His position is that non-free firmware that's in ROM is okay because it isn't really software at that point, it may as well be a hardwired function of the chip, which is freely available for all code to use. It's right there in the OP link.

Sorry, but as someone who's been using PS for years, yours looks horribly manipulated. The watermark removal on his forearm could have been done a lot better, the text on the fly next to him was obviously done with no effort, and his scalp is ridged compared to the original drawing. The paper he is drawing on is ruffled in the original, but your version doesn't even have an outline. You can see the original colour of his shirt in the outlines. The pencil with the text "100% white pride" could have used the same font as the rest of the pencils.

Sorry, mate.

Rights don't exist naturally, we were rather born with freedom (no outside entity such as government attempting to restrict what we can do).
"Rights" are all about politics.

Why do you believe killing a fetus is OK, but killing a newborn isn't?
>>
>>34828158
Not at conception, dingus. Takes at least a few weeks for that to happen.
There's also the fact that a fetus isn't fully developed until just before it decides to come out.
Of course, I still wouldn't care even if a fetus was a person the moment a chick gets jizzed in. We don't need more babies, societies with available abortion are proven to prosper.

How does it make you feel that RMS emailed this text to an intern (free as in beer), who then updated his site because he can't HTML.

Can you taste his tears as he talks about the most popular Linux/Linux distro, android, which is GNU free (free as in HIV- means free from AIDs).

His rejection of Intel CPUs is the greatest endorsement they can get. Parrot rapers use AMD apparently. Does that mean he got rid of his free Chinese (free as in the Chinese have any freedom) shitop?

Debian's Social Contract states the goal of making Debian entirely free software, and Debian conscientiously keeps nonfree software out of the official Debian system. However, Debian also provides a repository of nonfree software. According to the project, this software is “not part of the Debian system,” but the repository is hosted on many of the project's main servers, and people can readily learn about these nonfree packages by browsing Debian's online package database.

There is also a “contrib” repository; its packages are free, but some of them exist to load separately distributed proprietary programs. This too is not thoroughly separated from the main Debian distribution.

Previous releases of Debian included nonfree blobs with Linux, the kernel. With the release of Debian 6.0 (“squeeze”) in February 2011, these blobs have been moved out of the main distribution to separate packages in the nonfree repository. However, the problem partly remains: the installer in some cases recommends these nonfree firmware files for the peripherals on the machine.
>>
>>34828848
Sure, why not. If you ignore the non-free programs, you'll be fine.

I'd like to clear up some erroneous information about where I stand that is circulating on 4chan and perhaps elsewhere.

I have a low opinion of Gentoo GNU/Linux.
Gentoo is a GNU/Linux distribution, but its developers don't recognize this; they call it "Gentoo Linux". That means they are treating me and the GNU Project disresepectfully.

More importantly, Gentoo steers the user towards nonfree programs, which is why it is not one of our recognized free distros.

See the GNU distros list for the distros that I do recommend.

The latest Intel PC processors are useless in the Free World, because they require a proprietary program to initialize the memory and a signed proprietary blob in the northbridge chip.
I don't know how much better the current AMD processors are, but they are surely not worse.

Regarding graphics accelerators for PCs, ATI mostly cooperates with the free software movement, while nVidia is totally hostile. ATI has released free drivers.
However, the ATI drivers use nonfree microcode blobs, whereas most of nVidia's products (excepting the most recent ones) work ok with Nouveau, which is entirely free and has no blobs.

Thus, paradoxically, if you want to be free you need to get a not-very-recent nVidia accelerator.

I wish ATI would free this microcode, or put it in ROM, so that we could endorse its products and stop preferring the products of a company that is no friend of ours.

Android is not, in practice, an entirely free operating system. It has problems , larger or smaller depending on which product. The problems of nonfree driver libraries, and the universal back door in cell phone radio communication software, are imposed by the hardware and are not directly the fault of Android, but that does not make them ok.
>>
There are two different licenses that some refer to as "the BSD license". Both are free software licenses, but the difference has major practical consequences. To avoid confusion, please always say which one you mean — don't say "the BSD license" as if there were just one.
If you support the idea of free software, how about helping our work? Most of the movement's work is done by volunteers, and you can be one of them. See gnu.org/help for a list of suggested ways to help. It is not necessary to be a programmer, because there are other kinds of help we need too.

Freedom here means that communities are free to come together to help one another when they wish. Proprietary software restricts communities from sharing software, restricts sharing detailed knowledge about it as well as restricting improvements made to the software. In other words, the community controls the development of the software and not a proprietor.
