But can you prove that this solution wouldn’t work on a 4 dimensions cube?

Considering how many times France told the US to go fuck themselves (Irak, Iran, its own nuclear weapons, among others), I think we can consider it pretty independent.

Personally, I wouldn’t call it “viral” if it does not propagate to other files. It may create a confusion.
On the other hand, I don’t think there is an agreed upon terminology to describe it, so if my explanation help someone better understand the concept, I’m all good.

I think you misunderstood what “viral” mean in that context.

If a file, under GPL, is added to a project, the whole project becomes dual licensed under the original licence plus GPL, which propagate to the whole project, like a virus. I know comparing it to something like a virus sound derogative, but this is the best way to describe its effect.

If a file, under MPL, is added to a project, the project do not become MPL, only the added part is. Said project cannot change the MPL licensed part to another licence, but still can build anything it wish using it.

Globally, a GPL licensed project protects the user more, but also prevent the devs from doing a lot of thing, which MPL does not.

In the end, this is the devs freedom to chose which licence they wish to publish their code under, not ours.

The only one that wouldn’t would be SUSE. Headquarters in Luxembourg, privately owned by a Swedish investment firm.

That field is here to allow the support of it, not to make it required everywhere.

Seatbelts isn’t required everywhere, but car maker won’t make two version of a car, one that support seatbelts, and one that doesn’t. They will make one model, with the required attach points to install a seatbelt, and install an actual seatbelt only on cars that goes somewhere where it is mandatory.

Here we are in a similar situation. That filed is here to make of possible for OS to support that law, but it doesn’t mean we’ll all have to conform to that law unless you live in a country that have said law.

An open source software is, by law, the maintainer’s (which can be an individual, or a group of persons) property. It is said maintainer who has the right to grant you any kind of license over what he owns.

In the case of an open-source project, that license is very permissive, true, but if you take the time to read any of those, you will always see :

• A provision indicating that the owners grants that licence within the limits of the applicable laws
• Sometimes a provision indicating under which juridiction said license is granted. If not, the user local laws are the ones used.

Source : the fucking law and the fucking licenses. And my friend, which happens to be a lawyer specialized in intellectual property laws.

Open-sourcing a software doesn’t make it magically immune to laws.

It’s a fucking field. Why is everyone loosing his mind over it? It’s not like it is required, nor will it prevent you to do anything if you put data in (except not being able to change it later).

If you have to complain, complain about the law, not poor guy that has to add it, by law.

Because heat diffuse at a limited rate. More heat won’t magically make it faster.
Increasing the heat will continue cooking an already heat soaked layer, unable to radiate that heat to the inner layer fast enough.
At best you’ll get an overcooked exterior, at worst a carbonized one. In both case, the inner layer will be barely warm, and raw, of course.

France has a lot of spy satellites. Part of why they didn’t follow the US in Irak.

I think there is multiple factors here.

First, Europe wasn’t a major weapon producer, and ramping up production takes time. You have to recruit people, teach them, and buy heavy machinery, which also take time to produce.

Secondly, Europe isn’t as unified as the US. It formed around the idea of preventing future wars, and on that aspect it worked spectacularly well. There was no war between EU countries since WW2. But cultural differences are still there, and its institutions require a consensus, not a majority. So it is hard to take immediate decision. Ironically, USA withdrawal is what made the consensus easier to reach, because major countries that were reticent became aware that they had to act now or fold to Putin.

But once you’ll br affected by a bug you may not like it as much. I reported a bug many months ago about being unable to download or visualize image from Nextcloud, and I’m yet to see any reply on my report.

For that you’ll gave to knockout the AI servers, which are probably redondant across multiple region.

LED do not have a 100% efficiency, and do produce waste heat. A lot less than an incandescence one, sure, but enough for that answer to be valid.
Well, maybe you’d better wait 10min instead of one, to make sure the led lightbulb heats enough, but still…

Well, now what’s left is just to make nuclear warheads, and maybe the Russian will be more inclined at negotiating peace.

A desktop computer cannot be used without peripheral (unless you use it as a server). They where separated from the chassis for flexibility sake, not because they were optional.
There was a time where everything was integrated into the chassis, screen included. Those were hefty beasts, loud, and hard to maintain, because when a peripheral broke, you had to service the whole unit instead of swapping the keyboard to a new one.

As for the Deck, you have everything you need for its intended use, no peripheral needed. Of course, you can add some to make it work like a PC, but in such case, is it still only a Deck ?

We could argue for ages around that, but I think it boils down to philosophy. Some prefers maximalist definition, other prefer minimalist definition. I’m obviously of the later school, and you of the former.
So, how about we agree to have different opinions on the matter, and go on our respective way, instead of throwing oil on the fire of a sterile debate ?

Also, are you a llm from like 2021?

I’m a human with an opinion you may not share, for whom English is not his primary language. So grammatical error are to be expected. Now if you can come down of your high horse and not assume anyone with whom you do not agree is a LLM, that’d be great.

It is a personal computer, it runs Linux, I recognize KDE, I can fuck around in terminal. In what ways is it not a personal computer? I don’t understand.

Try to do a spreadsheet on the deck without any accessory. It is possible, but very fastidious. It isn’t an hardware made to do personal computing (aka, a PC), it is an hardware to play game.
A PC isn’t just a software, it is also a hardware specifically made to allow various computing tasks. Calculus, graphical work of various kinds, sometimes games (which have to adapt to peripherals that weren’t made for games in mind).
A Deck is made for games first, and the various other task you may want to do have to work around its limitation. From my point of view, this cannot be called a PC.
But that’s my opinion, I won’t force anyone else to agree with me, or call them a LLM out of spite.
