When Bill was born, his father was just busy counting dollar bills, so he named him Bill. Bill was mentally [retarded](retard.md) as a child and as such had to attend a private school. He never really understood programming but with a below average intelligence he had a good shot at succeeding in [business](capitalism.md). Thanks to his family connections he got to Harvard where he met [Steve Ballmer](steve_ballmer.md) -- later he dropped out of the school due to his low intelligence.

In 1975 he founded [Micro$oft](microsoft.md), a [malware](malware.md) company named after his dick. By a sequence of extremely lucky events combined with a few dick moves by Bill the company then became successful: when around the year 1980 [IBM](ibm.md) was creating the [IBM PC](ibm_pc.md), they came to Bill because they needed an [operating system](os.md). He lied to them that he had one and sold them a license even though at the time he didn't have any OS (lol). After that he went to a programmer named Tim Paterson and basically stole (bought for some penny) his OS named QDOS and gave it to IBM, while still keeping ownership of the OS (he only sold IBM a license to use it, not exclusive rights for it). He basically fucked everyone for money and got away with it, the [American](usa.md) way. For this he is admired by Americans.

Competition is to society what a drug is to an individual: competition makes a situation become better quickly and start achieving technological "progress" but for the price of things going downwards from then on, competition quickly degenerates and kills other values in society such as altruism and morality; society that decides to make unnaturally fast "progress" and base itself on competition is equivalent to someone deciding to take steroids to grow muscles quickly -- corporations that arise in technologically advanced society take over the world just like muscle cancer that grows from taking steroids. A little bit of competition can be helpful in small doses just as painkillers can on occasion help lower suffering of an individual, but one has to be extremely careful to not take too many of them... even smoking a joint from time to time can have a positive effect, however with [capitalism](capitalism.md) our society has become someone who has started to take heroin and only live for that drug alone, take as much of it as he can. Invention of bullshit jobs just to keep competition running, extreme growing hostility of people, [productivity cults](productivity_cult.md), overworking, wage slavery, extreme waste that's destroying our environment, all of these are signs our society is dying from overdose, living from day to day, trying to get a few bucks for the next dose of its drug.

# Copyleft
|

|

Copyleft (also share-alike) is a concept of sharing something on the condition that others will share it under the same terms; this is practically always used by a subset of [free (as in freedom) software](free_software.md) and [culture](free_culture.md) to legally ensure this software/art and its modifications will always remain free. This kind of [hacks](hack.md) [copyright](copyright.md) to de-facto remove copyright by its own power.

Copyleft has been by its mechanisms likened to a virus because once it is applied to certain software, it "infects" it and will force its conditions on any descendants of that software, i.e. it will spread itself (in this case the word virus does not bear a negative connotation, at least to some, they see it as a good virus).

For free/open-source software the alternative to copyleft is so called **permissive** licensing which (same as with copyleft) grants all the necessary freedom rights, but does NOT require modified versions to grant these rights as well. This allows free software being forked and developed into [proprietary](proprietary.md) software and is what copyleft proponents criticize.

