I hope I've done enough to show that it's very, very very clear that the folks calling me "a bad actor" are easily 10x more harmful to marginalized communities and the fediverse as a whole, as some Itty bitty shitty PyQt5 application.
I also hope I've done enough to show that even a little centralization is bad. Mastodon.social got too big for its britches, and Eugene is literally outright refusing to, not just neglecting to, but outright saying he will not, enforce his own Code of Conduct. He had to be wheedled and prodded to even show a little bit of transparency.
I seriously hope that I've made these things perfectly clear. Especially on that first part; At this point, I don't want to hear a god damned thing about someone being "harmed" by a PyQt5 application that downloads public content.
Because holy shit am I bored with this.
Here, I trimmed out the only part of the LoR teaser that's actually worth watching.
Little punk buddy doing what he does best: Building something amazing with a part someone was careless enough to drop into Zaun.
It's okay, you don't miss much after this scene. Just shittier inventors using Ekko's technology with like, no fucking attribution.
Richard Dawkins stripped of ‘humanist of the year’ award after inviting discussion on transgender issues in tweet
https://www.rt.com/usa/521540-dawkins-stripped-humanist-award/
I know there are a lot of good intentioned people including Dawkins himself on this issue. Many who want to protect the rights earned rightfully by trans people. Allowing zero discussion on these matters however, is not the way to go.

good fucking lord, look at the mess they made
As of this post, the latest kernel changelog doesn't show any of these reverts. They'll likely hit today or tomorrow. Until then, this is essentially a list of active Linux 0days.
Some of these will likely be very low hanging fruit for attackers. As soon as reverts drop, you should patch your shit immediately.

University banned from kernel development after professor and students repeatedly intentionally introduce security vulnerabilities into the Linux kernel.
Then they pull the inclusivity card when they're called out on it.
If you were wondering why Microsoft and all the rest are *really* big on Codes of Conduct and other shit that enables this sort of attack....

The kernel developers looked over previous contributions and found similar vulnerabilities.

Celebrate pissed somebody off.
Say what you will about signal but Moxie knows how to make a drop.
Developer, comedian, FOSS evangelist, proud truscum, hacker, and Ekko main. Primary developer of fediEngine. My general aversion to double standards angers SJWs and neo-nazis alike.
If you have such a disdain for "foss tech bros", you should put your money where your mouth is, by ceasing all use of their software. You can start by logging off the fediverse. Until then, I will follow, boost, and mention whomever I so please.
I shitpost, and I protect Ekko. This is my purpose.
