Anti proprietary software manifesto (part 1). A message for everyone, but above all for those who, despite being here, are using iOS or MacOS: MacOS and iOS are proprietary garbage, aimed at uneducated and ignorant people who don't know anything about computers, operating systems or IT. This garbage is based on secret code, which cannot be audited or syndicated. The Apple ecosystem works like a kind of walled garden, where users can't grow new plants, nurture and care for existing ones, use the tools they want or remove weeds, and from which they can't even get out, vegetating there like serfs of the soil, with their most basic rights, such as those concerning their security and privacy and the choice of software and platforms to use, or those relating to changing operating systems and the syndication, modification and distribution of source code, severely curtailed, or even eliminated. In this highly centralized and closed ecosystem, Apple plays the role of supposedly benevolent dictator, watching over everything, controlling everything and storing in its silos/cloud everything that the serfs of the land produce, including their personal data and that of the people with whom they interact... Now for the supreme irony: to my amazement, Nostr is full of people who, despite using closed, secret code, proprietary and totally centralized systems and infrastructures, come here to boast that they are now free and independent because they are using a decentralized, community-based and open source social network. Let's stop being hypocritical or naive: using a free social network is a drop of water in the ocean that leads to the harbor of freedom, independence, innovation, autonomy, collaboration and emancipation. We need to do much more than that: it is imperative to use free software exclusively, starting with operating systems... Using Nostr from iOS, MacOS or Windows is like using LibreOffice or GIMP on a proprietary operating system, like trading Bitcoins only to convert it all into fiat currency or like boasting about the conquered freedom when you've never got out of prison. #Computers #Software #Informatics #IT #Microsoft #Apple #Faggots #Windows #MacOS #iOS #Politics #Society #Imperialism #Feudalism #Corporations #Fraud #Corruption #Bribery #Freedom #FreeSoftware #Opensource #GnuLinux #Linux #LineageOS #Debian #Portugal #Brasil #EuropeanUnion #EU #Nostr #Nostriches #GrowNostr #Plebchain #Plebs #Pleb #Bitcoin #Lightning

Manifesto anti software proprietário (parte 1). Uma mensagem para todos mas, sobretudo, para os que, não obstante por aqui andarem, usam iOS ou MacOS: MacOS e iOS é lixo proprietário, destinado a pessoas incultas e ignorantes, que nada percebem de computadores, sistemas operativos ou informática. Esse lixo é feito com base em código secreto, não auditável nem sindicável. O ecossistema Apple funciona como uma espécie de jardim murado, onde os utilizadores não podem cultivar novas plantas, fazer crescer e tratar as que já existem, utilizar as ferramentas que entenderem ou eliminar ervas daninhas, e do qual não conseguem, sequer, sair, nele vegetando como autênticos servos da gleba, com os seus direitos mais básicos, como os relativos à sua segurança e privacidade e de escolha do software e plataformas a utilizar, ou os respeitantes à mudança de sistema operativo e à sindicância, modificação e distribuição do código fonte, gravemente coarctados, ou mesmo eliminados. Neste ecossistema, altamente centralizado e fechado, a Apple desempenha o papel de ditador pretensamente benevolente, tudo vigiando, tudo controlando e armazenando nos seus silos/nuvem tudo quanto os servos da gleba produzam, incluindo os seus dados pessoais e das pessoas com as quais interajam... Agora a suprema ironia: para minha estupefacção, o Nostr está pejado de gente que, não obstante estar a usar sistemas e infra-estruturas fechados, de código secreto, proprietários e totalmente centralizados, vem para aqui gabar-se de que, agora sim, é livre e independente, pois passou a usar uma rede social descentralizada, comunitária e de código aberto. Deixemos de ser hipócritas ou ingénuos: usar uma rede social livre é uma gota de água no oceano que conduz ao porto da liberdade, independência, inovação, autonomia, colaboração e emancipação. É preciso fazer-se muito mais que isso: usar, exclusivamente, software livre, a começar pelos sistemas operativos... Utilizar o Nostr a partir de iOS, MacOS ou Windows é como utilizar o LibreOffice ou o GIMP num sistema operativo proprietário, como transaccionar Bitcoin apenas para converter tudo em moeda fiduciária ou como vangloriar-se da liberdade conquistada quando nunca se saiu da prisão.

Crime! Volkswagen discriminates customers based on their origin and nationality! Following the “Dieselgate” case, Volkswagen agreed to compensate all customers affected by the manipulation of diesel engines in Germany, USA and Australia. In Germany alone, Volkswagen agreed to pay around 800 million euros to the 460,000 affected customers in that country. In the case of Portugal, Volkswagen refused to negotiate compensation for the 125,000 Portuguese customers affected by the manipulation of vehicle emissions systems! A case of clear discriminatory treatment of customers based on their origin and nationality, which is a serious crime! #Politics #Economy #Society #Ecology #Capitalism #Imperialism #Feudalism #Portugal #EuropeanUnion #EU #Corporations #Germany #Nazi #Discrimination #Volkswagen #Dieselgate #Fraud #Corruption #Bribery #Nostr #Nostriches #GrowNostr #Plebchain #Plebs #Pleb #Bitcoin #Lightning https://newsbeezer.com/portugaleng/volkswagen-refuses-to-compensate-portuguese-customers-with-diesel-cars/

