So in other words, I’m thinking of Linux

So in other words, I’m thinking of Linux
On bad operating systems like Linux, yes. ;)
The Wendy’s 4-Alarm Spicy Chicken Sandwich.
That’s not unlike youtube really
Anyone else get free Ubuntu CDs shipped to their house? I think I had 7.10 (Gusty Gibbon) shipped to my house back in 2007.
Otherwise, Mandrake Linux was my first “good” distro. I first tried one called Lycoris which claimed to be an beginner’s distro with it’s own DE, and it was impressive how well it handled setting up a dual boot installation and at the time it was a revelation that I could use a computer without Windows. I didn’t begin preferring linux until I tried Mandrake with KDE 3, though.
It’s not as if they are holding themselves up as supporting Free Software philosophies (as opposed to Open Source), so where’s the pretense?
If somehow it ever makes strategic sense for them to stop making use of the open source model, yeah, they’ll stop. That doesn’t mean they were pretending.
I don’t think they’re pretending. Open source software is a valuable resource for basically all major tech companies, and a lot of it is driven by major tech companies. Some kind of combination of open source and proprietary software will always be a thing for them. This isn’t some major contradiction, they use either model based on the specific needs of the project.
This is why some think “Open Source” is too permissive since they see it as free/cheap labor to be exploited by huge corporations.
I’m not sure that I see it that way, but I can see their point.

I see it as a social signifier more than anything else.
I just say “salud.” I’m far from a fluent Spanish speaker, but I like it better. It’s the same as “gesundheit” but easier to say.
I have never contributed to an open source project before, so if we exclude the third part this is the reverse of my habits. The stuff I do for work is bare minimum garbage, I freely admit. I really do not like my employer.
Don’t worry about it, the angry edit was meant to be humorous- in general I agree that it’s a mistake to let downvotes upset you.
(And because I’m the admin of my own instance, the votes are made visible through the UI. So if I wanted to be a vindictive weirdo about it, I could… 😉)
“In case this is a real question?”
Anyway, I just read through the settlement and I didn’t see any explicit transfer of ownership of he code in there. I’m not a lawyer though, there are some things in there I may not understand the implications of.
Did they transfer ownership of the code to Nintendo? If so, it might be a violation of Nintendo’s copyright on Yuzu itself.
To everyone who downvoted this: You are of low relative quality. Friggen jerks! I dress better than you! GET A LIFE! 😡😡😡😡😡
I try to do an “end-run” around federation drama by using my own instance, especially since I prefer to be as openly federated as possible. This is not without drawbacks, but it’s really not bad.
My fear is that one day the biggest instances will switch from using block lists to instead only federate with an allow-list. That would basically make this use non-viable.
It’s not quite as good as reddit was for me when reddit was good.
My hope/expectation is that for lemmy (and the wider “threadiverse,” e.g. kbin) the best days are still to come.
“Instead of working on that project that you were enjoying working on in your spare time, why not do this completely different other thing?”
That’s not reasonable.
Exactly, you never intended to commission an artist because you think so-called “AI art” is good enough to replace them.
Weird argument to make on a piracy sub, honestly. The existence of an AI generated image does not imply that a somewhere an artist lost a commission. Nobody was replaced. It’s not a choice between AI art and commissioned art, it’s a choice between AI generated images and nothing at all because that was the point of his project.
Whether we find it tasteful or interesting is another topic.
Agreed, and I don’t intend to stop at the moment. When I wrote “close it” I meant registration, sorry about the ambiguous language.
You’ve lost me on this one. No idea what you mean. But either way, I think you should take my comment just a bit less seriously.
