A cursory google search has birds at around 30db and a DJI drone at around 1000x louder at 70db. I think this is something that can be worked on and improved. Also, I'd love to hunt duck one of these days, sounds like a very unique experience!

It's hard to make accurate month-to-month comparisons in our segment (retro games), because all of our products are second-hand and therefore we'll have different inventory all the time.

That said, our "regular" SKUs (cart only Super Mario 64, PS2 Consoles etc.) are generating maybe 20% more revenue compared to this time last year. Earlier in the year, this was as high as 2-3x normal revenue.

> Mimikatz first became a key hacker asset thanks to its ability to exploit an obscure Windows function called WDigest. That feature is designed to make it more convenient for corporate and government Windows users to prove their identity to different applications on their network or on the web; it holds their authentication credentials in memory and automatically reuses them, so they only have to enter their username and password once. While Windows keeps that copy of the user's password encrypted, it also keeps a copy of the secret key to decrypt it handy in memory, too. "It’s like storing a password-protected secret in an email with the password in the same email," Delpy says.

Any thoughts on support for ESXi? I have a bunch of VMware and would love to run these on top. I gather that it will run, but without hardware acceleration? What does that actually mean?

I would love both, but AirPods are close enough on fit for me personally (lucky) that I can wear them on long mountain bike rides. Any kind of wired headphone gets caught on a branch or my hand or something else catches on.

Obviously the AirPods Max aren't coming on any bike rides either, but when I'm at my desk I prefer over ear headphones or speakers. (But I'm probably not buying the Max either)
I first came across the dilemma of choosing an open source license when I wanted to create and distribute an Opera (pre-blink / chromium version) browser extension through their add-on online platform. Opera was promoting the Apache license to everyone, as a default, and urged me too to chose that when I submitted by extension. After some research online, I figured it was because an Apache license made it easier for them to re-use and integrate the code with any of their proprietary (or otherwise) product and permission for such use was implicit in the license. GPL v3 was more restrictive due to its viral nature.

I ultimately chose the GPL v3 license, so that if anyone wanted to use my code commercially in a proprietary product, they would have to consult with me to work out a suitable arrangement (like dual licensing and granting them the right to use the code with a more permissive license - this would be easy in this case, as I was the sole developer with all rights). This was not done with any monetary consideration in mind but as a young developer I just wanted to be made aware when someone wanted to use my code commercially, to mention the same in my resume.

The second reason was that GPL v3 better protects the ideal of open source that I subscribe to - the USER should have access to the source code and be able to modify and use it for their own purposes. Other more permissive open source license don't protect this right.

This is where AGPL comes in too.

With "cloud computing" and "software as a service" becoming popular, many tech corporates that had avoided GPL softwares, now started using the software on servers and offering it as an online hosted service. GPL requires you to share the source code, along with any modifications, when someone asks for it, when you distribute a software using GPL code. But with online hosted services, corporates claimed that since they weren't distributing the software and the user was not running it on his computer, they didn't need to share the source code or any modification made to it with anyone.

AGPL was created to prevent this and further protect the USERS right, as it forced anyone who chose to use AGPL software and offer it as a service, to share their source code.

I still believe GPL / AGPL is the BEST open-source license. All developers are also USERS of their application. Thus, GPL's focus to protect the USERS right at all cost, works to protect your rights as a developer too as your source code, in any form, will always be open and available.

For commercial open source projects, dual license (partially or fully closed + GPL) is the way to go. MySQL / MariaDB is a good example.

Eh, I feel the opposite. My Bose headphones are starting to wear out, and have always been kind of finicky in pairing and getting disconnected. It's worth it to me to pay the $200 more to get newer headphones that in all likelihood sound noticeably better, have spatial audio, and hopefully have no trouble connecting to and switching between Apple devices.

The one thing holding me back actually is, based on the reaction I'm seeing so far, wondering if there will be a negative stigma to these or if they'll attract a lot of attention. Like the google glass years ago where everyone noticed it immediately and thought you were a douchebag for wearing it.

It doesn't ring true to you but your truth differs from the science.

The idea that everyone has an equal and balanced amount of dark and light traits and is therefore impossible to classify is misguided.

There are many people who can fit into the category of dark and light and there are many people who are complex as you describe.

At the very far end of the spectrum are people with antisocial disorder or more commonly known as psychopathy. These are people who can plunge a knife into your face and feel nothing. These people fit our definition of "dark." These traits are actually physically measurable and the fact that these people exist proves your statement as only one part of a more complex story.

The science actually says that at the far end of the spectrum a psychopath tends to not be successful due to there inability to self control. Ordinarily your behavior is tempered by fear and empathy but a psychopath can only temper his impulses through raw logic overall leading to more problems.

It would be very interesting to know what impact this will have on these preventing these types of violent rapes and murders in the first place. On one hand, if you've seen the progress made in the last few decades you'd have to think that if you leave even a trace of DNA around you stand an increasing chance of being caught in the future. On the other hand, does someone who is willing to commit a crime like that have enough sense to realize that at the point where they can avoid the crime?