In the great debate of copyleft vs permissive free licenses we, as technological anarchists, stand on the permissive side. Here are some reasons for why we reject copyleft:
|
||||
|
||||
- By adopting copyleft one is **embracing and supporting the copyright laws and perpetuating the [capitalist](capitalism.md) ways** ("marrying the lawyers") because copyleft relies on and uses copyright laws. Copyleft chooses to play along with the capitalist bullshit [intellectual property](intellectual_property.md) game and threatens to use force and bullying in order to enforce *correct* usage of information.
|
||||
- In a way it is **[bloat](bloat.md)**. Copyleft introduces **legal complexity**, [friction](friction.md) and takes programmers' [head space](head_space.md), especially when copyleft is probably mostly ineffective as **detecting its violation and actual legal enforcement is difficult, expensive and without a guaranteed positive outcome** ([FSF](fsf.md) encourages programmers to hand over their copyright to them so they can defend their programs which just confirms existence and relevance of this issue). Sure, corporations can probably "abuse" permissive (non-copyleft) software easier, but we argue that this is a problem whose roots lie in the broken basic principles of our society ([capitalism](capitalism.md)) and so the issue should be addressed by improving our socioeconomic system rather than by bullshit legal techniques that just imperfectly and many times completely ineffectively try to cure the symptoms.
|
||||
- **The scope of copyleft is highly debatable** (which is why we have different kind of copyleft such as *strong*, *weak*, *network* etc.). I.e. it can't be objectively said what exactly should classify as violation of copyleft AND increasing copyleft scope leads to copylefted software being practically unusable. You may say "so what", but in law clarity is extremely important, it may also discourage people because they don't really know what they sign up for, commercial use may also be discouraged by this for the same reason which may have a similar effect to a non-free license that downright disallows commercial use. Consider this **example**: [Linux](linux.md) is copylefted which means we can't create a proprietary version of Linux, nevertheless we can create a proprietary operating system of which Linux is part (e.g. [Android](android.md) in which its proprietary app store makes it de-facto owned by [Google](google.md)), and so Linux is effectively used as a part of proprietary software -- the copyleft is bypassed. One might try to increase the copyleft scope here by saying *"everything Linux ever touches has to be free software"* which would however render Linux unusable on practically any computer as most computers contain at least some small proprietary software and hardware. The restriction would be too great.
|
||||
- In practice, **copyleft licenses have to be complex and ugly** because they have to strictly describe the copyleft scope and include lots of legal [boilerplate](boilerplate.md) in order to make them well defendable in court (copyleft is really about preparing for a legal war) -- and as we know, complexity comes with bugs, vulnerabilities, it makes it incomprehensible to common people and imposes many additional burdens. Indeed, we see this in practice: the only practically used copyleft licenses are the various versions of GPL of which all are ugly and have historically shown many faults (which is again evident from e.g. looking at GPL v1 vs v2 vs v3). This introduces great license compatibility issues, headaches for programmers who should rather be spending time programming and other similar bullshit. Permissive licenses on the other hand are simple, clear and well understandable, they aren't as much preparing for a court battle as trying to give other hackers a peace of mind and make them free of legal worries.
|
||||
- **Copyleft prevents not only inclusion in proprietary software but also in permissive FREE software.** I.e. as a consequence of denying code to corporations collateral damage is done by also denying code to ethical free software that wishes to be distributed without copyleft conditions. Similarly to how proprietary software forces free software programmers to reinvent wheels by rewriting software as free, copyleft forces permissive free software programmers to reinvent wheels and rewrite copylefted code as permissive.
|
||||
- By adopting copyleft one is **embracing and supporting the copyright laws and perpetuating the [capitalist](capitalism.md) ways** ("marrying the lawyers") because copyleft relies on and uses copyright laws to function; to enforce copyleft (prevent "disallowed" use) one has to make a legal action (while with permissive license we simply basically give up the rights to make a legal action). Copyleft chooses to play along with the capitalist bullshit [intellectual property](intellectual_property.md) game and threatens to [fight](fight_culture.md) and use force and bullying in order to enforce *correct* usage of information.
|
||||
- In a way it is **[bloat](bloat.md)**. Copyleft introduces **legal complexity**, [friction](friction.md) and takes programmers' [head space](head_space.md) (every programmer has to study a bit of copyright law nowadays due to such BS), especially considering that copyleft is also probably largely ineffective as **detecting its violation and actual legal enforcement is difficult, expensive and without a guaranteed positive outcome** ([FSF](fsf.md) encourages programmers to hand over their copyright to them so they can defend their programs which just confirms existence and relevance of this issue). The effort spent on dealing with this is a wasted human time. Sure, corporations can probably "abuse" permissive (non-copyleft) software easier, but we argue that this is a problem whose roots lie in the broken basic principles of our society ([capitalism](capitalism.md)) and so the issue should be addressed by improving our socioeconomic system rather than by bullshit legal techniques that just imperfectly and many times completely ineffectively try to cure the symptoms while strengthening the system's mechanisms.

