Actually one of the few languages you can learn in its completeness in less than a day, so I wouldn't really say it's "hard to understand". More like hard to read and understands programs written in it.

Yes. The "tragedy of the commons" is a myth.

Without any limits, individual cattle owners have an incentive to overgraze the land, destroying its value to everybody.

This is factually false, because the land will be destroyed and individuals don't benefit, not even in the short term. Commons work great (see open source software), but capitalism and power structures abuse and destroy them for short-term profit.

What do you think the authors of the video don't understand? You must have some insights if you say you understand AI better then everyone criticizing it.

Possible unfree licenses for artwork

I'd still consider the game open source, even if the art is copyrighted.

Dwarf Fortress

Is there an open source version? It's a great game (also try the steam edition if you check it out), but I thought it was closed-source.

osu! is an amazing rhythm game. Try osu!lazer, it's the new client: https://osu.ppy.sh/home/download

I also like Pioneers and Endless Sky, both space sims.

This might not count, but both Lichess, a chess website, and OGS, a Go website are open source.

There is also Mindustry, but I haven't played it.

Isn't this treating the symptoms, not the cause? The real problem here seems to be that militaries and bad actors are killing people they obviously shouldn't, but it feels like the article just accepts that as something that "downstream users" do.

I'm all for responsible software use, but I think the issue lies deeper than software licensing.

I can recommend Sourcehut, it's still free right now: sourcehut.org You will need to learn how to use Git with email, but that isn't a bad skill to have anyway, so why not.

I don't see how rejecting 18th century-style factories or exploitative neural networks is a bad thing. We should have the option of saying "no" to the ideas of capitalists looking for a quick buck. There was an insightful blog post that I can't find right now...

That said, it is completely understandable that some users may feel uncomfortable using an account to access the service. For such cases we strongly recommend hosting your own deployment of Jitsi Meet. We spend a lot of effort to keep that a very simple process and this has always been the mode of use that gives people the highest degree of privacy.

Seems like you can avoid it by self-hosting. Still a very suspicious move, kinda defeats the whole point of an alternative to big tech conference services.

Google, GitHub and Facebook for starters but may modify the list later on

Maybe they could support some auth provider from some fediverse app? That would be kinda neat.

violations could bring fines worth up to 6 percent of their global revenue – which could amount to billions – or even a ban from the EU.

Not too shabby! Seems like the laws at least have some teeth.

Probably because it ignores issues that are relevant right now in favor of some theoretical distant future which will probably never pan out.

I have been doing things because I think other people expect them, not because I actually want to do them. Now figuring out what I should cut out...
