Libreboot Leaves The GNU, The Free Software Foundation Denounced

GNU is bigoted sexist offensive straight white males. Switch to Windows for the good of the LGBT community.

Time to fork boys.

Still nothing that can prove that the person was fired for being trans, it's just another "trannies are untouchable" episode.

You guys realize trannys are generally hideous creatures, and not at all like the women with penises photoshopped on that you see on 4chan, right?

Richard Stallman is radically leftist though and even defends the rights of pedophiles. This sounds like BS.

I'm on the mailing list, and I was very annoyed by this. I don't care about any of this, I just want the software, and I want it to be free. I don't have to agree with what every person in the Free Software community believes in or does.

Also this:
>>56648359

Another histrionic "transwoman" stirs up embarrassing drama that will leave them wondering why no one wants to be associated with them, and they will come to the conclusion that it's purely because they're "trans" and not because they're a mess of cluster b personality disorders that no one can functionally work with because of their retarded sad brains

Point out in the post you first replied to where they asked for your opinion.

was on #librespeech and #fsf on irc yesterday and some of the libreboot people are sad about what has happened and the fsf boys are saying that this leah mole is now admitting that its not a gender issue as the reason behing the sacking. Anyways i kept referring to the scissor sister as a "trander" and they kept telling me to stop making up labels that dont exist.

>>56655388

isn't the FSF pretty much a lawyer organization anyway? despite stallman's distaste for lawyers?

>Leah Rowe announced this evening that she's taking the Libreboot project away from being under the GNU umbrella. In rather harsh terms Leah wrote, "I'm declaring here and now to the whole world that Libreboot is no longer part of the GNU project.

Heh, that's funny because GNU is the only reason Libreboot exists and remains relevant.

It almost seems as if these SJW episodes are a systematic destabilization of free software. Notice how all free software projects relevant to privacy and freedom get these episodes.

I hope GNU forks Libreboot and everyone sane moves on and leaves the garbage behind

Pulling this SJW drama bullshit is unacceptable as it distracts everyone from the key goals at hand which are supporting freedom and privacy

I have worked with libreboot and never cared about anyone in the project on a personal level. Everyone I ever communicated with was way more professionally polite than I would have expected. The FSF has the same approach. As a collective it hates anything that is not related to code or user freedom

Fragmenting the community due to an isolated incident is UNFUCKINGACCEPTABLE

Free software already has enough technical and legal problems on its plate. Now they have to mop up empty SJW accusations as well?

Sharp?

>>56656722
if the people who ought to be fighting to preserve freedom argue for then petty concern (seriously, why bring gender to software, which is an orthogonal concern), then yeah, I am in a place to be opressed by non-free software

Like it or not out lives will depend more and more on software, we *need* the right to audit such software if we are gonna have trust is does what is intended. Using you gender as a weapon and the collective force behind it to silent critisism is juvenile and demetrial to sane community development.

E pluribus unum. We ought to play fair with other and recognize when certain issues don't matter, gender in this case.

I'm not familiar with Libreboot, is it just a free version of BIOS?
Why don't more people here use it?

>>56656696
I agree. This also points out one of the biggest strengths of free software: you don't have to agree with the person writing or distributing the code. In the end, each user owns the code that they run, and they can do whatever they want with it. I do think that it would be nice if Leah came to her senses, but if not I hope the project can still survive.

>>56650763
>I don't have to agree with what every person in the Free Software community believes in or does.

Whats the worst is if you tell them to shut up about politics, you're suddenly labeled as a bigot. A bigot for simple wanting to keep your fucking hobby about your damn hobby and not politics.

>>56656971
The newest CPUs it supports are Core 2 Duos. Newer CPUs require proprietary firmware to function, and they will intentionally shut themselves off if that firmware is not present. This allows malicious backdoors like Intel ME.

I run Libreboot on my laptop, a Lenovo x200(>>56650763), because that does everything I need a laptop to do. For my desktop I use a proprietary BIOS, because I need a better CPU. I still try to use free software wherever possible on my desktop though.

