My eye hit the "It’s not just hot water – here’s why" as one of the first things... em-dash, here's why... I smell the smelly smell, even though I'm not even opposed to it haha.

Which is why we perhaps need a GPLv4? With some provisions that force open sourcing model architecture + weights when using such code as training material?

And we just don't think about all the software that is then not being created because people feel it's immediately everyone's property and so won't even bother? Sure, we can copy software, so it's not like they are

Oh and bless the people that won't use anything but GPL software. Don't bless the people that think you are evil for not applying the GPL to your creation.

If you look for it I think you’ll find that they indeed see it as their mission to offer an ecosystem to rival MS and Google. You can do docs and since a couple of weeks also spreadsheet. It’s all decent but very minimal. Drive is aspiring

I like the calendar, it deals well with all other providers. I like Pass, especially for sharing credentials in the family. Drive is nice, although I switched to Immich. I use the VPN a lot too.

RMS asks you to give something up: Your right to share a thing you made, under your conditions (which may be conditions even the receiving party agree on), nobody is forced in this situation, and then he calls that evil. I think that is wro

As much as RMS meant for the world, he’s also a pretty petty person. He’s about freedom but mostly about user freedom, not creators freedom. I also went through such a phase but using words like “evil” is just too black and white. I don’t t

It really should be like that indeed. Where is RMS? Is he working on GPLv4?

Omg, I though I could only just grab that super tiny edge. Turns out can grab the "air" around it. Thanks for the heads up, makes life a lot easier!

Ah ok, yeah sure, that was nice (could have added an A and HDMI port in this case, but ok, they were early with that.)

Weeeeelllll that was mainstream a long long time before they adopted it. And I'm still annoyed that the only devices with Lightning in our house are my Airpods en iPhone mini 12 and wife's iPhone 14 Pro. Always need to attach an a

Yes but they also haven’t generated spicy deep fakes and talked kids into suicide with their products. It’s just how Apple does things: They still have no folding phone, under-screen finger print scanner, under-screen front-cam, etc.

Or rather ZFS/BTRFS/BchachFS. Before doing anything big I make snapshot, saved me recently when a huge Immich import created a mess, `zfs rollback /home/me@2026-01-12`... And it's like nothing ever happened.

Nice. I'm an open source guy, but being disappointed with Android's openness (years ago) I got a Nokia Lumia 800 with Windows 10 Mobile (or whatever it was called). Loved that OS. Fast, well integrated. Can't help but keep th

I think you're being down-voted because the down-voters can't imagine AI video ever being really good. I can though, and I think indeed a "made for you" adventure may be quite nice. It could also suck, but I'm not s

My kid loved that interactive Bear Grylls stuff, still talks about it sometimes (what his wrong choices were etc.) Sometimes I think they kill this stuff before it get mainstream. Also, some way to control via the TV, or Chromecast may have

I see some people donating money to open source. I'm currently discussing with my bookkeeper but she says it's all personal, so I pay income tax (in the Netherlands) and then I can donate. Is this really true? Why can't I jus

Now I want a sofa of that shape to go with my ein-stein tiled floor and decorative Knuth’s dragon. I’ll add some nice art in a shape that can’t pass through itself as well.

"Zakje chips" is a small bag of crisps (like Lays)... If they go for fries they'd say they go for a "frietje". Eindhoven is distinctly in the South :) That damn Red Bull though, somehow the kids love it, part of it

In the Netherlands we have two words for fries and you know if someone is from the north or the south based on their use: Patat, north en Friet, south, particularly in the South people are sensitive to using the wrong, northern word. (And c

There is a strange, but pleasant feeling when you hear someone claiming “they’re early to Linux” and think it’s going to be something big. (Happened recently.)

No, can’t say I noticed it. But I’m not a native English speaker. For me the AI transforms my poor Dunglish (Dutch-English) into perfect English. I do tell it to not sound like an American waiter though.

Pff the mental list of what I can’t use when I write is getting pretty big. Em dashes are done for, as are deep dives, delving, anything too enthusiastic, and Oxford commas… A text either has value to you or it doesn’t. I don’t really under
