Nobody has any reason to trust the United States no matter who is in charge, correct.
All things are possible through Christ!

So in other words, I’m thinking of Linux
I live in Pennsylvania. I will not be voting for Joe Biden.
As opposed to news from the united states, which is certified good and true and democratic
On bad operating systems like Linux, yes. ;)
Completing the ethnic cleansing of the region is a long-standing goal and it isn’t yet complete.
Anyone else get free Ubuntu CDs shipped to their house? I think I had 7.10 (Gusty Gibbon) shipped to my house back in 2007.
Otherwise, Mandrake Linux was my first “good” distro. I first tried one called Lycoris which claimed to be an beginner’s distro with it’s own DE, and it was impressive how well it handled setting up a dual boot installation and at the time it was a revelation that I could use a computer without Windows. I didn’t begin preferring linux until I tried Mandrake with KDE 3, though.
It’s not as if they are holding themselves up as supporting Free Software philosophies (as opposed to Open Source), so where’s the pretense?
If somehow it ever makes strategic sense for them to stop making use of the open source model, yeah, they’ll stop. That doesn’t mean they were pretending.
Yeah, I have the special edition that will include all of the DLC (It was a promotional gift from AMD) and you would have to pay me to play any of it.
More of this game is not something I’m interested in!
I don’t think they’re pretending. Open source software is a valuable resource for basically all major tech companies, and a lot of it is driven by major tech companies. Some kind of combination of open source and proprietary software will always be a thing for them. This isn’t some major contradiction, they use either model based on the specific needs of the project.
This is why some think “Open Source” is too permissive since they see it as free/cheap labor to be exploited by huge corporations.
I’m not sure that I see it that way, but I can see their point.

I honestly don’t get the outage over that. I feel like I’m in the minority on that, though. I don’t care if linguistic statics are gathered from my public comments. Knock yourself out.
This story is about “private” messages on a free hosted service, and I think their users are just being naive if they think this is beyond the pale. But I get the feeling of violation at least a little.
Framework laptops are undeniably expensive. I say that as a happy owner of both the 13 and the 16. The value is not the appeal. To be honest, I don’t even expect it to “pay for itself due to upgradability and repairability” like many people say.
More availability of refurbished mainboards should help over time, I guess.
I have never contributed to an open source project before, so if we exclude the third part this is the reverse of my habits. The stuff I do for work is bare minimum garbage, I freely admit. I really do not like my employer.
As long as there are people who want to make games there will be indy game development going on.
People always say this, but the execs and board members making obscene money for doing as little a possible is the whole point of the endeavor.
I’m a good enough software engineer that this isn’t true. I bet I get paid a lot more than you. 😎
(The above statement is not a truthful statement.)
“Instead of working on that project that you were enjoying working on in your spare time, why not do this completely different other thing?”
That’s not reasonable.
Exactly, you never intended to commission an artist because you think so-called “AI art” is good enough to replace them.
Weird argument to make on a piracy sub, honestly. The existence of an AI generated image does not imply that a somewhere an artist lost a commission. Nobody was replaced. It’s not a choice between AI art and commissioned art, it’s a choice between AI generated images and nothing at all because that was the point of his project.
Whether we find it tasteful or interesting is another topic.
You’ve lost me on this one. No idea what you mean. But either way, I think you should take my comment just a bit less seriously.