As I understand it, Qt is released under a mix of GPL and LGPL, so as long as you release the source code of your application you should be fine.

I'm not sure how they can prevent you from transitioning from an open source license to a commercial license? You can develop your app for a year either as open source or privately without releasing anything, and then decide to purchase a license? Not sure if I'm missing something, but how does could they prevent this (legally or practically)?
Makes sense, considering that they're now censoring vendors from selling merchandise labeled "stop the steal" and probably other political messages to come in the future.

Quite. That said, migrating to new protocols and systems is rather challenging. So we get retrofits like DNS over HTTP, and Oblivious DNS over HTTP.

OK, I'll bite. :-D

If you say you "couldn't care less" then you don't care at all, and that's what you are trying to point out (This is the correct version of the phrase, for how it is used in every case I can think of).

Saying you "could care less", means you do care, at least a little (as Weird Al points out in the "Word Crimes" song). Again, in the places where I hear people use one of these phrases, they always mean they don't care at all, and are trying to emphasize that.

Only "I couldn't care less" makes sense for that meaning.

I think that's because HPC users are largely non-technical developers. We changed a DHCP schema at one point and had a bunch of angry academics in the IT office because their Matlab scripts were broken. Many of them had been hard coding IP addresses into the code itself.
Yeah, the "for people that value their eye sight when working at 3 AM" got to me. I knew it had to mean that dark mode was a big feature here.

I don't know if this editor offers a light mode. I hope it does. I love good hex editors, and this one looks very interesting. But light mode is a necessity for me because of my vision.

I have no quarrel with anyone who only wants to implement dark modes, it just means I won't be able to use their products.
Refining oil takes power... and if you use (cheap) clean power to convert the rough hydrocarbons into refined gas fuel or other higher end hydrocarbons... you're making it pollute less (viewed from the lifecycle) and cheaper. So in a way, you're storing excess solar power in the gas, via reducing the need to burn gas to make more gas.

It was never going to be possible for Linux to switch, so it's honestly a bit of a moot point. By 2007, the overwhelming majority of copyrights were not held by Linus and lots of the code was already licensed as GPLv2-only (not to mention that tracking down copyright holders pre-Git would've been basically impossible -- and that's before you start worrying about bankrupt companies or people who've passed away). Switching licenses is incredibly hard, and in my view it was a mistake to make GPL upgrades opt-in (they should've been opt-out as is the case with the Mozilla Public License).

I also broadly disagree with the argument that if the Linux community (or in this case, Linus) is against something then it is not a reasonable thing to put in the GPL. A reminder that the official policy of the Linux Foundation and lead maintainers is to avoid GPL enforcement at all costs[+] -- meaning that by this reasoning, the GPLv2 having any enforcement provisions at all is "too scary".

[+] GregKH has spoken on this quite a few times. I don't disagree with their view that enforcement reduces the chance of recurring contributions (which is what they actually care about), but it does mean that Linux's usage of the GPLv2 is more akin to MIT but with some extra public shaming if a company doesn't provide sources.
I put myself through college largely by playing in clubs and bars on the east coast.

Because the change happened so slowly, many people don't appreciate exactly how streaming killed musician's incomes.

For the most part, they were cover bands, and we never made much money at the door. Most of our income came from selling $15 CDs to drunk patrons who were having a great time. Live music isn't as popular as it used to be, but the move to MP3 and streaming took away the impulse purchase that made so many local bands profitable.

> I just wish more devs had the courage to just stop capitulating to fear of a few different types.

It's not fear: it's Apache-/MIT-/BSD-license-as-marketing. It' no longer enough to have a project that solves a specific problem - you now have to build "mindshare" and a "community" and have the metrics to show VC's so they can fund your growth, and corporate acceptability is key here. The playbook of a successful open source project is:

1. Use the most liberal license you can think & grow a community

2. Become popular, gain traction in enterprise market & get millions in funding

3. AWS forks your project, tells customers they can scale it better than you

4. Investors call you and demand you do something - competing with Amazon wrecks all their projections on your future revenue. You add anti-cloud-hosting clauses to your license - building a community is no longer a concern the way Amazon is.

TerminusDB were on step 0 (no thanks to the GPL), now they are on step 1.

A label will often pay to record your music, including hiring the best producers or session musicians, getting other established artists featured in your songs, getting the best people to mix and master it to make it sound great. Then they pay to market it and put it on the radio (which is just one big ad network these days).

Really it's very similar to raising venture capital. You don't need to do it, you can bootstrap a company with almost no money and people do it all the time. But if you have the chance to work with an expert who's willing to put in a lot of money upfront, it can really accelerate your trajectory.

I have no qualms with Spotify's business model: a 30/70 split seems fair. But their incentives are absolutely aligned with the record labels and the huge artists, not the smaller artists.

The promise of the golden era of music piracy was that it'd be a force to level the playing field for all artists and give the little guys a fair chance to compete with the bigger guys.

Spotify should give a subscriber's money to the artists one listens to. It's not just what's fair; it's common sense, and it would absolutely breathe a new life into the music industry.
