Completely not legal. Maybe contract law is bloated enough in the US to give valve that power, I'm pretty sure it isn't in the EU. Valve can't decide how ownership works, not in all jurisdictions.

I'm also engaged in a (way smaller ofc) FOSS project and I can relate a bit, but it's just not proper to mix the different kind of criticisms into one, and to create the image of one enemy. GNOME is big enough that there is a lot

That is unsubstantiated. How would we know that the same people complained about code cleanups and not having a file picker? Do you have any proof? Users like me who got annoyed by never being able to easily select the wanted image (when in

Sure it answered your questions. F-Droid gets updates, but since the bugs in the UI and the core workflow persist it feels as if it does not get updates. The "normal and correct" references the issues parent reported - since I tes

The Veer's keyboard really worked well. The small screen was problematic for many sites, sure, and not having a good browser hurt it a lot (and especially the bugs, like reloading a webpage on first touch after inactivity, which means

LineageOS seems to make a name change just now with the boot and recovery thing. For reference, https://topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/install.html is what I reference. The file you get instructed to path is the boot.img.

Patching the recovery is specifically deprecated now, according to the install instructions. See also the github issue I linked.

This seems to be partly a Lineage problem - with probably some Android culpability mixed in. Lineage had their own very simple to install superuser addon, but that was dropped a few versions ago. Some Android changes prompted this, but prob

F-droid updates haven't changed the ui or noticeable fixed ui bugs in years. There was one revamp, right? But it feels like nothing came after that. I'm sure they work on it in the background and the upgrades do something, but par

I'm really sorry you feel that way. I dont even disagree that this BS exists, but it is almost nonexistent in my world. Just to say this is not the lesson the students have to learn.

No, sadly Dropbox shut that down many years ago. First the ability to host from there, then the concept of public folders in general (they are behind an UI now).

Hm - Okay, you have a point there. My preferred hoster does not offer this, but many do, and if you don't want to go with a lesser known option that really is even easier. So the old way of hosting it with a shared hoster did improve,

Twitter is no blog. And with both you then later have to fight with the login/paywall. That's exactly what I meant: Looks easier in the beginning, but isn't after the very start.

I honestly think starting a blog in 2023 is exactly as easy as it was 2004 (the year he references), if you take the easiest route: 1. You pick a cheap shared hoster 2. You buy a domain and connect it 3. You download a PHP blog system, like

Most of the population just is not simulated, I think. So the game can't show you that information. I had a similar reaction, after a city of mine completely broke because of simulation errors I gave up on it for a while. Then revisite

Skylines (which I liked) still has weird simulation errors. Like how many ships arrive at ports, which is an ever-changing amount and has no or little relation to the real transport demand. And the amount of trains using a train line depend

To put configs in ~/.program is the convention I learned, not ~/.config/. That came later, and I see 0 reason to pick it up. It's an annoying new hierarchy which I don't even like as a user, so I certainly wouldn&#x

I'd say it is not that impractical. Sits somewhere between a laptop and an ITX build, self-contained but needing table. I thought that was the most impressive part.

AIOs can be very quiet. Mine is (Corsair H90), but only when the pump is not running full speed (then it is quiet, but not very quiet).