The statement expressed in the meme below is completely stupid. In fact, if there's one thing that the present and past of capitalism has taught us, it's that the world is full of people who can't or have never managed to get themselves out of poverty, despite their hard work, savings efforts and albeit being subjected to massive doses of capitalism. After the terrible experiences that slavery, feudalism, communism, socialism, fascism and capitalism gave us, what the world desperately needs is the emergence of great creators of values and ideas, capable of designing or inventing a new and substantially better economic system. #Politics #Society #Economy #Philosophy #Slavery #Feudalism #Communism #Socialism #Fascism #Capitalism #Totalitarianism #Tyranny #Freedom #HumanRights #Ideology #Nostr #Nostriches #GrowNostr #Plebchain #Plebs #Pleb #Bitcoin #Crypto #Lightning #Argentina #Brasil #Portugal #UK #USA #EU

The truth about Muhammad You cannot love freedom, peace, culture, civilization, tolerance and the arts when you choose for a role model someone known as Muhammad, who was: - A false prophet, a madman who once said he had gone to Jerusalem on a winged horse; - A common caravan robber and a camel rapist; - A pedofhile who had sex with 9-years-old girls; - A misogynist who amused himself raping slaves and who considered women to be below the category of dogs and treated them as such; - A corpse defiler, having even had sex with the corpse of his foster mother; - A serial torturer, a looter, a cowardly murderer, a liar and a genocidaire; - Someone who wrote the Quran (a hymn to barbarism and imbecility) in order to satisfy his vicious and psychopathic appetites. #Humour #Freedom #FreedomOfSpeech #Islam #Muhammad #Gaza #Hamas #Palestine #Quran #ISIS #Refugees #Terrorism #Drawing #Cartoons #Politics #Society #Totalitarianism #Tyranny #Media #HumanRights #EuropeanUnion #EU #Portugal #Brasil #USA #Nostr #Nostriches #GrowNostr #Plebchain #Plebs #Pleb #Bitcoin #Lightning

Anti-woke Manifesto (part 1). Lana Bastašić's... Yet another completely stupid human being, thinking that companies should be political actors, that the arts should be at the service of ideological archetypes and that the natural way for a person to make their voice heard is to cancel out those who have different opinions to their own. Today's leftists have become the fascists they say they want to fight, they believe they are a morally superior class, they think they are above the plebs, they have a die-hard hatred of democracy and freedom and are completely incapable of dealing with their shortcomings, paranoia and frustrations. Ironically, these same leftists come and shout that they have been canceled, when, after canceling others, they suffer an action-reaction effect, ending up being canceled themselves... This is the ultimate hypocrisy, as well as proof that these scum think they are a superior class, made up of supposedly enlightened people. It's time to teach these leftist scum a beautiful Portuguese proverb: «Don't do to others what you don't want them to do to you.». Quite symptomatically, it is precisely to this scum of activist "artists" that the European Union has been awarding its cultural prizes... Bastašić recently won the "EU Prize for Literature"... The value of an artistic object is no longer a function of its intrinsic qualities, but depends exclusively on the degree of concordance between the political motivations behind the creation of the intellectual work and the social ideal that the social bloc in power wants to impose. #Politics #Society #Culture #Arts #Art #Literature #Media #EuropeanUnion #EU #Censorship #SingleThought #Woke #Leftists #Totalitarianism #Tyranny #Freedom #FreedomOfSpeech #HumanRights #Democracy #Portugal #Brasil #Serbia #Bosnia #USA #Nostr #Nostriches #GrowNostr #Plebchain #Plebs #Pleb #Bitcoin #Lightning

Manifesto anti-woke (parte 1) Lana Bastašić’s... Mais um ser humano completamente estúpido, achando que as empresas devem ser actores políticos, que as artes devem estar ao serviço de arquétipos ideológicos e que a forma natural de uma pessoa fazer ouvir a sua voz é cancelar a daqueles que têm opiniões diferentes das suas. Os esquerdistas de hoje tornaram-se os fascistas que dizem querer combater, acham-se uma classe moralmente superior, julgam pairar acima da plebe, nutrem um ódio de morte pela democracia e liberdade e são completamente incapazes de lidar com as suas insuficiências, paranóias e frustrações. Ironicamente, estes mesmos esquerdistas vêm gritar que foram cancelados, quando, após cancelarem os outros, sofrem um efeito de acção-reacção, acabando eles mesmos por ser cancelados... Trata-se da suprema hipocrisia, assim como a prova de que esta escória se acha uma classe superior, feita de pretensos iluminados. É hora de ensinar a esta escumalha esquerdista um belo provérbio português: «Não faças aos outros aquilo que não queres que te façam a ti.». Muito sintomaticamente, é precisamente a esta corja de "artistas" activistas que a União Europeia tem vindo a atribuir os seus prémios culturais... Bastašić ganhou recentemente o "Prémio EU para a Literatura"... O valor do objecto artístico deixou de ser função das suas qualidades intrínsicas, passando a depender, exclusivamente, do grau de concordância entre as motivações que norteraram a criação da obra intelectual e o ideal social que o bloco social no poder pretende impor. #Politics #Society #Culture #Arts #Art #Literature #Media #EuropeanUnion #EU #Censorship #SingleThought #Woke #Leftists #Totalitarianism #Tyranny #Freedom #FreedomOfSpeech #HumanRights #Democracy #Portugal #Brasil #Serbia #Bosnia #USA #Nostr #Nostriches #GrowNostr #Plebchain #Plebs #Pleb #Bitcoin #Lightning
