Re: [Trisquel-users] Family Buying Me Cellphone Without My Consent
Everyone here is correct that no one has the right to force you to do anything. That said, I know that it is hard not to let that happen in certain relationships. While I've started using JMP recently, I still have a cell phone that I leave at home but use to communicate with my family. I keep putting off telling them because my views on software freedom are relatively recent and I'm uncomfortable with people I've known for a long time realizing I've changed. Your situation is a little different, in that you have been getting along fine without a phone and people are used to you not having one. Using one would be a step backward. I would suggest getting rid of it or not using it, and explaining to your family why you are uncomfortable using it. Hopefully they will come to accept your decision, even if they don't understand it right now. That said, you know your family and I don't. If you really feel that your relationship with them would seriously suffer from not taking the phone out of the box, perhaps you could try doing what I do with friends who still try to call or text my cell phone. They know that I can only check my JMP messages when I am connected to WiFi, so they'll sometimes try to contact me through my phone hoping I'll respond faster. I intentionally only check my phone once a day, and when I respond I will do so through JMP. It might also help to make sure that you don't allow yourself to be held responsible for the "inconvenience" caused by not having a cell phone. If someone plans to meet you somewhere, you show up on time, and they can't contact you to change plans because you aren't carrying a cell phone, you are not the one who is being irresponsible. If they express worry over the fact that you can't call 911 with JMP, point out that the FCC recommends using a landline or payphone to call 911 because cell phones do not precisely provide your location to the dispatcher, making it difficult for emergency services to respond in time. It's true that landlines and payphones are becoming less common now, but cellphones are the cause, not the solution. Allowing cell phones to become so ubiquitous that they are they only way to get emergency assistance is the greater danger. That's only if you really feel that you must take the phone out of the box. I would suggest that you first refuse to touch the thing all, but family is complicated, I can't know your situation, and I won't tell you what to do. Just remember that no matter how much you are pressured, your principles and desire to be free are not the problem. Don't let anyone make you feel like you are the one being stubborn or difficult.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Family Buying Me Cellphone Without My Consent
Are you a minor? What do you mean by "shaming"? What are they saying? What are they telling you to do? What kind of government program?
Re: [Trisquel-users] Are there any famous celebrities that advocate Free Software?
That is how I generally feel too. I think copyright is fine on arts and different works but just not when it comes to software generally because art really doesn't need to be changed. It doesn't get bugs it just has a message. If I were to write a book/ make a painting I would probably do a limited copyright that went to public domain/CCSomething after some time (years). At least that's the plan. Also "I own the sole right to allow or disallow anyone from using it." sounds nice, I like that idea. "I need money to live sadly..." This is generally why copyright was made anyway... so people could make money of their artistic/literative works. The way it is implemented now though is just not the best.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Family Buying Me Cellphone Without My Consent
Sounds like your family isn't respecting your decisions which is something you can't really control. You can assertively tell them your decision and why and stick with it.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Are there any famous celebrities that advocate Free Software?
I agree very much with this. Free software is a choice that people should make, not something that should be imposed on them. Ubuntu is a good stepping-stone away from the sinister Windows/Apple world.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Family Buying Me Cellphone Without My Consent
I feel bad giving the device away, because I don't feel it's mine to give away. It's thru a government program. Not turning it on works for a while, just as keeping my mouth shut as police keep badgering me with questions works for a while. But after an hour or a few days with my family continually shaming me, I weaken my resolve.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Are there any famous celebrities that advocate Free Software?
We need a balance between encouragement, enforcement towards freedom. IT is hard to do, but when people take a step towards free software, we should encourage them to go further, not condemn them for not going far enough.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Are there any famous celebrities that advocate Free Software?
