Is there no better option than Signal? Shame.

Bulgaria named it after Frodos best friend.

I’ve been using a GUI on Linux for a very long time.

Its the easiest way to have multiple command prompts…

Here are some other examples:

A book, The Cathedral and the Bazaar about software development.

A fashion and “lifestyle” magazine

We have a lot of foreign food stores around here that are called “The Bazaar Supermarket” etc.

Because the IRA didn’t truly give up violence. They had Sinn Fein for that.

MLK was ignored, and the Black Panthers showed what could happen if you ignore them.

Gandhi wasn’t recognised by the British until the terrorist acts and rebellions in India.

The violence isn’t the “solution”, it is the response to the negotiations being ignored. Its the “good cop/bad cop” in all these situations. There are plently of peaceful groups who have been working towards better healthcare, but made no progress. This is the point where they can start saying

Either you work with us, or deal with them 🤷‍♀️

And it’s exactly how the IRA got the negotiations going. It may take a while but its the same pattern.

Why would you want to prevent strangers, future humanity or governments from using open source?

Completely agree that it will require effort. But considering there is literally no way for me to donate, the bar for improvement is stupidly low.

What would be nice is that having a better feedback loop could encourage community engagement. Having proper profiles would be my request.

That’s not what I said. Their fundraising is dead because they don’t need to raise any more cash.

They literally throw cash away each month. Without Googles dump truck money I am sure they could increase fundraising to raise what they actually need to operate. Not that they could increase fundraising to match Googles current contributions.

Are they dependent?

All I see is Google throwing a fuck tonne of money at them, and Mozilla spaffing it on pointless crap. They could probably raise more if Google went away, but they could also reduce spend significantly if they didn’t have stupid money get thrown at them.

Its like giving your kids $100 a day. Sure they could blow it on pay to win games, but what would happen if you reduced it to $10 a day? Probably nothing of note, just less spending on crap.
