Chrome isn't open source?

We bailed them out of TWO world wars.

Trivia quiz: which allied power was responsible for delivering the final blow to Nazi Germany? Hint: it wasn't the US.

You're delusional if you think America is responsible for "saving Europe" or whatever other fantasy you have dreamed up.

I vote for Debian sid (the "rolling" version of Debian). I use it and it's great.

These have existed before the term "chiplet".

By "lack of developer freedom", do you mean "lack of ability to take the freedom you got with the code away from the next person?"

Because that's the primary restriction with the GPL.

Don't get me wrong, I dont think it's right to forbid people from collaborating in an open environment just because of what their government does, and frankly the arguments that the normal people should be punished because of their government are stupid, but it's just, not racism.

Oh wow the bot isn't telling people what to think anymore.

No US-centric left-right scale, no "accuracy" rating decided by the guy who runs it, etc, etc.

Very nice. This bot should shut up more often.

Zuck: Yeah so if you ever need info about anyone at Harvard

Zuck: Just ask.

Zuck: I have over 4,000 emails, pictures, addresses, SNS

[Redacted Friend's Name]: What? How'd you manage that one?

Zuck: People just submitted it.

Zuck: I don't know why.

Zuck: They "trust me"

Zuck: Dumb fucks

So the only ones who could actually go after them to force anything are the ones who originally wrote that GPL code

Not necessarily, the SFC is involved in a big case regarding Vizio about this right now. The FSF was brought in to explain the intended interpretation and spirit of the GPL.

archive.org could archive the content and only publish it if the page has been dark for a certain amount of time.

It's user-driven. Nothing would get archived in this case. And what if the content changes but the page remains up? What then? Fairly sure this is why Wikipedia uses archives.

I agree that many sites use advertising in a different way. I use it in the older internet sense -- someone contacts me to sponsor a page or portion of the site, and that page gets a single banner, created in-house, with no tracking. I've been using the internet for 36 years. I'm well aware of many uses that I view as unethical, and I take great pains not to replicate them on my own site.

Pretty sure mainstream ad blockers won't block a custom in-house banner. And if it has no tracking, then it doesn't matter whether it's on Archive or not, you're getting paid the same, no?

Personally I think Facebook should face as much pushback as possible, unless we want them to do to this what Google did to XMPP.
