It's not possible because pretty much all baseband processors (radios) run nonfree software.

The FSF defines freedom as the four freedoms. Copyleft is about preserving those four freedoms. Copyleft is still free software in terms of the four freedoms. Sure, you could take freedom as being able to do completely anything (or more thi

Exactly. However I see now that there's an Emacs workaround... maybe I'll try that some time.

There were no big flaws in Bayern's game that day. Arsenal sat deep specifically to shut down what muller and lewandowski could do, but I wouldn't call that exploiting. In fact Arsenal didn't really 'exploit' or tar

If by football philosophy you mean "the thing about Arsenal is...", skc got it right I think because 15 years ago he was definitely considered 'progressive' or 'modern'. But now I think he's considered &qu

What? Couching is not all scouting... no one's denying that Wenger is always on the look out for young prospects. But Wenger is a sort of 'old fashioned' coach. He prefers focusing on how his players can do better, rather

Sweet! I never bothered to check how to do it on the cli, and instead of being interactive, I just assumed you would have to reference the hunks by line number or something. Naive of me.

With magit, it's easy to only stage individual 'hunks' so that you can have only the relevant parts of a file staged. And so this problem goes away. I also imagine it's easy to do this in fugitive as well. It's prob

I'm not sure cabal can really be considered a package manager as the article here states [1]. Stack helps, but I think just using a dedicated package manager to manage haskell things is probably the way to go. Nix has a lot of haskel

Sorry for the late reply. I found it, I got the method from this blog post [1] initally. Also see [2]. However, I'm sad to say that when I tried this again rn, it didn't work anymore. (I know for a fact it used to work great becau

urxvt also supports viewing images (or at least I know that because that's the emulator I use, maybe other emulators also support it) Like I know ranger has an option for it, but iirc there's also a way to just run a command ala `

One of the dealbreakers for me with Kallithea at this point of time though is the lack of an issue tracker. I think their main reason for not having it was that they don't want to impose one when you could be using one already. But I w

Have you heard of kallithea [1]? Not sure if it be what you want though because it also supports mercurial (and uses it for its development). But iirc, it's written in python. [1]: https://bitbucket.org/conservancy&#x2F

Right, sorry. I still thought you were talking about git after the first line, at least that's how I read it. Misunderstanding, my bad.

git is not a GNU project.

Wow thanks for the taking the time for the comprehensive reply! :) Really, my comment turned into a half-rant, and I wasn't expecting such a response! Well honestly, if it does become "hackable" (i.e. ui, addons), then that

Thanks for the response. With browser.html, I think I meant functionally , like isn't it supposed to be marketed as a simple, out-of-box, no configuration browser for those who just want no hassle simple web browsing? (Because otherwi

This is obviously the main issue. The DRM component itself is nonfree, downloaded from Adobe's servers (iirc). With this DRM section in the official html specification, it is impossible to implement a fully html spec compliant, free so

Are there any plans to build a completely new browser from Servo? Is there even any worth in that? (A firefox-esque "normal" one, not like that experimental html browser thing.)
