10:55 asciilifeform crtdaydreams: the reiser 'boycott' had 0 to do, at its root, with 'ohnoez he axed wife'. it was part of the de-individualization gotterdammerung of opensores, where faceless corp-sponsored 'Official' projects displaced those of actual-person works

12:52 * signpost would barely be able to contain his boner if it turns out the "UAP" items are a superior country having cracked gravity manip.
