I’m sorry, his name was what?
“You can’t put lipstick on a pig” was popular for about a year in the US, circa 2007
Good point, that’s much more apt
It also adds clutter and noise to a public space, making it more irritating to scroll through comments. It’s like someone having a private conversation on speaker phone while you’re waiting in line at a Starbucks or whatever.

I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re refering to as Stallman, is in fact, GNU/Stallman, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Stallman.

I think in the end it all comes down to putting power back into the hands of regulators — power that corporate America has been slowly and steadily eroding for the last 40 years.
A more powerful regulatory state could start enforcing the anti-trust laws we already have on the books by breaking up the massive tech monopolies. Once that’s done, new regulations and new legislation against anti-consumer practices are needed, but those will only work if the punishments scale high enough to work as an actual deterrent against the multi-billion dollar tech giants.
Of course, we’d also need massive, MASSIVE campaign finance and lobbying reforms so that monied interested aren’t able to sabotage the system all over again.

Elon Musk, the CEO of company, has next to nothing to do with Tesla?
Is this why Elon is working so hard to run Tesla into the ground? 5d chess, something something…
Well, you would have to be a little bit suicidal to blow the whistle on Boeing now, after seeing what happened to the last two guys…
More like “don’t fuck around but find out anyway”.

That’s what they want. Get all the users they aren’t able to monetize off the platform to lower their costs.
Right? I guess all the good names where already taken
