Rockbox *might* being said being a political project. But until the developers do so it simply isn't. > To deny the power you have does not remove responsability from your > life. if you want to see your life bad and brutal -- try so and you will see it this way. If you want to see some word being aggressive and racism -- do so and it will be this for you. If you want to hear one word in a different context than it is in -- you will hear it this way. This is psychology. Words don't mean anything besides the meaning you put into them. Responsibility also means tolerance. I have also things that pisses me off just because it's history and I'm not affected with it -- but people keep confronting me with that stuff. I have better things to do than to comply all time and piss people off. If you're that offended by *one* word go ahead and build your own version of Rockbox. It's open source, you can do so. Maintain a "non-offensive"-patch. Maintain your "cleaned" build. Or stick to the original firmware of your player and abandon Rockbox. Whatever. Nobody forces you to use Rockbox or even like it. > > Politics shouldn't interfere with Rockbox. Ever. Not in this case, not > > in other cases. Period. I agree absolutely with this. Stop with your silly arguing. This won't change anyone's mind but only piss people off. -D. _______________________________________________ http://cool.haxx.se/mailman/listinfo/rockbox Received on 2005-09-08 Page template was last modified "Tue Sep 7 00:00:02 2021" The Rockbox Crew -- Privacy Policy |
