jcgruenhage | am2on: I guess Allanitomwesh was being sarcastic | 15:19:05 |
am2on | Maybe, but I think there are people who actually believe that, so I was just sharing my thoughts about it | 15:52:05 |
am2on | Though i guess I'm preaching to the choir since this is the FOSS room after all :p | 15:52:30 |
art|code | The main disadvantage I can see to FOSS is it's very difficult to raise capital. | 19:04:07 |
art|code | My guess is this why so many inventors try to convert FOSS back to proprietary. | 19:09:30 |
art|code | That, or they're pure evil. Who knows? | 19:09:58 |
jcgruenhage | Pure evil, I am sure. | 19:11:59 |

timthelion | The main disadvantage I can see to capitalism is it's very difficult to maintain freedom. | 18:18:27 |
timthelion | Be it freedom in software, or more generally, individual freedom of determination. If you don't have capital, you're basically not allowed to do many things. Either by threat of violence, hunger, or debt which is enforced by violence. | 18:19:38 |

art|code | timthelion: that's very true | 02:19:42 |
art|code | Allanitomwesh: not difficult to raise capital or not the main disadvantage? | 02:24:13 |
