And then somehow: Open source = Siding against Palestine.
This is the most ridiculous part, if they ever try to enforce the license against someone the definition of evil is going to be decided by a court. In that context a humanitarian organization using your software to help Palestinians is more likely to be condemned than a military contractor that kills Palestinians.
We’re removing the bypassnro.cmd script from the build to enhance security and user experience of Windows 11. This change ensures that all users exit setup with internet connectivity and a Microsoft Account.
Any windows fanboy cares to explain how this supposedly enhances a user’s security?
The spin on requiring an internet connection being phrased as ‘ensures all users exit setup with internet connectivity’ is amazing too.
Certainly not in Congress.
In this case it’s not mere spinelessness, they were pushing for this before Trump to server the interests of their corporate masters (copyright lobby mostly, though big tech would also benefit).
They most certainly have this covered in ToS. IP law is not about actual creators’ rights.
Not sure since I don’t use a VPN. If they assigned a unique public IP per user they could just forward every incoming connection to the user’s PC.
If they don’t they need to setup some port forwarding rules.
If openVPN leaks IPs that’s surely a bug, if it’s specific to v6 you can’t use openVPN and IPv6 till the bug is fixed
Port forwarding is necessary due to NAT not firewalls.
It’s not that your router blocks new incoming connections at port X, it’s that it does not know which local client it’s meant for, since it’s addressed to the public IP that is held by your router.
With IP6 it’s lan client also gets assigned a public IP6 address (as there are plenty) and so the router receives a connection addressed to a Lan client and knows where to route it.
Its an action game with RPG like stst systems.
So non RPGs are better RPGs? You don’t have to like RPGs.
Because those developers are not actually trying to get it to work in Linux, they are trying to get it to work in Windows.
Game developers that are licensing denuvo probably are trying to get their game with denuvo.
Linux intended software does not have the performance issues denuvo has.
Are Journalists (capital j?) sacred or something?
If not are we supposed to be outraged by ill will towards genocide apologists in general?
You mentioned the word outcry in your first post. I therefore assume we are not discussing legality but the response of the US public. Which is not as much as you believe it should be.
The explanation is that the American public does not actually care for free speech as a human right that much. Your own dismissal of corporate censorship as not ‘actual’ censorship reinforces my point. It being illegal on it’s own won’t necessarily cause an outcry.
Especially when it’s done to people that the American public has been propagandized to hate for decades. Ivory tower scientists, ‘working’ for the government like a commie instead of working for a corporation, like Tesla.
Twitter was absolutely a free speech issue, it’s just not a legal issue because despite all the propaganda the US free speech protections are very narrow in scope, only applying to the government.
It also reflects a more general trend in US mindsets where it’s only the government that can violate people’s rights and not private entities. To an extend it helps this takeover by Musk, they are not “real government” they are outsiders that are taking on the “deep” state.
Nobody is asking ‘software’ companies to support software they didn’t write.
We are asking hardware companies to support their hardware and not use different software as an excuse not to replace faulty hardware.
They can reflash their own software to test if needed.
Of course hardware vendors could be legally mandated to adhere to standards to make things easier.
But visudo can use any editor if you set SUDO_EDITOR or EDITOR variables. If you don’t want to use vi(m) you should probably set EDITOR in your .bashrc and visudo and probably other programs will use your editor of choice.
If the number of phones is small maybe. Though I doubt they can just throw lithium batteries in a landfill in the EU.
There are manufacturer’s that produce different phones with the same name and different hardware for different regions but I could not find concrete info if there’s actual hardware differences for iphones.
I doubt even Apple is stupid enough to end up with a significant quantity of un-sellable stock just to ‘make a point’. Or that major vendors wound not have an agreement to rtv merchandise they can’t sell after a certain date. Apple will either use them for parts or reflash them if possible to meet different jurisdictions’ regulations and sell them there.
In regards to existing devices continuing to be used being better for the environment, the law allows that (which), it allows lighting cables (or micro-usb) to be continue to be sold so you can keep charging your working device. You won’t however have to buy new cables and chargers for a new device if you already have a usb-c cable (and compatible charger), nor will it have to be bundled with every new device.
The software code issue is out of scope of this law. There are initiatives that do somewhat help with planned obsolescence such as requiring manufacturers to allow app installation from alternative sources. Of course they could go further, such as allowing to boot an alternative OS, or preventing malicious compliance better. But that cannot be criticism of this directive.
It’s not 160 (seconds) it’s 1 (minutes) **:**60 (seconds). My microwave always keeps the : when I input time.
The publication added that CD Projekt cuts jobs at its subsidiary every two to three years, with annual staff turnover reaching around 30%.
As summed up by another former employee, “GOG has been acting well tactically from a financial perspective, but poorly strategically, and the current business model is likely running out of steam.”
So nothing burger? Other than a corpo being anti-worker which is not news…
This is a Linux community not a professional art/design community.
