“We drove the movie industry out of Hollywood. Let’s not do the same with car culture,” Leno said in a Facebook video supporting the bill.

actually, let’s kill car culture completely

Thought something this stupid was just for shits and giggles. Then I saw this is LinkedIn and he’s a senior product manager.

Haha the joke is on the rest of us

And permissively licensed utils have been around thanks to BSD and it’s never been an issue.

The distinction is that BSD coreutils are not attempting to be a drop-in 1:1 compatible replacement of GNU coreutils. The Rust coreutils has already accomplished this with its inclusion into Ubuntu 26.04.

If I wanted a permissively licensed system, I’d use BSD. I don’t, so I primarily use Linux. I think citing a proprietary OS like macOS as a reason why permissively licensed coreutils are OK is kind of funny. It’s easy to forget that before before the GPL there were many incompatible UNIX systems developed by different companies, and IMO the GPL has kept MIT and BSD-licensed projects “Honest”, so-to-speak. Without the GPL to keep things in check, we’d be back to how things were in the 80s.

So what’s next on the docket for Ubuntu? A permissively licensed libc?

Not interested in an MIT-licensed coreutils. Thanks, but no thanks!

My media server, which is just my server generally, is an old thinkpad I have from 2014. For media I use Jellyfin and I ensure the content is already in a format that will not require transcoding on any device I care to serve to (typically mp4 1080p hevc + aac).

If you look at the used computer market, there are endless options to attain what you are asking for. My only real advice is make sure the computer doesn’t draw much power and, if possible, doesn’t emit much or any fan noise. A laptop is a decent choice because the battery kind of serves as an uninterruptible power supply. I just cap my charge limit at 80% since I never unplug it.

The original PR someone made for the caches… two years ago 😅

It’s not like they have a vested interest in the continuity of these western institutions. When you apply a maximum pressure sanctions campaign against Iran, guess what!? Their economy is not tied up in your economy. They could give a fuck. Especially after you bombed them first (twice!). Especially after you unilaterally withdraw from a treaty with them.

The same White House that tells you a new casus belli for the war special operation each time you ask them? With a projected timeline that shifts day after day? Led by a pedophile rapist who has instructed his DOJ to cover up any of his involvement with Epstein? Who we already know from the fact that he was president for FOUR YEARS that he is a serial liar?

There is not a single thing that this White House can say that will make me think they are telling the truth.

Interesting writing. But my concern is that social responsibility will be dumped by the cost factor as he said. Anything that is GPL is under threat by an AI-based reimplementation. The cost of doing that seems artificially low now (investment hype phase, not ROI phase of these businesses), so it’s not really the idea anyone could do it that concerns me. The concerning part is no matter the price, bigger companies can take the hit and now direct their resources to undo the GPL everywhere and simultaneously replace labor in doing it.

While I agree overall it looks nice, I hate gaps and rounded corners. I’m sick of wasted space. And I’m sick of rounded corners.

I swear some people would use NetScape GUI if they could.

Now that would actually be nice!!

So they’re from the “America is the land of milk and honey, where there is endless opportunity, and dreams can come true” generation of migrants.

My own family is the same, but the illusion has been shattered for them over the last several years.

Not to my knowledge or intention.

It’s not quite the “fell for it again” award. It’s the “duped because I’m ignorant about history” award. Even if you are against Khamenei and the cleric class of leaders, the Americans are not, and never will be, your friends.

Someone with a backbone and conscience. If more European leaders understood this they could form some sort of cohesive, idk, Union. And use that “bloc” as a power base to negotiate from. So that they don’t all have to bend over and submit to the will of the United States every time we tell them to jump and bark.

Iran has a right to defend itself.

Three of them! Incredible!

The scary part is how they succeed in their objectives. I’m still not over Maduro’s kidnapping and how they pulled it off. It’s freakish.

VSCodium has never promoted itself as anything more than a compilation of VSCode’s base with telemetry disabled and proprietary components, naturally, not included. It has never promised anything else than that. Of course the changes are “dutifully incorporated” into Codium. It’s not a point of that project to be different. Your first remark made it seem like Microsoft has somehow infiltrated the VSCodium project and changed what it does.

What do you mean about VSCodium? Obviously it’s just a differently compiled version of Microsoft’s text editor, but what does Microsoft have to do with it, otherwise?

If it’s in line with international law they should be defending Iranians against the illegal aggression of the USA. Though obviously that’s not kid starver’s meaning
