Commercial use is not the issue. That’s already allowed but incentives. If you don’t enforce payment it won’t happen, because that’s whats happening now. Paying companies are called sponsors and that’s fine. They pay in money or developer hours to contribute. If you enforce payment, companies get preferential treatment, because why would you not prioritize payed for changes over those for regular free tier users. And even then, there exists freemium software already with extra repositories for paying customers. So even that model already exists. Im really not looking forward to using jailbroken cracked open source software because someone broke the licensing mechanism again that should enforce some users paying. Also with payment comes automatically a lack of anonymous usage, so now you need to register with your clear name to prove you are not a company and entitled to free use of the packages. And while we are at it, let’s add age and sex verification to any free software to be sure we know all about your porn fetish as well… Free software works because it is free as in freedom. No hurdles no bullshit TOS, just download and use and not even any requirement to contribute.

Can you maybe give some detail on the process? My soon to be ex wife and mother of my children has this, I’m sure of it. Maybe some insight into the process might help convince her to try therapy instead of destroying our family.

Anybody remember the story how the US government created Julian Assange the Wikileaks warrior? They slashed his funding for his phd research and declared it all secret.

This title sounds like nonsense until you read the article. They reason market saturation happens when all power grid capacity is used up by GPUs in service. So increasing efficiency gives a new modernizing incentive to data center operators. So nvidia can keep out-producing the market and keep deprecation cycles going.

And he was a linguist too, so he probably knew how he wanted to words to be pronounced in his world.

Its called anxious avoidant type binding disorder and it’s actually treatable pretty well if you want to change that. It happens if your parents are unable to give you emotional care if you asked for it as a young kid.

All my free software is under MIT license. But charging money for using my software would entail license changes and would make the software less free and incentives change to do things that make money instead of sound software.

Then it wouldn’t be free as in FOSS. Also the incentives change and now we get enshittification.

Don’t forget about the magic number 21 in the States. Its legal in most States though AFAIK.

It is, but many EU standards are a carbon copy of well established standards in Germany.

My feelings on elon musk are somewhat tragic. Started not bad but went somewhere that looks like mental illness and drug abuse.

Marine blue, dirty white and a snot like yellow and black

Is it normal that it doesn’t move at all for me? tried all the tricks, like not looking directly at it. Displayed it full size, looked directly at it. Even at the “snakes” tongues… Nothing.

Political mouthpiece and a opportunist living a life full of contradictions.

You might be under the impression ER doctors get enough sleep or really care about anything but the legal implication who might but pay or get him a hippaa violation.

Its not my reasoning, its the VDE’s which makes the rules for most of the EU standards. The risk does not come from the high voltage but how much current/power is flowing through there. Cables with too much power for the cable square will heat up the cable and the solder will melt. Especially in home installation scenarios this is a problem AFAIK.

The power bars with that little insulation assumes the bars will never move and neither wont the cables and neither will there be more humidity than normal and never more power (watts) than normal etc. Looks like you wouldn’t want to look at that thing wrong.

Edit: soldered connections on high voltage is a big no no. Wouldn’t be legal in Europe. Needs to be clamped or screwed.

Not an electrician per se, but an electrical engineer of sorts. ;)

I actually think lanterns writing is quite good.

Had a rowing Buddy that would make “death in Stalingrad”: standard coffee drip machine. Put in powdered coffee and fill with vodka. Both coffee and vodka as cheap as humanly possible. Let her rip and “enjoy”. Worst coffee experience I ever had. Like worse than having the shits and vomiting at the same time.
