2017-07-19 Thread Massimo Coppola

Dear all

as a usually silent listener, I do understand the exceptional need for 
moderation.

Do not destroy the comunity with noise or completely not relevant topics: beyond 
some point this cannot be ignored, even in spite of useful tecnnical 
contribution, as it drives away more contributions. What Jaromil asked to Miro 
should really be taken seriously by everyone.


I also wish to say that this is not a fight arena or a market: we don't need to 
break even with each other, and if someone ends up moderated because he really 
crossed the line, it does not mean we all automatically gain the right to go in 
the same direction or that much far.


Please don't ever take things personally, anyone: the boat moves too much and 
may topple, so we should _all_ stay sitting. It really does not matter who shook 
it first or most.


Since I like to try and be coherent with what I suggest to you all, I will not 
comment further on the thread: I hope I made myself clear and I did not offend 
anyone. But in case you think I am mistaken and out of topic, feel free to put 
my address on your ignore list. It may be a good start.


Kind regards

Massimo

People,

Please stop replying, just apply the Del key.

Because unless the list gnomes apply the cluestick (or worse), nothing will 
stop those who want to continue with their OT rants, self-righteously claiming 
they can do so because someone else also did.

2017-07-19 Thread Jaromil


you were warned, now in moderation.

hope we are finished here?

I definitely do not love doing this...

to all newcomers please refer to this guide to understand what is
going on and how to respect this open space for discussion about
Devuan http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc1855.txt especially the
one-to-many section.


The DNG mailinglist is the first campfire after the debianfork
declaration, it now counts more than 500 subscribers and is almost 4
years old.

Please do keep on topic, avoid personal attacks (also to developers of
systemd!!) and refrain from telling us your world view, because we are
many different people and we are not here to talk just about anything,
but about Devuan.

Any off-topic post accompained by disrespect for the diversity
gathered here won't be tolerated and sadly moderated. Please also
understand we do not love moderation nor have a dedicated staff for
it, so fuzz may happen and is acted upon with a certain delay.

Please tell me you're going to moderate extreme left views as well.
I for one find both bible-thumping and SJWery to be equally repulsive.
Neither has a place on a list devoted to discussing ways to fix regressions
caused by systemd.

And I hope you won't dismiss me without thinking -- while there's a lot more
I should have been doing, at least I'm not all talk, having contributed to
openrc, de-pulsification or my repository of de-systemdized packages.  I'd
prefer to have a place to ask for advice -- for example, it looks like
there's an important battle coming by related to replacing logind now that
-shim is falling apart (thus letting the systemd crowd claim a reason to
make GUIs systemd-only) -- but if this mailing list is going to turn into an
echo chamber for the extreme left, I don't think I'd be able to stay.

YOU GET A GRIP among other things. I have been bombarded with crypto-nazi
propaganda for days and didn't say a word, and you are going to get strict with 
me!
Seriously, if something else bothered you say so, or get a mental health

Go and look at the stats of how many emails I have received on the subject

I am new here and I have to admit the surprise as first three emails I got from
the list were of this topic. I agree that if the choices of the team that made
devuan is what brought us here we should stick to our common interest of the
system under this specific philosophy (# of bugs is irrelevant if you want to
struggle under the same ideals as those diclared by founders).
Although I totally reject all symbolism as significant, color choices and 
symbols
have little to do with why we are here. On the other hand, and I am 
unfortunately
not gay, if such a rumor goes around and keeps out all kinds of fascists, 
authoritarians,
religious freaks, nationalists and all sorts of fanatic fans of anything, I 
will not
mind at all, nor will I be willing to participate in any such change.
I will have to think about it in more detail, but going to a gay parade with a 
rainbow
flag and a Devuan logo or t-shirt is within the scope of things I do. :)
If it pisses off systemd priesthood, google-nazis, mozilla-nationalists, and 
microsoft
cops, I am all for giving them heartache.
Unfortunately as stated above is that I am socially conditioned to fear to love 
or
be loved by a person of the same gender. It is a psychopathology that lucky gay
people don't have or they have overcome that fear. And I am dedicated to the
struggle of being free. Fortunately I did love my father and love my son, 
comfortably.
But "gender ideology", get a grip of yourselves.
There is nothing more conservative than not having an ideology, from being
middle of the road, or neutral. Were you neutral when the Turks exterminated
Armenians, when the Cypriots were exterminating Turks, when the Nazis
exterminated the Jews, or when the US invaded Serbia, or when Greek authorities
were murdering Syrian refugees trying to reach the coast? What in this world
is it that you don't care about and you are neutral about. 10 centuries of
English apartheid in Ireland maybe?
At least fascists have an alibi of having a belief, you have nothing, whoever 
you
are being neutral, you consumer you, you false excuse for a being!___

Actually, at this point I'd say it's Miroslav who's right (even though I
vehemently disagree with ideology he's pushing).  Basically, we have
proponents of two, extremely and about equally vile, worldviews, and one of
these sides doesn't stop hypocritically calling everyone bigots and
demanding them to stop talking while keeping promoting their side.
It's not to say the other is any better -- they have a history of using
violent means to silence opposition, up to and including genocide; I'm just
pointing out that it's the Left that's in force on this list.

And at this time, the Left has a near-monopoly on racism, sexism, and so on,
despite their own rhetoric.  The Right also has massive downsides (like,
keeping a coal plant of 30MV+ running just two days kills one human by
short-term pollution alone, not including long-term global warming), etc.
The total amount of evil on both sides is staggeringly high, and
surprisingly balanced.  I'd elaborate more but such a discussion would be
the worst idea if we want to turn down the flames.

Thus, I'd propose an, at least temporary, ban on issues not related to
getting rid of systemd and other software nastiness, running a distribution,
assorted _tech_ banter.  Even telling us your daughter damaged her bike by
driving onto a porcupine, while OOT, is harmless.

On the other hand, let's forbid discussing _here_ the matters of orange nazi
clowns vs the Mother of Lies, pushing leftist or rightist views of
sexuality, and so on, so on.  It's hard to have sex over a TCP/IP
connection, you see -- thus it's completely irrelevant to people not in your
proximity.

And I'm saying this as someone whose country is undergoing a coup by extreme
Right that's likely to leave us worse than Turkey -- so I don't love them
the slightest bit.  But let's have balance, and if polite discussion doesn't
seem to be possible, let's move such topics elsewhere.

No. We need more tolerance and compassion for those who are socially

inappropriate, off-topic content to this list arises.


This list is not a chat room.  Or a soapbox.  What has been going on

please everyone . . . get a grip and THINK before you post.  Make those

I don't want to sound nasty, but if people want to leave this mailing
list because of problems, this isn't going to solve the problems. 

Instead of unsubscribing, contacting the admins to put a stop to this,
is much more of a solution.

they do say patience is a virtue after all... i see why in my own life...

but yeah... unsubscribing only helps the person who leaves. let's rally
for changes in the mailing list.  If this is an issue which I think it
may be... and i admit, i was guilty too... but i am willing to change
and so should everyone else who is involved.

It's perfectly possible to run a server on devuan without paying any

Really Miroslav: first the Croatians and the history of their
heritage. Next the interpretation of the bible. Then a mixture of
random rants about gender and conservatorism.

Everything potentially interensting, but probably not that much at all
for the large majority of the subscribers of *this* *list*, who are
just focused on getting systemd out of their computers, and developing
Devuan.

You should probably consider opening a blog for that stuff, and stop
