I agree FREE software is even more important in this day and age and I'm all in 100% using and promoting FREE/GNU software and trying to convert people.

> Maybe I'm wrong, but I am to the point of disagreeing that all software is beneficial if it is Free Software, because some Free Software is being created to further the efforts of the proprietary enslavement of the general users. For instance, Chromium and Chrome Chromium is not free software, so we should dispense with that idea. There are several projects to try to strip out all the non-free licensed parts, but it appears to be a Herculean task, as Google has made a nasty tangled licensing mess of that code.

Hi, Upgrade is done well! A fresh Trisquel 8 install is done. Thanks for the help. Kind regards, Pieter
Re: [Trisquel-users] Azure and WSL version of Trisquel
The whole point of Trisquel is to be a 100% libre Debian. Running it in WSL defeats the point. Though I would find it amusing if ReactOS implemented a WSL (or would it be an RSL in this case?) Having a libre NT isn't a bad idea, I suppose you could in theory run 100% libre code on ReactOS. If there were FOSS x4500 drivers for windows server 2003, it could work, but it's not mature in it's development enough for production use.

Re: [Trisquel-users] Best browser? Also chess
I like pale moon, but there's a drama with MPL trademarks. It's really good though, It's like Firefox ESR in another direction. For browsing without Javascript, I'd recommend you use Netsurf. It's only 50MB when you launch it. I don't know much about Chess, but for an XMPP Client called "Gajim", you can install a tic-tac-toe plugin. Somebody I was chatting with had really bad internet upstream issues in mumble where he could hear us, but he would drop too many packets and somebody in mumble said he was playing tic-tac-toe in gajim. Then I thought that could be really good for people with really bad shiternet, imagine if there was a plugin for texas hold up, yu-gi-oh or chess.
