that URL leads directly to what looks like the contents of a .git directory (so, all the metainformation but no project directory listing)

I'm curious because I buy this comment more than their mission statement, although I absolutely agree with their stance on the "longevity/maintainability problem" in software and hardware.

but as soon as I saw the ranting about colonialism I was like "oh... basically, anarchist anti-capitalists"

as soon as they have kids, they will quickly abandon their non-acquisition of resources stance, LOL

collapseos isn't a 100r thing, and i haven't seen anything from virgil that sounds like an anarchist anti-capitalist. i have a lot of sympathies for the anarchist anti-capitalist point of view although personally i've suffered a lot more harm from anti-capitalism than from capitalism


I have sympathies for it too. But I am also not at all surprised by your "harmed more by anti-caps than caps" statement.

The funny thing about having a kid (he's 3) is that you are forced to re-evaluate all your values and preconceived notions to see what it is you really want to transmit to your kid.


well, i live in argentina, see, so i've had the opportunity to live under an anti-capitalist government. if you've only lived in a society where capitalists have all the power then it would be unsurprising if the powerless anti-capitalists haven't harmed you


somehow i missed that you said 'not at all surprised', oops


ha, yeah.
