@osi It does not meet the definition whatsoever and you know it. It promotes violation of every single actually-Open-Source license out there and you know it. But you wanted a piece of the latest scam pie and the people who actually make Open Source (a term I'm likely to stop using now) don't matter in the slightest to you.

The board is confident that the process has resulted in a definition that meets the standards of Open Source as defined in the Open Source Definition and the Four Essential Freedoms, and we’re energized about how this definition positions OSI to facili... -
Lazyweb, what's a reasonable removable media filesystem to use for a ridiculously large number of smallish files, hundreds of GB total?Lazyweb, what's a reasonable removable media filesystem to use for a ridiculously large number of smallish files, hundreds of GB total? FAT32 is just incredibly slow.

This is a point I keep coming back to again and again.@hrefna I so viscerally *dislike* the ideology behind RDF.

Lazyweb, what's a decent cheap "IP camera" that'd work for pet nannycam use?Lazyweb, what's a decent cheap "IP camera" that'd work for pet nannycam use? Absolutely no cloud bs, some sort of simple direct streaming needed and ideally easy to integrate with HA if I ever wanted that. Looking for under-$50 price range.

today's lesson for me: if i open a mastodon thread and see a set of replies, there's zero guarantee these:- are the same replies others see- are the same replies OP sees- are a reasonable, close subset of any of those- don't magically omit all of the h...@whitequark The OP (or anyone @'d) should see all of them, modulo blocking/moderation. But yeah otherwise what subset you see depends on how widely interconnected your instance is. Clients could fix this if they wanted. Automatically, or on demand, pulling full thread from the OP's instance then poking their own instance to grab those posts by querying the local form of them.
I'm really hoping we'll see default behaviors moving in that direction.

It is amazing that any journalism organization, much less the NY Times, would quote Nate Silver on politics without disclosing that he is an "advisor" to political betting company with funding from Trump ally Peter Thiel.@dangillmor Nail Nate Silver and all of the rest of them for securities fraud when it's over.
My take: they've realized their candidate is going to lose but they can make a huge amount of money exploiting their audience who's deluded he's going to win, via using their clout and status as "on his side" to manipulate betting markets.

I saw some toots last night, where supporters of Richard Stallman claim the Stallman report is false and character assassination.@onepict They're completely in the wrong on siding with RMS, but the principle of "I'm not going to read that compilation of facts because I deem the source untrustworthy" is well founded. It's the same reason we don't read their posts on KF about the person they believe is behind the report.
I don't think getting through to them with facts is possible, and that's probably ok. They just need to be ostracized and excluded from participation. We mostly know who they are, can do that if we choose.

@dalias this is a decent point about LLMs and AI but it’s going to be solved within the year from the research labs, then probably another 6 months rolled into the FOSS/commercial AI tools@hipsterelectron @aud @paninid @jedbrown @Techronic9876 Oh I just wanted the gpus seized and destroyed (or even "destroyed" and given to pigs' gamer kids or whatever 🤪) not just made to donate % of compute time.

This morning I was watching a video detailing usage of a knitting machine, and it had me thinking how utterly brainrotted the "tech" industry is with the idea that tools/machines are supposed to make it so you don't have to think or need skills.@datarama Natural language necessarily involves shared context and opportunity for disambiguation on demand. Neither of these make sense in operating a tool.

Contemplating implementing syslog support for something and holding back mostly because I don't want to pull in strftime.@ryanc I would guess less there. 32bit arm is among the most efficient instruction encodings.

But they carried this over into their approach to trying to sell tools to the general public not made up of capitalists, and are trying to sell them their projected fantasy of owning a slave...

Contemplating implementing syslog support for something and holding back mostly because I don't want to pull in strftime.@ryanc Uhg that's cursed. I'd avoid it in musl except strftime is super small anyway, nothing really to be saved by open coding it.
