"The governmentâs attempt to brand non-violent direct activists as âterroristsâ has already backfired ~ Tabitha Troughton ~ This was the week when language in the UK temporarily gave up. At the bombing of Iran, the British people fell silent, or lapsed into incoherence, or sat in corners, clutching their heads. Trump and Netanyahu were classifiable, âŠ"

From Periphery to Pivot: Greeceâs Path to Reclaiming Viability
counterpunch.org/2025/06/23/frâŠ
"Evaggelos Vallianatos paints a bleak yet impassioned portrait of Greeceâs demographic collapse, economic subjugation, and geopolitical marginalization. His diagnosis contains many truths. Greece is indeed in a prolonged state of crisis. Its countryside is hollowing out, its young are emigrating in waves, and its political class

have to do such an onfido face check signin thing where you have to upload your passport and it compares with your real face. I put a watermark on the passport so they can't steal it, but it refuses the watermark. I can't use it with my browser on GrapheneOS. I can't use their mobile app, since it's meant for vendors. I can't use my PC, since they require mobile phone.
I don't have emoji to express how irate I am.

Journalistiek is niet onpartijdig, maar moet verandering bewerkstelligen, de macht controleren en opkomen voor kwetsbare groepen, betoogt journalist Fréderike Geerdink in haar nieuwe boek. Daarin slagen Nederlandse media slecht, stelt zij.Gijs Beukers (DPG Media)

in reply to Brodie Robertson • • •Open does mean open, open to others to play with. Nothing to do with the ability to monetize it though.
The author can't be 'not allowed' to sell it, unless of course they've picked some license that restricts it.
Only if people understood đ

in reply to Brodie Robertson • • •I see a similar way of thinking with OOTB software stacks and freedom/choice. The freedom/choice part is of the code IIUC, not with any final packaging that some project offers. So it doesn't make much sense when someone says, 'they're taking away our choices by not supporting x anymore'. That final profuct is of the projects, of course it'll be what they want it ro be.
People's freedom lies in the ability to take the code and do whatever, anything more is a bonus IMHO.

in reply to Brodie Robertson • • •I'd like to see them answer the question "What's wrong with a FOSS dev asking for donations?"
I'm guessing their answer will be "I don't like it". Which is really lousy.

in reply to Brodie Robertson • • •they don't know Jack about open source. I would honestly suggest they watch Revolution OS. Granted, it is an old documentary about Linux and open source in general.
But you learn about GNU and GPL (v2), plus the fact that you ARE allowed to profit off of free software. As long as you understand what license you're using.
You can profit off of open source directly or indirectly. Offer a support resource or a purchasable binary. But the source code must be freely available.
