>>X11WVVIW (OP) Ugh, I can't stop thinking about eating tasty animals.
https://invidious.nerdvpn.de/watch?v=nN-JkLn4qH0 I don't like this video. I feel like she's might get audience captured and then spend more and more time complaining about wokeism in video games. I will probably stop watching her if she does. Also people are calling her "Dustborn" stream based even though she barely said anything controversial, and spent most of the time holding back because she was afraid of being fired or getting her channel deleted. https://invidious.nerdvpn.de/watch?v=VSuOkob8354 (vid related is dustborn stream clips, the worst things weren't in these clips) https://invidious.nerdvpn.de/watch?v=XPEb5ptgHuk&t=0 (dustborn stream) Generally I don't call people "based" for complaining about something political unless don't censor themselves. People complaining about video games are never based to me because they are complaining about that is mostly inconsequential (like literally just play the old video games you like). They also usually show a lot of toxic masculinity, homophobia, racism, and misogyny which puts me off. Richard Stallman is a good example of someone who's actually based because he chose to live a difficult life based on ethical principles, and was willing to give up many opportunities in life to live according to them. He is by no means a perfect person, but he's still a million times more based than any youtuber who spends all day complaining about censorship on his platform, while being completely unwilling to leave it because he likes money more than speaking the truth. There are some problems with the video game industry, and I guess it would be fine to expose them (if they are true), but you don't have to denigrate others. Like let's say hypothetically that Blackrock's DEI initiative actually does encourage video game companies to add black people into their video games. It would be fine to say that, and argue why such influences cause the games to decline in quality (IDK why having more black people in a game would make it less fun, but whatever). But it's very off putting that the majority of these people are man children with victim complexes who denigrate minorities and left wingers. A lot of these channels are also completely obsessed with "wokeism" in video games to the point of mental illness. No sane person can make a video about the exact same topic over and over again, repeating the same arguments ad nauseam (https://invidious.nerdvpn.de/watch?v=ix5Up37_X2Q has similar critiques). If you have a critique about something, you say it and then move on to doing other things. Sometimes art declines in quality, this has happened many times in the past, and it will happen many times in the future. Whenever it happens, you just have to stop viewing/playing the new shit and work through your backlog of older art. Some people can't play their old games because they were online games and the servers are down. This is a free software/copyright problem, but the anti-woke people don't even know the first thing about free software, so they complain about the game companies not making the games they want any more instead of complaining about how video games take away their rights. The biggest problem with modern video games are that the designers on getting people addicted to the games instead making them satisfying to play. Micro transactions and Lootboxes are great ways to make money, but they ruin the quality of games. The reason why they became popular is that the internet developed, which in conjunction with software copyright law, allowed the game developers to make way more off of making their games addictive, than making them worth playing. There's no reason to make a game addictive if it weren't for micro transactions. Video games a generally really shitty, this goes for all games, not just the new ones (see: https://www.rogerebert.com/roger-ebert/video-games-can-never-be-art and https://www.gamedeveloper.com/game-platforms/opinion-brian-moriarty-s-apology-for-roger-ebert, I have some critiques of the articles, but they make some good points). So it's a shame that I am too lazy to write my criticisms of the articles right now.

I typed a long ass post but my comptuer ate. It was about the godot drama.
>>RZXVD2FL I think I figured out a way to recover it.
I am going to post it in many parts because one part is getting filtered. https://web.archive.org/web/20241003114420/https://news.itsfoss.com/godot-engine-fiasco/ https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/events/godot-engine-user-blocking-controversy-wokot https://thedirect.com/article/godot-engine-drama-controversy https://invidious.nerdvpn.de/watch?v=3jv9HpmK2qo (shit source) https://invidious.nerdvpn.de/watch?v=nmp072PC6Tc (shit source) Apparently godot went "woke" and people are freaking out over it Most free software projects are full of activists and the free software movement is an explicitly political movement. Open source people are usually politcal to some degree, but they are much less. The anti-woke people are saying the exact same shit they tell companies even though it makes no sense for them to tell that to a free software community (like "focus on the engine and not politics"). Most of these people don't know anything about FOSS and probably haven't written a single line of code in their entire lives. The most that will happen is that some right wingers will cut funding to the engine, I'd guess that the majority of funding comes from left wingers who don't care about having a "she/them" moderate their twitter account. This is cancel culture, The twitter people are canceling Godot by digging up old posts of them saying "nigger" and posting it. Xanananth seems like a schizo, but he as far as I can tell, He doesn't have any official role in Godot, the anti-woke crowd just found a random person on an unofficial discord server. The reason the anti-woke people are doing this is ultimately to cancel a video game engine for making a tweet that supports lgbt people. I can't actually judge the things on twitter are true since I don't have a discord, and most of the drama is happening there. I am just going to assume that Godot's official statement about Xananax not being a member is true. If the statements the twitter people are making (with no evidence) are true then Godot has a serious problem with their community management, and it could cause the Juan Linietsky to lose their "mandate of heaven" to rule over the Godot project (through a fork), but it's more likely that he'll remove some community managers (if they truly suck), and then keep working on the project.
