Poe's Law, some people actually believe what you're saying.

/s exists for a reason on the internet, where toneless text reigns supreme.

Maybe like a 2.

Thank you. It needed to be said.

Sort of a remake, sort of a prequel.

To ensure compatibility, you said you had a local bike shop... you should probably go there and get your brakes swapped with whatever you're excited for, that they can order in.

Plus, support local, of course.

I do not believe Luke was a Sith Lord. XD

Weaker copyleft. Doesn't guarantee freedom the way GPL does.

If someone were to make a proprietary derivative using the MIT licensed code, that would be allowed. Their source code changes aren't required to be shared and licensed under a FLOSS license.

GPL on the other hand, guarantees (legally, not always in practice) that any derivatives are to be licensed the same way, so they must remain FLOSS.

I quite like what Cory Doctorow has to say about it. (Author of Little Brother, coiner of the term "enshittification" (and much much more obviously))

Yes! He spread(s) a bunch of vaccine misinformation.

Shaun had the best distillation of what I could find. I was glad someone else had noticed his BS. It was driving me crazy when people shared some of his vaccine specific clips with me.

Agreed. Except the part about 4:3 video. That's just upsetting to think about. "Widescreen" (anywhere from 16:9 to the 1.85:1 often used in movies) is acceptable, 4:3 is far too cramped for a pleasant viewing experience.

If you're watching on anything other than certain laptop screens, you're likely to have pillarboxing which is just wasted space that could be beautiful landscapes, helpful information, or artistic framing.
