@Nyarlathotep @anytimesoon I mean, I do the same thing people have done for a century, I listen to the radio.
#FamilyMan been married for >15 years and have two daughters. Those three girls are my greatest love on this planet.
I consider myself a #GNU Evangelist. Learning about what #FreeSoftware was, including GNU/Linux, opened my eyes to so many things: governments aren’t the only ones stealing individual rights, I know so much less about computers than I thought I did, the idea of code, I can make a difference without having to know anyone particular.
I’m employed as contract Engineer in the Metal industry. My workplace is not yet unionized, but I’m hoping to fix that. #Union member of the #IWW IU440. I don’t have an engineering degree. After discovering Free Software I took my political scientist butt and found a call center job that paid for me to go to Community College to study Software Engineering, where I learned that I liked the idea of coding a lot more than I liked coding. The blessings of God put some great opportunities in my lap at just the right time.
I’m a #Libertarian and have been for over 20 years. The love of libertarianism is what lead me to first to a BS in #political science and later to falling in love with Free Software. These days I lean toward the left side of the libertarian spectrum including being a member of the Libertarian #Socialist Caucus of the Libertarian Party (LSC-LP). Sometimes I call myself a #LibSoc.
I’m a huge #sports fan, but don’t following any particular sport/team super closely. Lately I’ve been getting into #Cricket in addition to my other passions of Professional #Wrestling, Lower Division North American #Soccer, NHL & College #hockey, #baseball #olympics & #rugby (union and #RugbyLeauge). My whole life used to be American #Football, but now-a-days I can’t stand it anymore than I can basketball.
I’m a #BornAgain #Christian, accepting #Jesus as my savior at age 9. Received #Believers Baptism at age 18. Received the baptism of the #HolySpirit as evident in speaking in #tougnes later that year. The #Spirit lead me to the #Catholic #Church at age 20 where I was confirmed at the Easter Vigil. I am a grateful believer in Jesus Christ in #recovery from lust. #XA #SA #CR Currently in the very early stages of discernment for joining the #Ecumenical order of #Fransicans (#OEF).

@piccolo well sure, but “Communism with Chinese characteristics” is a line that the CCP has used to control the working class in mainland China for decades.
@anytimesoon Why do you want some computer recommending music for you? Wouldn’t you rather your friends and shit? #FunkWhale
@goatsarah @Coskii @True is there a particular case about the muppets I am unaware of?
@JackGreenEarth @fossilesque it likely is not free as in freedom, but non-free, as in free beer.
@humble_pete_digger @Nito Odysee isn’t owned by Google. It is one of a number of block-chained based de-centralized video sharing platforms utilizing the LBRY network.
@deegeese @TheDarksteel94 you understand it was a Chinese site first, right, and that Americans decided to use it? The Chinese government owns 50% of every company in China, that’s “Communism with Chinese characteristics”
@ByteOnBikes 100% of people die, so 100% of people who toke die.
The YouTube kids app is so incredibly useless in order to comply with government regulations that all our kids use our accounts. Which also sucks.
@abbadon420 @Flatworm7591 but pirates are anti-facist too.
@Jean_le_Flambeur @Flatworm7591 maybe you should have voted for them.
@ArugulaZ oh that was my profile pic until earlier today. Did you mean Mr. Data rather than Mr. Putin?
@FlashMobOfOne I agree with you on a personal level. If others want to volunteer to do such I think they have a right to, even if I would recommend against them personally exercising such a right.
@awwwyissss @FlashMobOfOne if a cause is just it should be able to be taken care of voluntarily.
Nobody hates Star Trek as much as Star Trek fans.
@jonsnothere @Dyskolos yeah, I just saw this when I searched for it aussieexotics.com/2009/08/05/b…
@P4ulin_Kbana I’m a good parent. The kids are with us all the time, if they were doing something they weren’t supposed to I’d know. Honestly, I tink I’d rather they be doing something nuferious than watching annoying kids videos, alas they prefer to watch the later too often watching other kids play scream and play with toys that we already bought that they never play with.
