Hahaha these are always cute.

Hadn't realized what a banger this season is for me as a SOL/RomCom lover. Just caught up with Makeine, Alya, and Gimai Seikatsu. I'll probably pick up Giji Harem after it all airs. I usually watch 4-5 shows per year, so having 4 in one season is great.

Dude, if you're being obtuse on purpose because you have an ax to grind against Rust, try a different approach. You're not getting anywhere, clearly by the fact that no one agrees with you.

If you don't like that Rust has a restricted trademark, then call that out instead of trying to label the software and it's license as non-free. It's literally called out in my source that name restrictions ipso facto does not violate freedom 3.

But if you genuinely believe that the implementation of the Rust language and it's trademark is burdensome to create a fork, and you want people to believe you, then you gotta bring receipts. Remember, the benchmark that we both quoted is that it "effectively hampers you from releasing your changes". It being "not a piece of cake" doesn't cut it.

Hint: Google Rust forks since their existence also undermines your claim.

Good luck.

Please read this and try again.

https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.en.html#packaging

Rules about how to package a modified version are acceptable, if they don't substantively limit your freedom to release modified versions, or your freedom to make and use modified versions privately. Thus, it is acceptable for the license to require that you change the name of the modified version, remove a logo, or identify your modifications as yours. As long as these requirements are not so burdensome that they effectively hamper you from releasing your changes, they are acceptable; you're already making other changes to the program, so you won't have trouble making a few more.

Password managers support passkeys.

If you are being intentional about its use, then you can get a lot out of it. But for some, maybe even most, YouTube is a distraction.

Yes it can be an issue because the GPS doesn't know where you are and thinks you are on an aboveground street. Freeway tunnels can have multiple exits too.

I disagree. I think the default option should be what users expect, and users expect "copy" to do exactly that: copy without modifying the text.

I've turned off the bot for now.

Just because you can get part of your education remotely or through self-learning didn't mean "anything can be learned online".

And if you were hiring a math tutor for your kid, would you prefer a self-proclaimed expert from watching YouTube videos or would you want someone who got a degree from a credentialed university? And even if you don't care, why are you surprised that others would be skeptical of the YouTube expert?

Remote learning can be fine for some things, and self learning through informal channels are also fine, but it's not a full on replacement for formal education in all cases.

No sorry, that's just fundamentally false. You can't just learn titration techniques from watching a video. You can't learn phlebotomy without an instructor watching you do it to a patient. Hell, you aren't learning how to drive a car from playing a video game.

And I'm not sure where you are pulling the "if you are that powerful" from. You really have an ax to grind don't you.
