Yall weren’t raised right and need to stop making fun of Trump. My mama taught me never to make fun of the mentally ill.
- Comment on Danish Ministry switching from Microsoft Office/365 to LibreOffice 2 weeks ago:
They noted that it cannot be guaranteed safe. You can clone a specific version, and perform security audits on that specific version before deployment. Is it a lot of work? Yes. But it is indeed possible.
- Comment on "Tuesday" which sounds like "twos-day" is day number 2 in the week whether you one-index and start your week on Monday *or* zero-index and start your week on Sunday. 2 weeks ago:
Should be one day, ten day, eleven day, hundred day, hundred one day, hundred ten day, and hundred eleven day

If you don’t add the power I have no context that you’re talking about power rangers
- Comment on Why there are a lot of people migrating from Windows to Linux these days? 2 weeks ago:
That doesn’t feel like the case for RHEL anymore. See my post here: lemmy.ca/post/47329016/17562982

You took a joking jab at red hat and suse a bit too seriously. But let me address at least the red hat portion of it.
IBM changed took away the Debian equivalent of RedHat: CentOS. They now have CentOS stream which is not what CentOS was – the free and open RHEL byte for byte compatible operating system. Arguably at the time, yes, I would agree with you – they were just selling enterprise services. But that’s not what it is anymore. They took away the stability of CentOS and had everyone migrate to RHEL or away. There were talks at the time that they were violating the linux license at the time. However, it was argued that they weren’t. Because they provide the source code for enterprise license customers, they did not violate the license. HOWEVER, they were cancelling enterprise licenses of people who were taking the source code to make RockyLinux and all the the other distros that came up to replace what CentOS was.
While yes, you have the freedom to do with the source code as you’d like when you have access to it, IBM is violating the spirit of what that means by throwing access to it behind an enterprise license.

I would be very interested in what you think about LMMS. It reminded me somewhat of FL Studio, but like I said I wasn’t really good at it so there may be features you’re lacking.
I have to say, the audio situation used to be a bit of a mess but it has gotten somewhat better.
- Comment on Why there are a lot of people migrating from Windows to Linux these days? 2 weeks ago:
Does LMMS still exist? There were a few other tools I used back in the day (wasn’t good at it so don’t ask for tips!)

Is it even Linux if you’re not running four terminal emulators via tmux in single user mode on a 1280x960 screen?
- Comment on Why there are a lot of people migrating from Windows to Linux these days? 2 weeks ago:
Linux is free? I think you need to have a talk with the folks over at IBM about RHEL or the folks over at EQT about SLES

Actual question: is this just bagged bales of hay? If so, why do they bag them?
- Comment on Is it morally wrong for an immigrant or naturalized citizen to "keep a low profile" and avoid speaking up against the government in order to minimize the risks of denaturalization/deportation? 2 weeks ago:
This depends entirely on your prescribed system of ethics.
Duty-based ethical systems would say yes, because you have a duty to speak out.
Point utilitarianism would say no, because the good outweighs the bad for that scenario.
The other utilitarianism of which I can’t remember the umbrella term would say yes, because it’s better for everyone if people speak out.
My understanding of Kant is that the unethical act is being performed by the government and that it is not morally wrong to keep a low profile.
TLDR: If you’re asking, the answer is no. If you’re being pedantic, the answer is “it depends”

Does this differ from emulators with which you have to supply a rom? I thought they sued for that too

That’s wild. I would have retained the copyright too, but for the purpose of suing the fuck out of people who misuse it

This here boggles my mind. Why would you discriminate against others when you yourself know what discrimination feels like?

I guess I would like to schedule a meting with the project manager and/or customer to discuss the flag specification…

I’m not advocating for removing the rainbow. You could literally “cut” a big rectangle in the middle and just have a different color background with extra things, paying homage to the original rainbow flag and having center balance. The only good thing I have to say about the chevrons are that it establishes vertical and horizontal orientation.
I’ll have to mull over your statement about being more effective that something planned from the beginning.
