@takeshitakenji @lambadalambda What was the link to the gitgud patch for mastodon reposts again? I'll give a look at merging it into postActiv if I can, since it looks like gitgud is working for me again. -

@sim @katiekats This is a result of people whom validate themselves externally. To feel good they have to seek others that share or reward them for their opinions. The flip side of this is that people whom don't share their opinions make them uncomfortable and/or upset, so they feel a need to remove them. This is incidentally why its not enough for these people… -

@katiekats To someone in a tribalesque group like that, there is nothing more abhorrent than "one of their own" questioning the orthodoxy or sympathising with the Others. -

I am rediscovering NaturalDocs from having used it to document old python code I had developed years ago and I immediately have the thought that if I reformat the comments in postActiv somewhat, our documentation could pretty much become 200% better with maybe a days worth of refactoring comments. -

@katiekats Its really curious to me that they go after you much more than they do I, but its probably because they think they can change your opinion whereas anyone that knows me knows I don't intimidate or bully. Mind you, if new stuff comes up I'll re-evaluate my position, but that requires facts and arguments, not just polemics. -

Anyways I have groceries to get up and I'm just now able to get moving because the pain's subsided, so I should get that done now before it gets later. -

"On Sunday, the European Commission warned Facebook, Twitter, Google, YouTube and Microsoft that if the companies do not address their hate speech problems, the EU will enact legislation that will force them to do so."
Freedom of speech ... what's that? -

Staying up to see if the new server will get set up soonish but if it's not in the next hour or so I'mma sleep.
When the new server does get set up I'll start with transferring the minor stuff and progress through that to the more important stuff until we're at the main site. -

@verius Moreover, the certification process Ubuntu proposes here would here in Canada at least be considered an unlawful obstruction for any software that is GPL. -

@verius By calling something after the original source, they are not misrepresenting the origin of the software. And even if they are, it is not permitted to use trademarks to restrict the ability of people to modify the software for any reason, including commercial distribution. I agree that non-onerous trademark compliance requests are reasonable, but I do not t… -

@verius Maybe you should go reread the Four Freedoms again. If your ability to modify the software is restricted, then the software is nonfree -

@verius Well if you want to be the one to remove every branding image, piece of text, and code that contains a reference to Ubuntu from the distribution, be my guest. I don't think it's a reasonable request. -

@verius As they state on that page, if it is not onerous to remove trademarks then it is not unreasonable to ask for them to be removed. However, that requires them to be easily removed. Ubuntu as a distribution has hundreds of packages, expecting the branding to be removed from every single one that had it would, in my non-legal opinion, constitute an unreasonabl…
