I wish they were still around.
Linux 5...
Fuck you're dumb. Driver can ignore all traffic signs by malice or mistake. In either case he will run your ass down. All these signs mean is it will be his fault instead of yours when the justice system starts scrapping your remains off the ground after the fact.
Hey as long as this job pays 300k/y nobody will care. Also, make sure not everybody has these guaranteed 300k/y jobs because if you give it to everyone you'll just inflate the dollar.
In a country without well enforced traffic laws, you're much more likely to be run over by a truck. By this logic GPL doesn't affect your freedom, because the FSF will have to sue you to stop you.
From the ashes Joyent rises.
Try the hardware. That shit is completely dead.
I can't argue that one. However some people (outside of Oracle themselves) still make SPARC chips/configurations. And luckily the future looks bright with things like Open POWER, RISC-V, etc.
We can hope for a spiritual successor to one day make rack systems that can produce the loudest fan noise imaginable while being in the sexiest of chassis. Nobody is going to ever be able to top the SUN logo/badge though.
SPARC has a defined death date now, though. Fujitsu dropped it for ARM, will probably only release one last chip, and nobody else uses it (even though it was libre far before RISC-V was even thought of, hell there were the OpenSPARC T1/T2 chips) because of Oracle.
I only hope for MIPS to gain traction again when it gets opened, as I like it.
But I agree that the Sun logo is damn snazzy.
wat, I have ultraSPARC systems and they are great. About as modern as any powerpc. There's still vax support in some bsds so I think it will be a while before it's really dead.
I meant in further chip development. It doesn't and won't continue to live on, as opposed to the software under illumos.
Sun hardware is excellent, it lasts for ages, I agree.
The point is you're not actually free from anything. Any retribution comes after the fact. People waste ridiculous amounts of time and money pursuing what amounts to petty state-sanctioned punishments as revenge for a violation that shouldn't have happened in the first place. It solves nothing, it prevents nothing, it guarantees nothing. All it does is inflict pain and isolation on people in the hope that it will discourage others. It's a failure. It may reduce infractions but not completely eliminate them. Therefore, you as a pedestrian are not free enough to simply cross a street without looking both ways.
That is precisely the logic. I can simply take other people's projects on github and dare them to do something about it. Most of them aren't going to do shit. Think a bunch of volunteers have a lawyer on retainer? Hilarious. Think China gives a shit about your copyright and the fact some chinese faggots are violating it? They will do nothing and and if they change their mind later lawyers will use the fact they did nothing before as evidence they didn't intend to enforce the copyright anyway.
Have you ever been to the emulator community? That one is a comedy. They'll GPL their software, get mad when people sell it on app stores (which is something they actually can do) and proceed to do nothing about it except bitch. Even in cases non-commercial licenses are violated they do nothing.
GPL violation is the norm. The only reason to worry at all is if you're some rich company since it does make you a target for petty state-sanctioned revenge. Poor faggots don't get sued.
