frankly katherine the statement that you brought "free cupcakes" is misleading at best and malicious at worst. if i cannot readily access the recipe for your cupcakes then what you have is a plate of *gratis*, but not *libre*, cupcakes. would you call iOS "free software" because it comes with your phone? no, katherine. because you're better than that.
@lynnesbian
Actually what you've been calling "cupcakes" is more accurately "GNU plus cupcakes" or as I've been calling it "GNU/Cupcakes"
@lynnesbian how can I enjoy a cupcake that doesn't respect my freedom? am I being supplied with all the information and tools I need to audit and improve the recipe?
@lynnesbian literally snortlaughed imagining someone saying this
@Frinkeldoodle big mac zero day discovered
@Frinkeldoodle @lynnesbian this is a funny toot but did you know that it is also real https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open-source_cola
Me: *guzzling gallons of open source cola*
My nutritionist: "Uh, Frinkel, you really should drink something else..."
Me: *stops for a second* "Invent open source drinkable water, then we'll talk."
My nutritionist: "But... wha... I give up."

@lynnesbian get rekt katherine
"Hey everyone I brought libre cupcakes! Here's the recip..."
*everyone slams cupcakes into their mouths, then a few minutes later collapse and die*
"That's strange. I did list poison in the recipe *and* the cake has a big red warning underneath the frosting..."

@lynnesbian you post a lot of awesome toots but this one is especially excellent
@lynnesbian I mean I laughed, but I think this analogy puts me on the side of the heckler here, imagine refusing to tell someone if an ingredient they were allergic to was included in a cupcake (or other ingredient-related things like if they were vegan or not). Dick move, Katherine, dick move.
Now of course, the recipe itself would be great, but that's really just . . .
. . . the icing on the cupcake (I'm sorry)
@lynnesbian most excellent !
