It's interesting to see some of the back-and-forth on this topic between different proponents of free software.

I listened to this talk by Linus Torvalds a while back and it relates to the GPL license used by the Linux kernel and why the kernel hasn't changed to GPLv3. Apparently Linus doesn't find this practice by Tivo and other hardware manufacturers to be an issue.

the difference between me and a liberal is im more then happy to take direct action. I’ll do whatever it takes to fight fascism [...] with the ballet box

in left wing circles most leftists only pretended not to vote

Not sure if you can have it both ways. How do you take "direct action at the ballot box" while also only pretending to withold your vote?

You don't have to thank me.

Pickles. They were too strong and sour for me. Now I love 'em.

I've started baking bread this year and it's been fun.

The "hardest" part is deciding to make the dough at night before I go to bed so it can ferment overnight. But the next day, all I need to do is throw it in the oven for 45 minutes and bam, fresh bread.

I'm struggling to get the crust right, though. It tends to come out very chewy rather than crispy

That's so neat; I'd never noticed that before. And the walls closing in on the stage adaptation is really clever

"12 Angry Men" (1957) is a personal favorite that I recommend to pretty much everyone. Great messages about questioning assumptions, challenging biases, understanding the limitations of evidence, acknowledging imperfections in the justice system, and the consequences thereof.

The movie is also cinematically interesting to me because it feels "small". The entire movie just about takes place in one room, and the events of the film transpire over the course of one afternoon.

If you hadn't specified "and other footware", I would've found myself in "Eric and The Dread Gazebo" territory.
