This is basic life philosophy. Nothing is perfect, but you can choose which problems you want to deal with. Linux presents the least amount of struggle to fixing the problems it gives me, so I use Linux everywhere.

And it relies on the US, so it’s flaky

You bitch at me for being an ideological puritan and then ask me if I’m pure enough by your standards. Did you miss the part where I said I like what he does?

I like what he does and that he can rally people to a cause, but he consistently misses the mark.

In order to escape the corrupt bureaucracy of New York, he moved to… Texas.

I think he’s a ‘path of least resistance’ kind of guy, not ideologically driven but rather “I don’t wanna deal with it” driven. He has deemed that it is easier to move to Texas because the corruption there affects him less directly and more abstractly, and he chooses to front Right to Repair because it is easier to lobby and rally people than it is to work in his industry without his political influence.

He has a front row seat to the horrors of capitalism and, without missing a beat, says “I’m not a socialist, I’m a capitalist” because it’s easier to be a shitlib than it is to believe in something bigger.

Louis Rossmann is not the smartest cookie in the jar, but he is a cookie, at least.

That’s all I care about.

Its really not possible to remember an IPv6.

skill issue. Your ISP isn’t giving you a /128, you don’t have to remember a whole ass SLAAC address. My desktop has like 4 IPv6 addresses most of the time, but I only have to remember the one I assigned it and my network prefix. This is one of the advantages of IPv6; you can have an easy to remember, and SLAAC, and privacy-extension addresses all at once.

I can’t prove it, but I’m typing this from my head- 2a05:f6c7:8321::10
That’s about as human readable as IPv4.

IPv6 isn’t just a larger IPv4. There are features inherent to it, like link-local actually functioning and being predictable, unlike APIPA in v4 which was grafted on as an afterthought and breaks more than it works.

It also functions router-less. You can grab 30 10-port switches and just stick them together and start plugging computers in. It will work without configuration or an authority.

I am all v6 internally, but that’s not because I have a splatillion devices, but rather it’s just better and easier to manage.

I couldn’t figure it until I turned my brain off and just read the documentation. I was thinking in IPv4 logic, because everyone had told me it was just “bigger IPv4” - it’s not. It’s so much more, and better.

And then there is meningspunktet.dk which had all the time in the world to do whatever they wanted, and even get their hosting paid for by a university. They still leaked everyones email, phone, full legal name and location on day one and only fixed it because I pointed it out.

fuck no they won’t lmao

Please don’t get your hopes up

I didn’t imply that you can’t strip the protocol down to its bare essentials and still use it, but what’s the point of a protocol if everyone is on their own personalized version of it? Version / Feature fragmentation is a massive problem and basically none of the third party clients are up to snuff. Synapse is a massive bowl of lukewarm dog water, and most alternatives to it die in a year because it’s impossible to keep up. There’s too much shit in the protocol.

The protocol is bloated to hell so third-party clients stand no chance, and the foundation spends more time bikeshedding or pissing away money than they do developing. It’s a doomed project.

Content ID is a major part of how copyright currently works.

It’s literally not a part of how Copyright currently works. It’s how Google automated copyright claims on their platforms.

None of my creative works are in Content ID. People are not being sued through Content ID. Content ID flags stuff and at worst removes it. It is up to the copyright holder to decide what they want to do.

No it doesn’t. It would work like Copyright currently works.

I don’t need my works to be in any database for them to be protected by copyright. I simply have to declare their license or have the license be assumed by not declaring it. That’s how it already works. You, the owner of the copyrighted works, has to sue the infringer. It’s not an automated process. Your ‘likeness’ doesn’t need to be in any database if you can prove they used your likeness. Content ID was an attempt by Google to automate the removal process on their platforms so they could wash their hands of the problem.
