Mozilla wouldn’t be struggling if another monopoly (Microsoft) hadn’t destroyed their company.

As I recall, the guy who makes Pixelfed (dansup?) is also working on a vine clone called loops. It looks like the site is https://loops.video/ Doesn’t appear to be operational yet.

The moon is made of cheese. Are these blocks from the moon? They are, aren’t they. Wow! The Egyptians took giant blocks of cheese from the moon and made pyramids!

Isn’t there an infamous Usenet post where someone did that to the creator of Perl?

I am no lawyer, but I suspect what will be considered either fair use or infringing will probably depend on how the programmed AI model is used.

For example, if you train it on a book of poetry, asking it questions about the poetry will probably be considered fair use. If you ask the AI to write poetry in the style of the book’s poems and you publish the AI’s poetry, I suspect it might be considered laundering copyright and infringing. Especially if it is substantially similar to specific poems in the book.

I think it comes from the article seeming to be oblivious to all the other alternative android OSes.

There are many Android based OS for phones. Graphene is a privacy focused Open Source OS which already fills the niche Apostrophy supposedly does. https://grapheneos.org/

I think they may be talking about the “discount” tracker cards. The ones which you fill out an application to get, so you can get the special “discount” (really what the price used to be).

I don’t use peertube much, but Chris Were sometimes does game videos. https://share.tube/c/ludochris/videos?s=1

There is also a setting under accessibility to turn off animations (at least on my phone–a Pixel 4a w/5g). It is in the color and motion section.

Not a lawyer and it has been a while since I studied this, but when one open source project uses another, they aren’t really transforming the others code into a new license.

When GNU/FSF says a license is compatible with the GPL, they mean you can legally use the code with the GPL. More or less, the FSF says if you use a GPL code the entire project has to give end users all the freedoms in the GPL. The LGPL is slightly different in that it can be a separate library. They consider even dynamic linking a GPL project to require both projects to be covered under GPL.

This is why proprietary developers call the GPL “viral.” GPL code “infects” all other code with its license. This is the deal you make when you use GPL code, and I think it is a fair one. You don’t have to use their code.

I suggest you read the licensing bits of the Free Software Foundation’s website. fsf.org and gnu.org

The real fdroid is not malware. Did you get it from f-droid.org?

The vendor’s software may be spyware and not like you using something other than the stock keyboard. Though it may just be poorly written software which conflicts. Could be many things.

It looks like it is powered by a microcontroller. Maybe it isn’t powerful enough to support epub?

From what I understand, YouTube chooses ads based on your location, demographics, and your watch history. Well, this isn’t exactly right, because yt auctions the ad space on the fly, so it is a complex decision based on all those factors.

Any good substites on FDroid? Specifically SMS and file manager?

A second USB port or headphone jack adds $1(US) to the manufacturing cost, if even that. Can’t cut into the corporation’s massive profits by even a little. Nope, can’t have that.

This seems to be the reason why I don’t use Amazon very much anymore. Almost every time I search for something, most, if not all, of the results have nothing to do with what I wanted. I can’t be the only one who has stopped using them because of this.

Anyone have better recommendations for online shopping?

Java isn’t an interpreted language any more than C. Java gets compiled into its own machine code developed by Sun. That machine code can be converted to native code or just run “interpreted.” (which is more like emulation.)

Maybe you should learn more about something before you criticize it.

Now coming to everyone soon: algae world! All algae all the time! Covered in slime? That’s worth a dime! There is no escaping it, not even a bit.