>>MJ9HIQ1Q There are problems from the open source """community""" spearheaded by progressive woke people but it's not that they got some twitter trans woman to manage the tweets for a game engine. That doesn't harm the engine from a technical standpoint. The real problem is that trans women are infiltrating the linux distributions and trying to remove stuff from the repos just because it could potentially offend people (This is happening in Guix see: >>4CHXES82 → >>DC1M8HHT → >>JMV21PE6 → IDK if this is a problem in other distros). There's also a movement to create "ethical source licenses" (https://ethicalsource.dev/) by a trans woman named Coraline Ada Ehmke. This is a non free software movement that could end up taking away some of the open source community from developing free software (https://invidious.nerdvpn.de/watch?v=wQW2iOwwMsE), luckily this movement seems like it's not going anywhere so there's no reason to fear monger as of right now. Not all trans women in free software are like this, but that doesn't that most of the bad ideas are coming from trans women. Large corporations are doing so much harm to the free software movement that the harm far left trans women do is barely a drop in the bucket. Trans women have done a lot of good things for free software as well: Christine Lemmer-Webber (https://dustycloud.org/), Leah Rowe (https://vimuser.org/), and Alyssa Rosenzweig (https://rosenzweig.io/) are the biggest ones. The good thing about free software is that you don't have to support the developers of the software to use it, and you don't have to rely on them. If you use their software, you aren't helping them at all, there's usually no reason to boycot a free software program. Using the program doesn't help the developers at all (there are some cases where this isn't true, but it's usually the case). There's this faggot called grummz who is saying you should switch to "redot" even though that literally does nothing, it's pure virtue signaling. The forks of godot will probably go nowhere, because most protest forks die out very quickly (this is what happened to sneedacity). They don't have anything to offer outside of the feeling that you're part of some political group.
>>R5PWSQ5W I'll probably write a post on how I recovered this post because it could be interesting to other users.
>>O04BF04I I changed my mind.
It's kinda funny that women are more mentally ill than men but they are still saying that men are having the mental health crisis. The male suicide rate is higher because men are better at killing themselves, not because they attempt suicide more often. Women are more likely to attempt suicide. They are more likely to have a mental disorder as well.

>>MJ9HIQ1Q >The anti-woke people are saying the exact same shit they tell companies even though it makes no sense for them to tell that to a free software community (like "focus on the engine and not politics"). Why is that inappropriate to say to a free software project? If it's because the maintainers and contributors are "doing it for free in their spare time", I think more projects (or potentially other parties) should (optionally) "sell responsibility" to their users like I've seen suggested on fedi.

>>YCK5K9PL I usually don't eat for most of the day and I feel perfectly fine most of the time. >>LIQBKES1 > Why is that inappropriate to say to a free software project? The free software movement is a political movement to give users control of the devices they have. I think it's fine keep other kinds of politics outside of free software projects if you think they will alienate the users or contributors. I don't think it was a wise move for godot to call itself woke on their twitter, since LGBT+ stuff doesn't have much overlap with the software ethics, but the free software movement is an ethical and political movement, so it's retarded to say that they shouldn't focus on politics. If they only cared about making a good game engine, it would probably end up being proprietary. The other problem companies want to make as much money as possible, whereas most free software projects value user rights over money (they can still make money, but freedom comes first.) > I think more projects (or potentially other parties) should (optionally) "sell responsibility" to their users like I've seen suggested on fedi. I don't understand what you mean by this.

