  • Which is exactly why the US isn't going to carpet bomb their own territory. One, ruling over a rubble-laden wasteland isn't very appealing. Destroying your own infrastructure isn't good for GDP. Two, soldiers are going to have a lot harder time bombing their own homeland, regardless of how well trained they are.

  • The problems I've had with my RPis have all revolved around the fragility of their SD storage. I got burned one too many times trying to host something important in my house with these things, just for them to get corrupted and lose everything. Backing up these systems was its own nightmare, which failed as much as it succeeded.

  • Unfortunately it inevitable. If a publicly traded company exists, it will have to extract more and more and more until this kind of rent-seeking model happens. And if a company is private, it will eventually go public. And even if you truly believe in a company's owner to not sell out, eventually they will die and the company will go public or get sold. Eventually, money always wins.

  • I wonder if SD 1.5 would be better suited to this Where's Waldo style, since generating scenes over 512x512 causes it to start repeating itself, with elements flowing from one 512 region to another. If someone with a ton of VRAM wants to test that theory for me, I'd appreciate it!

  • How do I make contributors to my project transfer copyright to me?

    Jump

  • I don't think you've properly thought through the consequences of not considering IP rights for projects with a significant number of contributors. There are absolutely situations in which having a single IP holder is advantageous to having multiple IP holders. Large open source projects might find governance hard when they're hamstrung by getting consensus from hundreds or thousands of contributors.

    And yes, I did read the title and the post. I understood it.

  • Copyright and license agreements are not at all the same thing. And just because something is "open source" doesn't mean that it is free of copyright.

  • If my understanding of the GPL is correct, you can definitely build it yourself and publish it on fdroid. Can't use the same name or any trademarks noti has, though.

  • There is a disproportionate amount of wealth concentrated in the older generation and those who will inherit it will probably be even worse with that money than the last generation.

    Don't worry, this isn't going to happen. Inheritance, I mean. Almost all of that generations wealth is going to be eaten by elder care. At $10k per month, and zero of that being covered by Medicare until you're basically destitute, nursing homes are going to demolish that store of wealth and their descendants will be left with nothing.

  • What copyright notice should I put on my FOSS website?

    Jump

  • It wouldn't be FOSS because a landing page with nothing but content isn't software. I'm referring to the site at blender.org vs the source code for an application at a git repository.

  • What copyright notice should I put on my FOSS website?

    Jump

  • I would suggest actually naming the license under which it is released if you're talking about the website that is generated by your software. If you're talking about the content of a website describing your project, like a landing page or something like that, I'd either attribute copyright to who wrote the content, or release it under a Creative Commons license such as CC-BY-NC.

  • When do you think violence is justified?

    Jump

  • It's always a matter of degrees. The bigger the injustice, the more violence is justified to rectify it. It is in the disproportionality, in my view, where the problem arises.

    Never forget that humans are just barely evolved apes. Sometimes a swift knock to the head is required to activate those neural pathways to discourage anti-social behavior. Not always, but also not never. Claiming otherwise is just self-aggrandizing moralization that people use to make themselves sound and feel superior.