Another way of describing fractals is by iterative mathematical formulas that work with points in [space](space.md). One of the most famous fractals formed this way is the **[Mandelbrot set](mandelbrot.md)**. It is the set of [complex numbers](complex_number.md) *c* such that the series *z\_next = (z\_previous)^2 + c*, *z0 = 0* does not [diverge](divergence.md) to [infinity](infinity.md). Mendelbrot set can nicely be rendered by assigning each iteration's result a different color; this produces a nice colorful fractal. [Julia sets](julia_set.md) are very similar and there is infinitely many of them (each Julia set is formed like the Mandelbrot set but *c* is fixed for the specific set and *z0* is the tested point in the complex plain).

@ -39,6 +39,6 @@ This is a summary of some main guidelines on how an LRS supporter should behave
|
|||
- **Protest in non-violent ways** -- this doesn't mean you should be passive; you should be exposing the truth, propaganda, corruption, boycotting corporations and state, promoting your values and expressing disagreement with certain ideas, but do not aim for destruction of those who stand in opposition -- if you're attacked, it is best if you do not fight back; not only is this the morally ideal thing to do, it also sends a very powerful message and makes the aggressor himself think.
|
||||
- **Do NOT support [pseudoleft](pseudoleft.md) ([LGBT](lgbt.md), [feminism](feminism.md), [Antifa](antifa.md), [soyence](soyence.md) ...)**, don't become [type A fail](fail_ab.md). Of course you should equally reject [rightism](right.md), but that goes without saying.
|
||||
- **Do NOT engage in [political correctness](political_correctness.md)**. Remember that staying silent often means supporting status quo, so the more deceit you see in society, the more you should try to not stay silent and the more you should try to tell the truth.
|
||||
- **Free yourself from the system** -- similarly to how you free yourself technologically, free yourself also socially, live frugally and minimize your expenses. Stop consuming, stop living in luxury, stop spending money for shit (gyms, sports, clothes, car, streaming services, games, cigarettes, ...), use free things that people throw away and enjoy hobbies that are cheap (programming, reading books, going for walks, playing chess, ...). You need very little to live, you don't even need internet connection; with good computing you can hack offline and only connect to the internet once in a while on some public wifi to download emails and upload your programs. Make yourself self sufficient, prepare for the [collapse](collapase.md). If you can live somewhere in the woods and would enjoy it, go for it.

You won't find it easily, real truth is always censored and hidden (though often in plain sight), but you can train yourself to spot propaganda and see the red flags.

Question EVERYTHING (absolutely everything, even this). Do not fall into traps such as [pseudoskepticism](pseudoskepticism.md). Train your mind to think critically, avoid [shortcut thinking](shortcut_thinking.md), question your own biased beliefs and wishes.

Love is a deep feeling of affection towards someone or something, usually accompanied by a very strong emotion. There are many different kinds of love and love has always been one of the most important feelings which many living beings are capable of, it permeates human [art](art.md), culture and daily lives.

What is the opposite of love? Many say it is [hatred](hate.md), even though it may also very well be argued that it is rather indifference, i.e. just "not caring", because hate and love often come hand in hand and are sometimes actually very similar -- both hate and love arose strong emotion, even obsession, and can be present at the same time (so called love-hate relationship). Love sometimes quickly changes to hate and vice versa.

As mentioned, **love is not a single feeling**, there are many types of it, for example parental love, love of a life partner, platonic love, love for a friend, towards god, of pet animal, love of art, knowledge, life, nature, as well as selfish obsessive love, selfless love and many others. Some kinds of love may be so rare and complex that it's hard to describe them, for example it is possible to passionately love a complete stranger merely for his existence, without feeling a sexual desire towards him. One may love a [beautiful](beauty.md) mathematical formula and even people who hurt him. Love is a very complex thing.

The fact that they made people believe it is a disorder if your penis can't magically telepathically check a chick's ID and may get erect if she's been born before a date legally established in political region the penis currently resides in shows that at this point an average citizen is more retarded than a braindead chimp.

The pedophile witch hunt exists because it is a great political tool. It is an arbitrarily invented (well, maybe not invented but purposefully escalated) victimless crime. By the principles of [fear culture](fear_culture.md), it allows to push things such as hard surveillance and censorship, similarly to e.g. "war on terror". You're a government or a corporation and want to spy on people chatting? Just make a law requiring mandatory [spyware](spyware.md) in all chat and justify it by "pedophiles" (this is what [EU](eu.md) did). You're against the surveillance law? You must be a pedophile! The witch hunt also allows to immediately cancel anyone uncomfortable. There's a guy who the government doesn't like? Maybe a political competition. Simple, just plant some files on his computer, make up a little story and he's gone.

