Open Source Software Community - it's about ethics in Code of Conducts

Admittedly, it was a small factor in my reasoning to go back to gentoo. That kind of control gentoo offers is sadly needed to be more immune against rugpulls by insane men in dresses. While gentoo certainly has a bunch of tranny jannies too (I have no idea because I don't follow distro politics but it's basically a given), the way it works as meta distribution does give you immunity against unwanted changes to a big degre
As a Gentoo enjoyer - it seems to be relatively safe for now. It's not a chud distro by any means (which is not something I'd want anyway), but values utility over politics.
For example, there's an official Gentoo wiki page for XLibre, as well as a Portage overlay for it.
Gentoo forum discussion around it was all also free of usual screeching (mostly).

@volatile puar
I remember this interesting PR of his, where he seems to be dunking on Mastodon users panicking about le evil Pleroma nazis.

Tired joke, yeah yeah, sue me.

This guy has been mentioned in the thread a few times, but not always under every name.
 
Sorry if this is a dumb question, but if BSD userland and a non-GCC compile chain is desirable, why not just run BSD?
For the same reason GNU HURD exists. Someone's project which may or may not be technically interesting, but caught up some crazy people who desperately need to have some *other* OS/kernel/libc to cling onto and preach they are better for using it as opposed to the mainstream.

I have done an unusual level of benchmarking of math functions between glibc and musl. musl is across the board slower, in particular it's malloc function. There's also compatibility issues.
Did you get a chance to compare uClibc and BSD libc as well?
 
S2 Underground, an OSINT larper who runs a hobbyist ham radio group has had his Arc Pro GIS tracking illegal immigration activist NGOs and illegal alien sightings DMCA'd by the ESRI for the data he includes in his map layers.

I could read this and comprehend what it meant but I felt flashbanged for just a second.
 
How's he a LARPer? I've never heard of him but it seems like he's doing real, actual work.
 
Make your community post readable to everyone bro, nobody outside of that sphere is going to know what that sentence means.
 
Look my nigga. I understand all the words, in a vacuum and together but you got to say it more tardidly,
"OSINT sped has been copyright struck by Commie Niggers for his map of Spic Illegal Crossings" makes more sense to normies.
 
My questions as a non Ham Man is 1. Is the DMCA false? 2. Can he get it struck off?

And additionally: If these fuckers are breaking the law, how are they COPYRIGHTING their movements?

Yes, it likely is false. You can't copyright facts like names and addresses as they aren't "creative" works subject to copyright law.
 
The only other possibility I could guess is that they copyrighted the map he used, in which case I'd advise him to head down to the dollar store and buy one of those school maps of the US, and just sharpie their movements on.

Shut the beaner pooproad DOWN.

Since he was using ESRI's mapping service he has implicit permission to use the underlying maps. ESRI is responding to a false DMCA from a 3rd party. He could self-host with OpenStreetMap but wherever he runs the server is likely to get another false DMCA. Too bad Null's idea for 'free speech' hosting isn't yet available.
 
This is why the Autistics need a handler to translate for them.

They do good work but you always need a handler.
 
You dumb fucks :story: (I love 'ya anyway though, no homo)

Dude hosts interactive maps tracking known encounters with illegals and the shitbag activism NGOs that support them (to interfere with deportation efforts). Said interactive maps are provided by a (very shitty) company called ESRI, said dude likely has a valid license to use that visualization and this DMCA claim is likely fraudulent and generated from an uninvolved third party who's offended by that information being publicized.
