   The eternal annoyance of setting up a new computer without easy access to the old one:

   how often you go "what's the fucking hex editor that I use? I can't remember, and I just think of it as 'the hex editor'"

     @foone Imagine hating freedom that much.
     
     Some software packaging systems have a place which requires you to click through or otherwise indicate assent to the terms of the GPLv{2,3}. This is neither required nor forbidden. With or without a click through, the GPLv{2,3}'s rules remain the same.
     
     Merely agreeing to the GPLv{2,3} doesn't place any obligations on you. You are not required to agree to anything to merely use software which is licensed under the GPLv{2,3}. You only have obligations if you modify or distribute the software. If it really bothers you to click through the GPLv{2,3}, nothing stops you from hacking the GPLv{2,3}ed software to bypass this.

     and I keep wanting to rant like my university math teacher.

     To paraphrase him heavily, any system without yt-dlp installed on it shouldn't be considered bootable!

     trying to bring up my Death Generator workflow on a new computer really does make me realize how many tiny little tools I use. I've been working on this one game for like 4 hours today, and about 3 of that was installing various things

     @fuchsiii @foone Meh .. this garbage? You do not need to accept the #GNU GPL to use a program licensed under the GPL. This is just FUD and nonsense at this point, easily debunked.

     People who bitch and moan about the dialogs are just FUDing.
