Last night I had 6-astra-max plan out and begin working on a port of the full source nix/guix bootstrap to raw Buck2 BUILD files and it apparently completed this morning! will be interesting to evaluate how it did here

Truth Nuke of unfathomable proportions right here
I think westerners tend to underestimate just how oppressive copyright is and how much worse it would be if it were possible to enforce globally. Enabling textbook and academic piracy is one of the more liberatory impacts of the internet. Money is too cheap for us to fully understand how vital it is

Let's solve all this nonsense the old-fashioned way. They should just give Grigori Perelman a gun and let him do as he pleases

Just remember that the best way to fight back against things you dislike is to make satirical posts and cultural references. It's more powerful and effective thank you think... and fairly Leftist too...

Also I like the confusion people have because HF is just "a file sharing site." That's a fine insult if you are running imgur/photobucket using google ads. But if you are actually charging money to people to store their data it's actually insanely profitable at scale with very fat margins.