Actually, with that attitude, I fear people will not understand our purposes. I think we should not condemn, or condone at the least if we disagree with such things... As for me, I may have changed my mind on using CC BY SA ver 4... I may make all of my books on a copyright. One that both expires within 30 years, but I own the sole right to allow or disallow anyone from using it. I need money to live sadly... I will however allow anyone who wants to when one is published to make a free software game if they want. It is my right after all. As long as you don't copy the text and are bringing the characters to life in a graphical sort of way... yeah. And of course when the 30 years expires it will automatically be set to become that license. That is my wish. That is my plan anyways. this will apply to each book. You can call me a traitor if you want, like you did him... but it will get you literally nowhere. I must first of course publish it, but yeah. If you have recommendations for publishers who will allow that let me know. If possible maybe 25 years? Yeah... for the whole series. That is all. ;)
Re: [Trisquel-users] No open FSF/GNU forum?
leestro...@gmail.com wrote: Perhaps there really is a need for someone to set up a free, open and independent forum, which can act as a focal-point for the Free Software community? How hard is it to set up/maintain a forum? I think the concept of a focal point is wrongheaded, particularly when it comes to free (as in freedom) discussion. Every free software project (even different GNU distribution) will continue to make their own choices for hosting and get into or avoid the problems I mention here. Also, we don't need a single point of focus any more than any other topic discussed anywhere needs one: let a thousand flowers bloom while recognizing that some choices are better at achieving certain ends than others. There are lots of books covering the same topics, lots of websites, and so on. Software freedom or the GNU OS can (and so far has) gone the same way. When it comes to what hosting software should be chosen, I find that web forums are highly overrated and ultimately a problem, not a solution. There are some concepts that have always been simply inappropriate for a centralized deployment. Web forums are currently deployed in a centralized way (on purpose) thus they are inherently censor-friendly, they're very hard to get complete and provably accurate archives from (by design; bad design choices), and they're likely to unnecessarily require Javascript (JS) to be fully useful. These two problems are sufficient to arm any anti-software freedom argument simply by pointing out the readily-apparent ironies. Web forum moderators/hosters also like to put in ridiculous non-features like rating systems on posts and use points gained/lost as a default way to keep low-scoring posts from being seen right along side high-scoring posts. I maintain that proper scoring, filtering, or anything like that is properly done only on the endpoint by the user, and done in a way that the servers that client uses have no idea the scoring/filtering is being done. In other words, my scores/filters are nobody else's business. Unmoderated mailing lists are only marginally better than web forums as commonly implemented today: no JS use needed (which is a huge plus and completely avoids the nonfree-JS problem), and they're more likely to send copies of posts immediately. Scoring systems implemented on mailing lists are very likely to fail as there's no standard for such a thing with emails (which is good). But they're still centralized; if one is kicked off the list one has to use another email address and possibly some subterfuge to get back on the list and that's not good. Public archives reading is easily curtailed through subscriber-only archives, and web-based archive access can also reintroduce the needless JS problem or fail to offer bulk archives in useful formats (like a compressed mbox archive). GMane goes some way toward fixing this, but even a hundred gmane workalikes wouldn't fix the underlying centralization. Archives become less reliable because the same party that could censor posts can also edit the archives (this problem would go away with widespread support for public key crypto use, but that's not popular enough to be practical for post verification now). But netnews (particularly with widely distributed newsgroups available on many news servers) is far better on this ground than either mailing lists or web forums: no JS needed at all, scoring is optional and done at the endpoint, and an increased chance of avoiding censorship through competitive service delivery. If one NNTP server blocks one from posting and/or reading there, or if some server admin does something foolish to the posts, users can move to other servers. Single-server newsgroups are a problem for the same reasons mailing lists and web forums are a problem -- a single point of failure and control (censorship) over the user.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Family Buying Me Cellphone Without My Consent
Are you asking how to dispose of unwanted electronics, or how to not use them? If the former, give them to someone else. If no one else wants it, give it to someone who takes electronics for recycling. Best Buy does this. If the latter... just don't turn it on? I don't know what else to tell you. What, are you incapable of telling someone that you choose not to use your phone? On a side note, why does anyone need your consent to buy you something? That's an awfully strange authoritarian perspective.
[Trisquel-users] Family Buying Me Cellphone Without My Consent
I have SMS and telephone access with Ekiga and Pidgin, using the JMP service, so I'm not completely without a phone. Yet, today I learned that my family has decided to get a cellphone for me behind my back. Every day I don't open it, they'll ask "Where's your phone?" How do I keep this phone out of my life?