Defending pedophilia in itself is enough to be cancelled or perhaps even imprisoned, however it is the morally right thing to always say the truth -- especially that which is being censored. Therefore we mustn't remain silent about this issue.

# Smol Internet
|

|
||||
*TFW Internet became such shit people are running away from it.*
|
||||
|
||||
Smol Internet, smol web, small web, smol net, dork web, poor man's web, web revival and similar terms refer to Internet technology (such as [gopher](gopher.md), [gemini](gemini.md), plain [HTML](html.md) etc.) and communities that are smaller, [simpler](kiss.md), less controlled and less [toxic](toxic.md) than the "big mainstream Internet" (especially the [Web](www.md)) which due to [capitalism](capitalism.md) became littered with [shit](shit.md) like [ads](marketing.md), unbearable [bloat](bloat.md), censorhip, [spyware](spyware.md), corporate propaganda, masses of [retarded people](influencer.md), [bullshit](bullshit.md) cheap visuals like animations etc. Consider this analogy: the mainstream, i.e. [world wide web](www.md), [Discord](discord.md), [Facebook](facebook.md) etc., is like a big shiny city, but as the city grows and becomes too stressful, overcrowded, hasted, overcontrolled with police and ads on every corner, people start to move to the countryside where life is simpler and happier -- smol Internet is the countryside.
|
||||
|
||||
What EXACTLY constitutes a Smol Internet? Of course we don't really have exact definitions besides what people write on blogs, it also depends on the exact term we use, e.g. smol web may refer specifically to lightweight self-hosted websites while smol net will also include different protocols than [HTTP(s)](http.md) (i.e. things outside the Web). But we are usually talking about simpler ([KISS](kiss.md), [suckless](suckless.md), ...), alternative, [decentralized](decentralization.md), [self hosted](self_hosting.md) technology (protocols, servers, ...), and communities that strive to escape commercially spoiled spaces. These communities don't aim to grow to big sizes or compete with the mainstream Web, they do not seek to replace the Web or achieve the same things (popularity, profitability, ...) but rather bring back the quality the Web (and similar services such as [Usenet](usenet.md)) used to have in the early days such as relative freedom, unrestricted sharing, free speech, simplicity, decentralization, creative personal sites, comfiness, [fun](fun.md) and so on. It is for the people, not for companies and corporations. Smol Internet usually refers to [gopher](gopher.md) and [gemini](gemini.md), the alternative protocols to [HTTP](http.md), the basis of the Web. Smol Web on the other hand stands for simple, plain [HTML](html.md) web 1.0 static personal/community sites on the Web itself which are however hosted independently, often on one's own server (self hosted) -- such sites can be searched e.g. with the [wiby](wiby.md) search engine. It may also include small communities such as [pubnixes](pubnix.md) like [SDF](sdf.md) and [tildeverse](tildeverse.md). Other KISS communication technology such as [email](email.md) and [IRC](irc.md) may also fall under Smol Internet.

There is a tendency to think we somehow magically live in a time that's fundamentally different from other times in history in which it is now a pretty clear and uncontroversial fact that the name of science was abused hard by propaganda, almost everyone easily accepts that historically politically constructed lies were presented as confirmed by science, but somehow people refuse to believe it could be the case nowadays. In times of Nazism there was no doubt about race being a completely scientific term and that Jews were scientifically confirmed to be the inferior race -- nowadays in times when anti Nazis have won and politics is based on denying existence of race somehow scientists start to magically find evidence that no such thing as race has ever existed -- how convenient! And just in case you wanted to check if it's actually true, you'll be labeled a racist and you won't find job ever again.

