Re: rant. Yeah, normally none of that goes to the authors of the paper. So you’re not really taking anything away from them.

Theft because they copied your comment.

Two things are at play here:

1. Out of all the recommendations and ads, you only notice those who are actually relevant, so you’re biased.

2. One would be surprised by how easy it is to predict interests and patterns based on very little information; there’s no need to spy all private conversations for that.

Was this accidentally posted on Lemmy from Mastodon because the community was tagged?

I really like the concept but I never managed to convince anyone in real life to use it with me. lmao

Edit: I’ve just realized this post is from 7 months ago; why did someone bump this now?

Maybe I’m wrong, but I had understood that the content on your instance would also not be pushed to them, after defederating. The only thing you can’t stop is having that instance see your comments and posts on another instance (not your own or the one you defederated from).

Same can be done without a mouse using ctrl+click on Windows and Linux (usually), or cmd+click on macOS.

Two-finger tap also works on mobile Safari.

I’m using Memmy, Mlem, Liftoff, Thunder and wefwef lmao

Haha, same here! I was so proud I knew what the title was referring to before reading the post. Lol

I have plenty of RAM and I run Linux on a VM. Works like a charm. You can even use open source hypervisors like UTM.

I wouldn’t bother running it on bare metal just yet.

Good luck with storage lol

This has the best explanation I’ve seen: https://sfconservancy.org/blog/2023/jun/23/rhel-gpl-analysis/

In particular, see the section “What Exactly Is the RHEL Business Model?”.

Or, if you want a short sentence to read only:

Whether that analysis is correct is a matter of intense debate, and likely only a court case that disputed this particular issue would yield a definitive answer on whether that disagreeable behavior is permitted (or not) under the GPL agreements.

The point is that it does not violate the GPL.

Yes. I just don’t know if it’s good to phrase it as “RHEL customers are legally allowed to share the code”, since as soon as they do it they won’t be allowed to be customers anymore lol (assuming Red Hat finds out)

It’s simple: they can redistribute it since it’s GPL, but if they do so, they break their business contract with RedHat, so they’re not customers anymore and can’t see the source code in the future.

GPL doesn’t mean that they must give the code to everyone, only that you have those rights as long as you have the software. So RedHat is not forced to have everyone as a customer, and according to them, distributing the code kicks you out.

They can still re-distribute the current source they have, but will not have access to future source code.

yabai on macOS is pretty cool as a tiling window manager. Not perfect, but not bad!

That’s not how I understood it. I think saying “closed source” is kind of misleading.

As long as you make it clear in the sidebar, I think it’s perfectly fine IMHO

It’s not even that selfish because surprisingly you might even find a few people who like your content and subscribe! Lol

by the way, I haven’t encountered this personally, but some games have anti-cheat mechanisms that prevent you from running them in a hypervisor

Let’s make it different here!
