If you’re feeling more or less equally enslaved by the feudalistic monopoly of Microsoft and the forced labor camps of Richard Stalin Stallman, then you should consider joining the newly launched Software Liberation Front. Founded by Ren (aka apotheon) and Ogre (identity unknown), their mission is to enable free software to be truly free. Forced freedom is not freedom.

I signed up as an associate.

Thanks, apotheon. It actually slipped off my fingers as “Stalin” unintentionally (communism on my mind), and it made me laugh so hard I had to keep it (sort of).
