my only issue with mint is that full version upgrades are still a hassle. if that’s something that bothers you, you could switch to something else. otherwise, just keep on keeping on.

exactly.


“closer ties” is a statement of intent. “associate member” is a category of member.


yes. all of europe is doing that.


the eu doesn’t have anything called “associate membership” so if this passed they would have had to actually define what that means. makes sense to change the wording to something less formal but equally signifying.


need it to be a hierarchical thing? otherwise just cp -vur src/ dst/ >> files.txt && sort -bdufo files.txt files.txt and look in the file.
…yeeeees? that’s what i said that started this entire thread.
…compiled? it’s all written in x86-specific assembly language. you’d have to rewrite it from scratch.
source available != open source. unless explicitly rejected by the creator through a license or waiver, all the immaterial rights of any work still rest with them.
i get that it’s terry, but just saying “it’s open source” feels a lot like the “i declare bankruptcy” bit. he didn’t actually waive any rights there.
odd non-sequitur. is it still leaky?
preaching to the choir. useful for newbies though
yeah mit requires attribution, fair.
the entire reason the osi got started was because they (mainly esr) felt the gpl was too restrictive.
you can if it’s mit, cc0, or unlicense.
public domain generally means you can’t relicense or copyright works using it. the osi doesn’t like that. the gpl is also not open source for the same reason.
also oh god V is still around?
in the best case it’s that, and you wonder why it’s not automatic. in the worst case half the packages on the system just brick themselves.