>>O2Z0E90M I agree.
>>GGEVAH0Y Most logic gates have certain values that force them yield a result without depending on any other inputs (IE they allow for short circuit evaluation), so you try to short circuit the final logic gate by finding a gate which is likely to yield the short circuit value. It isn't revolutionary or anything, it's just that I haven't looked at logic diagrams very much. I'm sure that many people have figured it out.
why are 90% of posts on this website some guy's microblog?
>>7PK03AYN I like this image. I love it when shinji gets femdommed.
>>7PK03AYN I like the idea of a federated image board so I have been trying to post regularly in hopes of attracting more people. I reply to posts in other threads if I find them interesting. There aren't very many people for me to reply to so I microblog instead. If I made a bunch of different threads, then the catalogue would be full of zero reply blog posts. I decided to keep them all in one thread instead. I have been archiving these threads when they reach 500 posts because they have a bunch of interesting video links that I like to look back on from time to time. It's way easier to do that if I have them all in one thread instead of having them be distributed in many different threads. The main reason I post my links and ideas online (instead of keeping them in an emacs orgmode documents) is because other people can benefit from them, It probably helps the website (since otherwise this website would be completely dead), and some people have asked me interesting questions or made informative comments when I make posts. I have been posting on fchan every once in a while since around when it first came out but I didn't start microblogging until most of the websites ended up dying. I feel like most people left due to the websites shutting down, the hype dying down, and spam. New people aren't joining because it isn't being advertised very much.
>>C8S8KQMV > I have been posting on fchan every once in a while since around when it first came out Specifically, I'm pretty sure I've been posting on fchan since day one but I'm not 100% sure. I know for a fact that I've been posting since Jan 18 2021 since I remember when the website had SQL injection vulnerabilities, and the owner of fchannel fixed them on Jan 18 according to the git commit log. I also remember when fchan wasn't licensed under the AGPL which was changed on Jan 28 2021 according to the commit log.
>>DMGW3LKS I oppose strong intellectual property laws and support public-domain-equivalent licenses like Unlicense or 0BSD and CC0 for artistic works. Once I've released my code or art, I don't care what someone else does with it. They can wipe their ass with it. However, I've recently become concerned about how large corporations are taking over FOSS projects and forcing out people, particularly the neurodivergent and socially deficient. So, I've come around to using (A)GPL3. Not because I suddenly care about making endusers behave a certain way, but because it repels FAANG companies like vampires.
>>5DW3S9I0 > I oppose strong intellectual property laws and support public-domain-equivalent licenses like Unlicense or 0BSD and CC0 for artistic works. "Intellectual property" is too vague of a term to have any good opinions about it. It groups together multiple different things that have different moral implications. Trademarks are fine in principle. Copyright is completely morally bankrupt and should either be abolished or severely weakened [1]. Patents are too broad in what they cover, but they might be essential for some industries (like medicine) to function, I haven't looked into the problem to know for sure, but my gut reaction is that patents are awful. Copyleft is supposed use copyright law to simulate a world without copyright laws by keeping the copylefted work free. It makes it so someone can't take your work, add things to it, and then release the combination work under a non free license. > However, I've recently become concerned about how large corporations are taking over FOSS projects and forcing out people, particularly the neurodivergent and socially deficient. Do you have examples of this happening? notes 1. I agree with the copyright reforms expressed in https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/copyright-versus-community.html at "What about the dimension of breadth? Which activities should copyright cover? I distinguish three broad categories of works.". In short currently copyrightable works should be split into 3 categories. Practical works, Artistic works, and Works of opinion. Practical works should have the four freedoms, Artistic works should have a 10 or less year monopoly on commercial copying of their works, and Works of opinion should have the same restrictions as artistic works.
