Smells like Apple knows something but can’t say anything. What reason would they want lifespans cut so short other than they know of an attack vector that means more than 10 days isn’t safe?

AFAIK they’re not a CA that sells certs so this can’t be some money making scheme. And they’ll be very aware how unpopular 10 day lifespans would be to services that suck and require manual download and upload every time you renew.

This is actually why I use macOS at work - I wasn’t able to get a Linux box approved by IT but they happily support macOS and I get to use basically all the same software I do on Linux.

Lost me immediately with “Blockchain Socialist”.

All that money and engineering to have a human still needed to do the job of a human lol.

Exactly. Source it from upstream at build time or something so it’s transparent.

You’ve been on vacation for 5+ months?

Also wouldn’t it be best to post this communication in the issue thread?

Given how long this has gone on now, it’d probably be best to inform your community that you’ll be removing BLOBs from the source and for them to be produced during build otherwise this shadow is going to remain.

This was the first time I’ve ever heard of your software and has kind of made me want to steer clear of it.

What’s this in reference to or taken from?

MIT still has copyright attribution which means you don’t own it, just have lots and lots of rights. You own the code, but you don’t own the name etc.

MIT-0 is public domain, there is no copyright by the creators, that right is assigned to all of us. You own that content and idea. It’s why anyone can use Sherlock Holmes and do anything they want with the character as he’s public domain. You don’t have to call him Schmerlock Hoves.

But yeah, for all intents and purposes to the thread, you’re right. MIT etc you can sell the code/binaries so gives you practical ownership.

But that’s against the User Agreement with GOG. You don’t have that right, DRM or not.

GOG are not selling you something you own, just like the rest of the gaming platforms. They just give you the right to download and keep DRM-free installers (for the most part) for games you license / purchase.

I like GOG, don’t get me wrong, but you don’t own anything you buy from them, you just possess. Ownership means you have control over that possession too which is only really true of a minuscule fraction of FOSS games that are licensed with MIT-0, 0BSD, Unlicense, CC0 or some other public domain license (which doesn’t include GPL, MIT, Apache licenses).

That’s ridiculously cool. Really appreciate you sharing that.

Impressive! I thought emulation would be embarrassingly slow - my attempts to get Windows VMs running on macOS on Apple Silicon resulted in single-digit FPS just rendering the desktop. What dark arts are they conducting?

It sounds like you’re interested in epistemology. Take a dive into this Wikipedia article and give at least the parts on Justified True Beliefs a read.

Sadly people seem to be misunderstanding your sarcasm. /s became a thing on Reddit for this reason.

Best answer here. Wikis have a much more complex syntax and templating if you’re trying to do visually appealing content whereas Obsidian with Canvas, Graph, and many of the plugins is so much easier to get up to speed with and add in crazy cool functionality.

They offer hosting for $8 or $10 per month.

You can also just use GitHub and do it all for free.

Taking it private just means taking it off the stock market (the news of it possibly going private has already cause the share price to spike).

Honestly, public trading of games companies sucks anyway and is what drives all the shit you see from the likes of EA, Take Two, Roblox etc.

Under private control, and less drive to bleed every drop of value out of every property might mean we can get classics like Beyond Good and Evil again.

That isn’t Dante Basco…

Steam VR 3.0 bitches. Grab your tinfoil Half-Life 3 crowbars because the 3 is a-coming.

Jokes aside, Valve really are true to their word 11 years ago at LinuxCon.

The car thing really blew my mind. My hotel was 400m from the office but 1.6km by car. Colleagues were waiting for a taxi while I walked. I had to cut over a couple of car parks and a bit of grass (zero sidewalks) and was there in a few minutes while they turned up 15min later since they were waiting for a taxi.

The worst part, they all jumped in cars to go 300m down the road for lunch. Yeah, I walked. With looking for a parking space then walking from the space to the restaurant, they got there after me.

I adore Americans; they’ve been nothing except kind and generous to me in every part of the country I’ve visited but damn, the money they’re wasting alone just starting their engines and the wear and tear on the vehicles blows my fucking mind. Build some sidewalks, guys!

You okay?
