In reply to Anonymous. Well DRM is inherently destructive and adversarial. I don't know what counterfactual you're imagining about FOSS. Destruction and adversarialness make sense against evil, I wouldn't and won't be a software mule for an evil civilization. On a planet of good people I'd just open source everything. I don't know shit about Stallman but I doubt it.

You seem to like to use analogies from FOSS to describe morality. Do you think good would reinvent Free Software had it not already been invented? Do you think Richard Stallman is good?

[…] and Evil So most of humanity is evil, but they have this DRM morality which limits them down into being purely neutral and useless corpses as opposed to terrifying […]

You mean “disassemble” (take apart) not “dissemble” (lie, esp about internal state), right? If so, it’s worth correcting, since “dissemble” is close to sandbox/false face.

I think the examples of Java and Minecraft are out of date now. But I’m not going to bother to verify this.

I think most parts of your tech boil down to, break down ideologies/ways of thinking/models of the world before learning them (no DRM), and “do what you really want”. The rest of improving willpower is in learning how to do this in practice (what does it actually feel like to do this? What are the steps on a smaller scale? It’s a novel feeling to most).

Most of the rest of your posts are model-building about how people work, mixed up with various aesthetics you have.

In reply to Ziz. I can't tell whether my original decision to write the way I did before this was a good one. It made a lot of evil people like my blog and want to talk to me. Which I guess is better than (most) neutral people (who are collectively about as bad, but in a way that can't be talked to because it's semi-conscious). But I've gotten kind of sick of them.
