Then it's absolutely soul-crushing to see Google abuse it's market dominance like that...

Wasn't there a licensing issue with jpeg xl for using Microsoft's some sort of algo?

Guix - It's basically an abstraction over software compilation and distribution. It uses guile lisp language as glue to bind it all together. (Full programming language to configure with)

The beauty arises if you want to get a minimal os running with a single application and package it either as a full iso or a docker container you can. Or if you need to get an OS to run as your router.

It's also highly encourages free software to the point, that proprietary software actually feels like huge downgrade to include. (Compilation from source is always available)

I've been using this only for 11 months. I've barely scratched the surface on what is possible. So I'm pretty sure I'm not making it justice on what a gem it is. For example: Only recently I started to use programs in an immutable way.

Hur durr... You have different interests... Therefore degenerate...

Do you even realize how incredibly stupid the whole concept of tribalism is?

It's surprising how many people are siding with the drug dealer. The dude doesn't even pay taxes...

It's interesting to see how differently people see the war by the information bubbles they are in. (Looking at the upvotes)

Edit: fixed a typo

Hey all. Can anyone recommend me a path or some resouces how I could more learn about Guix? I know packaging is a large part of Guix, yet the information on how to package, or contribute in providing packages seems little difficult to find. Thank you.

You might be surprised, but there is quite a chunk of people who can't afford such a luxury.

But why should I know it?

It's only illegal/unethical if you view it from the perspective of capitalism. On most fronts it's actually ethical. I know it's difficult to grasp due to heavy advertisement on IP law, but IP barely provides more than it takes away. Shit 3d printing exploded once IP was no longer in effect. Coronavirus vaccine would be available for 3rd countries (Now they pay way more per shot than they should)

Not to mention piracy actually preserves media that is culturally significant. (insert monopoly IP story here) Piracy does seem like a way to protest against a broken system.

Punk political ideologies are mostly concerned with individual freedom and anti-establishment views. Common punk viewpoints include individual liberty, anti-authoritarianism, a DIY ethic, non-conformity, anti-corporatism, anti-government, direct action, and not "selling out".

I wonder if the ideology is still alive and kicking, or it's all about the conformity of a subgroup itself?