Re: [Trisquel-users] No open FSF/GNU forum?
I'm new to mailing lists, but I'm finding them more convenient than forums.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Where is and when trisquel 8 will be released?
This whole "init freedom" nonsense conflates technical convenience with freedom. You do not lack freedom to use something other than systemd because everyone else makes their code work exclusively with systemd. You can choose to use an outdated system, or fork that component, or develop a whole new component, or heck, you can even program a whole new OS from the ground up. Libre software is not about choosing what programs you run. No one is forcing you to run any program. Libre software is about your freedom to, if you choose, study and change the programs that you do run. systemd is ethical because you have the right to study, change, and share it. I don't care how little you like it. If you don't like it, don't use it. If you need it to use some other libre program, exercise your freedom to either change systemd to your liking, or remove the systemd dependency. That is your responsibility and your responsibility alone.

I'm not sure what, if anything, of Ubuntu was shown, but, a lead character mentioned it by name. Afaik, this has happened once in the entire series called The Big Bang Theory. Otherwise, characters are shown using Skype and their IThings. Oh, and I think Ubuntu got a brief mention in a Tom Clancy novel; I think all his books are best-sellers. A character was talking about outfitting laptops for field operatives in a ficticious intelligence agency, and how the operating system's openness and freedom allow the agency to purpos-build their systems. H, free software used to spy on folks; not sure I like that much... Now, if only I could remember which book this was... If I hadn't been using ShuttleworthOS at the time, I probably wouldn't have noticed. If only we could get more prominent placement.

Re: [Trisquel-users] No open FSF/GNU forum?
Just to follow up on this thread I started a while ago: I donated $10 to the FSF yesterday, because I was interested to try out their forum (as well as to contribute to their efforts on free software, of course!). I went on there, expecting to see a thriving free-software community, discussing various campaigns and projects. However, I must say I was disappointed by the lack of activity. I won't be any more specific, as I don't want to 'dish dirt' on another forum, but the activity is certainly less than on here. I guess it figures, seeing as it is only open to paying members. Perhaps there really is a need for someone to set up a free, open and independent forum, which can act as a focal-point for the Free Software community? How hard is it to set up/maintain a forum?

Yes, that is more what I was getting at. For example, Hollywood or TV stars, or musical artists.

It seems fairly rare that I see GNU/Linux used or mentioned on mainstream media. I guess it's hard to compete with the big advertising bucks from Microsoft/Apple/Google ...

[Trisquel-users] Global Value Chains and the Missing Exports of the United States
If trade statistics included the value of intellectual property rights associated with physical goods, the United States would see an increase in export capacity and a decrease in the trade deficit. More and more American multinational corporations are outsourcing the production and assembly of their products to foreign companies. When they do so, they derive the largest share of their revenue from the intellectual property embedded in core technological innovation and brand names. However, conventional trade statistics are compiled based on the value of goods crossing national borders, as declared to customs. Generally, the added value associated with intellectual property rights and embedded in physical goods is not recorded as either export or import of any country. Hence, current trade statistics greatly underestimate United States (US) exports and substantially exaggerate its trade deficit. In this paper, we use the case of Apple, the largest American consumer products company, to illustrate the failure of conventional trade statistics to report actual US export capacity in the age of global value chains. According to our analysis of this case, if the value added of Apple intellectual property sold to foreign consumers was counted as part of US exports, total US exports would increase by 3.2%, and its trade deficit would decrease by 6.4%. In terms of bilateral trade, the value added under examination here would lower the US trade deficit with the region comprising the People’s Republic of China; Hong Kong, China; Taipei,China; and Macau, China by 5.7%, and that with Japan by 7.8%. https://www.adb.org/publications/global-value-chains-and-missing-exports-united-states

That's what Mr. Smart Person told me to do and it works great!" and I also need to stop logging on when I'm in a crappy mood and just want human interaction. I don't think I'm some perfect forum poster or anything, but this community is very important to both of us and I think we are an integral part of it. Community building is part of rms' lasting legacy, IMNSHO, and something I look at with awe and respect.

Megver83 is correct that arch-chroot will work. If you like Pacman and find Pacstrap helpful...why don't you just use Pacman on Trisquel?

This makes for less work in the long run.

Some countries don't allow you to bring batteries over a certain size on the plane, that could be the issue.

You did not post this thread to have an open exchange of ideas. You deserved to be downvoted. Anyone who qualifies their statements with "or I'll leave" should just leave. They are clearly overly invested in an online forum they are no longer able to contribute to. You have been here a long time, you have helped a lot of people.

You have free speech, downvotes do no prevent you from using free speech. They do prevent you from using free speech WITHOUT CONSEQUENCES. You are not entitled to have every post be well received or openly debated. People have that right to express their free speech by saying "man, what a shitty thing to say" downvote it, and move on with their lives. Today you are a troll.
