Only if you've modified it. If not, then it's upstream's responsibility to distribute source. And even if you've modified it, I think distributing patchsets is enough, no?

Comparing X11 to Win32 is just laughable. X11 is ANCIENT. It also provides no widgets or anything other than windows and drawing primitives (which are ancient). You can't do anti-aliased fonts for example, you have to render then with

Doesn't the last section say that trademark law can be used for pretty much exactly that, in effect?

The painter has the advantage that he's a human drawing an image that will be perceived photorealistic by other humans, so his own "is this photorealistic yet" function is the same as mine and yours, i.e. he can alter the ima

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this basically the same as an HTML DSL, i.e. functions which transform something like (in LISP) (html (head (title "hello")) (body (p "world"))) int

Less hours at the same pay is more money per hour. But there is a subtle difference - cleaning toilets for 2 hours is much different mentally than cleaning toilets for 8 hours. And you can then go look after dogs at the shelter for 4 more h

But those games have always been there. Go in your local store that carries physical copies of games and count the shovelware. Steam isn't supposed to be a curation service - there are tons of those, find a reviewer you like and follow

And people actually pay rather than download a compiled binary? I've sometimes advocated that this could be a viable business model for an open-source project, maybe even have the license forbid redistribution of binaries, but each per

Why not extend the language with an "rmem" keyword or function that you use like this: rmem(pointer) and you're guaranteed to produce a memory read, rather than reusing a value in register. Then say that the compiler is free

The one thing I'll disagree is with you calling it "purpose", rather than "function". One of the functions of religion is indeed better community cooperation. However, the purpose for which a particular religion

I mean, use Tor non-anonymously alongside your anonymous usage. So do resize your regular browser with which you visit regular sites, just do it over Tor so it won't look suspicious when you run the actual anonymous browser to visit ot

Similarly, the parents refer to their children as "perkele". Yes, I know it's a Finnish word, but it seems to be well-known..

Interesting.. shouldn't you do use Tor for as much as possible, including completely legal activities, so that when you do use Tor to legitimately hide something, you wouldn't generate traffic out of the ordinary?

This is insane... IPv6 as a completely separate network from IPv4? JUST ADD 12 BYTES TO THE FRONT OF THE ADDRESS YOU ASSTWATS, then the 0::0/96 is all the current IPv4 space and the rest is up for grabs. Yes, there are still interopera

Eh, nowadays you're probably rendering on a phone screen with a PenTile display and 300ppi, so the entire thing is moot. Plus, every implementation of subpixel hinting I've seen (and I've seen them all, on all three major des

I'm wondering why Nintendo haven't killed this project already. They usually don't tolerate any fan-use of their IP or anything enabling piracy... I wonder if they're actually using this project internally for something.

As a C++ programmer, I would absolutely never write that code using STL's bullshit. The for loop is * shorter * easier to write * faster to compile * way faster to execute in a debug build

Another brand to recommend is MikroTik. Depending on your needs they have routers that can scale from small home use to medium - large office.

I hope this account isn't linked to your actual identity, because in a police state, stating that you're indifferent to police being killed is a very good way of getting very special attention.

Not until content creation tools get smarter. When your level is made of simple tiles in 2D top-down perspective, you can have large levels with lots of sprites, but when each character has to be a fully rigged 3D model and each tree rather
