CIRCLE WITH A DOT

I also have a free spot for a Korean bbq booking today if anyone I know lack plans for tonight.

Heading for #Kubecon today!

Holler if you want to come chat with me how the Norwegian Broadcasting Company (NRK) serves election results, tools, widget and components for journalists and tv production.

Alternatively, holler if you want to talk about Linux distributions, platform security, TPM or Secure Boot!

@gotofritz

It's fuck harassment.

People have gotten death threats, there is more happening then just one dossier.

Get the fuck out of my mentions.

@gotofritz

Are you seriously diminishing people getting death threats and dossiers posted with personal details as.... "criticism"?

Seriously?

@ariarhythmic

This is ridiculous. Ploink.

@ariarhythmic

Dehumanizing people this way to justify your hate and vitrol does not make you any better then them.

People are rightfully angry at age verification laws.

That doesn't justify any harassment campaigns towards *any* FOSS developers, maintainers nor contributors. Turn that anger towards something productive.

Get a grip people, holy shit.

Lol.

So ingress-nginx is deprecated. Chainguard *loudly* announces they will keep maintaining it.

Except that if you want access to the container images you need to pay up. Else build it yourself.

Amazing. 10/10. I'm not sure why I expected anything else.

@davidgerard @xgranade

I'm just making a claim that we can't fault people for how they on their pull requests work.

For the point you are raising see this issue from 13 years ago.

Changing license · Issue #36 · chardet/chardet

This feels strange to be posing as a question, since I'm one of the co-maintainers, but @sigmavirus24 and @erikrose, do you know if it's okay/legal for us to change the license of chardet? Because it was started by Mark Pilgrim I feel li...

Seems like the original author saw this as well.

No right to relicense this project · Issue #327 · chardet/chardet

Hi, I'm Mark Pilgrim. You may remember me from such classics as "Dive Into Python" and "Universal Character Encoding Detector." I am the original author of chardet. First off, I would like to thank the current maintainers and everyone wh...

Please do not brigade the project.

@xgranade
Yes.

But lets not clutch pearls over how a understaffed FOSS project decides to merge their work.

@xgranade
They have been the upstream maintainer for years, so I don't see any huge issue with that.

I would have done the same probably?

@scy @jzb @joshbressers

Depends.

If you have a permissively licensed project, you can change the source to GPL by just using a poison pill approach.

This is what Forgejo did as an example.

Forgejo is now copyleft, just like Git

(forgejo.org)

This works as the MIT license terms are met.

The other way would not work.

@wronglang
That would probably not be litigated under copyright law.

@dekkia
Public domain is not really a thing in most of the world. So "yes", for US. For EU it's more complicated.

@joshbressers @scy

Sure, but we are not really looking at, nor discussing, cases where LLMs spits out something verbatim from another project in this case.

@muelli @scy
Sure.

But I'm not going to spend time on a strawman disguised as a logic puzzle. That isn't how laws work nor how they are formed.

@joshbressers @scy

Supreme Court has already dismissed such cases.

Access Denied

(www.cnbc.com)

So we are getting a precedent in US law. Yet to be settled in any high court in the EU though.

@mgorny
Amazing.

@scy
I'm not a lawyer so I'm not going to try and debate what is and isn't a copyright violation.
