@foone So several sprites can use the same rotation? Makes sense, in a way.

@foone It was kinda difficult getting 720k drives around that era. Someone put effort into this.

@aral @EU_Commission Fair, but also better than not being here 🤷♂️

@foone Days without incident: 0

@fraying I feel generally speaking, it becomes more obvious in recent years (maybe just to me), how liberalism and anarchism, while both being about personal choice and freedom, differ how one comes from a place of privilege, while the other comes from the opposite end of that spectrum.

EFF, and also the larger FOSS community, seem to have sprung up around liberal ideals, and are struggling to understand the non-privileged point of view.

@aral

@futureisfoss @aral And if you follow this to its logical conclusion, maybe get rid of servers altogether.

I mean, not necessarily *literally*. But if you can participate without having to set up *or* join a server, that'd be grand, no?

@aral I always find it worth pointing out that the "paradox" of tolerance, as it's called, is only a paradox when you treat tolerance as a moral precept.

But it's not.

Tolerance is a social contract, intended to protect anyone who adheres to it.

People who deliberately break it? They opt out of the protections, too, not just the responsibilities.

@lightweight @wizzwizz4 Well, EU governments are increasingly (if slowly) veering towards FOSS, and it looks like they also publish about it.

NGOs could learn from this. E.g. https://joinup.ec.europa.eu/collection/open-source-observatory-osor/document/swedish-public-open-source-movement-working-bottom

@webmink @lightweight @osi @msw Well, I recall a few conversations by proponents of permissive licenses back in the 90s when the distinction was last pushed, and the explicit message of permissive licenses was "open for business, unlike copyleft".

Which means that skewed perception actually predates the use by Google et al, but Google certainly attracted a lot of people from the same camp in the beginning. I wouldn't consider either...
