This effectively means that, if you get banned by the Bluesky company, you’re out. Sure, you could still host your own Personal Data Server, wait for a non-existent independent Relay to fetch your data and interact with users of third-party Bluesky applications. But you won’t: you’re effectively at the mercy of the Bluesky company.

Point two, and more importantly: this approach provides an “exit strategy” in the event that Bluesky “goes evil”. Right now, that’s false: parts of the social network are still centralized and it’s impossible to avoid that. But even if we limit ourselves to PDSs and Relay, the current situation is that federation is only achievable in theory and no one has done it in practice yet.

08:47 Impossible? Wake on Bluetooth w/ the LCD Deck

Was quick browsing for openwrt and found the banana pi r3.

One thing that surprised me when I was looking to upgrade my old router ith OpenWRT is if a firmware for your router supports ALL of the features/hardware of that router. In my case, Wifi support was not supported, so I had to disregard using OpenWRT as a choice.

So be sure to look carefully at the firmware that you find. I personally had just thought that if a firmware exists for your hardware that all of the major (but maybe not minor) features would be supported, and that is not always the case.

In a ‘Dad’ joke sort of way, sure, I’d agree with that.

Is this a bot or joke (or ‘yes’) response?

Hello, i have been working on an indie game similar to kenshi but in warhammer 40k universe. obviously i dont have any license or agreement. will i get in some trouble if i make it look like but different with slightly different names of places or races ?

Well the first step wouldn’t be to declare what you’re doing and ask about it on the public forum, as that can be used against you later in a court of law, if someone comes after you for infringement.

As others have mentioned, that’s a question for a lawyer.

IANAL, but if I remember correctly from reading stuff in the past, your thing has to be different enough that it doesn’t cause confusion by a purchaser when they’re trying to decide to purchase your product versus the other product.

In other words, you’d have to make enough changes that it’s easily seen as something different, not the same thing.

But again, the fact that you’ve already stated your intention here means you kind of already “sunk your ship”. But also again, IANAL, so make sure you actually speak to a lawyer.

When I see these kind of posts I can’t help but think that maybe they’re being made by people who could be astroturfing for another company and it’s OS, in a negative way, to redirect the narrative.

The problem with that meme comic is that it doesn’t state which distro the fox was using, as far as the level of supported it requires.

Everyone who uses Linux knows that there are some distros that require more ‘tender loving care’ by their users than others.

His response to Linus was interesting to read.

Oh and especially this comment further down in the conversation…

As it is, I feel like I have to waste my time checking all your patches, and I’m saying “it’s not worth it”.

I’m basically done with this. I never said I was a VFS guy and I learned a lot doing this. I had really nobody to look at my code even though most of it went to the fsdevel list. Nobody said I was doing it wrong.

Sorry to have wasted your time

You can play the vast majority of games easily on Linux right now.

I’ve been a gamer my whole life, and I currently have a Linux system and I play every game I want to play on there just fine, either through Steam and/or Bottles/Steam.
