  • You cannot state : "society must choose free software" : then its not free anymore to choose.

  • Fundamentally I agree with Stallman, however it's insane to expect the average user to be capable of using what amounts to crippled linux distros - and anyone switching to it having to *pay for* new peripherals to avoid using drivers that don't cost them anything anyway, especially since even the nerdiest hackers are unlikely to want to change that stuff, and if they do then they have the skills to write their own anyhow.... It's just another form of confinement.

  • Problem is "Linux" is a nicer word to say than "Gnu", so sorry Stallman, it's getting called Linux by me lol, though I will mention the GNU and such... Grudgingly.

  • I also refuse to own a mobile phone, tracking devices. Unfortunately I don't know how to stop my ISP from logging/tracking my every online move, if it's even possible.

  • This should be mandatory viewing for everyone who uses a computer (ie: everyone).

  • @NathanGNU There's linux-libre as well, which has the blobs removed from the linux kernel, making it fully free software. It is active too, with releases mirroring those of the original linux kernel.

  • @bamccaig Second part has a weird title, but is here watch?v=k6G45kt0y6I

  • I too cannot find the second part ...

  • I really like the talk, but it's a bit long.

    Probably it would be more practical to split it somehow into chapters / parts.

    Btw - if you like the non-traditional cooperation and you need a design hand - you can check this network : desbar dot com :)

  • with all the thing he says, you comment on his shirt....
