That’s what I mean by “if it were possible”

Genuine question. Would you all be fine if instead they required that printers add some sort of invisible tracking data? Similar to how 2d printers do.

I know that would be difficult to do with this tech but if it were possible.

50% seems very low. They created these companies by scraping and pirating information.

50% means that they just need to fool a few people to get what they want. Imo it should be more like 90% public with a requirement that all services must be provided for free.

Systemd’s change is inconsequential. If you really care then you should also fight to remove full name and address from user db.

Also there are still other jurisdictions that have these sorts of laws.

They are talking about how steamos might still be included. Due to the proprietary portions. I’d assume android would fall under that as well.

Read the article. The amendment says nothing about Linux. It talks about open source where the user has a license to modify and redistribute. So unless Google makes android fully open source they will still be included.

Yes, I know AOSP is open source. But they are also talking about how steam os wouldn’t be exempt despite it being arch based. Due to the proprietary portions.

That’s the thing. Linux isn’t special. It is open source oses and applications where you have license to modify and redistribute.

Probably because the law makers realized how hard this would be to enforce for open source.

This would also mean that applications that are just source available would not get this exemption since the user is not typically allowed to redistribute.

It would still affect Apple, Microsoft, and Google.

Seconded. Great combat, puzzles, exploration, boss fights, and story. What else could you possibly want.

If you haven’t yet, check out alabaster dawn the devs’ new game. In early access now.

Highly recommend crosscode. It is a snes era style rpg. It has great puzzles, boss fights, combat, exploration, and story. What more could you ask for.

You play as Lea who is brought into the world of crosscode, a fictional mmo where the avatars that people play as are physically present. Lea has amnesia and plays the mmo to try and recover her memory.

The devs just recently released their new game, alabaster dawn, into early access. I would say it is more GameCube era style.

The California law does not require verification. Only attestation.

I am agnostic and even I still don’t agree with what you say here. Religion was likely used initially to form communities around. Heaven and hell are just ways to motivate people to participate in the moral code of the community.

There are likely some people that truly believe in God but I think many people probably just believe that religion gives them a common community to work towards.

Now, in recent times, I have no doubt that there are those in religion that use it for exploitation. But that is no reason to write an entire group off as bad. We would likely call that bigotry were we on the receiving end.

Ooohh. Language preference per library would be so nice. Not having to fuck with languages on anime would be so convenient.

There is no way in hell I would vote for Newsom. I will vote literally anyone else (not that my vote matters much since I am in Cali).

This exactly. My company has a disclaimer everytime you log into a system to tell you as much. “there is not expectation of privacy”.

We don’t have the same level of keylogging and webcams access that they are talking about here. But I think most people would be surprised at the amount that we can see.

Yea. I have tried a few. But they either don’t work for me. Or the come down at the end of the day leaves me unable to do anything.

I don’t think I would even trust an open source version that I fully control. Either it would be a pain in the ass to maintain it or it would eventually have some major vuln discovered and lead to people being hacked. Too risky.

I yearn to go back to the days when a 2 minute lapse in focus/interest didn’t subconsciously send me reaching for my phone.

Can’t wait for adverts for the ass blaster 9000® to be beamed directly into my frontal lobe without my consent.

Someone please correct me if I am wrong. The article does not say where this is happening.

AFAIK these might be illegal in the US but only by technicality since we have laws against flashing lights. Especially ones that could be mistaken for police lights. (yes I know they are box trucks not police cars. But while you are driving and just see the lights in your mirrors you might mistake it for police).
