"We're not going to win the freedom of the net discussion carrying FB on our backs."

"[FB] are not technically innovative. They depend upon an architecture subject to misuse, and the business model that supports them *is* misuse. There isn't any other business model for them. This is bad. I'm not suggesting it should be illegal, it should be obsolete. We're technologists, we should fix it."

Facebook’s new move isn't about privacy. It’s about domination

Mark Zuckerberg announced on Wednesday that #Facebook would be ‘pivoting to privacy’. That’s an empty pledge

It is is international women's day. A good day.

I like how easy it is to switch between desktop environments on GNU/Linux.

Sometimes I don't want to leave the terminal so I stay in dwm, other days I've got LXDE with floating windows everywhere.

It's all awesome. #FreeSoftware

Anyone has suggestions on mailing list support? I'm down to use something like Mailman tbh but I'd do my best to style the shit out of it.

It's really frustrating how much we could self-host the internet but can't because consumer ISP service is intentionally broken

I've never understood the fascination with walking around and endorsing Nike, Puma, Adidas, etc. Our cars, laptops, clothing, and most daily possessions are smothered in corporate branding.

"Yoooo bro, are those the new NIKE KICKMAX UNITE 3.11 WORN BY FAMOUS RAPPER YANME KWEST?"

Anyone know of any good freenode channels that focus on kindness, respect, inclusiveness and the like? So far #librelounge has been great about this, the few times I've had time to pop in

"We don't have an ETA for a new signature from MS which would unblock us. At *best*, we're expecting a few weeks. It's out of our control."

Debian has been unable to build their installer for almost a month now because of a SNAFU and only Microsoft can really unblock it. Wow.

"#Zuckerberg’s essay is a power grab disguised as an act of contrition.

Facebook had $55 billion in #adrevenue last year, with 45% profit margin.. the most #profitable business venture in human history.

By narrowly construing #privacy to be exclusively about #endtoend #encryption, he avoids having to think about Facebook’s weaknesses and missteps. Privacy is not just about keeping secrets. It’s also about how flows of info shape us as individuals and as a society."

Looking forward to the tipping point... any day now.
