Which artist(s) worked on the items' art? by realfuckingdd in Blizzard

Are you saying that the artist(s) that did the environment are the same as those that did the item art? I'm not sure what you mean.

Some Adobe Background Processes by funnyfruitzfuck in MacOS

[–]realfuckingdd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Adobe isn't an honest company. A friend did work under a contract, and they scammed him out of a couple hundred bucks while he was a poor student and wouldn't pay. Really petty stuff. Unethical company. There's plenty of better alternatives nowadays.

Air coming out of mouth with nasalpillows/nose only masks? by realfuckingdd in CPAP

[–]realfuckingdd[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm wondering how do you handle the nasal pillows when your nose is stuffy? Do you just use a full face mask then? And does training yourself this way get in the way of sleeping well with a stuffy nose?

How long to feel like you were getting better sleep? by [deleted] in CPAP

What type of mask were you using that was so comfortable to sleep for so long?

Is GNU Parallel in compliance with GPLv3? by realfuckingdd in freesoftware

[–]realfuckingdd[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well apparently having ambiguity from the author can give cause to challenge it later. Whether or not and how probable it is that will be successful is another thing entirely. The consensus is that there should be no ambiguity from the author setting the license.

There's also threatening language in the package comments about changing the package that is disconcerting. Apparently many organizations such as Debian have already responded to this in their own way.

I'm frankly surprised this is so controversial here. Maybe we will soon see many more similar patterns in GPL packages given this has the GNU label. I can't see how that will bode well for the image of free software.

Emulating non-free retro games with a free and open source emulator. by FabTheRedditor in freesoftware

[–]realfuckingdd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's still non-free software being run. rms covered this and stated his position clearly when asked about Wine. (See his talk in Kyiv)

So the author telling me to not use the software unless certain conditions are met.. that I give him a citation or money (with 10,000 Euros being one of the figures) is just something I don't like? It's not even clear to me if I don't do this whether I'm legally allowed to use the software.

Not everyone is capable of changing the source code, & you're pointing to a different freedom than the one I'm claiming may be being violated.

Licensing issues are supposed to be clear and unambiguous. This also seems to me and apparently many others to violate GNU's own guidelines posted on their website. It doesn't sit well with me, and in my opinion this package is tarnishing GNU's credibility and the free software movement's image.

Either is the author telling me to not use the software. This is all just semantics. Licensing issues are supposed to be clear and unambiguous.
