Restored! Maybe worth a post update?

“Ethical and legal objections”. The point in this case is that what’s legal is unethical, and what’s ethical is illegal. Analogous to other situations through history and countries, for example in the USA when it was illegal for black people to sit in certain parts of a bus, or in Germany when marriage with Jewish people was illegal.

As human beings, it’s always important to make the ethical choice.

Cheers! Got a bit clearer now.

Appreciated if someone can explain what is the problem and its context in simple terms 🙏

I understand the GNU “framework” is built on free, open source software. So I don’t understand how one can “discover” that there were pieces of non-free software there… They were put there by mistake?

Personally I disagree on value of sex/nude scenes – but it’s a subjective matter of course. Your final argument is absolutely fair and logical, and very general too. Extremely well put – I subscribe 110% to it!

It seems to me these scenes are introduced in films to sexualize them. Most often than not they don’t add anything to the story. But blood & sex get more viewers. So I find the whole thing hypocritical.

Brings me to mind an episode of the hilarious series “Coupling”, where Jeff says that the actress in the film “The Piano” (?) was naked in the whole film. His friends say she wasn’t, it was only a scene in the film. And Jeff replies “it depends on how you watch it” 🤣

Which can be further summarized: academics (🙋🏻) are basically a bunch of idiotic sheep, despite being in academia.

Fantastic, this is extremely helpful, thank you! 🥇 I wanted to test a couple of distros for my Thinkpad, and I’ll make sure to check and save this kind of information from live USBs.

Thank you, that’s useful info, I didn’t know about this. Could you be so kind to share some link, or say something more, about lspci and lsmod and how to proceed from them to identifying which drivers one should install? Cheers!

Yeah to me too. I’m not clicking on that “Download client” link for sure.

Thank you for the explanation! – it puts that sentence into perspective. I think he put it in a somewhat unfortunate and easily misunderstood way.

“Bayesian analysis”? What the heck has this got to do with Bayesian analysis? Does this guy have an intelligence, artificial or otherwise?

Thanks for the recommendations!

You brought back memories and I got interested. Interesting reading about privacy:

How much of it is true?

What’s new? We’ve had such technology for decades, and at a very cheap price too! /s

Sounds interesting, go ahead!

Not in https://browse.feddit.de/ either. It can take several days.

Interesting – it doesn’t appear in https://browse.feddit.de/ yet! Then I delete the one I just created, I don’t like redundancy.
