Just gave it a read, and all I can really say is that there is not real point to the article... it's just a commentary on open source software that explains some of the perils that exist when people that you don't want to use your code, do.
It doesn't convince me in any way that the open source software should not be pursued. What the article leaves out is how people use paid software for the same negative things that they mention in the article. It doesn't matter. One thing you paid for, the other you have not.
Typically, higher requirement jobs have a much easier process (in my personal experience). Jobs that require like 10 years of experience and graduate level education. Again, it will also depend on the field.
That's true, a lot of people who develop tools and assets for games would rather sell them for profit (think unity store). Pretty selfless to list it for free.
Talk about just throwing the licenses out the window. It’s still open source, since you can read it all to audit, but the use of the code is no longer free with attribution if they decide a single person cannot use it.
Though there’s no way the maintainer cares about this. Given how long this dick measuring contest has been going for.
I've never really tried linux on an HDD. At least not since the old days, but it definitely wasn't very slow back then. Yeah, Win10 on HDD feels equivalent to the computing power of a toaster.
I agree with this. The new pinephone docks to a monitor and becomes a computer. If you could do this with the new $1000 iphones, it would be more than sufficient. I’ve read recently that the A15 bionic outperforms several last generation gaming consoles. Unfortunately, doing this would also kill the company’s market for laptops. Not just Apple, but also Google with their chrome books.
Would really be cool to just bring your phone to work and plug it in and you have a fully functioning desktop. Would be an absolute privacy nightmare though.
Honest answer right here. Also I’ve recently had to use a computer with an HDD, like the old ones you can hear spinning and read/writing? It’s incredible how slow they are. We’re so lucky to have solid state tech these days.
Oh smart dude! I used to use chromium on Linux way back in the day. Totally forgot about it. I’ll give that a shot and check functionality today.
EDIT: I'm on an M1 Pro macbook, and while the chromium for intel works fine, the chromium for mac arm gives the warning that the application is damaged and should be moved to the trash. Unfortunately no current working build for Mac ARM.
I use didder, so I’m not sure how the commands would translate, but there is an example code on the didder manual that spits out almost exactly what is on the magazine’s solar site. The manual has an example image for you to play around with as well.