>>UDMNQUZP None have been completely successful. I was thinking mainly of Stallman being forced to resign from the Free Software Foundation using bad-faith readings of some of his comments. (I do think what he said about Epstein and about minors was dumb, but it's clear from what he actually wrote that he was *advocating* it.) Thankfully, he later returned to the FSF. In his returning statement*, he apologized and specifically talked about his poor social skills. Afterwards, a number of organizations cut ties and pulled funding from the FSF, including Red Hat (IBM), which through its control of systemd is one of the most important contributors to Linux after the kernel itself. * https://www.fsf.org/news/rms-addresses-the-free-software-community Earlier, a group was trying to get the Linux kernel to adopt Coraline Ada Ehmke's Code of Conduct. Instead Linus added a different Code of Conflict. This resulted in people demanding that Linus Torvalds resign, including systemd creator Lennart Poettering and Sage Sharp (who was also involved in the Stallman cancellation among other), claiming that Torvalds was abusive. Poettering claimed that Torvalds bore some of the blame for him receiving death threats over systemd. Afterwards, Torvalds took a break from kernel maintenance to work on anger management, during which his Code of Conflict was replaced with Ehmke's Code of Conduct. There's also the recent case of the Nixos founder Eelco Dolstra resigning from leadership after the NixOS Foundation came out against him. It turns out most of the people who signed the statement against him didn't really make any significant technical contributions to Nix or NixOS.
>>UDMNQUZP As for copyright, in the US I think that the original term of 14 years plus another 14 years if explicitly renewed is fine. It was in 1831 that the initial term was changed to 28 years + 14. It wasn't until 1976 that it was changed to "either 75 years or the life of the author plus 50 years". In in 1998 it was changed again to 95 years after creation. Also, in the US until the 1976 act, works need a copyright notice (© [year] [name]) in order to be covered by copyright. Now works are copyrighted from creation even without a notice. This makes in impossible to deliberately place something in the public domain. Statements like "I dedicate this work to the public domain" are legally meaningless. Public-domain-equivalent licenses work by trying to disclaim any rights automatically granted by the state.
>>HM7FY04T Fuck. Meant "clear from what he actually wrote that he wasn't *advocating* it."
> Statements like "I dedicate this work to the public domain" are legally meaningless. It depends on the country, In the USA putting "I dedicate this work to the public domain" would count as making it public domain. From https://fairuse.stanford.edu/overview/public-domain/welcome/ > If, upon viewing a work, you see words such as, “This work is dedicated to the public domain,” then it is free for you to use. Sometimes an author deliberately chooses not to protect a work and dedicates the work to the public. This type of dedication is rare, and unless there is express authorization placing the work in the public domain, do not assume that the work is free to use. The reason why the CC0 was created was because many countries have different copyright laws from the USA which don't accept statements like that. The CC0 is a public domain disclaimer, and a fallback pushover license in cases where the disclaimer doesn't work.
>>Q9L2PV76 It's better to use CC0 instead of a public domain dedication because of the differing laws in other countries though.
>>HM7FY04T I misunderstood what you were saying, I thought you were saying that corpos were taking over FOSS projects and then removing "all" of the weird people in the projects, rather than > I was thinking mainly of Stallman being forced to resign from the Free Software Foundation using bad-faith readings of some of his comments. (I do think what he said about Epstein and about minors was dumb, but it's clear from what he actually wrote that he was *advocating* it.) Thankfully, he later returned to the FSF.

Afterwards, a number of organizations cut ties and pulled funding from the FSF, including Red Hat (IBM), which through its control of systemd is one of the most important contributors to Linux after the kernel itself. This is one of the best examples, since the open letter had many corporations sign it. I'm pretty sure it wasn't started by corpos but they definitely had a huge role in pushing it, and then they defunded the FSF afterwards. Corporations have a huge motive to take over the FSF because they could make a niggerfied GPLv4 that removes the copyleft. They also don't like how the FSF criticizes all proprietary software on ethical grounds, whereas open source only talks about why their software engineering approach creates better software. The complaints around Richard Stallman were mostly lies and mischaracterizations, they just wanted him out and they didn't care about the truth, That's why his apology did nothing. They also complained about his opinions that he intentionally separated from the FSF's mission, and kept on a separate website. They'd have more standing over the pedophilia comments if he had used the GNU project to push them, but he never did that. I don't want to live in a world where you can get removed from an Organization for stating political opinions on a website not related to the organization at all. They never made any connections between his posts on stallman.org and their affect on the GNU project or the FSF.

