It's a different social contract. It's not just the waitress, it's service in general. One trying to judge the other is never quite going to work because it rubs us wrong in some weird internal way. Eg go into a big store bra

You have to actively go out of your way to have this enabled. But large or older companies always have some old machine (can be as dumb a an old but very expensive printer) that isn't updated. Even today the only reason to use samba 2

The tool defines how to use itself. If it requires using a temporary files to bypass shell limitations that it has no control over, then that's how it should be done and not a broken behavior. "I want to use blue and red on my mul

You are completely missing his point with his answer. His point was less about ffmpeg being broken or not, and more about the fact that if you can't have an opinion or input of your own beside parroting a advanced Markov chain generato

That's a very wrong view of how Wikipedia works, and frankly vastly I prefer its limited but generalized gatekeeping than "everybody is allowed to lie and bullshit and as long as it makes engagement your feed is going to be fille

The EU court case against Microsoft, with FSFE and the Samba team fighting the good fight, was also a major step in getting there. It was one of the "first few major cases" in the EU against tech, and the testimonies from the open

It really depends on the quality (strenght of the teeth, willingness to use it) of the regulator here; we have a lot of similar situation in EU/France and it's always a case that either it creates a new right or it creates a moat,

This is such a weird comment, the article is posted without commentary, and describe a very simple fact. How does you go from that to "hn is out of touch"... As an aside, while alcohol will definitely remain a staple of sales, it&

It's basically the reason this bubble not only exists but has a chance not to pop : there is so much stock value in it that the big tech all want to keep feeding it, and they're sitting on so much cashflow they can afford to do it

The tech giants have a lot of cash-flow to burn, and at this point it's better for their investors that they do rather than admit it was a loss or the stock value would fall. It might be a huge pile of cards but this time they have the
