Isn't it to keep the copyright notice and not the license itself? I.e, you may redistribute it with a different license term and conditions but the copyright notice must be retained. I don't know how different it is tho in legal speak. Maybe they are equivalent.

From what I've read, mCaptcha is stateful and has higher complexity. It is more geared towards multiple site / app management than single app. While altcha is not free

C# is C++ and another ++ on top of the existing ++

Yeah, that is the only weird part about it. I think AMD is cooking up something right now behind the curtain. Whether that something is good or bad we don't know yet but so far it does not look good.

The fuck are you talking about? I already gave an example of mindustry being free anywhere but steam. As long as they don't distribute the steam keys for free somewhere else, they are safe. Steam mandates that you put the lowest/price parity for the steam keys you sold outside of steam. If for example a game is being sold on steam priced at $15 with a 30% cut, the publishers are free to distribute the steam keys on their storefront for the same $15 without any cut. OR they could sell it cheaper BUT they cannot sell the steam keys. Maybe other storefront keys/drm. But the problem is, will the publisher sell it for a lower price knowing that they could sell it for the same price across the board with a higher profit margin?

If you wanted to argue that it is steam's fault for taking the 30% cut in the first place so we get where we are now, then I don't know what to tell you anymore. The problem is not steam but greed. Back to my example mindustry, that is a valid strategy to sell it for free everywhere but steam and is perfectly legal. It's just no one wanted to follow that model (instead of free, offer a cheaper price).

I don't know man. If I have a framework laptop AND I regularly attend computer events of some sort, the framework ambassador programs do not sound all that different than the usual but you got free merch. That is the people they are targeting. You can even say their fanboy or whatever equivalent.

Ultimately, framework knows there are people that are actively using their products, attending events and love to talk about their products. This can be seen in another way of framework giving those people free merch for their free marketing that they always do anyway.

Does it do anything that the $1 cheap knock off screw drivers can do? No, its just a screw driver.

I got a chuckle out of that

Alright, maybe you misunderstood the term digits with numbers. When parsing a digit, you do not attach semantic yet to the building blocks. A \d regex parser does not care that the string "555" is not equivalent to "VVV". All it cares about is that there is the digit "5" or "V". In the same vein, regex parser should not try to parse IV as a single symbol.

To be honest, that is one rad use cases. Games usually don't have privacy concern as much as day to day usage. The problem is the fucking recall works by denylist instead of allowlist

I think translation is where LLM could truly shine the most. Some simpler models are literally searching for the closest meaning in the higher dimensional feature space. Translation isn't that far off from what those models do.

I am well aware, but it is bullet proof as in they couldn't restrict the OS from outputting audio somewhere else. For lossless DRM breaking, I'll leave that to the more technically skilled person. I am more of a developer than a "hacker"
