Discussing Dyne:Bolic and Freedom with Denis Jaromil Rojo (Packt Publishing)

[Posted February 13, 2007 by ris]

Mayank Sharma talks with Denis "Jaromil" Rojo. "Denis "Jaromil" Rojo (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaromil) is an artist and a FOSS hacker. He's popularly known for Dyne:Bolic (http://www.dynebolic.org/), a Live CD distribution that contains several applications for audio and video manipulation. As a programmer, he is author of several free software that present new possibilities for online radios. As an artist he is known for his netart performances (http://lab.dyne.org/JaromilTalks) and for crafting the most elegant and efficient 13-character forkbomb ever written (http://www.digitalcraft.org/?artikel_id=292)."

I checked out the dynebolic site, then went from there to on-disk.com with the intention of buying the CD. It requires either Paypal, which I won't do, or that you create an account. Why? I can walk into any brick-and-mortar store and purchase merchandise without creating "an account". Flashing my credit card is sufficient for those merchants; it should be sufficient for online merchants.

My rant is done now. Thank you.
