I like to think I'm a student of life. I spend my time learning more about electronics. Also math, python, LaTeX, dataviz, biking, photography, & dogs. #nobot

@nolan I read a book called the "Jesus Mysteries" 20 something years ago.

@dansup the grief I felt after losing my dog completely destabilized my life. He was my child and it crushed me. The resulting depression is still something that I'm working through years later as is the notion of what is important to focus on in my life.

@[email protected] fyi mastodon is licensed under AGPL from FSF. Sometimes we realize we've used great software built by a whole community and we have a desire to create something to share.
The whole idea may be naive and easily abused but the purity of the action transcends beyond capitalism.
@[email protected] maybe I'm just tired, but I don't quite understand how GPL impedes freedoms when the whole point is to share and enforcement that improvements are also shared. Whether that is enforced or not is a different issue.
I haven't heard anything about GitHub linked with ICE. I have no idea what programmer you're talking about.
