Assuming “EU” means “European Union” (the acronym can stand for other things too): if you don’t put “Europe” or “European Union” in the title or sidebar, no one who searches for these things is ever going to find this community.

also there is already !EuropeanUnion@europe.pub

IRC still exists, the closest FOSS IRC client to mIRC is KVIrc.

The closest thing to a modernized IRC is Matrix.

a desktop version of a web version of a desktop app? talk about going full circle :D

It’s an expansion to say that LLM training constitutes a derivative work. You are of course entitled to your opinion that it should be the case; all I can say to that is that in the 2000s and 2010s nearly everyone on the Internet tended to argue for more limitations, not further expansions, of copyright law, and I wonder what happened to that attitude.

and yet it is still a legally unsettled question whether LLM training requires a copyright license at all; and it is my opinion that no one should want that to be the case, why would people on the Internet want to argue for an expansion of copyright law?

hmmm I see; could not at least aimbots still be detected on the server side?

I’m not a gaming dev, but a full-stack web dev; is it not common sense that data needs to be validated on the server side, not client? I don’t really get why client-side “anti-cheat” is a thing, but may be missing something.

depends on what you want to do with your computer? If you want to deeply get into the internals of your computer, including writing your own software, then you’ll probably have to touch the terminal at some point. If all you want to do is web browsing or photo editing or something, then you might never need it.

It’s one of the best FOSS games I know. That is not a very high bar, admittedly; I suggest trying I out.

It doesn’t, but I’m curious too.

Notepad: Notepad++ or Visual Studio Code. Or if you like terminal windows: https://github.com/microsoft/edit

Paint: https://www.pinta-project.com/ seems to have Windows builds.

Calculator: https://qalculate.github.io/ is the best I know of.

then I have good news for you: https://linuxiac.com/ladybird-browser-team-selects-swift-as-preferred-language/

also several places at which I’ve worked on business-internal software, including my current job

GitLab, I am not sure if their own installation hits all points (depends on what you define as “big tech involvement” maybe), but if you self-host it, certainly.

normally yes, you should use a better app if it doesn’t (or maybe your instance disabled downvotes)

I notice there is no mention of a license, so this is not actually open source.

I had a phase in my teenage years when I tried to do as much as I could with the keyboard. Nowadays I use too many different pieces of software for me to be able to remember all key combinations everywhere, so I’ve grown out of that.

!photography@fedia.io meanwhile seems to mostly be getting posts from microbloggers/pixelfed people who use the hashtag “photography”, somehow the backend of that instance automatically posts them to that community, not 100% sure why that is happening

and some games like SuperTuxKart are playable

shows a screenshot of SuperTux, an entirely different game

If they are using someone else’s GPL code and adding requirements like that, then yes, that is infringement.
