Snap and AI in one post. Is this ragebait?

On some days I wish back the ASM times. 3 chars that’s enough for a variable name. All those modern 4 char names … Pah … /S

That also is illegal in Europe. They must answer those questions. That is Our right ad a European citizen. They can not sanction you for this.

Every European which user should now use its GDPR rights and ask them what data they have of us and what they do with it.

ThinkPad and Dell have a bunch of Linux compatible notebooks.

If you are in a European country not being locked into apples ecosystem would be a major argument for me.

Security Research, software developer, strange hardware configurations.

And of course Software I need is not including their deps

That was an example. And as someone who works in sec, I know the benefits of a package manager.

“I only need to trust brave”.

I don’t get it, static linking, curl to bash pipes and userepace install and everybody thinks that is fine. But as someone who needs to write a security concept for Linux in the office so I can finally use it at work, no that is not ok. That is shit.

Rust on desktop is also a nightmare for example.

No I do not hate arch, I hate concepts and mindsets creeping into the Linux world

Anywhere else, I just need the package from the brave project or their repo. I trust the brave project, I do not trust the AUR for reasons.

True, I also have a choice to use a distro that delivers the software I need in the main repo.

And then, where get I 70% of my packages I need? For example a useful browser like brave? Yeah …

Maybe, just maybe, and nearly unmoderated repository where everybody can create packages, is not so secure after all? /s

And AUR is the reason I keep arch miles away from any of my systems.

Gentoo. Use Gentoo and keep your sanity

It’s HDR. It’s both.

Thanks, than I am misinformed

Welcome to the dark side. Where we can take screenshots from an HDR output without washed out colors (I was told, windows can’t do this o0)

I agree regarding consesus. Unlikely, but: heaving major contributions greenlighted and only replace parts of the code are fat note feasible.

No communication happened to my understanding at any point with any contributor.

And that’s fine. And everybody should license his code as he likes.

But my point stands. String copyleft is important.

That does not mean that LGPL is always a good idea, and charted is a good example, as the python stdlib is MIT licensed, and therefore an LGPL charted has no chance of getting accepted.

Btw, the easiest first step would have been: mail every contributor (there are not that many in that case) that provided more then hast some minor fixes and ask for permission. That is a valid way to change the license.

I did contribute once. And it was a pain. 20 lines of code but hours of work, Mailinglists, feedback, …

Don’t het me wrong , it was fun. But would I have done the same for BSD, so that apple could use this? Hell no

Did you contribute to the kernel? Because, I for sure have a problem with it. And I did contribute.
