But you couldn't release your own projects based on this under pure MIT or Apache-2.0. Presumably you'd need to include the same restriction about selling on Atlassian's marketplace.

Being old means you have the knowledge of what was. Whether you look at the past objectively or with rose-tinted glasses is irrelevant.

It works okay for a while, but eventually it loses the plot. The storylines are usually pretty generic and washed out.

I run Gentoo as my main distro, and have for a couple years now. It's a pretty stable rolling release (IMO more stable than Arch), and since you're already an advanced user, the experience should be pretty rewarding!

The wiki is great, and the installation handbook is top notch.

You get to control exactly what features each package is compiled with, so no bloat at all.

KDE 6 just landed too!

Linux is whatever the Linux Mark Institute says it is.

Let me preface this by saying I don't see the value of 99% of NFTs either, but it is technically possible to make one that stores the image on the blockchain or on IPFS. Most don't, obviously, but it is possible.

Dwarf Fortress.

This requires an Apple iPhone XR or newer, as the face scan utilizes the TrueDepth sensor.

I'd rather take a plaster mold of my face than have to use a specific phone to order a VR headset.

Ha, abusing fork for asynchronous saves is clever. I hope they are aware of the following restriction:

After a fork() in a multithreaded program, the child can safely call only async-signal-safe functions (see signal-safety(7)) until such time as it calls execve(2).

Right? That's the thing. Car thieves don't care if the tool is illegal; they're already planning on stealing a car.

If you make the tool illegal, you're just making it harder for security experts who do care about the law.

Yes we should allow them, because the problem isn't that this tool is available. The problem is that cars and other devices aren't more secure.

If you broke into a bank vault with a screwdriver, you don't ban screwdrivers; you get mad at the bank.

I'd like Gentoo ebuilds to run in a fully isolated namespace/container with only the dependencies explicitly enabled by portage configuration. Something like a mix of nix but with the ebuild syntax.