>>56656326
Probably not. Libreboot only joined the GNU project a few months ago, and they existed for three years just fine before that. I think the only way the FSF supported Linreboot financially was with the RYF certification on Libreboot laptops (which are priced higher than other comparable hardware, to pay for the flashing of libreboot and to support its development).

Is Libreboot even that widely used? I thought it was just a minor fork of Coreboot.

This is at least the 5th thread on the topic today.

To others who have mentioned that this kind of thing seems to happen to most projects that provide a technically viable road to privacy (ie someone is accused of being a rapist, harasser, had CP on their HDD, victimizes PROTECTED_CLASS etc.... think Wikileaks, Snowden (attempted, failed), Glen Greenwald, Applebaum / TOR , many TOR sites to list, TrueCrypt, ProtonMail (forget the employee's name, failed attempt) ) it starts to look pretty grim. It goes even further when you look into how many antiwar / anti-corporate / anti-corruption organizations and individuals find themselves accused of something that is socially despised. Even the FSF itself - people have tried to say "Linux / FreeSoftware = Pedophile Communism" because of one of Stallman's opinions.

Getting annoying...

>>56657622
we have become exceedingly good at it.

>>56657337
>we don't have to worry about the project falling apart because an owner/leader wants to go their way
We sort of do. If she's the only one who knows how to develop libreboot, it would be hard for a fork to be successful without rebasing from the new releases once in a while.

That said, that's exactly what libreboot itself does.

Libreboot is a fork of Coreboot with no binary blobs.

If you don't understand what those words mean, or the importance of it, just leave now.

>>56660208
Other then not knowing what the hell coreboot does i do understand what os coreboot what os its function? Of you want me to care you have to put dome effort in

Why would it need protection? It's free software, a million idiots making a million dumb forks won't harm a single line in your version.

>>56660327
>3) We (the contributors) are not consulted about any of the views expressed on the libreboot.org website when they are hastily published by Leah

Unprofessional drama seeking bullshit there is not an office place on the planet that would put up with this sort of thing the fact she has not been fired as well is almost amazing someone needs to fork libreboot and do it now

>>56660357
its not about people forking the kernel.
its about the idiots that want to contribute to THE kernel with shitty code that has an agenda behind it.
linus torvalds oversees commits personally and has not only prevented backdoors from being pushed in but also people with other agendas from contributing.

From what I understand, Linus has done a pretty good job of putting together a circle of non-idiots around the Kernel. And if that fails, we'd likely a number of forks show up, rather than one version left under the control of idiots.

>>56653854

Well, there's no way to know for certain exactly what happened, but Libreboot's statement seems reasonable enough: transphobic bully bullies transwoman, transwoman tells bully to fuck off or something, transwoman gets fired for causing a fuss. RMS's statement doesn't exactly refute this; he says she wasn't fired because of her gender, technically true if she was fired for causing a fuss, even if the fuss was ultimately because of her transgender status.

Except there's no evidence of any of that. We don't even have the word of the alleged victim supporting Leah's claims. And even if someone HAD been fired from the FSF for being trans (which, to be frank, would surprise me greatly), it's difficult to see how someone entirely uninvolved throwing a tantrum in an irrelevant mailing list is going to help anyone.

>RMS's statement doesn't exactly refute this; he says she wasn't fired because of her gender, technically true if she was fired for causing a fuss, even if the fuss was ultimately because of her transgender status.
RMS didn't say anything about a fuss.

>>56660613
Except she hasn't been attacked. Leah brought this up, by calling for a bunch of people to resign.

>>56660613
She wasn't, this the usual BS

>>56660629
>Except there's no evidence of any of that.
Kinda what I'm saying. I'm just pointing out that Libreboot's statement sounds plausible enough.
>And even if someone HAD been fired from the FSF for being trans (which, to be frank, would surprise me greatly)
No, not directly for being trans, anyway. But it is still a bit trans hostile.
>it's difficult to see how someone entirely uninvolved throwing a tantrum in an irrelevant mailing list is going to help anyone.
Well no, it doesn't really help much.

