"applications they want" is kind of hard to convey though. If you run a game with a rootkit, is that something you "want"? If you open a malicious document and it ends up encrypting your data, did you "want" it

Jami doesn't need a web browser, and doesn't need someone to set up a server, AFAIK.

NFTs' value is nearly as real as gold's though. It's a social agreement.

Car horns seem to be calibrated to be heard by someone wrapped in a car, and are too loud for unprotected listening. Bicycle bells are closer to that range. No wonder the cyclist got freaked out.

How can a 2GHz machine have trouble playing Quake 3? It was designed for ~400MHz, after all.

On the topic of different programming-driven games, Mind Rover is a robot simulator in which you program by connecting wires, carrying something like analog data. I'm not aware of anyone else ever having played it, but it seems to ha

I'm sorry about your experience, but from what it seems, your problem was in your team. Any measure can be turned into a bad policy, code complexity is a red herring here.

It might not be their fault, but as long as they operate within a framework that allows that, it's their problem.

It makes one issue less severe at the cost of adding 2 extra problems. I don't think that warrants a generalization of "secure enough".

I see where we differ now: I've experienced that when you are being barraged with mud, some will usually stick, with the exception of maybe groups of close friends. As such, I don't mean that you are the one who takes the bait,

I can understand this reasoning when it comes to personal insults. I understand it less when it comes to tolerating baiting, which takes time and attention from the original reason (work, fun, etc.) of the social space. Why is being offende

Is getting offended about someone insulting you or who starts discussions which make people angry unreasonable? I'm genuinely curious, maybe I misunderstand what it means to be offended.

My question is more about the general case. Is this something project authors should rely on in their future? Will it sometimes be easier to just fork? Would fork-relicensing be a good thing for the community? Or should there be a different

This sounds unsustainable. Will a death of a core contributor mean that the project is stuck on a license forever?

> if all governments crack down on crypto, would it actually have any value? Which puts cryptocurrency at a minimal advantage over other currencies: it's easier to crack down on currencies whch have centralized control.

I think "mining stuff" means scripts that secretly mine cryptocurrencies using your browser.

I gave GNOME 3 a shot on a secondary computer. I immediately had to install tweaks for some basic customization: changing the theme was one, and having both displays switch when moving between virtual desktops. Dynamic number of desktops is

That sounds reasonable on the surface, but cards don't cost a lot, and sending them out for free to leverage community interest for the open source stack could be extremely cost effective.

(1) See my other comment, this is pretty similar to having to pay for them, except now you pay with your time, and proportional to your... geographical placement? That doesn't make a lot of sense. (2) See my other comment. (3) That&#x2

I'd draw the line at not spreading/hiding the costs. Have the payment for the law be part of the degree (for example), instead of creating a surprise payment only after somebody already invested some time into the path.

I guess another way to look at this is just another tax that you have to pay. This tactic is underhanded though in that it favors those who don't pay the tax and take risks without knowing the code (they have more money left if they wi
