Sister communities:


Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
  •  

    Please report posts and comments that break these rules!


    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't fork-bomb your computer.

    Well, it's under a permissive license, so there is little he can do legally, except maybe sue them for not mentioning the original project, which I'm sure they will add and that will be that eventually.

    That's true. A little recognition would've been nice and I think that's all he was asking for. Microsoft had a whole team work on it when they could've just given him a job to maintain it.

    They pulled a corporate and rewrote an opensource project to embed it into windows

    I love it when people get pissed off about nothing that even affects them.

    I own my own instance. Your "license" is not accepted. Your instance sharing content with mine is an automatic agreement to my instance's terms.

    1.2 Grant of License: By uploading User Content, you grant Saik0-Lemmy a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to use, copy, distribute, publicly display, and modify your User Content

    See how silly this is? Your license means nothing. It's just wasted screen space. And nobody is pissed. People are just trying to talk sense to you.
