Interesting historical note, but things change.

3·1 hour agoThere will never be a Disco Elysium 2, or even a true “spiritual successor”.
That’s ok. We got a great game. That will have to be enough.
8·17 days agoListen, Intel is fucked. It’s fucked right now, and getting bought out by someone else isn’t magically going to unfuck it. Saving the company is going to take money and effort.
We can also just let it go up in flames. No skin off my back.
Let’s start with what we’re not doing. We’re not handing out money to private investors in the old “socializing losses privatizing profits” bullshit we’ve been doing since the nineties.
So, if there’s a compelling national security reason to keep the company alive, we, the state buy it. Then we, the state, run it. We run it in a way that benefits our interests as owners and customers.
Maybe a few years down the line we can find a way to sell it (or our share in it) in a way that satisfies our national security requirements and makes us a load of money. This is not unheard of, see the acquisition and subsequent sale of ABN AMRO by the kingdom of the Netherlands.
Maybe split it up, write off some parts, sell some others, keep others.
Or we strip maybe it’s IP, and license it out to contractors to get the shit we need.
We can do whatever. We own it.

Windows is just the micro kernel running the actual operating system: Firefox.
48·27 days agoThe only positive thing is that they are SUCH GREEDY FUCKS that companies often patch out the protection after release to stop paying them.
Which is widely overused.
Welkom in Nederland, moederneuker!
That’s why I said “even if”.
“Even if” it’s not really a bug and they are backtracking, then [rest of comment here].
Is there anything going on right now that would warrant people being critical of the state of Israel and its leaders? Anything at all?
Even if they are backtracking with egg on their face, this is good. Maybe better. Now they know they can’t get away with this stuff.
It sounds to me you are making excuses instead of confronting the obvious problems of Mastodon. It’s user-hostile to anyone who is not already a fucking nerd.
Just like Lemmy.
What are you talking about man?
This is the Musk community. Haven’t you heard?
That’s substantially more restrictive than “Apache but you can’t sell it through this specific channel”, and it wouldn’t help this particular problem.
It’s not that the knock off extensions don’t want to share their code (they probably do).
“Such views” as the generally accepted definition of “open source” that’s been around since 1998?
Or the definition of “free software” that’s been around since 1990?
Or is it the fact that you are ignorant and arrogant, a potent combination, and resent being called out on your shit?
Besides, the original definition is not reflective of real world needs - which is why it’s morphed to something else.
