@clacke @strypey if I may dredge up an old thread, do you have any updated views on #Holochain 's #CAL ?
The licence itself seems to be an amalgam of an improvement over AGPL w.r.t data and LGPL-like permissions for parts of the subject of the #Licence . Mostly good, the only gripe might be that it will take lawyers to confirm if it is trouble-free for open projects to use it or Holochain and the like. But that seems "just" 1 "autonomy audit" away.
@bhaugen thanks for the pointer, I hadn't read their blog on the topic. So, unless they themselves become patent trolls, using their code seems OK. Re-implementors of the protocol aren't there yet, that seems to require trust in them.

@matslats@social.coop greetings. Just read your website. Tempted to say "kudos" to your way of living, but you say altruism needn't be appreciated 🙂
What do you think of property rights? Shouldn't they be abolished in a wholly-communal society? Before the British leech attached itself to India and did land "reforms", land was a commons!

#CuisSmalltalk url changed to http://cuis.st.
Short and neat!
@strypey isn't #Holochain patented? @gert @bhaugen @clacke @matslats@social.coop @organizingInFedi @mike_hales
@mike_hales @gert @strypey @lightweight @bhaugen @organizingInFedi @matslats@social.coop https://webxdc.org by the people behind @delta is interesting, in that it is webapps that uses chat as auth. As I understand, a "server" could be a chatbot sending webxdc apps as responses and handling app responses. If Quicksy support "appears", running community-member-friendly services sounds more tractable than otherwise.

@strypey @matslats @bhaugen @organizingInFedi @mike_hales Well unfortunately the principles do not seem to prevent coops from disappearing. I am directly damaged by this and very worried about this recent trend.

@strypey @matslats @bhaugen @organizingInFedi @mike_hales Good suggestion, thx.
Yes timebanks could be in for some resource sharing, there seem to be many implementations. In my mind, a NoBank would also make sense, just a database of who owes what to whom, which can then be settled automatically (unlike with your bar tab). Both would work best in local contexts, but that is IMO the most important context.
BTW, FYI, I also posted this: http://nlchat.citiwise.eu/chat/sei/index.html#!/Co-op-dev

@gert
Yeah, I understand all that. Tim Bray, who wrote that article, worked on a bunch of that automation.
But those are big-corporation patterns. I expect a fedi co-op system would focus on smaller orgs. Maybe different patterns? Not sure yet...

House of the Dragon spoilers
I loved Game of Thrones (the first few seasons anyway) so I gave the first episode of House of the Dragon a go. Nothing held my interest. Boring characters droning exposition at each other, interspersed with narratively pointless gore. About half way through the first episode they started performing a cesarean section on screen and I turned it off. Hard Pass.

I also had a ~/.cache/electron dir, with zips from like 2018.
People, if you never invalidate it, it's not a cache. It's a dump.

The fact that there was more energy on the internet to stop Ajit Pai than there is to alleviate (or even discuss) the worst climate disaster in recent history has really made me realize that brown people will never have an equal voice in this "global community", and that I should drastically deprioritize the importance of this space to me.
There is no point in keeping up with The Internet at large. For folks like me, it's just a parasocial relationship with the US and its culture.
@dentangle sorry, what was the empire proud of?
@0 some sort of streamlining business across the world. their last new products were tincans, so they had it coming.

@ehashman @mhoye 2/ One of the original tenets of Free Software, back to RMS, was the ability to improve software yourself -- or pay a person of your choice to do it.
mailbox.org is a for-profit company, but it exists because a bunch of people decided Gmail wasn't great, and running a SMTP server themselves wasn't either, and they'd rather have a few people be the sysadmins than each of them doing it themselves.
I think this is exactly in the spirit of #FLOSS.

@lightweight @ilumium @ehashman these days computing power is such that nearly any service ( chat, forums etc. ) can be hosted on a home computer, the reason's people don't do this have more to do with convenience, not having a solid internet connection etc.
There's no reason why we can't have a more localized, more networked society, where every school has it's own forums and chatrooms for it's students, the local library has an IRC server etc.
