TL;DR - We can now control swappiness per cgroup instead of just globally. This is something that userspace oom killers will want to use.

You don’t need to provide root access just because you used GPL code, you just have to follow the GPL.

Well, to follow version 3 of the GPL, you do actually need to provide effective root access.

Specifically, version 3 of the GPL adds language to prevent Tivoization.

It’s not enough to just provide the user with the code. The user is entitled to the freedom to modify that code and to use their modifications.

In other words, in addition to providing access to the source code, you must actually provide a mechanism to allow the user to change the code on the device.

The name “Tivoization” comes from the practice of the company TiVo, which sold set-top boxes based on GPL code, but employed DRM to prevent the user from applying custom patches. V3 of the GPL remedies this bug.

For Zulip, I’ve only used it on the web. Apparently they have iOS, Android, Desktop, and Terminal clients.

For Matrix, there are many clients on all platforms, but none have ever stood out to me. Element is the official client, and it’s… fine I guess.

I love this, especially the criticism of the FSF.

For coms, Zulip seems OK. I would really like Matrix to take off, but I honestly don’t really like any of the clients.

Peak Pixel was Pixel 5

Yes, thanks for the spelling correction.

Great photo. Actually, is this a photo?

As someone with a credit card that benefits from points, these kinds of fees are what pay for my vacations…

But this system raises the price for everyone, not just credit card users. The more fair thing, I guess, is to pass the fee along to the CC users.

8½ is a pretty surreal. Considered one of the most influential films of all time. One of the earliest examples of post-modernism in film.

Every scene in Ex Machina is basically a dialogue covering different arguments in the philosophy of AI. Plus a surreal dance scene.

I was blown away by mother! when I first saw it. But looking back on it, the allegory wasn’t exactly subtle.

Once Upon a Time in Hollywood is a meta-modern masterpiece.

Tropic Thunder, as a meta commentary on comedy, is actually really good. Aside from the great comedy itself.

The meaning of version numbers can vary across projects.

One common scheme is Semantic Versioning, which divides the version number into three parts: MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH*

• MAJOR is incremented when there are backwards incompatible changes.
• MINOR is incremented when new features are added in a backwards compatible way.
• PATCH is incremented for smaller big fixes.
• Each number is reset to zero when a higher level number is incremented.

* It’s a bit more complex than this, but this is the gist.

Do Nerd Fonts use the Unicode private use area?

It seems not. It seems like they replace CJK characters instead.

The PUA seems like the right way to handle this.

They can’t even be punished. robots.txt is just a convention, not a regulation. It’s totally not enforceable.

The only legal framework we have is copyright law. Those who oppose this behavior will have to demonstrate copyright violation, and that may be difficult to do since the law hasn’t caught up.

This comment is copyrighted by me and licensed to the public under the terms of the CC-BY-NC-SA 4.0. If you intend to use this comment for commercial purposes, you must secure a commercial license from me, which will cost you a lot of money. If you violate the terms of the CC-BY-NC-SA 4.0 without securing an appropriate license, I will send my army of lawyers that I totally definitely have to defend my copyright against you in court.

It’s not like the Dem base will switch their votes to Trump.

At this point, now that the nominees are decided, the political game is to attract the swing vote, which is mostly “tough on crime,” anti-imigration, and anti-taxation (as it applies to them directly).

Even though none of these policies are actually good for those in the middle.

Unfortunately, I think it’s been demonstrated that OpenAI will feed your data into their training pipeline whether you like it or not. They did this with YouTube. And they demonstrated this with Scarlett Johanson. (Even if they used a voice actor instead of actually scraping voice clips of her, it’s still unethical.)

So we knew they’d just scrape these articles anyway. This way, at least the publications get paid.

Mostly I use custom launchers because I don’t like the Google News feed

What’s wild to me is that back in the Google Now era, I was so excited to root so that I could install the extension for Nova to add Google Now.

But these days, the Google “Discovery” feed is trash compared to what Google Now once was.

This is a good book on how Google treats production environments at their scale.

Cattle, not pets.
