the GPL does not require upstreaming. it would allow for anyone to redistribute Winamp with whatever modifications they like, provided they publish their source code under the GPL. the license Winamp is using is not even an open-source license since it explicitly forbids public redistribution. dumb move, they should have just used MIT or GPL and retained rights to the logo or something
and for a brief period other Western politicians were imitating the Israeli pronounciation, because they only interact with Israelis, not Palestinians
Employees are petitioning the tech company to stop matching contributions to groups with an active role in the occupation, including one that provides support to the Israeli military.
use Linux, it doesn't fund apartheid
plagiarism is a capitalist lie, sharing knowledge is good and beneficial

someone on r/trueanon said this but he really does look like a Nazi. amphetamines and being gay in an evil way does crazy shit to the body
whatever type of beetles are on my bean plants, those motherfuckers are eating good rn
buried AC transmission lines also suffer from capacitive losses to earth which would significantly reduce grid efficiency on the distances being covered in the US. we do have buried lines within cities but outside of them it doesn't really make sense

i'm not 100% of the time but i eat meat very occasionally, don't drink milk and only eat "nice" eggs (probably not much better than factory-farmed but i'm planning on getting chickens within a year). i don't think animal agriculture is fundamentally immoral but the industrialized system we currently have is abhorrent morally and environmentally. growing enough meat for westerners to eat it daily is unsustainable
my biggest guilty pleasure is those 4 hour long videos of a guy building things in Minecraft
his first response included the phrase "no wrongdoing was found" which is possibly the most incriminating thing you could say
none of the liberals who (rightfully) complained about Trump's violent rhetoric being reflected in real-world hate crimes seem fazed by Biden's support of war crimes against Palestinians

an end to oil drilling, gas extraction, and coal mining will obviously be necessary to stop climate change. how much modern technology can we replicate without relying on those things or other ecologically violent resource extraction? what does an agriculture system that doesn't rely on petrochem-derived fertilizers and herbicides look like? how do we repair the immense damage that's already been done?
i'd really appreciate some book recommendations on this topic as well as everyone's thoughts

it discusses the Synanon cult that was born out of AA, how it related to MKULTRA and 60s psychiatric research, and how it birthed the modern troubled teen industry.
