[Trisquel-users] Running out of space in partition 1

2016-10-29 Thread aferyok
My Partition 1 has 15GB, with 2.6GB still free, about 83% full.  I have not  
installed any software other than what I am required to.  Each time I do an  
update, I have a little bit less space left.
I have had this computer for at least two years (perhaps four).  Do I need to  
manually delete log files with sudo?  Do I need to leave my computer on  
overnight?  How do I fix this?  Thank you.


[Trisquel-users] Free software before the free software movement

I see text here describing that program source code was shared, people 
modified the source to port the program to their systems, and trusted only 
programs that came to them as source code (all valuable ends and right & 
proper thinking). I don't see a key aspect found in the Free Software 
movement -- political activism revolving around the idea that free software 
is the right way to treat other people and distributing nonfree software is 
ethically wrong. Just because people behaved in the ways they did, they 
didn't do so as part of a political movement stressing software freedom for 
its own sake (or, later, as the Open Source advocates did: set up a 
right-wing corporate reaction against software freedom, saying software 
freedom didn't matter and eschewed software freedom to favor business).


Also the English Wikipedia article conflates the price and liberty meanings 
of the word "free", mentioning both and switching between the two as if no 
significant shift had occurred. These two meanings are kept distinct in the 
Free Software movement.

yes. I read many of them, but not all. Also I read some info at Tor, and why  
they don't recommend plug-ins, which makes sense. It might be a good idea to  
compare their prefs with yours. Considering how they set it up, I have to be  
sure if it's ok to add any changes to it. From what I read of yours, they  
look good, but I'll read them again soon. Then I'll be able to better decide  
what I wanna do.


There's something I need advice on. In Icecat, anything with goo in it, I  
made blank. I hope I got them all, there were other nasty names like yahoo, I  
think I made those blank too. I wanna do that in Tor. Someone might say doing  
that would uniquely identify me, but I will never knowingly allow them to  
track me. What's the best solution?


If I were a programmer, all those horrible companies would never be allowed.


Re: [Trisquel-users] Imageboards that play nice with libre JS

2016-10-29 Thread onpon4
The captcha does not require JavaScript. There is a version that uses  
JavaScript and a version that does not use JavaScript. The latter loads as  
long as your browser behaves like one that doesn't support JavaScript.  
LibreJS doesn't do this; instead it tends to both prevent scripts from  
running and prevent scriptless fallbacks from working, which is why the  
result is often broken.


I have not actually tried posting on 4chan, but I've seen that captcha system  
it uses elsewhere before (on those websites where Cloudflare has blocked  
access from a Tor node) and gotten past it just fine without enabling  
JavaScript.

I don't know what exactly is an imageboard, but perhaps using a service
provider that provides a GNU MediaGoblin service can be helpful.

2016-10-29 Thread Adonay Felipe Nogueira
As answered by many and also using the e-mail that tct just gave to the
list:

EOMA68 is a standard, not hardware itself. You are probably referring to
the Libre Tea Computer Card, which follows the standard. I once
contributed to redacting the publication on Parabola project's website
about Libre Tea Computer Card and also had hard time with people
confusing it with EOMA68. Please read the campaign text again and
slowly.

Also, taking tct's message as reference, you asked about software
pre-installed [probably] in the Libre Tea Computer Card (assumed since
you got the name wrong): If that's the case, only the Respects Your
Freedom certification can answer the question. Also tct replied in
regards to hardware designs, not software.

Re: [Trisquel-users] Libreboot Developer Leah Rowe Attack gnu and rms Again

2016-10-29 Thread Adonay Felipe Nogueira
Indeed, you are right when affirming that free/libre software existed
long before RMS, GNU and FSF... However, these key
people/projects/organizations were the first ones to actually document
the philosophy (before that, there were free/libre software, but they
didn't exactly prove persistence/"stubbornness" towards the goal that we
free/libre software activists seek nowadays, back then, it was a
situation like the one we have with most projects that are "open
source"-only, where while they might be free/libre, they might not have
strong driving force to keep them that way).

Also, the documentation provided in the GNU project's website does
support your point, see the history of the GNU project.

Hurd must be much smaller than Linux. And, I believe, so does BSD's kernel.  
You had better use Debian if you want to try such things.

100 GB for / looks far too much. You will probably end up using 10% of it  
(more if you install heavy video games). 1 GB for /boot is a lot too since a  
kernel requires about 50 MB and you do not need twenty different kernels  
(only the last one and another one that, for sure, drives well all your  
hardware). But, well, it only is 1 GB.

Don't use LibreJS. Just disable JavaScript. LibreJS more often than not

The actual question I was asked and the actual answer I gave:

Hi Ron,

For hardware to be "libre", the printed circuit board (PCB) design
should be under a free license. RMS shares my point regarding EOMA68.

And anyway, if and when the PCB design files will be available under a
free license, modification will require a nonfree CAD software, because
the EOMA68 board has been designed using nonfree CAD software.

Thanks for asking,
Tiberiu
