  • preupgrade reboot into upgrade mode towards !fedora 14. 1339 packages, 100 done already. #
  • @fontana: Yeah, terribly. And I just found out that most of the bands I liked and discovered through them, cancelled the contract. #
  • Woohoo #elementary #genlist in !elmdentica really pays off. 100 statuses took about the same time to render on !freerunner as 50 did. #

  • @webmink: Would you agree that rand terms leading to rf are so scarce that it’s existance, though acknowledgeable, isn’t representative? #
  • @bkuhn: I don’t believe you really lost a friend there… #
  • @webmink: Yes, but so are many strongly patent encumbered formats and protocols implemented as !fs… just look at mono or moonlight #
  • @webmink: I don’t think you defend rand, quite the opposite 🙂 #
  • @webmink: focus on upstream problem, no software patents equals no rand issues 😉 #

  • @trombonechamp: You’re still mixing ethics with software which makes no sense. Ethics is much broader, cultural thing, not sth of particular #
  • @trombonechamp: to me, sw freedom is a matter of human rights in the digital age, while ethics are a much more personal and cultural thing. #
  • @kanarip: so what web browser will you be using now ? #

  • @zach: gag content is to hide content the user doesn’t want to view. I use regex matching on name screen name and status. #
  • RT @laforge seems like it took until 2010 until I discover the #somafm ‘suburbs of goa’ webradio feed. #
  • @ddevine: he’s the main source of money for ubuntu/canonical so I guess he kind of has the right to point it at a direction he likes… #
  • @ddevine: even if one doesn’t agree with it, one has to give it some slack and respect. #
  • @zach: but surely you know lambda moo, right? #
  • @trombonechamp: OpenRespect.org has as much to do with software as breathing air. I find that framing it as software ethics is #disturbing #
  • @trombonechamp: that framing sort of reminds me of Microsoft’s OpenChoice.org and it looks like some white washing. #
  • RT @schestowitz When all the graphics driver are free/libre, no more will people need to install them at all, let alone suffer issues wh … #
  • @trombonechamp: you’re mixing issues that have nothing to do with one another. Making a sw bomb detonator is related to bomb building ethics #
  • @trombonechamp: Lack of proper focus is driving ppl into confusion state and mixing issues. Respect is globally Important but not sw ethics #
  • @trombonechamp: I never read any critic against OpenRespect.org but my analysis jumped immediatly into that vector. #
  • @mlinksva: or dual licence non code content with gpl and by-sa? #
