Looks like the #fosstodon nazi bar is open for business again, with their new mods professing their fandom for alt-right content creators.

That didn't last very long ...

What got me to post this thread was watching his "I'm DONE with Google" video: https://youtu.be/u_Lxkt50xOg In there he goes over the whole crazy journey to do that, all the #FOSS he replaced :omya_google: services with. Including how he turned his #SteamDeck into his #HomeLab server, while still can be gamed on. Never did I ever think I would become a #PewDiePie fan, but here I now am one.

@[email protected] @[email protected] If he is a terrible person with far right sympathies, then maybe so am I. People make mistakes. People grow. Just look at his latest videos and compare him with five years ago. He learned from what he did and he seems so much better now. I'm so tired of this garbage take.

@virtulis You mean is #fosstodon still giving #nazi sympathisers a free pass? Yeah, its business as usual in that regard
@agnes Yeah, #fosstodon is a cesspit
@andrewrk A plan to rename pigs is already underway and I hear good things about it
@TomSellers If its a #Cisco product, it has hard coded credential. Just as the sky is blue and the grass is green.

It would help if the post would include a link to a static nix binary.
It's not necessarily trivial to find.

It's of course intended as an anti-SaaS clause, and the big SaaS providers are of course aware, so in that sense it is quite deliberately done this way.
Of course it affects eg. Hobbyists who just want to run a service on VPS in exactly the same way.
IMO the #EUPL is a very double edged sword in that sense.
@kytta @scy That's technically incorrect. I know the fsf believes you can just "relicense" EUPL code under a different license, but that's a misinterpretation of "compatibility".
What you can do is link your GPL code against EUPL code or include EUPL code in your GPL program and continue to distribute the work as GPL.
That works because there is no virility in European law.
The included code will however remain EUPL licensed.
@AAMfP @Mehrad @Lluis_Revilla @EUCommission
The main caveat here is that this paragraph turns this license into an EULA, which does not only apply to the developer but also the user of the software.
It does not only apply to developers if software but also its users. As such, I would argue that "silently" forcing the obligations guaranteed onto the user is not a friendly move and is probably not compatible with the law on many European countries.
The same applies to AGPL as well, though they choose to not state it explicitly, which might be just fine in American jurisdiction, for which GPL licenses are primarily designed.