# Tangram
|
||||
|
||||
Tangram is a simple, yet greatly amusing old puzzle [game](game.md) in which the player tries to compose a given shape (of which only silhouette is seen) out of given basic geometric shapes such as triangles and squares. It is a rearrangement puzzle. Many thousands of shapes can be created from just a few geometric shapes, some looking like animals, people and man made objects. This kind of puzzles have been known for a long time -- the oldest recorded tangram is Archimedes' box (square divided into 14 pieces), over 2000 years old. In general any such puzzle is called tangram, i.e. it is seen as a family of puzzle games, however tangram may also stand for **modern tangram**, a one with 7 polygons which comes from 18th century China and which then became very popular also in the west and even caused a so called "tangram craze" around the year 1818. Unless mentioned otherwise, we will talk about this modern version from now on.

*Divide square like this to get the 7 tangram pieces.*
|
||||
|

[LRS](lrs.md) considers tangram to be **one of the best games** as it is extremely [simple](kiss.md) to make and [learn](easy_to_learn_hard_to_master), it has practically no [dependencies](dependency.md) (computers, electricity, ... one probably doesn't even have to have the sense of sight), yet it offers countless hours of [fun](fun.md) and allows deep insight, there is [art](art.md) in coming up with new shapes, [math](math.md) in counting possibilities, good exercise in trying to [program](programming.md) the game etc.
|
||||
|
||||
Tangram usually comes as a box with the 7 pieces and a number of cards with shapes for the player to solve. Each card has on its back side a solution. Some shape are easy to solve, some are very difficult.

*Two tangram shapes: bunny and stork (from 1917 book Amusements in Mathematics).*
|
||||
|
||||
{ I found tangram to be a nice practice for **letting go of ideas** -- sometimes you've got an almost complete solution that looks just beautiful, it looks like THE only one that just has to be it, but you can't quite fir the last pieces. I learned that many times I just have to let go of it, destroy it and start over, usually there is a different, even more beautiful solution. This experience may carry over to practical life, e.g. [programming](programming.md). ~drummyfish }
|
||||
|
||||
**Can tangram shapes be [copyrighted](copyright.md)?** As always nothing is 100% clear in law, but it seems many tangram shapes are so simple to not pass the threshold of originality for copyright. Furthermore tangram is old and many shapes have been published centuries ago, making them public domain, i.e. if you find some old, [public domain](public_domain.md) book (e.g. the book *The Fashionable Chinese Puzzle*) with the shape you want to use, you're most definitely safe to use it. HOWEVER watch out, a collection of shapes, their ordering and/or shapes including combinations of colors etc. may be considered non-trivial enough to spawn copyright (just as collections of colors may be copyrightable despite individual colors not being copyrightable), so do NOT copy whole shape collections.
|
||||
|
||||
**Tangram [paradoxes](paradox.md)** are an [interesting](interesting.md) discovery of this game -- a paradox is a shape that looks like another shape with added or substracted piece(s), despite both being composed of the same pieces. Of course geometrically this isn't possible, the missing/extra area is always compensated somewhere, but to a human eye this may be hard to spot (see also [infinite chocolate](infinite_chocolate.md)). New players get confused when they encounter a paradox for the first time, they think they solved the problem but are missing a piece, or have an extra one, while in fact they just made a wrong shape. TODO: example
|
||||
|
||||
**Tips for solving**:
|
||||
|
||||
- Start by placing pieces you know for certain where they belong (small details that can only be made with the smallest pieces, pieces you deduce that HAVE to be somewhere etc.). This reduces the problem to making a smaller shape from fewer pieces, making it much easier to solve. But BEWARE: sometimes you wrongfully assume some piece in some place because the silhouette "suggests" it, do not fall to this trap.
|
||||
- At the beginning try to get a sense of scale, sometimes what in the silhouette looks like the big triangle may actually be the middle sized one etc.
|
||||
- Learn some common patterns, e.g. you can make a rectangle out of the two small triangles and parallelogram. This comes with just solving more puzzles.
|
||||
- If you have an "almost solution" and can't fit the last few pieces for some time, just destroy it and start over. There are many nicely looking blind paths.
|
||||
- If in your partial solution you can replace some subshape composed of smaller pieces with the same subshape composed of one larger piece, do it. Having smaller pieces is preferable because you have more flexibility.
|
||||
- Be careful to make the exact shape you see, sometimes it is possible to make a very similar looking shape that has just a tiny bit different proportions e.g. by rotating the parallelogram.
