   @laurelrusswurm NC and ND promote the part of CC that's actually against the commons

   @laurelrusswurm should others have a say on what *I* can do with *my* computer, my disk, my printer, my paper, my ink? no, thanks

   @laurelrusswurm like, with NC and ND, opponents need not embrace and extend !CC to keep their power, it's already done it to itself

   exactly my point! viewing *is* downloading, saving or not ♻ @zotz: on the net, simple viewing amounts to receiving data from upstream

   @mlinksva I didn't see the thread, just a sentence that seemed to support the false dichotomy between download for viewing or saving

   @mlinksva downloading amounts to receiving data from upstream, regardless of saving a local copy in a cache or for time shifting

   @kr428 I'll give you they may not make sense for you. but how can you assert they don't make sense for me, or for anyone else?

   @kr428 why are you trying to argue I shouldn't be entitled to choose using a scripting interface when it makes sense to me?

   @kr428 I challenge the latter limitation; I saw a former GUI-only user's eyes shine as he first ejected a CD from the cmd line :-)

    @kr428 now, when I write “scriptability” I mean using an interpreted rather than compiled language; think e.g. python, not just sh

    @kr428 under that light, your argument seems to come across as “there are cases in which users *must not* be offered scriptability”

    @kr428 don't narrow scriptability to CLI! all graphical programs are written (scripted) in a programming language

    @kr428 have I ever told you how much I love to ssh from laptop to phone and send SMSes and make calls from within emacs? ;-)

    @kr428 indeed, why not operate on that? does being able to script impair or get in the way of operating on displayed graphics?

    @kr428 aah, I think I found the root of miscommunication! I'm not speaking of computer->user interface, but user->computer

    @kr428 seems like we're miscommunicating. I don't deny GUIs are useful for some; I just wish they weren't ever the only interface

    @kr428 depends... do the arrows I prefer to use over a mouse when I want precision count as hotkeys?

    @kr428 right. but if you ever use hotkeys rather than clickityclick menus, you know where I'm coming from (it's a lesser form of scripting)

    @kr428 now, seriously, is there anything not scriptable about scaling image size down, running the algorithm on it and displaying both?

    @kr428 wow, that's amazing! can this no-processing preview generator be used to avoid any processing for the actual image too? ;-P
