On the contrary, I think this is a responsible way to operate. The terms of use apply to the Mozilla distributed binary, not the open source version and open source forks, and I don’t think additional terms shut them out of that. The privacy policy is clear, concise as can be and links so that people can jump directly to what is being collected.

Mark my words: Office Online will “adopt” these advertising and cloud-save only features within 2 years.

(If this happens and I remember this comment I will try to link it).

I’ve so far not had success with my Akai EIE Pro on Linux.

Ooooh nice going! Saved this post because once in a blue moon I come up with short jingles, and I’ve been wanting a software that can record MIDI stuff without lag.

Okay, title has been updated to clarify the situation. At the moment, it’s neither confirmed source-available only nor confirmed FOSS. Hopefully that clears it up and nobody’s confused.

I never claimed it’s FOSS, license is to be included by the creator. If it is part of the same project as the backend, it may be GNU AGPL-3.

If that’s not satisfactory, let me know and I will put (Source Available) in the title.

He is a very busy man at the moment, as you can probably imagine. But yes we should make sure the license is included in the coming days to make it truly free. He still has yet to add documentation, but said on Mastodon that is coming soon.

That’s huge news! And it’s amazing that they have a SDL2 API implemented with SDL3, which will take a lot of rewrite work out for people.

The only update to the drama (as Steve already prepared a lengthy response in written form), is that investigative and advocacy videos similar to Honey, NZXT or ASUS will move to a new channel called Gamers Nexus Consumer Advocacy.

I think that even if it risks diminished reach, this is for the better. On the main channel Linus’ concerns for proper tech journalism can be assuaged. On the new channel, Steve can be as biased as he wants, for all our benefit. I just hope he doesn’t get burnt out running 2 channels simultaneously.

If Elon can go fsck himself that would be great. I sense a systematic lack of integrity from him.

Can it be expressed or represented approximately in IEEE-754 form?

Go ahead, also the !linuxsucks@lemmy.world community is this way for complaints.

W10 has gotten to a point to where it’s alright but not amazing (particularly because SSDs are more standard as OS drives, and can handle the constant read/writes Windows 10 does to it). Feel free to stay but we’ll still be here to support you, when you’re ready to dive in fully, when Microsoft inevitably leaves you behind in support.

W11 is a spyware riddled mess. People need to be made aware of alternatives so they think it’s not the only option when W10 support is dropped.

Neat, I did already transfer my budgeting to GNUCash a few months ago, but this looks shiny too.

DDG only recommending older Reddit answers as a result of the Google deal may be a net positive for it then.

If someone came unannounced to my home identifying themselves as the Head of Human Resources, checking in on my sick leave… I’d probably sneeze or have a giant coughing fit right in their face.

“If there’s anything you need” – bud, I need to be left alone to recover.

Fluffychat on Android mobile. Feels familiar.

It’s a useful tool, but there is a security concern for anything not fully open source. You will have to weigh your risk factors, I doubt that it’s any problem for most consumers or distro hoppers.

Best to keep an eye in case any new contributers arrive suddenly…

We need to keep the Heritage Foundation, Project 2025, and everyone involved in attempting to make this a reality firmly implanted in everyone’s mind to remember that this will be their goal in 2025, 2029 and beyond, we can’t lose sight of those consequences of a future fascist Republican administration. Even if Democrats cinch the legislative and executive branch there is still part of the judicial branch compromised by Trump apointees who believe bullshit theories to excuse keeping policies in that hurt people so there will be ongoing work to be done.

And yes, before anyone asks, of course I posted to Lemmy first 😆

green is my pepper 🫑
