@wakarimasen good shit! i remember playing it when my flatmate scared me shitless by knocking on the window :D

@waweic well, it depends if the tolerance of the group is based on meritocracy or other values.

i don't have seen suckless people doing anything fashist. i haven't seen much from them besides their software, actually. i have the slight suspicion that it's the kind of image 9front has because of their propaganda page.

@waweic sure there are some biases depending on where you look, still it doesn't say anything about other members of that group or the thing they do (unless it's explicitly political).

In the past 48 hours I've seen "If you use a tiling window manager you're probably a racist toxic fossbro", "if you support FOSS you're likely a liberal or a toxic fossbro", "If you use emacs you're part of the problem" and uh...

Can we just stop putting people in bins based on what tools they use and, more likely, what they had available to them when they first learned how to interact with tech?

Y'all stressing me out because I've seen these funny little takes go viral and become zeitgeist material.

@waweic the thing is, you could take any group based on what they make and would find members of group $x in them. take ecology movements, there are radical lefts and blood & soil people found there. there are likely anarchists and fashists to be found in the group of people who bake bread.
it isn't simple and it's dangerous to try to find simple solutions.

@aral
Can you explain what you mean by "everyone's point"?

At least for me, I'm railing against the mob justice/cancel culture.
And that their primary reference is a hit piece full of 'inaccuracies' (to put it mildly).
That does not mean I'm defending the FSF.

The "Communal Technology Movement" thread looks interesting, but have to read up on that.
I'm also perfectly fine with KDE e.V.'s response, where they (primarily) rightfully criticize FSF's process.

@lupyuen i just hope they don't reflect like the starlink satellites 😐

one thing i really regret is not paying more attention in french in school. learning languages is really more important than most other things, just english doesn't really cut it.

@r000t
...and they think they're the good guys :blobcatgrimacing:

@captainepoch i love how the statements ooze of PR department word twisting. it's a big protection racket.

how come its always cancel this and fire that and nobody ever goes

:blobcatidea: we should send that guy to therapy

news from the banking security LARPing front:

i have received my "photo tan" generator. activation only required scanning three codes and typing in two long numeric codes myself (without spaces, the backend can't strip spaces from numbers..).

activation was completed successfully.

time to log in.

"please activate your photo tan gadget!11"

fml.

@lucifargundam no, just that everybody is wrong sometimes/most of the time and most likely isn't a more evil (whatever that might be!) person than i am.

@bonifartius @freemo @lupyuen yes, the people doing this are becoming exactly what the RMS support letter was against - campaigns of harassment against innocents.
