Wow. A "wontfix" for such a critical bug? I just checked and there are quite a few apps that I've had to give full disk access to - some of which include applications running remote code or reading data from untrusted usb dev

Nice to see more professional commercial projects picking up Blender. It helps to see what are the things missing or suboptimal for "expert" users of the system. Blender and OBS Studio are very good examples of FOSS software that

You don't need to change anything at all. If you build from source all the telemetry, crash reporting and network features are disabled by default. If you want to disable them explicitly each of them is behind a helpfully named compile

There is a lot of flamebait on HN these days. People just regurgitate talking points they see elsewhere without any context. In this case the wxWidgets fork has existed for a very-very long time and has nothing to do with the acquisition.

A pragmatic middle ground is learning fixup and autosquash and making the story mode before merging the code. Your story mode == commit mode provided you can divide at a good enough granularity. This is generally not a problem though.

Hardware getting 100x faster isn't a good reason to make your software 100x slower so that the user-experience feels the same as from 20 years ago.

Why is this noteworthy? Who is this person? Am I missing something? I agree that there needs to be talk about licensing and copyright but with so "less/no content" there can be no meaningful discussion other than aimless bant

If possible you can help other lazy people like me by adding album art and correcting the information in the MusicBrainz or Discogs catalogs. It's very difficult to find print media nowadays and so all the liner, covers and booklets ne

There are commits pretty frequently but yes no new releases have been cut it seems. I contribute in my spare time as and when I find annoyances. I'll check with the maintainers if there's some reason for the hold up.

Beets combined with MusicBrainz Picard is the killer music organiser. Picard can perform tagging, cover art, filesystem organization and fingerprinting of untagged files. Beets can then add juice on top with lyrics, smart playlists, last.fm

Picard is the best. Beets is a little too opinionated. I've recently started using both though. Picard does the initial discovery and tagging. Beets then adds other features on top like syncing my collection to MusicBrainz, adding lyri

TSX has always been a correctness nightmare and nobody uses it AFAIK. glibc also had some support for it but they disabled it by default long ago due to correctness issues. Do people even read past the headlines these days?

Without any context it looks like someone overreacted. It's essentially saying anybody else than Huawei sending cleanup patches is welcome but Huawei is not. Then they try to backtrack that statement by putting out a long list of thing

That a very valid point. But the sad truth is that if the people in charge of deciding product direction are the people looking at telemetry instead of bug reports/patches from users then in the end the Linux user's interests will
