@ranjit turning a big dial taht says "Onions per minute" on it and constantly looking back at the audience for approval like a contestant on the price is right
@ranjit "Onions per minute" is a good metric of how weird the news is: how often does it generate a real headline that looks like it came from The Onion.

Most of you know me here for my AI stuff, but I have also been drawing most of my life. I wasn't the best of artists but I enjoyed what I made just as I enjoy AI art, which I am still not the best at but that's ok because I enjoy it all the same. Express your creativity however you want :)
A nice compact explanation for permissive vs. copyleft licensing I found:
Both models provide freedom and protection at the expense of the developer;
Permissive model provides more freedom and protection for your *immediate downstream user* at the expense of the end user;
Copyleft model provides more freedom and protection for your *end user* at the expense of the intermediate users.
It's pretty context-dependent which way you wanna go, but personally, in a toss-up, I'm gonna side with the end user. Because that's what actually matters in the end: the ability to actually use the software freely.
At the end of the day, if I have to use a proprietary, locked-down system that spies on me, doesn't let me modify it, or even look at its insides, and generally treats me, the user, like crap, it doesn't make a nick of difference to me that it has a BSD kernel inside, or MIT-licensed coreutils, right?

It's a nice project, I quite like it. But the license choice kinda irks me.
The author states that its goal is not to fight the GNU project. While that might not be the intention, in my opinion, this is actually one third of the way to the EEE scenario.
MIT license means it's easy for corporations who choose to make proprietary software to adopt it for their projects. So the "Embrace" step is basically done, voluntarily.
The next step is to Extend it, to make it on par or better than GNU Coreutils. Which has not been achieved yet, but this is the goal.
If this has the potential to be better than GNU coreutils (and it does, being written in a more modern language, and by that virtue having more potential for modernization), then why use GNU coreutils at all? That will be the Extinguish part.

I downloaded a program for macOS. The OS absolutely refuses to let me run it, falsely claiming that it's "damaged." It is not damaged, Apple just cares more about extracting profit from developer licenses and collecting data through App Store downloads.
There's a dark pattern where you can right click and select "Open," which behaves differently than double-clicking the same thing. This does not work for this program.
I had to run: `xattr -d com.apple.quarantine /Applications/ProgramName.app` to make it work.
Despicable, hostile, anti-user, anti-competitive behavior from Apple.

Today, thousands of anti-fascists assembled around the UK to face down racist rallies. Most of the rallies never materialized.
Whenever fascists strike a blow, if we respond quickly and boldly, it offers an opportunity to draw more people into the struggle against capitalism, white supremacy, and the state. We must not let anyone imagine that the police will deal with fascists for us—on the contrary, they are a much greater threat to freedom than any group of ordinary racists.
