Archiving email is hard. I don't blame you for not saving it.
Don't use the proprietary software on your computer. Use THEIR software
on THEIR computers.
Purism are not upfront about their offerings. People might fall for their
nice marketing parlance but at the end of the day, it is just that,
sugar-coated words without real meaning.
One might give them credit for trying not so hard and failing miserably.
The OS is a separate issue and it
Well, what do you know, something that comes from purism that is ACTUALLY
PURE!
;)
Don't really trust them though and I won't be using the os just because of
systemd alone...
but yeah... that's not the only reason.
*cough librem cough*
A page of that sort does not appear to exist, unfortunately.
There seems no community around it. As I go to the website (which seems very
basic) I find no reference to mailing lists, IRC channel, forums, or anything
at all beyond a bug tracking system.
Is there no page to see which distros have requested fsf endorsement? It
would be good if there was a transparent "waiting list" which included the
dates when each request was made.
They could make a libre laptop, but the specs would have to be lower. I don't
mind that they compromise on freedom for more modern hardware. It's not
ideal, but there is a set of people who would be unwilling to use any of the
machines supported by libreboot, and I would much rather they use

Dear Trisquel,
You know that they don't let me hack with you at work anymore. They even
pushed me to use M$ and Ma¢ crap. You also know that I am using another
distro at home, because I just needed more recent software. But girl! I have
found more
ConnochaetOS, Uruk, Hyperbola, CloverOS, Heads.
I haven't spoken with any of those developers in quite some time, especially
ConnochaetOS, but I know the last time I did they were all seeking
certification.
Yes, I also think that's where the Mate stuff is from, but as long as
/home/davidpgil/.guix-profile/share
is in there I don't see why that would matter
What is the output of$ echo ${GUIX_PROFILE}?
Uruk and Hyperbola aren't?
Doesn't Signal usually use Google play services to make the contact links? I
know there is a Libre version (https://fdroid.eutopia.cz/) but it uses a
different server backend to make it work.
Am I missing something here?
I am hoping the icons for the programs i install would appear in the pull
down menu. When I was using Trisquel 8, ADFENOs technique worked. But in
Trisquel 7, that doesn't work.

I have said for a while that I feel Purism has some good intentions but they
mess up the message so badly some times.
Their business interests butt up against the moral ones and they let the
business side win.
I'm sure if they could make fully-Libre hardware they will be the first to

I'm having issues getting this to work in Trisquel 7 ... What does your XDG
output look like? I think mine may be messed up somehow.
Would you make that post a manual? Trisquel's documentation is a wiki:
https://trisquel.info/en/wiki/all-manuals
I have no issues with Purism except for the way they promote their laptops,
so I don't know what prior experience could be biasing me against the way
they promote their laptops.
Have you read the page I linked to yet? It's not like I'm cherry picking a
few potentially misleading quotes
Your reply was everything I expected it to be; thanks for showing me that
unfair bias is still alive and well!
PureOS is based on Debian testing.
I will like to share how I manage to make a bridge between Ethernet to Wifi.
If all what your looking for is just to simply share your Internet connection
you don't necessarily need a bridge for that and it is easier to do so by
following some other how to on the Internet like the following
Just a note: I don't like Purism either (I think I've made that clear
enough), but it's possible to denounce one activity while being in favor of
another. There's nothing wrong with PureOS as an OS as long as it's entirely
libre, which has been verified to be the case.
Cool. Not one I'll likely be using personally, but it's nice to have another
option.
I forget, is this based on Sid, testing, or stable? I seem to recall it being
the testing branch, but I'm not entirely sure (the website doesn't say).
I don't think any other GNU distro is currently seeking endorsement.
Send the stdout and stderr of the command
sudo BUILD=flidas ARCH=amd64 pbuilder create
so I can compare it with mine. Also, make sure that you don't have a warning
about pbuilderrc missing. It you have that warning, that means that the
chrooted environment is not able to follow the symlink to

Yes, the FSF was very clear. I wish that Purism were equally transparent.

