   I'm not seeing how this is fair use in either case. Someone correct me if I am wrong but aren't these works being digitized and transformed in a way to make a profit off of the information that is included in these works? It woul

   What's that particular auth for again? Is it to distribute permissions to the shared folder user you add?

   I'm not understanding why we have to have a model that replicates SaaS pricing for local-first software? Obsidian is doing a pretty good job selling sync functionality to their free client. Because the have a really good markdown edito

   Are you requiring a google account for file/folder based auth on a per user bases for a vault? Not to keen on using a 3rd party for this kind of thing.

   No the original meaning of "Common Good" is related to "Common Law" And that actually originated in Rome between the Republic and Empire periods. Your focus on the specific dates have nothing to do with the actual origin

   Yeah I can see some truth in this. Structure and processes help us deal with this problem. And my experience has been that structures and process get corrupted, kind of like what has happens in or political systems over the years. IMHO, it

   In this context, I disagree. Its really clear what the good in "Common" means. Its like principles of what the Constitution was written on. Life, Liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Principles like these are qualities we all na

    So "Common Good" is directly related to "Common Law" which showed up in 509-27 BC Rome during the Republic period and it was a way to have a common understanding between the "Common People" when Rome's pol

    Here is the etymology of the word: common(adj.) c. 1300, "belonging to all, owned or used jointly, general, of a public nature or character," from Old French comun "common, general, free, open, public" (9c., Modern Frenc

    The word "Common Good" has a specific meaning. It steams from the word "Common" which means the people that share common values at our most basic levels, and "Good" means whats best for the people that share th

    Yeah, I'm gonna have to disagree with that. Computer users are shaped by the tools that they have available to them. There is always going to be a varying of degrees on how much a user gets in customization, but when the environment is

    If you have to have this kind of monitoring on your OS, to circumvent spying on your apps, something is really wrong and you should probably take the nearest exit.

    Obsidian falls into the new features category of not just updates, hence why I think they are the exception to the rule about the laziness of developers around the subscription model. But I do understand where you are coming from. I just do
