Try abrowser from the Trisquel apt repo. It is a firefox rebuild with a few tweaks for privacy.

Gplv2 violations are widespread, we need much much more enforcement and more copyleft software, and this could be a huge win. Free software's main purpose should not be to be propr…

Your quote is misleading. There are a list of reasons on that page, you imply it's just that one reason. > So shipping free software isn't even enough for admission to the FSFs spe…

> It's also unclear to me what the distinction is between this part of the criteria and the RYF certification. Ya, you are confused. The PureOS endorsement is about a distro you ca…

Just no. Your link is about coreboot. The FSF endorsement is of PureOS (does not contain coreboot).

And Microsoft said all GPL was a cancer and unamerican and viral and disallowed it from about 50k engineer's computers due to "legal risk of GPL virality", and this was when they w…

The "scripts to control" clause as you say is in all versions of the GPL, exactly the same in GPLv3, and slightly different I presume in GPLv2. It has been tested in court, and its…

So, basically, exactly what the article says, a big nothing. The plants thing is stupid, rms doesn't hate plants. Sarah Mei appears to have no special reason to hate rms, shes a we…

This story has obvious falsehoods and as far as I can tell, is totally false or about the wrong person. 1. As far as I can tell, he was never on the board of VA Linux. 2. RMS was n…

I used gerrit and did not utterly despised it. Hi.

Oh ya, I shouldn't have said answer, because uniq is not a way to the answer, just something I naturally reached for while trying to figure out an answer.

Interestingly, locale can change one answer. with LC_COLLATE=en_US.UTF-8, sort faces.txt | uniq -c 5 (◕‿◕) uniq treats (︺︹︺) as equal to (◕‿◕). Copied the file to my machine to tes…
