There are rights and responsibilities associated with a proprietary model… and IMO you (and your permissive government) should not be overriding those rights for your own short-sighted benefit.

Kind of sounds like you misunderstood the initiative to be honest. This only affects games which have been abandoned by the developer, the proprietary model stays perfectly intact as long as you actually keep selling your games.

Not familiar enough with this particular project to know, but a quick glance at the commit log shows some overlap in commit authors, so I guess there is at least some level of sharing happening, probably just not through merges.

But being familiar with this kind of project in general, the branches will probably never be fully merged even in the future, just doesn’t make much sense because they are server software targeting very different versions of a game client. There are also two other branches, but they “only” diverged by like one or two thousand commits so far.

Must be some setting on your end, I’m getting offered translations on that page as well (stable release).

Two things I could think of, either you haven’t set it to always offer translations or your browser is set to simplified Chinese.

Another thing, you can select some text, right-click the selection, and there will be a translation option there. After you used that there will be a button for “translate the whole page” in the translation popup.

Oh also you can download more languages through the settings (general settings page, right below browser language).

Know what you mean, would probably be a worthwhile feature request to make on the bug tracker.

You can change the zone size by dragging the border with the mouse while you are in the editing mode.

Edit: so drag to 1/3 and 2/3 roughly, split the bigger field again.

I see you figured it out. Will add an explanation to my post as well, if you hadn’t deleted your reply I would have answered that instead. :)

You have to hold the Shift key while moving a window for it to snap into the tiles you set up. If you just move them normally they have a different snapping behaviour like what you described.

Edit: So as the deleted reply was probably asking, this is how it works in full. If you have the KDE Plasma desktop environment after a certain version (I wanna say 5.6-ish?) you can do the following:

1. Press Windows+T, or as we Linux nerds like to call it Meta+T, to configure your “tiling zones” on your monitors.
2. Hold Shift+LeftClick on the title bar of a window to move them into the “tiling zones” you set up.

Discoverability on this sucks (as much of the Plasma desktop does) but it’s a pretty cool feature.

Read the policies yourself

I suggest reading this diff to the FAQs instead, paints a much clearer picture:

https://github.com/mozilla/bedrock/commit/d459addab846d8144b61939b7f4310eb80c5470e

Basically removes all the language about not selling data and some about privacy. Down in the comments someone argues this is due to a narrow legal definition of that language in certain jurisdictions, but that couldn’t sound more like an empty excuse if they tried. Actually all the reactions from Mozilla I have seen on this so far sound like pure corpo PR bullshit to me.

You and i read different things.

Apparently we did.

I hated how he worded them, but his arguments at greppable and understandable are valid arguments that go beyond rust and if he can read it or not or refuses to.

I’m failing to see how Rust code is not greppable unless you don’t speak Rust.

Mixing languages in a part of a project brings complexity and is often a huge ass nono because it makes things unreadable and hard to manage on a large scale.

An argument which I would acknowledge, but if the decision to do this has been made by the group it still is weird to see it blocked by an individual.

He also argues that a c interface exists to connect 2 parts of a system. The person that changes the interface should not have to alter the users of that interface, […] So if he changes the interface, the rust team will need to fix it, specially since they are the minority.

Nobody asked Hellwig to do this, in fact Krummrich said several times they would maintain the interface consuming the C code themselves. They just want one common interface for all Rust drivers, instead of replicating the same code in each driver. Which Hellwig never gives a substantial reply to.

That also doesnt mean he can change it in whatever way without worry, it is an interface change, that needs discussions and approvals ahead of time ofc.

Again not how I’m reading that thread. As Krummrich put it:

Surely you can expect maintainers of the Rust abstraction to help with integrating API changes – this isn’t different compared to driver / component maintainers helping with integrating fundamental API changes for their affected driver / component, like you’ve mentioned videobuf2-dma stuff.

How do you figure?

The only two “technical” arguments I could see were firstly that code should

[remain] greppable and maintainable

which unless I’m missing something boils down to “I don’t speak Rust”, and secondly that

The only reason Linux managed to survive so long is by not having internal boundaries, and adding another language complely breaks this

which unless I’m missing something boils down to “I don’t speak Rust”, because ain’t nobody trying to add any other languages to the Linux code base.

Surely this can’t be the “decent technical reasoning” you are referring to? I have to admit I don’t follow kernel development that closely, but I was under the impression that integrating Rust into the code base was a long discussed initiative having the “official” blessing of the higher ups among the maintainers by now, so it seems odd to see it opposed in such harsh terms by a subsystem maintainer here:

I absolutely support using Rust in new codebase, but I do not at all in Linux.

Maybe you are confusing this with the news from a year ago that Steam doesn’t support Windows 7 and 8 anymore?

By the way MS-support for 7 ended in 2015, so that’s 9 more years of Steam support after updates from MS stopped. I’d count on Steam working on Windows 10 for years to come.

Well if anything breaks I suspect my add/script blockers first and in like 9/10 cases that’s correct. Had turned fingerprinting resistance on since making that comment three weeks ago, and so far I didn’t run into any problems beyond theming. Although I admittedly only frequent a small set of websites.

Oh it wasn’t that bad. You just had to understand rules, models, layouts, variants, and options. Oh and then of course key codes, syms, maps, states, and modifiers. Oh and then…

Kidding aside though, in this particular case it would have been relatively simple:

If you wanted to enable the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace sequence to kill the X server by default, you could create a configuration snippet /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/90-zap.conf containing:

Section "InputClass"
    Identifier "keyboard defaults"
    MatchIsKeyboard "on"

    Option "XKbOptions" "terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp"
EndSection

This would be equivalent to running the shell command:

setxkbmap -option "terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp"

Influenza

• There are no known serious side effects in regard to Influenza vaccination which can be linked to the vaccine itself

Now that’s just wrong:

In patients with H[eart]F[ailure], influenza vaccination was associated with a reduced risk of both all-cause and cardiovascular death after extensive adjustment for confounders. Frequent vaccination and vaccination earlier in the year were associated with larger reductions in the risk of death compared with intermittent and late vaccination.

SCNR, you didn’t specify adverse side effects. :P

I found this in about:config, defaults to true apparently: privacy.resistFingerprinting.randomDataOnCanvasExtract

But you have to enable privacy.resistFingerprinting for it to work first. I enabled that and now the EFF test says “randomized” for the hashes but also Lemmy went from dark to light theme somehow.

Again if you want to see it like that, fine. Doesn’t change the fact that people from these countries mean something different than you when they say inciting violence is outlawed. They are obviously referring to their specific laws, that use that specific language, in this case verbatim. The “oh but there are conditionals in that law” bit you are doing here isn’t the gotcha you seem to think it is. We are aware of that. And it’s not relevant to the original question of there being potential legal consequences for the people hosting the lemmy world instance. So what is even your point?

Look if you want to apply an overly broad definition of violent speech to score some weird semantic point, be my guest. But the original point upthread was that incitement to violence specifically, not “violent speech” in general, is outlawed in many countries, among them those that are hosting the .world instance. And that point is very much correct.

Which is all beside my original point, which was that the §130 StGB does not work like you boldly claimed it does.

What? You have just been given two example paragraphs that create a legal responsibility for the German executive to shut down violent speech. Yes, only certain kinds of violent speech as you put it in the sibling thread, but that still falsifies this statement.

What the fuck does that have to do with CEOs being a designated group or not?

But to answer your question, it depends. Specifically if you advocate for “arbitrary measures” against criminals and do it “in a manner likely to disturb the public peace” then it would be illegal under §130 StGB. Barring this caveat though it would be legal.
