It is murder, simple as that. The moment a sperm fertilizes an egg, a new unique genetic material is formed, which is damn near the closest thing we have to an objective standard of when a new human life is started. Embryo is a stage of dev

Not sure what you think Emacs does, but it very much uses pull requests. You write/change code, commit it, send emails to a mailing list requesting to incorporate the code. Just because it's not GitHub doesn't mean it doesn&#

It kind of seems like a pointless middle finger to a situation in which... doing exactly this fork is permitted in the first place. Upstream GNU Emacs is already on a forge, putting it on GitHub doesn't seem to have much point beyond &

ffmpeg is a really powerful tool that's well worth learning. It's become my go to for almost every video, audio, and still image task. One thing that might help: ffmpeg is, in fact, the Unix philosophy of "do one thing and do

gzip has BSD-licensed compatible alternatives already. It's doubtful the same attention would be given to bzip3; chicken-and-egg scenario there. Plus the lingering question of "Why not zstd?"

I understand that AGPL is an attempt to combat software-as-a-service otherwise hiding open source behind a network interface (and yes I know, the FSF's preference against that term). It's still rather heavy-handed to a point that

I lived in the Mojave and the scorpions there aren't really that much of a threat. Scorpion stings are akin to common bee stings and don't really impact your ability to labor or threaten you in any serious way, except if you have

I sort of assumed that Hacker News types would have already known that video on LaserDisc is analog. :) Audio is somewhat more complicated; the original standards had that as analog too, but digital options were introduced (I'd like to

Of particular interest to me is the arcade game Time Traveler, even though by most accounts it is a cheesy FMV game, the technical achievement embraced in MAME is the fascinating bit: the LaserDisc CHD for it is the first of its kind that w

You can't eradicate evil with more evil. Jon Stewart didn't get the memo and he's embracing "more evil" (racism against whites) to combat evils committed historically (racism against blacks). We are all homo sapiens

There isn't one, because copyright holders have all the legal right to do whatever they want. The legal owner of a copyrighted work is not beholden to the license they release the work under.

ReFS is a poor man's version of btrfs much in the same way btrfs is a poor man's version of ZFS. It's also apparent that ReFS is basically abandoned.

First editions, probably. The current ones not so much. Although I guess Volumes 1-3 haven't yet had their MIX code replaced with MMIX, so perhaps even the current ones are vintage.
