In the spirit of recycling, let me repeat the remark I made on the thread about the problem of software subscriptions: this is what you get for not supporting FOSS, especially its R&D.
- jimmyvalmer 5y agoIf Android is what I get for $800, I'd hate to see what I get for free.
- rglullis 5y agoI am saying exactly that free (as in speech) software is not free (as in beer), and the $800 never went to the support of a FOSS alternative. If your quip was an attempt at humor, it was bad. If it was an attempt at dismissing free/libre software, it was even worse.
- jimmyvalmer 5y agoUntil something fundamental changes about human nature, people will continue to find me unfunny, and gratis and libre will remain theoretically distinct but practically equivalent.
