I would even argue as long as someone isn’t messing with a niche distro such as KDE Neon

KDE Neon is dead because its developers found out that putting an add-on repository on top of Ubuntu is not reliable at all. That’s why KDE Linux is now in development.

A wrapper to use apt commands for rpm packages. It’s just there to help with muscle memory.

As long as AMD and Intel continue their open source drivers, I’m fine with it.

Hey GameStop. Just wondering: Where are Song of the Deep 2 and 3? Can’t you count to 3?

Reaper and Bitwig Studio are familiar apps for many audio producers.

At the very least go back the first English version of the article chain.

At the very least

What you implied is that if a story originally came from a non-English source then it’s automatically suspect.

No, I didn’t. Learn to read. I stressed the regurgitation of a regurgitation of a regurgitation as a “source”.

Professional alternatives exist.

Have you ever noticed how vendors who ship computers with Linux often do so at the same or greater cost than Windows?

Yeah… Even when going to Linux exclusively, it’s usually better to pick the Windows device.

As long as they don’t need nividia drivers.

Luckily NVidia is rather selling their GPUs to AI datacenters than to home consumers.

True. Wasn’t meant as a comprehensive list. 😁

Yeah, people need to get with the times. Flatpak exists since 10 years and smashed through the roof with Steam Deck (4 years).

What I find funny and I realized it a bunch of years ago: whenever consumers have actual choice of an alternative product and aren’t forced into the Microsoft product because of Microsoft’s monopolies, people tend to pick the competition.

Windows Phone: consumers chose Android and iPhone.

Xbox: consumers chose PlayStation and Nintendo.

Handheld gaming PC: Steam Deck.

Chat (MSN, Skype,…): WhatsApp and a plethora of alternatives. (Businesses use Teams because of Office monopoly.)

Edge browser: Chrome.

WMA: MP3.

Games shop (Xbox/Microsoft Store): Steam.

Feels free to post Mandarin language news in traditional script in the appropriate community. The language used in the info bar is the metric I’d suggest.

[Update - 12/26/2025] - Taiwanese outlet, CNA, has received a statement from ASUS regarding the DRAM rumor and stated that it currently has no plans to invest in a memory wafer fab.

Lesson hopefully learned: Don’t link to the regurgitation of a regurgitation of a regurgitation of a Persian language article. At the very least go back the first English version of the article chain.

Didn’t realize Mattermost still existed.

Nature is healing.

Nah, they’re lying. They’ll just cover their tracks better in the future.

Do you expect copyright laws to mention every single type of transformative work acceptable? You are being purposely ignorant.

I asked nicely to provide a quote that machine generation is also covered that you couldn’t provide and now feels the need to lash out.

And yes, I absolutely expect that machine generation is explicitly mentioned for the simple fact that right now machine generated anything is not copyrightable at all. A computer isn’t smart, a computer isn’t creative. Its output doesn’t pass the threshold of originality, as such there is no creative transformation happening, as there is with reinterpretations of songs.

What is copyrightable are the works that served as training set, therefore there absolutely has to be an explicit mention somewhere that machine generated works do not simply pass the original copyright into the generated work, just like how a human writes source code and the compiled executable is still the human author’s work.

Edit: Downvotes instead of arguments. Pathetic.

Not a single line in your comment offers anything that machine generation, which is not at all human creative work, falls under fair use.

Please quote me the line where this covers machine generation as well? I’d love to sell Google translated Harry Potter books for being transformative work. Maybe I can transform the lastest movie releases to MKV and sell those.
