He's only been to my school once and it was before I even got here.
The only recording is audio only and so poor quality you literally can't make out a single word.

>>52528679
I wish he could go to my University too, but the last time he went to Brazil... well...

Ask him about his opinion on the cloud.
Where everything is run on free software, yet still enslaves the users.

Or on phones.
Devices that has to use server(s) to do complicated tasks in order to save battery so you can stay connected with people.

Ask him about hardware.
Stuff like fpgas, where the owner can change the function of the device but cannot do it with free software because of patents and IP.
>>
>>52528706
I recognize this one, that he once said it in english end everybody was spannish or something

>>52528724
Like? "Din mamma luktar fisk" means I like you?

>>52528784
He hates the cloud, using another computer with propetary/unknown verifiable software

>Devices that has to use server(s)
Sounds like google services, heavy work on their side, which is bought with onces privacy

>>52528799
Well he will say use open hardware
Fpgas tho, depends on the hardware lockdown and hidden internet sendings - But ovet that fpga are custom cpu code so probably fine
>>
ask him if his clothes are proprietary
>>
ask him about the racist nazi government decision to close down the border for all the drowing women and children.
>>
Interrupt him about half way through his speech and ask him to start speaking in your native tongue, because you don't understand what he's saying.

Make sure you tell him it's no big deal, because the first half probably wasn't very important anyway.

Thanks!

I use the word "cloud" because it is the word a lot of people use when describing a server that does not depend on a physical hardware.

I would like to hear his thoughts on how to solve the issue. Moglen has spoken a lot about the freedombox and his view is that we must make it more convenient to use free software so people who values convenience over freedom can have both.
>>

>server that does not depend on a physical hardware.
What the fuck does this mean
>>
>>52529413
something that can be virtualized, moved around.
Anything that isn't a home server really.

I attended to one of his speeches when he came to Spain, boring as fuck if you ask me, the same old jokes as always from what I had seen on youtube, but in Spanish. Don't expect too much of it, drop by the first minutes and leave, that's what I should have done.
>>
Ask him what he thinks about FRA and how you can fight the evil Swedish government
>>
Ask why it should be GNU/Linux and not KDE/Qt/X11/GNU/Linux
>>
Why are you a statist if you love freedom? You can't love that which hates freedom. It's like loving Microsoft.
>>
He doesn't install his own operating systems.

Ask him if his opinions on AMD has changed now that they're making all their future technologies free (although not under the GPL), and if he thinks it might only be a matter of time before they also will make their GPU firmware open-source, considering they're now throwing more manpower behind AMDGPU and Mesa

Stage a protest against a privileged white male being given a public forum over a transwoman of colour.
>>
>>52529982
Most of their stuff is under the MIT license, yes.
Just wondering if he would still advise people against buying anything AMD because they disrespect your freedom. Compared to many other vendors, they're far more friendly.
Hell, there's even been talk about Zen may support Coreboot

The professor showed slides talking about the importance of free software using MicroSoft® Office® PowerPoint™ 2010© on a Windows™ 7© computer.

Their answer to gameworks will also be released under the MIT license.
Yeah, when I'm upgrading to 14/16nm, I'll definitely go Polaris as well. So what if Pascal ends up performing better, supporting a company who values your freedom and develops technology which benefits everybody, is worth supporting
