[12:45:13] Gentoo Yes, GNU unifont unfortunately contains emoji glyphs and you can thank rms for that.

[12:45:59] Gentoo It doesn't contain coloured emoji's at least, so if you're seeing those, it's not unifont.

[12:48:43] Gentoo ComputerTech, Why do you use a spyware+malware browser by the way?

[12:49:18] Gentoo ComputerTech, There are other browsers than firefox.

[12:49:34] Gentoo Firefox out of the box is malware+spyware, but it's at least possible to fix.

[12:50:29] Gentoo ComputerTech, For your freedoms sake and for the good of humanity, you should cease surrendering your freedom to google.

[12:50:47] Gentoo Why not Replicant?

[22:35:05] Gentoo !bang

[22:35:29] Gentoo TheFatherMind, I have vowed to never run such useless proprietary malware on my servers.

[22:35:58] Gentoo Gentoo-libre GNU/Linux-libre, as Slackware is proprietary software.

[22:36:39] Gentoo Nice proprietary software.

[22:38:07] Gentoo You can likely use that card with Linux-libre provided you use the radeonsi driver, but that comes at the cost of minimal reclocking and no suspend.

[22:38:47] Gentoo TheFatherMind, Often in business it's easy to surrender your business to proprietary software companies, but that's an incredibly foolish thing to do.

[22:40:56] Gentoo So, what would happen to your business if unraid decided to revoke your "license" and remotely disable the OS via their proprietary backdoor

[22:45:10] Gentoo That's getting into delusions. I have no doubt that their proprietary license expressly allows them to do such, therefore you have no lawsuit.

[22:45:36] Gentoo Even if you manage to file a lawsuit and win, the most you'll get is costs plus the license fee.

[22:50:21] Gentoo By design the license doesn't expire, but who knows what proprietary backdoors they have set up?

[22:52:55] Gentoo It took this long to hit me, but the GNU/Linux OS was written to give users and businesses alike freedom, but businesses go out of their way to run inferior proprietary versions and even pay for such?

[22:53:58] Gentoo Knowing about the possibility of proprietary tricks is not paranoia?

[22:54:02] Gentoo Tell me, does it have updates?

[22:54:28] Gentoo I will never go out of my way to pay for an OS that takes my freedom.

[22:55:59] Gentoo So you got burned enough times in the past to mitigate most of the proprietary tricks, but you don't just avoid them completely?

[22:57:04] Gentoo TheFatherMind, You implied such by mentioning all the mitigations you employed.

[22:57:42] Gentoo The firewall and the manual update installations.

[22:59:45] Gentoo I find it easier to just fix any breakages after updates than bother with restoring backups myself.

[23:01:05] Gentoo !bang

[23:02:23] Gentoo Accusations huh?
