How come I don’t see any high-speed balloon chases then?

That is impeded by laws higher than your country's.

For now, I have just saved it in my clipboard application, so I copy-paste.
When it goes out of history, I just open a file, where I have saved it and copy from there. So it's pretty crude.

I was hoping that either the KDE Social web interface would add a "Signature" feature or I would pick some Lemmy application that would allow that, but for now it's just this.

Perhaps, if I feel like it's being too frequent, I may set a compose key for it.

Not every. The quick, very-low effort ones, I just leave.

Why:
I saw another post with "Anti Commercial AI License", then wen on to read the license and went, "Neat!".

  • It makes it easier for anyone to decide what to do if they want to use my comment/post (in cases where it actually has something useful)
  • It makes life just a bit harder for people data-mining for AI
    • That way, some data entry worker will probably ask for a raise and probably even get it and maybe some entrepreneur going "AI everywhere!" will think twice.
    • Or there will be a chatbot spouting "Anti Commercial AI License" or "CC By-NC-SA" in their answer text, which would be hilarious.

I feel like I am going to have to do the same thing in the end, to get my hand-over accepted.
Should I just copy the line of code and make a comment next to it with:

// It does <paste line of code>

Yeah, I thought so too.

Guess the V3 has some major, thoughtful changes.

Just checked the tivoization definition. (Guess I should have done so, when reading the original thread, when I felt unsure from their explanation of the word).

So, it has to be runnable on the same hardware after modification. It makes sense now.

I seems like something that would be good in case the solution is being used for a long period and would make sure the user doesn't have to bear the burden of finding another platform that would run the binary, in case a library update is required. This would be in the interest of even corporate clients.

I came across a stackexchange thread asking if system root access will be required to be given to the user.

And the answer explaining the license and saying they needed to let the user be able to swap the libs on the system somehow.

And because I just joined the community and can't comment there, here I am.

I feel like, the seller doesn't really need to give root access to the user as long as they allow the user to copy said proprietary software on another system (and this act not be restricted by the license) and then do whatever they feel like, as long as the original system is immutated.

Thoughts?

No problem.
It's supposed to be a reference to an old novel.

Except that there is. Alright, maybe not exactly, but...

The whites that you see as white (in the other white parts which don't seem red), are shifted like #E0F9F8. Notice the reduced reds there.

The whites you see as red are shifted like #F9F9F7. This one, I'd probably call yellow, but you get the point, reduced blues. There's probably a better example pixel in there and I just haven't found it.

The red pixels in the thumbnail, well, maybe JPEG downscaling? I can't say, because I don't know what downscaling algorithm is being used.


So the parts you see as white, are actually bluish white in a sea of blue (Cyan is just mixtures of blue and green in case of RGB) and the part you see as red, are reddish white, in a sea or blue.

Also, for those who don't see red, don't look straight at the image. Look at something near it, with the image in your peripheral vision and you'll get what others are saying. But I guess that happened while you were reading the title.

"It's not just drive", is my point.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago

It will still cause you problems if you are reliant on it though.
I am also trying to slowly get enough alternatives that random Google decisions don't cause me misery, but...

I'm going to go with "Yes"

Image shows screenshot of XCOM2: War of The Chosen: Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc. Terms of Service, with an added Mandatory Arbitration clause in Section 15.

Came back to the game after a year or so, just to see this:

Shows how to opt-out

At least they let us disagree to the ToC. Not sure if I can play the game after that though, since I just exited after clicking the disagree button.

Also, at least they show us the changes on the top, so we know what happened.

Would it make sense to consider asking Tokodon to support connecting with Lemmy servers, or is there too big a difference between the APIs, requiring a separate application?
