#CW politics, sexual abuse
Assange
- has admitted to essentially rape
- did some good with Wikileaks
- hasn't done good in a fucking long time
- skipped out on his house arrest in the UK (which is a crime)
- should not be extradited to the US (which are well known to hold barbaric and politically motivated trials and punishments)
- especially not for anything WIkileaks-related
- probably shouldn't have lost asylum rights (it's a super dangerous precedent)
- was not being "illegally detained" in the embassy - he could've walked out at any time to face the music
- was, by all accounts, a fucking nuisance and embarassment to have in the embassy -

OK, so no Chromebook, because the one I ordered was backlogged.
Has anyone tried installing a Linux flavour on an Acer Spin 5 or so? Any luck, or particular problems? -

Chat protocols are Fun Things to Hack Together, and have some thorny issues that are interesting problems in their own right. However, if your goal is to be The New Thing, don't. You will run into all the same issues that other protocols (notably XMPP) have already had to tackle several times with the current status being An Acceptable Tradeoff. If we want a global communication standard, we should focus on XMPP, as the most general, well-defined and decentralised alternative available, with many different implementation both of servers and clients, not to mention a broad range of small, medium, and large servers. -

I think copyright reform would be a whole lot more attractive to a lot of people (creators in particular) with a more reasonable and socialist society, where you don't need to worry about your family being taken care of in case of an emergency, and there never being a large enough pile of money to feel secure (short of several million dollars). -

DEMONETIZE ALL THE THINGS!
Work for free, play around usefully, give gifts to friends, ask for help when you need it, run infrastructure because it's cool, participate in organisations because they do good stuff.