Minifree manages to survive selling only freedom
You're confusing PureOS, which is libre and warrants FSF endorsement, with
Librem laptops, which are not and do not. This is not your fault, but a
result of Purism being intentionally misleading at every opportunity.
> No, their laptops are not perfect now, but please show me a place where
they state/imply that they are.
I already have. The page I linked to
https://puri.sm/products/librem-15/
implies that the laptop has no freedom issues as strongly as possible without
making any explicitly false
downvoted, in the trollo hollo it needs to go, just like all that pure crap
:/
Most of the criticism of Purism that I see on this forum is a textbook
example of bikeshedding; rather than focusing efforts on criticizing the
people who explicitly, knowingly, and unapologetically make and endorse
proprietary software, those efforts are used to criticize a company about
> Then, you have to make sure that the file

It doesn't look like it was. Hmm ... what do I do now?
The FSF article states that Purisms hardware is still not approved. I think
its just the reality of tryign to run a business that costs millions of
dollars to keep afloat. They are AIMing to be pure and I think at least
cleaning up the distro is a great step in showing that. Its generally
It is quite strange. I realize PureOS has been a topic of discussion for a
while regarding an addition to the gnu.org recommended gnu/linux distros, but
there are so many free as in freedom distributions that I'm sure have been
waiting approval at this point.
I also realize the difficulty
Why would the FSF endorse PureOS if Purism was created a malicious distro? I
don't understand your arguments.
> Its like they all got high and just watched old videos of Steve Jobs for
hours when they were coming up with how they would engage with the world.
Haha. That sums it up better.
oh ya, I know. I'm just tired of people posting stuff the effect that no one
has personally explained to them why it is not available...without ever
trying to figure it out on their own. The example I used is right on the
Wikipedia page for those so inclined.
I'm more blunt when I am asked about them:
Purism = Slimeballs
Everything they do is just sudo-marketing double speak. Its like they all got
high and just watched old videos of Steve Jobs for hours when they were
coming up with how they would engage with the world.

I might recommend them to people who want a mostly libre system but are
willing to make some compromises to have more modern hardware.
I was curious to see if Purism had started conflating this with their
non-free hardware yet. They don't yet mention the FSF endorsement, but I had
forgotten just how slimy they are.

No mention of the fact that only the OS is free. They don't even disclose

Trisquel/Guix (or as I've taken to calling it lately, Trisquel+Guix) is a
great solution. You get the stability of a LTS distro with the ability to
upgrade a package to the latest version of a package if necessary. That said,
since the packages in Trisquel 8 are more up-to-date, I've found
If you read the link on EOMA68 it explains it in detail. If you want to fully
understand this stuff you need to invest attention into it. Its ALOT of info,
but I think it's very worthwhile to learn all about it. It would probably be
more useful to go on youtube and lookup Richard Stallman
:)
Tx, Alij, will do.
That's some great information right there, sir. Tyvm
3D printed keycaps for X200/T400 would be nice, with the user's own choice of
symbols on the keycaps. Then native dvorak would be possible. It would also
make it cheaper to get native keyboards in almost any layout.
After I accidentally "nuked" my Trisquel 8 Alpha install, I moved back to
Trisquel 7 because I heard from ADFENO and others that you can use the Guix
package manager with it.
Some things I would like to say and I may add more later as I get up and
running more...
- The Linux-Libre Kernel
I'm using Trisquel 7 now ... I have used usbmount before, but I felt it was
kinda weird. The way it works is it gives you soome usb1 through x "slots"
and you can plugin to those. I guess, if thats the only option, then I will
have another look at it and see if I can make it less weird to

At the moment there is very limited support for a purely non proprietary

Some options are:

Ah, yes.
I know the tubes and fittings doesn't contain any software, but for me
personally, it would bug me to buy from a company that also develops
waterblocks for locked/proprietary parts.
Yes, fixing the package builder is a priority, but it is quite a lot of work
(there are more things to fix than it looks like), so releasing Trisquel 8 is
an even higher priority. Here you can find some very nice sum up of the
meetings, that is usually updated on the road:
I wonder if Libreboot support channel might help.
If I recall correctly, the product you have has ways to contact the

Hi gnutastyc,
Thanks for the info. I downloaded that diff you pointed to and patched

that fixing the package builder should be a high priority, if it isn't
working properly.

I am using Signal on replicant. Just download the apk file from the signal

I described the problem here:
I think that the package "usbmount" should do the work for you. I have found
