FOSS is full stop corporate ware. MIT/Apache licensing. K8s very good example here.
Libre is very definitely anti capitalist in spirit. GPL licensing. Very much IME white college guy territory. Call it the DSA problem ( I say this as a DS member, heh).
@KitRedgrave because the most influential and powerful ones like being able to negotiate their own salary, so they discourage unionization. Unions also probably would wind up creating pressure against the stock options/rsus in startups.
not going to lie, standing as someone born in the 80s, the left and liberals chief flourishing has been to relax religious, sexual, and gender mores. I see Reagan and Pat Robertson having won the vast enormity of the wars.
"So now, less than five years later, you can go up on a steep hill in Las Vegas and look West, and with the right kind of eyes you can almost see the high-water mark—that place where the wave finally broke and rolled back.”"
I’m reminded of what happened in the 1970s when the hippies — bruised and bloodied from the culture wars of the ‘60s — retreated into self-help, wellness, and personal development, as Adam Curtis documents in his series The Century of Self. While they turned inward, the winners of the ‘60s culture wars took society’s reins. A focus on personal wellness created an unintended side effect: a retreat from the public arena, and a shift in the distribution of power ever since.
now that I live in Seattle, and have no plans to emigrate, I wonder if I should move to Social.Seattle.wa.us. Thoughts, @finn ? What's your uptime %? :)
@cesura :: wobbles hand :: Maybe? I happen to personally enjoy barbell work, which is what I use the gym for. Squats are hard without a squat rack.
A pair of kettlebells (16kg, 24kg) and every-other-day discipline like the Simple & Sinister program put out by StrongFirst will do for the normal person as a strength maintenance program IMO. I have found that system to be incredibly efficient vs "random acts of gym" which is what I did before about a year ago
