To be devil’s advocate, the game’s focus is mostly online, so Denuvo doesn’t play a big role here.

That’s not what I’m saying. They forgot that cloud compute isn’t the only area where America holds EU by the balls. It’s also the software. You can set up 500 data centers all over Europe and companies still won’t migrate away from M365 or GWorkspace. Cloud compute is good, but there also needs to be an effort to reverse engineer American technology and start offering alternatives.

Sucks, I manage GitLab in our company and it’s been difficult to maintain already without the vibe coded shit updates that break everything. I’ll need to see what are our options our but my assumption is that there aren’t any.

Very brave. Tech industry is a very tightly knit circle. If they’re known around as employees who put morals above profits they’ll find themselves not welcomed in many companies. Sad reality.

Iirc the openXML standard was open sourced due to some anti trust stuff brewing. They then expanded on the standard with proprietary addons that give LibreOffice/Google Docs trouble.

We’re not at that part yet, a few more years are needed

The older I grow, the quicker I realize Idiocracy was a documentary of the future to come.

Technically, according to the GPLv3 you don’t need to make the source code publically available. If you sell software with binaries then their source code must be included with it. If you’re Red Hat you can also add an additional ToS to the website that states if you buy the software you can’t freely distribute the source code you download from the website or you will be sued to oblivion.

Didn’t the new CEO just start?

Don’t understand how this isn’t criminal in America.

Invite only torrent tracker. It’s not enforced but it’s proper etiquette to not share the direct link. If you search for redacted music tracker on Google I’m sure you’ll find the URL.

Hello.

Although we pirate for various reasons (ideology, no money to spend on entertainment, etc.) I wanted to know if the community actually donates money to any FOSS project? Nearly all of us use a torrent client based on libtorrent (qBit, Transmission, Deluge) or an open source Usenet client such as SABnzbd to consume our pirated content, yet I wonder, how many people here donate to FOSS projects?

I donated 15 euro to KDE in the past, as well as 10 euro to qBittorrent to keep the projects alive. I think that software that respects it's users deserves to be rewarded for doing so. What is your opinion?

 

Hey everyone, I'm looking for a studying mate so that we can compare each other's code etc. I have a course from work for JS (it's not mandatory) but I feel like if it's any attempt I tried in the past, without anyone to study with I will mostly end up neglecting in a few days.

Which is why I'm reaching out to hopefully find someone who is on the same technical level as me to enrich our knowledge. A bit about myself: I'm a full time SysAdmin with some background knowledge in bash/python/powershell (not making any GUI apps or anything like that, just work related scripts) and I self host a few applications for myself and therefore I don't consider myself a complete beginner.

Private message me, I'm available on both Discord and Matrix.