>RMS didn't say anything about a fuss.
I know; he makes a very specific statement that doesn't actually address the issue mentioned in the Libreboot statement, which is that she was fired for being a troublemaker because she stood up for herself after being bullied.

>Except she hasn't been attacked. Leah brought this up, by calling for a bunch of people to resign.
I'm talking about the bullied transwoman, not Leah.

>>56660682
As I said before, we don't know for certain what actually happened. But it's hard to imagine Libreboot making something up for an excuse to leave GNU, when they could just leave GNU whenever they wanted anyway.

>>56660734
Leah dosent even know what happened and she s off attacking everyone.

>>56660734

Hang on, we know nothing about what happened, or even IF anything happened. "Nothing" isn't trans hostile, it's just nothing.

>I'm just pointing out that Libreboot's statement sounds plausible enough.
If Leah was re-enforcing something the victim themself had claimed then I might consider it. But we don't have that, we just have Leah's claims. If we don't even have a victim, then there's not a lot to discuss about the "crime".

>Well no, it doesn't really help much.
Doesn't that kinda shoot down the "sounds plausible enough" thing? If Leah's embarking on this in a way that will make plenty of splash but achieve little, then unless there's something major we don't know about (possible, but unlikely) that calls either her judgement or her motives into question.

>>56660762
>Since when do you call guys with penises "she"?
Since alleged workplace discrimination and the FSF was more important than arguments about someone's dick.

>>56660734
>But it is still a bit trans hostile.
In what way? Being transgender doesn't mean you are immune from criticism or facing the consequences of your actions. Double standards though are trans hostile as they enforce a separate but equal mindset.

>fired for being a troublemaker because she stood up for herself after being bullied.
While it is growing more and more unlikely that this is what happened, even if it was true that still is not an issue. In a workplace if someone is harassing you, you notify your supervisor and get away from the harasser like an adult. It is never acceptable in any workplace to lash out back at someone, or go on an emotional tirade.

No, what you're saying is that you don't understand the concept of innocent until proven guilty. Instead you go by the concept of accusations being true if they're vaguely plausible enough. You are part of the cancer destroying western society.

That's the beauty of open source. Just fork that shit. The sjw cunt can't stop you from using her source because she released it under the GPL.

feminism has nothing to do with it, respectability politics is only approved by conformist cucks such as yourself

>>56660606
>While he has made a rule of the current issue to not be in #LibreBoot

it's always been a rule that off-topic (i.e., non technical) discussion should be in #librespeech and enforcement of rules in any channel has always been at the discretion of whatever op happens to pay attention (and it just so happens leah has always been ban happy but who the fuck cares)

>>56660613
>Still, it is a bit unjust to be fired for fighting back after being attacked.

it's unjust but it will always be the case that retaliating to bullying rather than playing nice and accepting it like a bitch or going through official channels like HR (which may even result in social stigma from your peers that weren't bullying you because of 'respectability politics' being enforced by cucks like >>56660545) will result in disciplinary action because perceived bullying is always difficult to prove without witnesses (often he said she said scenarios) whereas retaliating, especially if the issue of bullying has been raised before, is clearly defined as a disciplinable action because the person should know better than to retaliate

it sucks but it's human nature

I genuinely feel sorry for the person fired because by all accounts she didn't deserve any of the drama surrounding the situation, see: https://twitter.com/ladyaeva/status/777201297133109250

People who non-ironically are against integrating with society shouldn't be surprised that no one wants to interact with them or hire them. Double standards and identity politics are poison. Yes people may be different, but that doesn't mean they don't have to follow the same rules as everybody else.

can't believe some people still haven't learned by now.

Never trust trannies with anything of consequence.

You forgot to mention that only one s775 mobo is on the list, which doesnt support more than 2GBs of RAM, because someone was too busy sjwing to make the second slot work. Faggot.

Also 775 era thinkpads support 8 GB of RAM, and server AMD motherboards support more.

>>56661215
Nobody can do anything with "relevant hardware" for as long as users are not allowed to flash non-OEM microcode into that hardware. The x60 works because we're able to do exactly that.