Afterwards, Torvalds took a break from kernel maintenance to work on anger management, during which his Code of Conflict was replaced with Ehmke's Code of Conduct. I haven't read much about this case but I thought it was because a bunch of intel developers were tired of getting insulted by Linus. It seems more like a problem with bad management on the behalf of Linux rather than an attempted takeover. The contributor covenant sucks ass but it's true that Linus was being unreasonably rude in some of his posts. It's still a problem that big corporations have leverage over Linux, but in this case I can understand the reason why they would want to quit. In this case, there was a real problem with Linus's disagreeable behavior and it was directly related to his management of Linux. And the criticism stopped after they got him to stop being so rude to the other developers. In this case, I think it was a management dispute related to the project, rather than an attempt at a takeover, or a blind cancellation based on hate. > There's also the recent case of the Nixos founder Eelco Dolstra resigning from leadership after the NixOS Foundation came out against him. It turns out most of the people who signed the statement against him didn't really make any significant technical contributions to Nix or NixOS. I hadn't heard about that case until you mentioned it. I read an article on that case (https://lwn.net/Articles/970824/) and it seems like their complaints were that Eelco Dolstra was actively undermining the power of a group he created to manage the system, and that he had conflicts of interest since he was being funded by a military company that used his software. He specifically pushed hard to get the company to sponsor NixCon even after most of the other people in charge of the Con didn't want that sponsorship. They also said that he worked for a company that was creating a custom Nix installation tool, and that the default tool had been broken since 2023 (which is a huge conflict of interest). Again it seemed like stuff related to the management of the project rather than kicking someone out because they posted wrongthink, or because corporations wanted to get rid of him. It doesn't even seem like there was corporate involvement in this case (other than the founder's involvement in some corporations), but If you know more about it I'd like to know. > It turns out most of the people who signed the statement against him didn't really make any significant technical contributions to Nix or NixOS. Technical contributions aren't the only contributions you can make to a Free Software project. But if they didn't contribute anything to the project (technical or non technical), and weren't really involved with the project very much, then that makes their signatures much less important (and makes it seem astroturfy). Still, I think it's fine to criticize an organization that you're not part of. If a bunch of people got together and criticized my project, then I'd at least consider the criticisms, and change my behavior if I think the criticisms are valid.

>>CPS80J7P >could make a niggerfied GPLv4 that removes the copyleft That's why I'd use GPL-3.0-only and not GPL-3.0-or-later
>>8O4WOW1Y The FSF also owns all of the copyright to the GNU programs (Except for Nano I think), so if an organization takes it over, then it could make a proprietary version of GNU. > That's why I'd use GPL-3.0-only and not GPL-3.0-or-later For me, it depends on the circumstances. If I was the sole author of a program, then I would probably do GPL-3.0 only, and upgrade when the GNU project comes out with GPL4 (if the GPLv4 was good), but if I was part of a large group that didn't do copyright assignment, then I'd want GPL-3.0 or later because it would be hard to upgrade the program to GPL-4. Not having the "or-later" tag to the GPL leads to license proliferation when the GPL version is changed, since the GPL versions will probably be incompatible with one another. If there was a good chance that the FSF was compromised, then I'd want everyone in the big group to make all the new versions of the code GPL-3.0 only so that the new version of the program wouldn't get taken.

Weird timing for me to bring up Stallman; a new dedicated website trying to revive the cancellation. Anonymously this time instead of an open letter. They're calling on the FSF board to remove Stallman, to denounce him, for voting members to resign, to adopt the Code of Conduct, and for all parties who are "complicit in the platforming" Stallman to "publishing a written apology for their conduct." And for the GNU project for Stallman to resign or be removed and for the project to relace the GNU Kind Communication Guidelines with the Code of Conduct. Archive link: https://archive.is/KIJbN
>>J59H1IY5 I used to lucid dream in my early teens.* One thing I remember was that I'd see people from real life, including dead people, in my dreams, but they wouldn't actually act like the real person, so I'd call them out on it: "You're not the real x" or "X wound't do that" and they'd freak out and get angry and scary, but they couldn't touch or harm me. I don't know if they're actually something like thought-forms/tulpas that wer only able to work off of my memories of people. Recently I saw a video of Sean Booth of Autechre talking about the same thing and it freaked me out a bit. Also sex never worked in my lucid dreams. My body, body parts, the other person or the dream itself would shift, transform or disappear. Mostly I would fly or consciously alter the dream. *Although I've always wondered if I was actually aware that I was dreaming, or if I was dreaming that I was aware that I was dreaming.
