keeping an eye on his account in case that happened to be the case. I'd appreciate an example or to know why you say that for reference (I dont know much about rob's past)

Shit they even replace rain with unnatural chemical riddled lab water. This has to end!

Joe is a little too happy, I'm scared.

@drewfer A Pilot 912 with falcon nib with a custom regrind down to needlepoint and with extra flex added (Called a Mottishaw Spencerian Modification).

There are a handful of modifications you can get done across many different pens. About 4 or 5 different models I know of off hand accept this particular modification. You usually pay about 100 euros for the modification on top of the price of the pen itself. You can get this from nibs.com

If you want a cheaper option that can get a similar quality script, but is just more likely to railroad, so you get your money's worth, you can make a frankenpen. Basically buy an ultraflex nib and a ebonite feed from fountain pen revolution and insert it into a different pen body. My personal favorite is the 5.5 nib and ebonite feed which fits perfectly into a TWSBI Diamond body. I love clear demonstrators.

@doliu666 Happy to

Ok changed my mind 5 minutes later. THIS will be my new signature.

There is something to be said for security through obscurity.
