Look, of the people collecting my blood are turning around and selling it for a lot of moeny, shouldn’t I get some of the money? That’s all folks are saying. I agree people should want to do it to be a good citizen to their fellow humans, but the people getting the blood should also not be making money off of it in that case.

So if the answer to “How much is blood worth?” is “Nothing!” Then awesome! If the answer is “A lot, actually…” Then something is wrong.

Everyone complaining about timezones is truly missing the forests for the trees.

Go play EVE Online. The servers used to have (still, do I think, but shorter) daily downtime that was scheduled using UTC and it led to everyone using UTC since the game server itself used that time.

I see ads pretty much everyday in Windows. They’re not as attention grabbing as traditional ads and I think this is part of why some people don’t see them.

Just because it might be legal to violate copyrights in other countries doesn’t make the code considered open source though lol.

Like I give a shit, I knew what the fuck they meant.

Amazing word smithing. 💖

YFW the part about “to see how men and women react differently to pain” was a ruse. They are actually studying how men rate their pain differently when told they’re being compared to women versus when they’re not.

You’re being obtuse. I get the point you’re trying to make – you’ve been heard. I’m just saying those aren’t the terms you should be using to make it. Open source has a very distinct definition and it has to do with the licenses covering the code. It has nothing to do with whether different countries have differing laws. Code cannot be open source in one country and not open source in another because the definition has nothing to do with countries. In fact, that would specifically not be open source because it gives rights to some and not others.

If someone infringes on a copyright that doesn’t mean the work isn’t copyrighted. You can’t just say things that are source available are open source. Even if someone is infringing on the rights holders they’re still only source available.

Open source doesn’t mean source available. You simply aren’t using the term correctly.

Please don’t muddy the water with terms like this. Something is open source if and only if it has an open source license.

Don’t forget that “open source” has a different definition than “source available”.

while nearly no one is complaining about MS using github to train their copilot LLM,

Lots of people complained about that. I’ve only seen this single thread complaining about this.

I know. Just the “full-stack meta frameworks” part alone makes any ADHD person feel nausea.

??? Please don’t make weird blanket statements like this.

I believe it was my 2021 taxes (meaning I filed in 2022). Think I still have a shot? I don’t remember how much it was but it was definitely more than zero.

Wish I’d known this. One year we forgot one of our W2s.
