Dust. Dust never changes.

The amount of work actually doesn’t matter (except when it does; especially the EU may consider it). The specific wordings might matter but that’s not immediately obvious. A dictionary is at least close enough to mere database that its protected status isn’t automatic. The more selective the dictionary is the more obviously it is protected since the selection process is an expression of creativity.

Fake entries are definitely used in practice, most likely because they move the dictionary from “probably protected but the court would have to decide” to “definitely protected”.

What they actually own the copyright to is the fake entries they added to the dictionary because mere collections of facts aren’t copyrightable.

Good to know. We initially set that network up well over a decade ago so my knowledge isn’t exactly current.

You could try Tinc but it’s fairly involved to get running. Pretty nice if you have a root server and want to get several people wired up, though. There are probably easier solutions for your use case.

In the Lost Adventures comics Sokka managed to become a Fire Nation war hero with that a very similar disguise so yeah, easy first place for him.

True, but in Republican circles that man has a reality distortion field that makes the one Steve Jobs had pale in comparison. Trump could tell them he’s the true god and Christianity is a lie and they’d scramble to find a way to rebuild their world view around that.

My guess is that when they say “Christian” they don’t mean “following some version of the Christian faith” but “a Christian fundamentalist who wants to enforce their specific version of Christianity as the state religion”.

I’m pretty sure that no American president to date is sufficiently Christian for them, nor is e.g. the pope.

Yep. I run Garuda and the main pull is that it’s a more user-friendly Arch with a lot of stuff I want to use preinstalled. I don’t really care about how XTREME it is or whether I might potentially get 1 FPS more.

All other things aside, which Logitech mouse are you talking about? Both my G Pro and my G 305 work out of the box. Logitech also advertises them as ChromeOS compatible and AFAIK the Logitech wireless dongles are USB HID compliant so seeing a Linux straight up refuse to interact with them sounds very weird.

Android already does that, no AI required. Some fairly simple math is enough.

The device first charges to 80% and holds there. It also calculates how long it will need to charge from there to full and when it will need to resume charging so that it will hit 100% just before the next alarm goes off. Then it does that.

It’s a pun on the Met Gala. Honestly, this might be the most sensible Heathcliff I’ve seen so far.

Also, Ubuntu is moving towards using snaps for everything so they’re pretty much the successor to PPAs.

Mostly yes but there’s one other option that simplifies the whole thing: Chromebooks. They’re actually pretty decent for someone who doesn’t need much beyond a browser, a mail client, and a basic office suite.

Sure, they’re tied to Google with all that entails but they can be a real option for someone like a senior who relies on relatives for tech support.

I’d love to but on my gaming rig Wine/Proton will absolutely refuse to install the Visual C++ runtime, making me unable to play most games. On another, virtually identical, Linux installation it works without issue; in fact, I have fewer weird issues like a game randomly not connecting to EOS.

I consider it karmic justice for buying Nvidia; that’s the major difference between the two systems.

(Update: The latest Wine version seems to have fixed this. I’m certainly not complaining.)

When AMD introduced the first Epyc, they marketed it with the slogan: “Nobody ever got fired for buying Intel. Until now.”

And they lived up to the boast. The Zen architecture was just that good and they’ve been improving on it ever since. Meanwhile the technology everyone assumed Intel had stored up their sleeve turned out to be underwhelming. It’s almost as bad as IA-64 vs. AMD64 and at least Intel managed to recover from that one fairly quickly.

They really need to come to with another Core if they want to stay relevant.

I use interactive rebases to clean up the history of messy branches so they can be reviewed commit by commit, with each commit representing one logical unit or type of change.

Mind you, getting those wrong is a quick way to making commits disappear into nothingness. Still useful if you’re careful. (Or you can just create a second temporary branch you can fall back onto of you need up your first once.)

Or, if the team does allow refactoring as part of an unrelated PR, have clean commits that allow me to review what you did in logical steps.

If that’s not how you worked on the change than you either rewrite the history to make it look like you did or you’ll have to start over.
