If you want to take your personal computing into your own hands, a good idea
is to set up your own email server. And then maybe let your friends and
family that have less technical experience also use it.
I'm of the opinion that restricting the four freedoms is inherently
unethical, so all works should be libre, and I make a point of putting a
libre culture license (either CC BY-SA or CC0 for works that aren't programs)
on all of my works. However, I don't think boycotting non-libre cultural
Hi,
I love the idea, we must however note that, if the game engines are free
software, free games can be made from then. See Freedoom for example, if
the PrBoom game engine wasn't free software
(http://directory.fsf.org/wiki/PrBoom), Freedoom wouldn't be considered
a free software Doom IWAD
good idea pizzaman! If only your pizza was half as good as this list you
made.. arr

i did try this with no success..
i also tried the tor firefox plugin(with icecat)
and this installed but failed to bypass anything
maby you just cant use tor with a proxy?
Does this rely includes all the design files? including the ones from the

Jei: sure! But many don't have the knowledge or just don't want to take the
trouble of setting their own server. But I agree that it is the best possible
solution.

at the school i go to many websites

any website with the word game in it(such as this one)
and weirdly my website(no idea why..?)
many others..

If you can SSH into the server from your home network, then the school
network probably blocks outgoing traffic on port 22. Try running SSH on port
80 or (more hopeful) 443 if you can. If you already have a web server using
those ports, you can use another server as a tunnel if you have one.
I agree too, is nice to have media that respects the four freedoms. But the
issue that I see here is the position of that wiki page on what's good and
bad, and the position of Trisquel. As far a I know we follow GNU FSDG not
DSFG from Debian, so what DSFG has to say doesn't really apply

To qualify as a Free Culture work (which seems to be the standard is being

I did not read carefully the thread you linked because it seems worthless,

That's the opposite of what I said. Read again. I think it's pointless to
boycott non-libre works, and even destructive. Personally, The Ur-Quan
Masters and King's Quest VI (both of which are non-libre culture) are some of
my favorite games, and I don't hesitate to recommend them. I'm also a
To qualify as a Free Culture it has to be in the public domain or basically
in the public domain (like CC0). If that's the intention of the wiki page

Trisquel has a policy against proprietary art (game data), thus this policy
should be enforced in the Trisquel wiki.

thanks for the reply i will try changing the port to 80

The art can be copyrighted since it is art and not software. If the game
engine is open, then there shouldn't be a problem since the FSF is more
concerned with keeping software open.
Hello guys,
