Yes, living in a country with a good network of big steel boxes, I sometimes also use them to get to my destination. A lot of the times they are rather full so I have to stand and stare into the air.
But mostly I am using my metal bars on two wheels so that I am not protected from nature and reach my destination equally fast, but full of sweat. But safe from people entering my personal space and spitting their illnesses into my face.

Will, better to sit in a steel box by yourself than sit in a steel box with a lot of other people and get sick.

It’s nice that you view it differently, but open source has a clear definition. And with this change it will not use a Open Source license anymore.

As I saw in another post:

- Comment on Pharmaceutical Commercials (sound on!) 2 months ago:
I did search Google how to make a GIF with sound! But all the tools that I found only make mp4s instead of gifs. And it seems even Wikipedia says that a GIF can only contain images and no sound 🤔

- Comment on New Mastodon feature will highlight writers and journalists that are active on the fediverse when their articles are being shared 4 months ago:
That’s why they are starting only with verified sites. To combat the spam feature. But of course, they are creating a closed system with that. Which also is not the best
- Comment on Facebook and Instagram’s “pay or consent” ad model violates the DMA, says the EU 4 months ago:
That’s correct. But this is only the case because of the DMA, mit the Gdpr
- Comment on Facebook and Instagram’s “pay or consent” ad model violates the DMA, says the EU 4 months ago:
No.
- the Facebook case: DMA/ digital markets act. This case is only regarding the choice between personalisation or paying to access the service. Only for really big patients deemed to be gatekeepers. There are only five at the moment: digital-markets-act.ec.europa.eu/gatekeepers_en
- showing ads that are personalized, or any other things where they use information about you: Gdpr. You have to allow it.
- showing you ads that are not personalized: completely legal. Netflix does the same I think. Also Amazon prime.
- Comment on Facebook and Instagram’s “pay or consent” ad model violates the DMA, says the EU 4 months ago:
IANAL, but: Gdpr only says that they cannot require you to sell your data to use a service. It does not say anything about paying with money. So this seems legal to me
