Ethically you can make as many digital or physical personal copies as you want for yourself outside of perhaps a concern for wasting resources but if you sell them you’re taking away earnings from an author or rights holder or owner which may each have different moral weight and require recognition of property rights as a thing worth having. But if you’re caught with hundreds or thousands of copies or copies where they are easily accessible to the public it’s going to appear pretty suspicious.

It’s more of a prime suggestion

Hamburger earth or hotdog earth?

Bifold wallet with radio blocking for card scanners, keys with a little purple Swiss army pocket knife and bottle opener from Texas, Nexus 5 phone no case, oversized coin to fidget with that has a couple stoic phrases ‘memento mori’ and ‘amor fati’ but thinking about it I guess they should be written in Greek instead of Latin since that’s the written language they would have used, occasional guitar picks left in pockets, microfiber cloth for glasses. In the winter I usually also keep chapstick, tissues, pens, mints, etc in my coat.

And some song lyrics from the first music number:

The last man nearly ruined this place,

He didn’t know what to do with it

If you think this country’s bad enough now,

Just wait till I get through with it. /

The country’s taxes must be fixed,

And I know what to do with it.

If you think you’re paying too much now,

Just wait till I get through with it. /

I will not stand for anything

That’s crooked or unfair.

I’m strictly on the up and up,

So everyone beware. /

If anyone’s caught taking graft

And I don’t get my share,

We stand ‘em up against the wall…

And pop goes the weasel!

The ones I’ve seen in the wild are pvcs and ccc/harvest, but there are others. I think they usually try to brand it as part of a larger end-to-end SDLC tool or change management, or it’s built to work with a specific proprietary system like Autodesk vault.

And Firefox, git, Dia, gimp, etc…

Proprietary OS’s like Windows and macOS lack package managers too that tools like chocolatey and homebrew provide.

Capitalist propaganda has had decades to hone and refine their techniques for manipulation and deception, the only way to win is to not play their rigged game, but if you’re forced to because they’ve captured all of the resources under a government backed judiciary that’s purpose is to centralize wealth and power under a minority ownership class i think you’d be justified to take more drastic measures to subvert or remove their propaganda.

B61? why not 4B61?

It would add some clarity if the post included a justification for censorship to avoid speculation

I’m a lumberjack in Antarctica when I’m not moonlighting as a future historian.

And here I thought it was about looking for strangers in the Alps

It’s solar powered so I just wait for night time to clear it then do the next problem in the morning

Reminds me of a line from Community: “You’re more like a fun vampire, instead of sucking blood you just suck.”

We should be exploring both options, exploration can often lead to unexpected discoveries and technological advancement.

Fascist big brother is always watching, loyalty is the only principle they value.
