Possible interpretation assuming positive intent: “Lol” in this case could mean “Oh shit, I didn’t realize that, damn the internet sucks at attribution. It’s funny that even I can get caught in it sometimes.”
“Lol” doesn’t have to be douchey if you don’t want it to be.
(I acknowledge that I don’t know @cm0002@lemmy.world and they could be a douche, but I choose to assume they’re not until proven otherwise)
I don’t frequent that world much these days, but I personally preferred the agent/pull model when I did. I can’t really articulate why, I think I feel comfortable knowing that the agent will run with the last known config on the machine, potentially correcting any misconfiguration even if the central host is down.
The big debate back in the day was Puppet vs. Chef (before Ansible/SaltStack). Puppet was more declarative, Chef more imperative.
I also admit, I don’t like YAML, other than for simple, mostly flat config and serializing.
I further admit that Ansible just has a bigger community these days, and that’s worth something. When I need to do a bit of CM these days, I use Ansible.
So wait… Did Puppet have a license change as well recently? Is this just preemptive because it looks like Perforce is starting to change things?
The Free Software Foundation requires “CLAs” as well. I have no fear that they’re going to rug-pull. I don’t think we can use that as the indicator. IMO, it’s even a good idea to have a CLA so that’s no conflict that the project owns the code.
The warning for me is if the project is run by a company, especially a VC-backed company. Joplin isn’t, so I would be comfortable using it (although I don’t).
JIRA Data Center: What am I? Chopped liver‽
https://www.atlassian.com/enterprise/data-center/jira
Agreed that JIRA is… not the greatest tool.
Not really. It sounds like they haven’t gone after them for emulation, but instead for emulation-adjacent things: copying ROMs, circumventing digital locks, etc.
They explicitly mention (one of?) the developers of Yuzu sharing ROMs in the article.
In other words, the emulator itself isn’t illegal, but in order to use the emulator the way most people want, you have to do illegal things, and that’s what they go after you for.
Ahh, the comment I was looking for
I would have also accepted: “Haskell did it first.”
X2go is the successor to NX and works well IMO, though I’ve never tried Rustdesk to compare.
They’re Japanese patents, so maybe they’re already circulating in Japanese media and haven’t been translated yet.
Alternatively, maybe the Japanese Patent Office requires you to follow some bureaucratic process to get a copy: like you have to be a lawyer and it takes 4-6 weeks to get your reply. I don’t know, but Japan just finally got rid of its last laws requiring floppy disks for certain processes a few years back, so it’s not out of the realm of possibility
I’m sure we’ll hear the details soon.
I regret that I have but only one upvote to give.
Tried it out. Liking it so far, but I might have soft-locked the demo? I think I got into a state where I can’t get a key to progress. Or at least I can’t seem to find it. Happy to send pics of map or copy of save file if it would be valuable.
This is interesting because I’ve been thinking about switching from Debian to Arch. I’m already running Nix inside of my Debian installation to get more recent apps (I don’t like how snap interacts with the rest of the system, so I avoid it if I can).
Is there anything else on a more base OS level (like apt v pacman) that you’ve noticed is different, if you’re willing to share?
TIL about Rainmeter. This thread has done some good, beyond the obvious good of mocking Dev Home.
I tried to switch to Tidal, but I found their app not as good, their integration with Sonos lacking, and no parental controls, which is important to me. Music selection was pretty good. A lot of niche stuff isn’t there, sadly. For example I sometimes listen to college acapella groups, and there just isn’t as much there. All the popular music is there though.
No, Bastard (Operators from Hell).
Hopefully that checks out, even though it’s an old reference.
(Also, agree with the original expression of the negative systemic evaluation of the US policing system, even if I don’t love the crude expression; and even though I’m contributing in a humourous satire of the expression)
