Same, except seven.

Check the part about misinformation.

What Linux infrastructure? The wikis and torrent links?

Package database mirrors (i.e. the things you're downloading from when you install new software).

Unless there's a miracle, it would be:

4 consumer are relegated to DRM'd-to-Hell-and-back smartphones

And that's honestly why this story isn't the good news it appears to be. An entire generation growing up used to (or rather, used by) locked-down devices designed for consumption is a goddamned disaster!

My other reply to you was literally entirely composed of a supporting link. Quit being disingenuous.

You are factually incorrect.

Liberalism has always been a right-wing philosophy

Same, minus the state pride (Georgia).

This ain't his first Internet argument, maybe? That's why I know it, anyway.

Knock it off with your bad-faith insinuations.

Somewhere in there there's a step "come up with the most sociopathic business plan possible."

You've only been here for three days so you don't know, but the user you're replying to was notorious as an emphatic, outspoken critic of the DNC before the change in leadership. It was at the point where half the stuff he said was easily mistaken for tankie anti-Democrat trolling.

If he, of all people, says it's better now, I, for one, believe him.

"We've tried running two shitlib women with 'status-quo' platforms during a time when the public is crying out for economic change, and they both lost. That proves women can't win, because it couldn't possibly be about our abject refusal to rein in the billionaires!" --- shit liberals say

I hear that, and in parallel, mostly essentials only, minimum amount of purchasing for months now. Not paying a dime into their precious “economy” if I don’t have to.

See, that's where they got me: I would've liked to do the same as you, but instead I bought a bunch of stuff I would've normally waited until later to get, in anticipation that the fuckwad's idiot tariffs would jack up the price if I waited.

Who cares? It's not as if the dipshits who need to hear it would know the difference anyway.

If they also have a teaching position, they might get a tiny tiny bit from the university, but that’s it.

Granted this is a best-case scenario, but the salaries for profs at my alma-mater (a public tier 1 research university) are public and I looked one of them up once. He was getting well into six-figures for teaching classes.

To be fair, if your son cares it's only because you/society taught him to care.

DSA according to conservatives and liberals: ☝️

DSA in reality:
