yes but there’s still a EULA you agree to about redistribution and how you’re allowed to use the software etc…even FOSS software has licenses. if there’s terms in there about being able to back out of the agreement, i’d imagine there would be a clause about destroying copies of the software

that all seems very reasonable

honestly with online only games i’d be “okay” (not that it’d be great but okay) with them just releasing a bunch of internal docs around the spec. you’re right that open sourcing commercial code is actually non-trivial (though perhaps if they went in knowing this would have to be the outcome then maybe they’d plan better for it), but giving the community the resources to recreate the experience i think is a valid direction

you can’t sign away consumer rights in a EULA… they might try and out them in there, but if it were law then they wouldn’t be able to enforce it

also loans still exist regardless of investment like stocks, which is the way most small businesses start anyway

over COVID, the company i worked for did the best possible thing: they called an all hands and said they didn’t want to let anyone go, but would likely need to unless everyone took a voluntary 20% pay cut for a bit… they expressed that not everyone is in the position to do that, and if you can’t you shouldn’t feel bad… executives and leadership making the decision took a 40% pay cut for the same period, and any profit that the company made went to reimburse people’s salaries in proportion to the amount they lost. because they were honest, and sacrificed more themselves the buy in was something like 95%, they didn’t have to fire anyone, and we ended up getting about half of it back…

i’d consider that all a good thing, but i can also see how it’s more work

they’re supposed to be stateless because it’s easier to manage, upgrade, etc… if you don’t want that, you can just use load/save/commit (or import/export: can’t remember off the top of my head which is which) and ignore volumes: it amounts to the same thing… there’s also buildpack rebase so you can swap out the base container and keep your top level changes for quick version upgrades that are super simple to roll back

misconfiguration here i think is a dangerous way to phrase it… it implies that there is a secure way to run jellyfin on its own. jellyfin, by itself, should never be exposed to the www. it is, no matter the configuration, insecure. to run jellyfin on the www you must put a VPN or other reverse proxy with auth over the top of it

swiftfin is mostly there but doesn’t support media segments, which is a deal breaker for me

really unfortunate since jellyfin media segments is a much better implementation of the concept than plex

i’m watching the swiftfin issue for when it gets added and i’ll be all over compiling and testing it

you can use commit, save/load, import/export for the same thing as VM snapshots

• for non-urgent regular things book with my GP in an app (pretty sure that’s the case for most GPs too). usually an appointment within a few days; sometimes he’s booked out for a couple of weeks, but if i don’t feel like waiting i can book anywhere else. when i go to my appointment, tests etc are all free. i go to a private clinic so i pay $75AUD (~$50USD) and the govt reimburses me $45 of that - public clinics are free but i go to a speciality clinic
• for non-urgent sick things (or anything really - scripts etc too; i just use it when i don’t want to go to my GP) we have home doctor service: you book in an app and a doctor will come to your house the same day - free
• for specialists the waiting period can depend on what it is, but i have had a 3mo wait for a specialist before :(… usually you go to your GP, get a referral, see a specialist, then perhaps have surgery if necessary. it can be a months long wait for surgeries which is not great, buuuuut it’s also great to go in for day surgery in the morning, and just leave later that day without paying a cent
• for emergency, unfortunately you can be waiting for a few hours… they triage you so i’m sure if it’s a real issue you wouldn’t keep you waiting but for things like potentially broken bones you can be waiting for up to 3hr… it’s all free
• for ambulance it differs per state but in my state (victoria) they aren’t - it’s ~$1400 for an emergency trip. you can also buy ambulance membership for $53/y and it’s free

pretty much anything where i’ve talked about costs or free you give them your medicare (federal health system for everyone - not just low income etc) details and they bill the govt a set amount for time and materials used. GP clinics etc store it on file so sometimes you can just walk out without talking to anyone

you need to know css to use tailwind because it’s basically style= on everything: it’s css with extra steps

imo there’s VERY little difference to a lot of tailwind and style=“…”. you gain a few minor abstractions, but you lose so much

i love so so much that bluey is one of australia’s most influential exports

actually for big youtubers, ad revenue from google isn’t all that huge afaik. i’m going only on the LMG breakdown they did, but they only get 26% of their revenue from adsense… that’s no tiny share of course, but i wouldn’t call it completely catastrophic to loose

meanwhile if my US friends come to australia and try to tip i will angrily tell them where to shove it

tipping is a fucking scourge

i’d tape a screw driver to the battery… the tiny drivers you’d need for modern phones could be tiny: look at the sim ejectors… that, but as a screw driver

i was thinking i’d hate it, and i can still see there are some readability issues to work out… but actually im finding i love it: it really kinda sinks into the background and lets the main content on the screen shine… the “bending” of the content in the panels rather than a blur is a much more effective middle-ground to making the foreground UI disappear until you need it

is this the way of the future? probably not… it’ll be way harder for anyone to implement than a blur, and that’s without the animations etc that make things way more complex…

but i do think it’s interesting to try new things with how you separate foreground and background in UI: we’ve been just chucking a quick blur and semi transparent colour block on buttons etc for a while, and i think this approach has a lot of up-sides

windows n-1 was was good: an always relevant statement not because it’s true, but because less shit than whatever the garbage is now is such a low bar
