Any large system that attempts to maintain backwards compatibility will eventually become a victim of backwards compatibility.

"What is the capital of Mexico? Mexico City" sounds like a trick question.

A few scenes from the #portland #climatestrike that happened yesterday – turns out the kids are alright! There must have been 10,000–20,000 people in the streets.

4 DAY WORK WEEK, 4 HOUR WORK DAY should be the rallying cry of the left

The mass media.

I've been using #invidious instead of YouTube's homepage to watch videos from creators that I dig.

Not only does it not get throttled from tmobile but also the interface has a ton less bloat.

It's like #NewPipe for the desktop.

I still can't believe how red the sun was on that smokey day in BC. #Photography #Film

Engels' Instagram would be popping, but Marx would be one of those YouTubers who posts a bunch of multiple hour long discussion videos, promises to post more regularly then vanishes for months

I think RMS's focus on licensing was/is also quite harmful.

It's the power structures around software that matter, not license minutia. Sure, you need an open license for accountable software but it's not nearly sufficient by itself.

Just look at all those software companies having tight control over a bunch of projects despite an open source license. Tech companies figured this out in the mid 2000s, heck even Microsoft realized this in the last few years.
