That’s always struck me as odd, but I’m also very much an outsider looking in. A “gecko electron” does sound intriguing though.

I see ads pretty much everyday in Windows. They’re not as attention grabbing as traditional ads and I think this is part of why some people don’t see them.
Just because it might be legal to violate copyrights in other countries doesn’t make the code considered open source though lol.
You’re being obtuse. I get the point you’re trying to make – you’ve been heard. I’m just saying those aren’t the terms you should be using to make it. Open source has a very distinct definition and it has to do with the licenses covering the code. It has nothing to do with whether different countries have differing laws. Code cannot be open source in one country and not open source in another because the definition has nothing to do with countries. In fact, that would specifically not be open source because it gives rights to some and not others.
If someone infringes on a copyright that doesn’t mean the work isn’t copyrighted. You can’t just say things that are source available are open source. Even if someone is infringing on the rights holders they’re still only source available.
Open source doesn’t mean source available. You simply aren’t using the term correctly.
Please don’t muddy the water with terms like this. Something is open source if and only if it has an open source license.
Don’t forget that “open source” has a different definition than “source available”.
while nearly no one is complaining about MS using github to train their copilot LLM,
Lots of people complained about that. I’ve only seen this single thread complaining about this.
I know. Just the “full-stack meta frameworks” part alone makes any ADHD person feel nausea.
??? Please don’t make weird blanket statements like this.
I stopped using macports when one of the first packages I downloaded for a popular program was broken.
That sounds like a good way to get trafficked lol

No, not everyone.
If I knew how to “sudo” on Windows then requiring admin wouldn’t be so bad.
I am ready to integrate with Open AI’s API develop an LLM.
Gods, I miss Windows 7 UI. I really dislike the push for everything to be flat nowadays. Aero, my beloved!
Ooh, does Linux have good open source video editing? I remember back in the day that was tricky. (Or I am misremembering.)
They say they already use it to manage GitHub issues so it’s definitely more than “point 0” right now.
