@molly0xfff I wonder one of the judges is free to officiate Lord Wheatherby's wedding, or if they only commit to the bit when playing pretend with cryptobros.

xek (xek@hachyderm.io)'s status on Tuesday, 05-Mar-2024 00:44:10 JST xek @luckytran I really want this, but I'm not sure if I want it for the utility or because it has the same awkwardly impressive vibe as a six-neck guitar.

xek (xek@hachyderm.io)'s status on Thursday, 07-Sep-2023 23:39:34 JST xek @docpop I might suggest one small edit:
To disable Google's "advanced" ad tracking, go to http://firefox.com and download Firefox for your platform. When it launches, import all your stuff from Chrome, make Firefox your default browser, and then install uBlock Origin from https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ublock-origin/
Boom, invasive tracking gone.
(For the nerds: Firefox is now performance-competitive with Chrome, and works for 99% of things. It's nothing like it was in 2009ish when we all switched away.)

xek (xek@hachyderm.io)'s status on Tuesday, 17-Jan-2023 05:39:13 JST xek @msw Ah, you're right. Thanks for pointing that out! I still think that copyleft is the only truly Free Software, and have since the 90s, but apparently I was wrong on the definition people were using then, too.
Will update original post to clarify that I meant non-copyleft.

xek (xek@hachyderm.io)'s status on Tuesday, 17-Jan-2023 05:34:03 JST xek At this point, almost all non-open-source apps have moved (or are moving) to an *aaS model.
In a decade, will the only perpetual licenses for software be FOSS ones?
And, almost as importantly, will those *aaS providers actually contribute back to the non-copyleft ones?

xek (xek@hachyderm.io)'s status on Tuesday, 17-Jan-2023 05:34:00 JST xek @msw To be less snarky, the vast majority of FOSS right now is not Free Software. There's a lot of MIT, BSD, LGPL, etc etc, and a lot less GPL code out there.
The only licenses which purport to force people to release code are the GPL. I've long preferred GPLv2, but I rarely release things you could build a whole cloud on, so, meh.
I always thought AGPL/GPLv3 were sorta draconian, but am starting to come around.
