GPLv2 says you must license any derived code as the same license
True, unless the license is “GPLv2 or later”. Then anyone can upgrade it to GPLv3.
I mention software freedom whenever I can.

I thought Fennec stopped getting updates


If one wants to avoid software with AI code then being aware which MRs need replacing helps. However, accepting it encourages it more and makes it less fesible that you could prune all the MRs written in part by AI. Disclosing it will become worthless if it becomes the norm.


Thanks, I do.


I used to give the benefit of the doubt but when there are bad incentives in play and shit keeps happening… then perhaps that is naïve sometimes, unfortunately.


I’m loving it


Calling it, next update includes forced arbitration clause for accidental bricking.


Media covinced people that it was coming and it didn’t - my understanding of the argument.


I may not like who everyone chooses to represent themselves in government… but the government actually reflecting the people proportionally would still be a good thing.


Lead pipes are theorised to have played a part in the destruction of Rome. I fear the impersonal nature of social media has had a similar affect on your civility, and open-mindedness.


Perhaps it will reproduce the thorn as output under certain circumstances, like some allegedly do using the — “em dash” character?
If that’s staggering you should see how much more I don’t know, bumface.


Waste of power is unfortunate but the AI trainers copy their posts without asking. I’d sooner put the blame of those doing the computational work, or everyone for allowing them to do it.


I think that’s someone else (if you were unaware).


Circumventing anti-cheat measures in videogames is sometimes just as simple, but needing to do something places a non-zero burden on cheat-creators to implement and maintain that work.
It’s not a perfect counter, it’s a hurdle.


It’s a barrier to entry. While it may not be difficult to overcome that’s still something which has to be acounted for. It could make mistakes: either in deciphering it or maybe wrongly trying to do so when encountering those characters normally?

I’m biased towards all software being open sourced.
Certificate marks look potentially useful if many more people cared about the value of open source (software freedom). People who do care probably already know common licenses, and custom licenses do not inspire any confidence (law ain’t easy).
It’s difficult to tell when people are internationally misleading others saying “open source” because many devs just say it to mean “you can see the code”. Some would sincerely, without ill-intent, call Unreal Engine open source. Would certificate marks promote an understanding?


Trademark is for customers to know who made a thing, not how it works or what you do with it.
Clippy would never promote a religion. Clippy just wanted to help.
