    I see all of you believe what’s proper for a man is to be a coward, weak, and run away from words so that men are broken, insecure, and subervient.

    You have fun with that when a couple’s life is threatened and the man runs away screaming leaving the woman’s life in danger.






  • Mastodon can be heavy on censorship by banning IP addresses rather than individual accounts. Not banning an account, but IP. So when one instance bans an IP, that means that IP is blocked from all users on that instance.

    Twitter has never banned IP addresses, only accounts. Twitter does not keep a list of naughty words that result in immediate ban after posting, and suspended users can still reaxh Twitter to discuss the issue.

    It seems that federated platforms are more ban happy than the corporate platforms. If Lemmy and Mastodon really want to challenge the bigger companies, protect offensive posts, protect mockery and insults, people challenging or correct someone’s statement, and distinguish them from actual attacks and degrading words.



  • If you want to talk about anything to do with BSD, you can’t do it with a Linux mindset using Linux terminology if you don’t want to lead with your prejudices and ignorance as soon as you start talking.

    As a first step starting point, there is no such think as a BSD distribution or “distro”. TrueNAS and pfSense are not and have never been a distribution.

    I’m not going to give you all of the info or explain what they are, I’ll leave it at that for you to choose to dismiss it and stay ignorant or read and learn, expand your thinking, and stop crossing one operating system with a different operating system.





  • For real true freedom I like the ISC license for giving away source code.

    The constant argument about companies stealing source code is a cultural problem, not a license issue. Fix the social culture in society so people have ethical standards again, and companies will start to change their amoral behaviour. Not immoral, but amoral.

    GPL are fanatics who are leeches off of other peoples work to build anything. I have wondered if that’s why GPLv3 people have never built an operating system like BSD engineers and designers, only a collection of parts from different designers and made them come together.

    There is no operating system called GNU with a kernel and native format for installing software. There is no operating system called Linux with system libraries and a format to install software built into Liux natively.

    It’s like Stallman built the body of a care and ever dealt with the engine. Linus built an engine but didn’t know how to do anything with an engine like engineer the rest of the body.

    Each BSD is it’s own operating system with their own developers. A FreeBSD kernel can’t run OpenSD libraries.


  • With you adding my RAM, that’s exactly why I say 32GB of 4GB per core, to make sure everything runs while making sure not all hardware is being used so everything runs at max performance.

    For example if an 8 core 32GB system is using 6 cores and 14GB, then all programs are running as they should be with ease. But if a 16GB system is using 14GB, there’s not enough memory and might already be starting to pagefile.



  • I was going to say that I agree iPhones are smartphones are of no benefit, they don’t do anything, I’m being sarcastic, but looking closer at the list, how did they get it all so very wrong?

    Don’t need 64 bit for more than 4GB? Every new computer should have 32GB and 64GB is not unreasonable.

    Don’t need full HD? How does 8K resolution sound with 16K being developed?

    I question their basic knowledge and experience with technological advancements for higher demand, more complicated work loads, and adcancements for security protections like 64 bit memory address randomization that can’t exist on 32 bit hardware.


  • If it’s only licenses stopping companies, why has there never been a single company attempting to turn one of the BSD’s closed source when the license allows a company to take any one of the BSD’s source code and make it proprietary?

    Why is it only GPLv3 people and FSF people who rant like lunatics about protecting freedoms from companies, but a security operating system like OpenBSD has never been less than a libre operating system and without company or corporate people trying to repackage it when they have legal free will to do so?

    I’ve only seen companies donate cash and code to BSD developers, and have never developed any proprietary technologies to run on BSD. I say it’s a cultural and political difference that Linux-libre people do not have the capacity to grasp or comprehend.






  • It’s a broder societal cultural problem. No license can ever fix it. Companies and corporatons are made up of people, and if life has only taught them to wreck everybody they can, they will do their work with a mentality of exploiting any chance they to make sure only they succeed.

    Any kind of long term fix to change corporations will take generations, not a legal standard.

    There was a time when a verbal agreement and a handshake was an unbreakable commitment because people shared a common set of principals and personal values that bonded people together. It took generatios to destroy that sense of honour, it will take generations to get back to that. People are delusional if they think corporate exploitation can be fixed through courts, the law, or politics, only culture.
