Hopefully this will also include human-generated content with AI scripts, which are not that hard to detect but require a certain amount of wasted time listening to the slop before I skip the video.

You are right, work on packaging GNOME 49 is still ongoing & may take a while (it is a hard job and not many people are working on it). It is not considered a dead end yet, as far as I can tell: https://lists.gnu.org/arc

> But it's like owning another car Well, yes, but it is in fact owning a copy of approximately 10% of all human knowledge ever produced. Someone doing this is clearly doing it for reasons other than personal consumption.

FWIW GNOME can be used without systemd, and this is how Guix System does it. I think over time more and more components are depending on systemd, but at the current moment it is still feasible to swap them out for replacements that don&#x27

The injunction appears to target DNS specifically, so no. The links will just break.

I had to read this three times before I could see this was not somehow a release of strcpy.

This is the most hilarious JS fail I've ever seen. The entire article renders properly, all the text and styling, then the entire screen is replaced by "Application error: a client-side exception has occurred (see the browser cons

Likewise, I will not even consider paying for games (or music) that don't have an unencumbered download option. If the game is open source I will usually buy it without even thinking very hard about whether I'll play it.

How are the game companies supposed to determine that it adds negative value? Speak to the alternative universe where the same game wasn't bundled with it?

> The point of pricing water to that level is... No, the point is to selfishly profit-maximise. I'm not trying to be difficult in saying that. The thing you describe is not the intent, it's the hypothetical effect. It may or

Dynamic pricing based on personal data is not even a market, let alone a perfectly competitive one. Temporal dynamic pricing can mean almost anything, so might be ok (early bird lunch deal) or pure evil (bottled water now costs $100 because

I probably agree with you but what on earth are phones and cars doing in this list? They solve obvious physical problems not caused by a company.

I do wear clothes (all JS code runs in a sandbox). This is a bit like saying "you should lock the door to your house" and therefore refusing to prosecute someone who steals from a house with a broken window frame. I did lock my do

Yes, my point is that this does not mean it is an "opt in checkbox". I appreciate that it allows people to be nasty, it just isn't a "please be nasty" toggle.

I have had hundreds of tabs open for many months in the past. The bottleneck is usually the OS crashing rather than firefox.

Ridiculous comment. People should not have to choose between functionality and privacy.

Rewriting the URL sounds like it would also allow hitting a dummy server in tests. But how does the rewrite actually happen? If you have the literal URL in your code, then fine, but what if you don't?

It may not work for you, I don't know. But it absolutely does work in general!

The 5th amendment only protects citizens, and we are only talking about visiting (as far as I can tell).

Nobody claimed Europe was worse than China, only that if you wouldn't visit China for this reason then you shouldn't visit Europe (or the US) for the same reason. Speaking of being disingenuous, when you say "Police can searc
