Obviously the way the previous commenter worded it would infringe on the platforms’ free speech, it’s only workable if we replace “harmful” with “illegal” (e.g. libelous).

That makes sense, thanks.
Why would a lawyer not be allowed to do that? Genuinely curious because I would expect information on who won court cases to be public anyway?


IRC still exists, the closest FOSS IRC client to mIRC is KVIrc.
The closest thing to a modernized IRC is Matrix.


The law will be the same in all EU countries, including whichever parts you think will be “not mandatory” (I did read those news articles and am fully aware that mandatory scanning is no longer on the table).


misleading headline, this isn’t a list of countries in which the law will (if it passes) be different (it won’t be, it’s an EU law, so will be the same in all EU countries), it’s a list of countries that currently support/oppose the law
a desktop version of a web version of a desktop app? talk about going full circle :D


It’s an expansion to say that LLM training constitutes a derivative work. You are of course entitled to your opinion that it should be the case; all I can say to that is that in the 2000s and 2010s nearly everyone on the Internet tended to argue for more limitations, not further expansions, of copyright law, and I wonder what happened to that attitude.


and yet it is still a legally unsettled question whether LLM training requires a copyright license at all; and it is my opinion that no one should want that to be the case, why would people on the Internet want to argue for an expansion of copyright law?


The PlayStation one is the symbol, not the letter, so that one is a bit different.


No I don’t. I don’t have a PS controller and have never had a PlayStation, so this knowledge is much less universal than you seem to think.
The FSF has a page dedicated to this exact question: https://www.gnu.org/distros/common-distros.html.en


Why do I want this? There are already many browsers available, and this one isn’t even (apparently: yet) FOSS, so why should I be excited about this one?
likely not either (much) better or worse than any other place where you store your files unencrypted on someone else’s computer?
Not sure what exactly you’re asking.


KDE uses “meta” to refer to the Windows key. Emacs uses “meta” to refer to the Alt key. You are correct that GNOME calls the Windows key “Super”.
This causes some confusion, obviously we Linux users don’t want to call it the Windows key, so the best solution is to call the keys “Super” and “Alt”, those are unambiguous.


Mostly the same as Windows, ie for opening the application launcher menu, as well as for a variety of global shortcuts.


The menu key is a convenient place to put the compose key.


KDE mostly calls it Meta, GNOME calls it “Super”.


Reforming the GDPR is in principle a good idea because many of the terms used in it are so vague that it’s completely unclear what it does or doesn’t mean.
Somehow I suspect that improving this isn’t what’s going to happen…
Philosophically it is certainly interesting it didn’t capitalize “god”, suggesting it might be polytheist.
