Mmmmm, Russian state propaganda post?
Comment stating that a nation wanting to be free must be subjugated by a dictatorship?
Mmmmm, did I end up on lemmy.ml with the tankies?
Check, yes, we are!

I never really understood why they make these paywalls so badly i mean, its great for us, fuck paywalls and so, but if i wanted to hide something from someone i would not send the text to them, and then quickly put a white piece of paper over it, hoping you wouldn’t notice.
It’s so strange to me


And again < 100.000 dollars in equipment causing billion(s) of dollars in damages
Couple all those monitary losses with the loss of over a million able bodies men, who won’t be helping the economy anymore, the near world wide sanctions, the destruction of their oil storages and refineries and one does wonder…
How long Russia will be able to keep it up?
How much longer untill Russia has a coup d’etat / revolution and publicly hangs Putin?
How many new countries will Russia break into?
For how many decades all these counties will be fucked because Putin fucked Russia so so bad…


What have I ever gotten from paying my taxes?
Except the roads of course, that goes without saying
And okay, okay, police keeps order and makes it we have a lawful nation
And sure, sure, firemen will always be there to protect my house from burning down but that’s nothing!
And I had free education, but come on, isn’t that what you’d expect at the very least?
Nothing!
And okay, they did get me free healthcare too, fine, but that’s nothing
Investments to promote local businesses? Fine…
So aside from the roads, police, firemen, education, healthcare, investments, what have taxes ever done for me?
Nothing!
People like that feel like a Monty Python sketch


From now on, I’ll refer to it as the white wing, I hope the name sticks


AI will never become a bubble as long as idiots keep pumping money into it!
“The position of the FFmpeg X account is that somehow disclosing vulnerabilities is a bad thing. Google provides more assistance to open source software projects than almost any other organization, and these debates are more likely to drive away potential sponsors than to attract them.”
Yeah slave, stop complaining get your ass back to work because I’m about to dump more obligatory work on your lap that you will fix for no pay, I don’t care you have a family to feed!
Your complaining about not having any sponsor for the free work that we sell for millions of dollars may cause that you don’t get any sponsors!
The entitlement and mental gymnastics here at display is insane
Google has made billions off of open source software they got and used for free. Sure, they gave back a few fractions of a penny for each million they made with it, they gave back with adding some softwares here and there when it strategically suited them, but the simple fact is that without open source software, Google wouldn’t exist today, definitely not the way they do now.
Hell, the internet wouldn’t exist as it does today, it would be a tiny fraction of what it is today without open source software. Open source software is amazing yet most people in the world don’t even know that it exists, that it’s a concept, and that people are doing this
Yet there are countless companies profiting majorly from the work of others without giving back a dime. There are multinationals that profit in the billions from open source software without giving back properly or at all.
We need an updated GPL amendment or something that requires companies to start giving back productively in some form or another once they start majorly profiting from the work of open source projects.
OpenSSL heart bleed, for sure
Great example of corporations just taking from open source and not giving back a dime because fuck you, give us your work!
I’d love to see a GPL version where if you’re a company, and you make more than x amount of profit with open source projects, that you gotta fund it with y amount, depending on your profit or something
ALL big tech companies have gotten ginormous thanks to open source software, and though some have given back something, and some have done some funding, it’s always been such few pennies on so many dollars that it might as well have been slavery. Add to that that many times what was given back was only given back because it was a good thing, strategically, for them.
Tech companies are abusive as fuck which made them so insanely big, powerful and rich and this nonsense has to stop
Open source is awesome and ALL software should be open source as far as I’m concerned, but the abuse from tech corporations has to stop


I do not agree
Yes, it sometimes can be difficult and frustrating, but so long as someone, anyone, is willing to try and learn and fail and retry, they can get my help
Have you forgotten that you too started at 0?


“You know, the new thing is magnets. So instead of using hydraulic that can be hit by lightning, and it’s fine. You take a little glass of water, you drop it on magnets. I don’t know what’s going to happen.”
Is that even English?
I’ve never been interested in the “big” pro sports as many times it’s watching a bunch of millionaires working a sweat. Ever since they invented the multi million transfers, it stopped being about a sport and just became watching an investment firm
I’d rather watch local amateur games


Big brands like Google, Microsoft, Facebook
Walled Garden sides, they should be forbidden
Closed source software
Non federated services like chats


So here is an idea, and hear me out on this one: you could use multiple words to indicate what you’re trying to say, I do believe language allows for that.
Unless you want to have separate new words for walking to a hospital, walking to a school, walking to work, and walking to the bathroom, because the word walking alone can’t do that!


Well yeah, I want to install ANY software from ANY plave


Ooohhh, more lies out of the mouth of Elon? You don’t say!
Well if his Mars target dates are anything to go by (2018 first feet on Mars, right? And where are we with that now? Maybe but not even 1%) then this project would be completed by the year 2489


Oh yeah, it was an explosion, arms were ripped off and heads went flying… blood just squirted everywhere it… It was a mustard bath… Cue 1000 yard stare


I fucking guarantee you that Microsofts reasoning for this feature is to again force people to use their shit software.
Oh, don’t want those spam mails? Yeaaaahhh, you need to switch to outlook for that.
Or, you know, just block domains that use Microsoft email


Uh huh.
Loads of scam projects on play store that rarely get taken down but a competitor on play store gets sabotaged. I’m sure it’s purely coincidental


Fuuuuuuck do I hate corpo speak. All the fake friendlynesses and well wishes, ugh, go fuck yourself
No it doesn’t, it let’s you talk to an LLM that is configured to give responses like imaginary beings would.
