If copyright were abolished, all FOSS and Creative Commons licenses would be rendered null and void, since they depend on copyright law to work.
That’s certainly reassuring.
Can’t wait to experience the tech support call center scams in Dolby Atmos.
Out of the frying pan, into the fire.
Not yet, anyway.
The MPAA still has never been able to demonstrate that privacy even has actual impacts on movie and ticket sales…

Trisquel GNU/Linux is an Ubuntu fork that is famous for having no proprietary software whatsoever*. It’s the distro that Richard Stallman uses.
Trisquel uses a modified version of the Linux kernel that is completely devoid of binary blobs. However, as a side effect, some things like WiFi may not work, so you’ll have to buy an FSF-certified USB dongle, or use Ethernet.
*Of course, there’s nothing stopping you from installing closed-source software on Trisquel (but why would you want to do that?). And Debian by default ships with 100% FLOSS.
Ah, I remember Zorin. It was my first distro. I eventually moved on to Debian and Trisquel, though.
This is an excellent starting point for new converts, but if you want a more “Windows-esque” experience, I’d recommend Kubuntu or KDE Neon (Plasma is the most Windows-like DE in my opinion).
DisplayPort for life!
There’s a RemindMe bot on Lemmy?! Now I’ve gotta try this out.

My impression is that they both have a respect for each other, although they don’t necessarily like each other.
