Are current laws against harassment insufficient?

That doesn’t have anything to do with whether it’s open-source or not.

The headline seems to mean 81% of generation and storage capacity. When the article talks about battery storage, it only says storage, not generation.

I can’t think of any reason the backend can’t be open-source too.

Yes. A perpetual license just means no fixed end date, not that it’s irrevocable or interminable.

You can probably get away with continuing to use ESXi free licenses even commercially, you just won’t have support. And at home, nothing is going to stop existing versions from working.

Incidentally, assuming I found the right license agreement: https://www.vmware.com/content/dam/digitalmarketing/vmware/en/pdf/downloads/eula/universal_eula.pdf

It doesn’t actually say it’s perpetual. It only says “The term of this EULA begins on Delivery of the Software and continues until this EULA is terminated in accordance with this Section 9”, but that section only covers termination for cause or insolvency, there is no provision for termination at VMware’s discretion. So, while I’m not a lawyer, it definitely sounds like you can continue using ESXi free.

Actually, reading further, I think the applicable license is this one: https://www.vmware.com/vmware-general-terms.html

But that one has even less language about license term and termination. Although it does define “perpetual license” as “a license to the Software with a perpetual term”, again not irrevocable or interminable.

That one was posted by a spambot, which a lot of people have blocked.

I missed the word “server” every time and thought it was a client, and spent far too long trying to figure out how you’d play Minecraft in Bash. Text based? ASCII graphics?

Increase account creation restrictions (you are here)

Effortlessly? No hiccups? The Apollo program alone cost $178 billion 2022 dollars between 1961 and 1972. And I’m pretty sure that they had at least one hiccup. And that doesn’t even count the other programs like Mercury or Gemini.

I’ve been using Alma for a while and been happy with it. Like RHEL types, it’s slightly behind on versioning, but that’s by design.

No, but it’s a hell of a lot easier to put huge language datasets into the machine learning blender and get a model out, instead of manually programming every conceivable linguistic construction.

Not always. I’ve seen Linux systems keep running, and open programs work, until they need something from disk, and then either they throw an error or crash.

Unlikely. I’ve used this with moderate success when I needed to run two Discord accounts: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.oasisfeng.island

But I think it partially just uses the builtin Android profiles functionality.

how does the move to the 365 suite impact the ability to use and develop free/libre open source software?

It doesn’t.

how are the impacts of the integrated 365 suite different than the old installed suite?

In terms of software development, there are none.

Regardless, people doing open source development and use probably aren’t using Office in the first place.

Storage media doesn’t make a difference here. You can partition a spinning drive, an SSD, NVRAM, phase change storage, hell even magnetic core if you have enough of it.

It also depends on how you did the partitioning. A full partitioning program like gparted will intelligently move and resize partitions. But even if you blindly rewrote a partition table, if you did something like take a 100gb partition, changed it to 50gb, and added a 50gb partition after it, as long as the filesystem has only used that first 50gb, nothing bad will happen. A partition table just says “partition starts here, ends here”.

Just look at the output of fdisk:

Disk /dev/sda: 100 GiB, 107374182400 bytes, 209715200 sectors

I think we did.

But it was added to base Windows in XP anyway.

Windows has had native unzip support since Microsoft Plus! 98 added it to Windows 98 in 1998.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Plus!#:~:text=ZIP file integration with Windows Explorer was first introduced with this version under the name of "compressed folders".

Gizmodo, and all the Gawker, G/O Media brands, have been trash for years. If I was in charge here, they’d be banned.

Right. Use some kind of centralized authentication like freeipa.

For bash aliases, I just pull down a .bashrc from github gists.

tl;dr:

The standard model of coin flipping was extended by Persi Diaconis [12] who proposed that when people flip a ordinary coin, they introduce a small degree of ‘precession’ or wobble—a change in the direction of the axis of rotation throughout the coin’s trajectory. According to the Diaconis model, precession causes the coin to spend more time in the air with the initial side facing up. Consequently, the coin has a higher chance of landing on the same side as it started (i.e., ‘same-side bias’).

“Higher chance” being 50.77% to land on the same side it started from. But this varies by person; apparently some people introduce more precession than others. But even if you could figure out how to do it reliably, I wouldn’t bet the farm on it.
