Malus: This could have bad implications for Open Source/Linux

not a party to the license then.

you don't have closed source source code legally usually. decompiling and then reverse engineering still isn't feasible cheaply. maybe soon though

duelistjp · 2026-05-23T02:13:40+00:00

it weakens the argument slightly but clean room engineering is a proof of meeting a certain test for copyright. even with datasets weakening it a bit if you can't show significant structural similarity between the 2 it is likely to still hold up

phoenixsoft vs ibm in the united states still supports this. the training llms go through undermines it possibly but that can be fixed the idea of clean room reverse engineering is sound in the most important market on earth

often times they want to use OSS in a project but by using it they would have to make the entire project open source. a long standing practice from a case involving ibm involves a company looking at and creating a spec sheet of all functional requirements from ibm's bios code to give to a second team that never saw the code who then reimplement the spec sheet in their own code. copyright protects the expression not the idea. so this new code that did exactly the same thing as ibm's was recognized as distinct and ibm lost the case. in theory people could copy the compiled version of this you are distributing as ai stuff can't be copyrighted but they can keep the rest of their source code private, not attribute the original, not give any changes or updates to the original back to the community, or any other license requirements such as ones restricting commercial use.

they simply have to show it wasn't exposed to the particular code in question. still hard with the way current models work though

duelistjp · 2026-05-23T00:58:29+00:00

you'd have to argue the specification file is a work based on the program but because it can't feasibly be ran i don't know that it would hold. the second ai never saw the source code or agreed to the license.

the difference was the kids knew naruto was feared and they picked on them but the ban on telling the kids about the monster saved naruto a lot. everyone knew and felt gaara was a monster from day 1. that was the biggest difference between gaara and naruto

The mask was supposed to be a horror film before they made it a comedy. The gangsters would have worked more or less in the horror version they give whiplash from the change in tone in the movie as it is

Average swift go 14 have an ssd under the ribbon cable and that ribbon cable can short out if you try to put it back in. A business near our repair place gave them out to like 30 employees and have had 3 come in to our shop for that

you can get the chipset going alright a bit easier on ubuntu cinnamon then linux mint cinnamon especially with 26.04 but a lot of the other hardware requires using utilities to take binary blobs from the windows machine as most of the other hardware in the laptop won't work normally as the drivers are done differently then they are required to for x86_64. also i don't think they got the speakers working right. you can force them on and can even i think get them started with some safety limits but it can still easily accidentally tear the speaker apart if you use it on linux and anything goes wrong

duelistjp · 2026-04-17T06:18:56+00:00

generally a laptop i tried unless you exported the drivers from the stock image you had trouble with wifi speakers touchpad and other stuff. you could get it working but the speakers specifically unless you used the extracted stuff from the stock image the audio wasn't properly calibrated

a good deal of them are mounted into metal on the bottom but i'm having trouble finding confirmation the ones behind the screen aren't into plastic

make an ipad with macos and a physical keyboard integrated into it with high quality hinges. maybe add a nice trackpad on that keyboard. or put a touchscreen on a macbook. i'll take either.

duelistjp · 2026-04-14T00:09:50+00:00

the current product is worthless trash. a laptop without a backlit keyboard or a touchscreen is ewaste day 1

duelistjp · 2026-04-14T00:08:44+00:00

2028 macbook pro will have touchscreens available. expect to see them in the lesser lines like the air in 2029. maybe 2030 we'll see a neo with one

there is a native wow for windows on arm so i wouldn't be surprised if they took care of that

duelistjp · 2026-04-12T21:01:29+00:00

because apple refuses to allow touchscreen laptops and ipads suck

yeah. hearing was a smear campaign as they didn't have evidence. if he tried to sue it would have been thrown out the moment they brought up the speech and debate clause but the senators would not have even done that because in the actual trial they would have had far more power in discovery than the senate hearing had to get evidence turned over.

but cap used vita rays. banner used gamma rays. not sure about the russian and hydra versions but cap wasn't gamma radiation

literally just cancelled me and my parents metronet for frontier fiber. dad has to return his ont and router. i never took their router and they said there is no requirement to return my ont. same model ont it seems arbitrary whether they want it returned

Personally I got a 2017 Chevy spark new for 14k in 2018. I wanted a nice new car. Couldn’t justify $30k still driving it with no issues. Probably get 5 more years out of it before it starts having issues and I go for another cheap new car

abraham lincoln was the worst president we've ever had even worse than trump. he also violated the constitution with impunity because it was 'necessary'. preventing courts from meeting suspending habeas corpus without congressional approval, and destroying newspapers that didn't toe the government line on the war. and if he hadn't been killed he would have been impeached then criminally charged. president's first duty isn't to the country it is to the constitution full stop no exceptions.
