  • I'm surprised, I just looked it up that Greenlanders are allowed to own long guns without a permit. They're just like the US, but better. Why the hell would they want to be apart of the US?

  • Is the FOSS world in danger of a corporate takeover, thanks to pushover licenses?

    Jump

  • Developers should choose a different license if they don't want to free their code or go work on a project that's inline with their values then. Poor them, I could care less. The GPL is made for YOUR freedom. Anything that allows a developer to not release their code because they don't want to, well, that software becomes proprietary, which invades your freedom. Of course the GPL "restricts" those types of developers freedom to do whatever they want, how else would the software stay free? Don't really understand what your arguement is here.

  • If you go to dark(.)fail, go to Dread forums and head to c/OpSec, one of the top posts has information on how to bypass all Internet censorship. It's a super in-depth tutorial on bypassing censorship in countires like Russia, China, etc.

  • What the fuck is a gentoo?

  • If we're talking about security, the newer CPUs have better microcode. Those older CPUs are vulnerable to attacks such as Spectre. Older boards supported by Libreboot, such as the Haswell boards (e.g., Dell 9020 OptiPlex), which support 100% free BIOS firmware, which is to be used in conjunction with 100% free software. If you do so, you will have more security, freedom, and privacy than any other modern consumer grade computer.

    Then again, these boards are old, so, given the microcode is old, if you're running a virtual machine with a bunch of malicious software, an attacker can potentially exploit your host's CPU and break out of that VM. Of course, determine your threat model. Are you running no JavaScript ever and only using libre software?

    A deblobbed kernel isn't great either in some cases, you may need some patches. For example, someone was able to exploit Intel's iGPU on these older boards and gain complete access to your machine. The only way to fix this is by using a blob. Though, if you strictly only use libre software, this wouldn't be a concern as much so you wouldn't need this blob.

    If you stick strictly to 100% free software, older hardware and a deblobbed kernel might be appropriate. But if you need to run blobs along with other proprietary software like JavaScript, the security provided by something like the Intel iGPU blob patch could be beneficial.

  • Use Debian and install the NVIDIA driver yourself, doesn't Mint include non-free software by default? If this is your average Joe, they probably don't care. In my honest opinion, it should be a mandatory task for every new GNU/Linux user to learn about Free Software, the GNU Project, and libre software. I am not a fan of Mint at all.

  • Zohran Mamdani wins NYC mayor's race, capping a stunning ascent

    Jump

  • I'm 100% for Mamdani, but wasn't the sexual assault case dismissed against Cuomo? Some people really do get falsely accused of sexual assault and it ruins their life. We should not try to normalize calling him an assaulter if it's not true.

  • Can't we just fork it over to something like Codeberg eventually? I know it's a lot to move over, but with time and patience, it seems achievable.

    Jump

  • The whole point of the GNU/Linux operating system is for free speech. Whatever you're trying to do California, it's not going to happen. I refuse to run any proprietary software on my machines. It's astounding that any porch for freedom is just gets blindly attacked by a bunch of uneducated fools. What a boring dystopia we live in...

  • No. Avoid this by switching to a free operating system such as Debian. Windows is proprietary, there is no hope for privacy there.

  • I got heads, I guess that means I have to keep it now haha

    Now, I see another person on here said I should add more, any suggestions for what to add?

    I was thinking maybe a UFO, Alice in Wonderland characters, Dr. Seuss, or the Lorax with some truffula trees :)

  • An Odd Journey on the Train Tracks

    First, you must board the train at 192.168.1.1, a quirky, rusted locomotive that chugs along creaking wooden tracks laid over a digital landscape. The passengers are a motley crew of binary figures, their faces pixelated, shimmering in and out of focus.

    The Journey to 127.0.0.1

    As the train lurches forward, you hear a voice echoing through the compartments: “Make the transfer to 127.0.0.1!” It’s an old conductor with a mustache made of tangled wires, gesturing wildly. The train makes a sharp turn onto an unseen track, rattling your bones and sparking a low-frequency hum in the air.

    Suddenly, you begin to ping the rails, listening intently for the distant rumble of another train—a kind of signal that tells you if you’re on the right track. “If there’s not an active train coming on the line,” the conductor warns, “it’s probably a hardware issue on the tracks!”

    The Strange Encounter

    As if summoned by the conductor's words, a ghostly train appears on a parallel track, its windows fogged with a haze of glitches. You lean over to catch a glimpse inside. Instead of passengers, you see flickering images of memories and fragments of songs. One small figure stands out, performing a surreal rendition of, “Rape me, rape me again,” his voice resonating with haunting clarity.

    In a flash, the figure morphs into Kurt Cobain, strumming an invisible guitar, blending music with the very essence of the train. Just like that, the world spins into a whirl of colors and sound, and you can’t tell where the rails end and reality begins.

    The Final Call

    “Get home, son. Get home!” The old conductor’s voice thunders, pulling you back to the present. You’re jolted upright, realizing this bizarre odyssey has led you deep into your own consciousness. With a determined heart, you reach into your pocket, pulling out a crack pipe. You take a toke of DMT, and suddenly the train transforms into a burst of cosmic colors, propelling you into a realm beyond understanding. Everything becomes nothing, and nothing becomes everything. You are now one with the universe. "I'm home...".

    The End.

  • What did you get fired for?

    Jump

  • Worked as a cashier and manually entered the price for a cheesecake as $2.99 instead of $3.99. I only made that mistake once, and was fired for it even though I worked there for two years.

    They told me they have a zero-tolerance policy regarding this. They even called in one of their security professionals to investigate, pulling footage of me and everything.

    Fuck you, King Kullen.
