Basically, it allows you to steal all the code and use it in your closed-source programs, giving a green light for corporations to use open-source code without giving anything back.

GPL doesn’t allow that, forcing you to open-source anything that was produced using other GPL-licensed code. That’s, for example, why so much of Linux software is open-source - it commonly relies on various dependencies that are GPL-licensed, so there is no other legal option other than sharing the code as well.

Thanks for challenging me up on that with evidence.

Sad to know this does happen.

Interesting. From my observations (I’m male, so take this with a grain of salt), women and girls are generally given positive attention - which might be unwarranted in its own right, but I rarely see hostility to this group of gamers.

There is even a phenomenon of male gamers, especially among teens, to represent themselves as female to either just get more positive response in players or to actively abuse this for gaining social perks.

I’ve tried it and I absolutely do not trust it.

And them covering left and right is part of it, yes. It works with made up American definitions of left and right, in which centrists to moderate rights are put on the left. As a result, international coverage is normally represented as left-biased, while really, Ground News and a broader American political landscape is right-biased. This is not a fair coverage and it and it doesn’t allow you to break through the propaganda.

Overall, concept is good, but if you follow this and think you are well-balanced and informed, you are not.

I’ll save everyone the trouble. If you want unbiased news, Ground News is not for you.

The most hilarious part is that Ground News tries to present itself as “unbiased” by covering news from “left” and “right”, but it does so from a US perspective, so almost all international sources are considered “left”.

They are not left, it’s you who is right, lol.

Which, BTW, highlights the broader issue of American politics, which is that people were honestly made to believe moderate right is the center, or even left. It is not.

At the end of the day, it doesn’t matter whose fault it is.

Xenia is about as old as Tux, and was proposed as a Linux mascot back in the 90’s

She’s actually been parr of quite a few memes on here, so, now you’re in it too :)

Because normally it is about “living happy ever after”

We may not really know what to do afterwards.

Ah, I have mistaken it for genuine statement. I have well intentions, too :)

It won’t evaporate, there are plenty of IT folks among youth.

It doesn’t make sense to characterize users by age brackets - it’s not that millenials are predominantly well-versed.

About 0,5L per day, yes

I like milk

It also goes into some of the food

It adds to the creamy taste

Debian and Arch are both the most important community-driven distributions for the entirety of Linux ecosystem.

However, I feel like they are both reasonably funded already, and supported by big names.

In my opinion, it is important to support the smaller distributions that many people overlook.

True :)

Probably the highest amount of derivatives, even if two-thirds are through Ubuntu lol

That’s its old name, sometimes still circulating out of habit. Currently, it is officially called Raspberry Pi OS.

Let’s gooooo

Debian (+Devuan), Ubuntu (+Kubuntu, Lubuntu), Linux Mint, Zorin, KDE Neon, Kali, Parrot, Tails, Raspberry Pi OS

Fedora, RHEL, Nobara, Bazzite, Qubes

OpenSUSE

Arch (+Artix), Manjaro, Garuda, Endeavour, CachyOS, KDE Linux

Slackware

Gentoo, Funtoo

Arch came somewhat later but is now an established independent distro serving as a base for many many others (Endeavour, Garuda, Manjaro, BlackArch, CachyOS, KDE Linux <not to confuse with Neon> off the top of my head)

That’s very simple. Public companies have investors the directors respond to. If the company won’t brag about profits, it will lose investments, reducing its competitiveness and starting a death spiral. If it will pay bigger salaries, it will lose money and won’t be able to brag about profits.

Our current economy is double crazy in that companies don’t just have to make stable profits to stay afloat, but to ever increase those profits at the expense of everything - including workers.

The entire system is insane.

Exactly!

Literally everything we ever came up with is comprehensible by humans, and is likely to be comprehensible by a layman given enough time and making sure prerequisites are filled.

In fact, it takes a good explanation that would click with a given person’s experience and level of expertise to make anyone understand anything.

It’s just that sometimes people need that specific thing X, and normally it’s needed to those who have some knowledge in another specific thing Y, and it gets expected that a person needing X knows Y (which is not necessarily true)

This is especially common in the world of computers. Everyone uses them, everyone has to troubleshoot them, but not everyone is the system administrator, to which 85% of the guides often seem to be addressed.
