I think "What Remains of Edith Finch" traumatized me to this day.

It does, but honestly its more stable for me with proton. At least it used to be I haven't tried the native version in several years

The Long Dark

That makes total sense from a corporate perspective. Maybe I would just love to be the one the pushes us a little bit closer to the enduser having control of their data and hardware. Its probably a pipe dream though lol.

I'm planning on getting some recertified Seagate Ironwolfs from SeverPartDeals very soon

This is garbage.

GPLs "restrictions" are freedom preserving though. It only restricts developers from keeping dirivitive code proprietary. In order to violate the GPL you'd have to choose to use GPL code and then choose not to release your modified versions of it under a similar copyleft license. It may seem counterintuitive, but having those restrictions results in more software freedom overall - similar to the paradox of intolerance.

I'm not saying MIT or so called permissive licenses are bad, but the permissive/restrictive language is just as loaded as the OPs suggestions. Both styles are needed, but copyleft licenses are better at promoting software freedom.

Edit: I do agree with you that LGPL serves an important role in promoting free/libre software where it would otherwise would never be used.

Ahh. My miskate, apologies for misunderstanding you!

Edit: and extra apologies for my confrontational tone at your, in retrospect, very benign comment.

Have a great day!

Do you think it's some kind of gachya that I believe organizing workforces, community activism, and direct action will do more good for people than simply voting once every couple of years? Did I indicate to you at any point that people shouldn't vote for the less fascist party/candidates? The point is not "Don't vote", it's "Meaningful political change will never come if voting is people's only method for enacting said change."

We agree on that. I don't, however, expect the US democratic party to represent me and my interests. They represent the ruling class just like nearly every major political party around the world. Electoral politics isn't going to change that.

They don't have to be "literally the same" for controlled opposition to prevent meaningful change.

Um.. Its not ironic at all? Mozilla has been active and well regarded in privacy oriented spaces for many years.
