@coolboymew I always recommend Beyerdynamic. I own the DT 880 model. (My nephew inherited my previous DTX 710.). Sound quality is great and they're very comfortable.

@mangeurdenuage I knew, fren, but I felt like stating my position out loud.

@mangeurdenuage No. Trust is for friends and family (and that only to a degree). From science I demand proof, and hopefully clarity in its explanations.

@mangeurdenuage All I got from that lousily written article was that poor people benefit from free speech because they say so. Maybe the paper does a better job at explaining itself.

It's not that I think it's wrong, just that the article could be summed up as: “Even though poor people admit to not caring much about free speech, they greatly benefit from it because reasons.”

@gothnbass@linuxrocks.online Some ideas while reading the text:

* ASDF should include version information in defsystem's :depends-on option, so potential incompatibilities would be avoided. Also, we should be able to diferentiate stable from development versions. This implies that any QL-like system should provide an easy way to get all versions of a given package and choose the right one from them.

* Any system that aims for discovery of packages should support and encourage (or, better yet, force) namespacing.

* It should also be possible to mark packages (and versions of packages) as unmaintained or buggy.

* Any QL-like system should have at least three components: a script, for downloading and installing packages; a website for searching, comparing and maybe hosting them; and an API that connects the two.

@abbienormal According to the comments to the article (which cite the actual GCC mailing list), the problem was that Apple refused to give the FSF copyright over the changes, which is customary for every contribution, at least in GCC and Emacs that I know of.

Also, they could have licensed LLVM as GPL whenever they wanted, but they never did.

@cultured_grug Sure, like the fact that Bolsonaro admited to miss Brazil's military dictatorship and expressed doubts over a democratic process that he was supposed to oversee.

Also, the fact exist that you think banning Bolsonaro from holding public office for eight years is damaging to democracy, but sending a former president to prison on false charges to avoid him from running again is cool.

@cultured_grug Can you please post the link to where you denounced the imprisonment of Lula and the impeachment of Dilma Rousseff? Or at least the one where you expressed your relief when his conviction was nullified due to the corruption of the judges who sentenced him?

@lydiaconwell Of course it did! Look, @trinsec, she did a Lydia! I better bookmark that post. It's part of Fedi history now.

(Which one was it again? The one about the sausage or the scarecrow one? Never mind. I'll bookmark both.)

@trinsec Just shut up and tell her you saw it. It will make her happy.

@lydiaconwell

@lydiaconwell You will probably be the first and we will name that after you.

@mattskala BTW, I follow (and am followed by) people in the instances you mentioned, so we're cool with them. Actually, I don't think we block anyone, but I'm not sure. That was one of the reasons I settled here.

@mattskala I'm very happy with qoto. The only downside that I see is that certain instances (not that many, and not terribly important from my personal point of view) block us due to perceiving us as a free speech one. (We're very liberal in that regard, but freespeechextremist we're not.)

@ola @somos_CAD El enlace no dice nada de las tecnologías que usáis, ni de si el trabajo es presencial, remoto o mixto. Tampoco menciona horarios.

@ParadeGrotesque I believe it had to do with this: https://mb.iotib.net/o/852d5cbc78144b1d8bf39d0485794604

@coolboymew Talk about trivialising a very sad historical event (i.e., Ishikawa Goemon's execution).

@lydiaconwell That was a cool moment, back when technology could still be used to subvert the establishment.