>>56661788

>>56661795
I checked on thinkpads as well. Half a year ago the best thinkpad libreboot supported would have to be used in downgraded screen resolution.

>>56661809
Nobody can prove that these intentionally placed backdoors exist. It's trivial to prove if they do exist given the ubiquity of Intel IME devices and the number of people with the aptitude to catch them in the act. It's been years now and I haven't seen any report of a real backdoor access from Intel.

If you ever want to get out of your bubble of special snowflake: the hateful comments towards you aren't written by people because you are trans, they're a reaction to your decision to support trans people like you as opposed to looking at the situation and having an objectively justified opinion.

It's a decision of supporting anyone within a sub group over individual justice and that's ethically disgusting.

Show me the network traffic that proves that Intel themselves or Intel as an emissary has in fact implemented backdoors into the device. This is the proof that I want to see and it's trivial to get it if it truly exists. People say that it exists but it's nothing but rumor an speculation until there is hard proof from a credible eyewitness.

>People who non-ironically are against integrating with society

respectability politics in this context has nothing to do with integrating into society, it has to do with integrating into cliques and whether that clique is at the top of the totem pole or not is irrelevant as there's always going to be several mutually exclusive cliques that naturally have their own ideas of what the respectability politics of the day should be

a prime example of this is would be the case of protestants and catholics who *HAPPILY* put aside their differences and united under the single banner of 'christians' to squabble against the jewish and islamic religions rather than amongst themselves

or how about a relevant tech example, were you for or against the outrage and subsequent stepping down of firefox ceo brendan eichthat supported prop 8? because if you thought it was unjust I have bad news for you, it's respectability politics that resulted in the outrage surrounding brendan eichthat

so it seems we're at an impasse here with you seemingly supporting respectability politics as the golden standard of which society keeps down the undesirables like feminists and sjws, and on the other hand we have feminists and sjws using respectability politics to out, police the thought of, and publicly shame, a ceo who supported and funded an anti-lgbt bill

or maybe, just maybe, believing that someone should follow a particular brand of respectability politics just because it's status quo (read: your clique) is fucking retarded and delusional

the person being fired has so far had absolutely nothing to do with the drama, it's leah and the libreboot being against the politics of the FSF for perceived slights against the lgbt and minority communities, whether real or exaggerated (especially considering the fsf is extremely inclusive), and people being against leah's politics because she's a trans person

the whole fucking argument is respectability politics versus respectability politics and is retarded beyond belief and only made doubly so by the person who brought up respectability politics like it's a GOOD thing

>They're programmed by attaching them to a computer and running some crappy tool, with bonus points for drag-and-drop logic.

they're typically programmed using ladder-logic diagrams, and represented in state-flow diagrams. ladder-logic isn't "programming", but these devices are made by engineers for engineers, maintained by engineers, designed to be run with a 10-20 year lifespan in rain, sleet, sand, or snow. software released by the hardware providers may be "crappy tool"(s), but they run everything important in your country.

This. Cryptographically sealed blobs killed the project (because you can't just reverse engineer the chip, you have to subvert encryption)

So here we are. There are no desktop grade cpus being manufactured today that will ever be on boards supported by libreboot, and those that might become that (Power8, RISC-V, Openrisc) are already trying to be as open as possible.

Whatever.

Let's make it clear the person fired is not the problem, Leah is. The person fired just wants to get on with their life and does adapt fine into society. No one should have an issue with them.

>people being against Leah's politics because she's a trans person
I think you missed the point entirely. People aren't against Leah's politics because she is transgender, but because her ideas are batshit. In Leah's worldview anyone who inconveniences a trans person for any reason is a bigot who hates transgendered people. Leah wants trans people to be held to a different standard, and to be outside of the rules. If a cloud rained on a trans person it wouldn't be precipitation, the cloud would be transphobic. Furthermore holding a political belief isn't akin to flying off the handle and jeopardizing your groups working relationship with another group based on a rumor, especially without consulting the other people in your group.
