The only time I ever have to even think about drivers is when I’m cursed with something from work that has to be written for, or done in Windows. Drivers on Linux are great if you don’t need something like an obscure piece of hardware, and even then, your odds are probably better than on Windows. .

Where do you get the nightly builds?

The desktop app can be used as a bridge for biometrics in the browser extension, but other than that, it basically serves no unique purpose unless and until they add autofill for desktop applications.

Totally fair. I’m curious to see if anyone else may have reasons why it might be suboptimal.

Is the a downside to repacking the deb package? They’re basically just zip files of the same binary you’d run on most other Linux distros.

Thanks for sharing the actual license text.

To me, this stinks of companies knowing that if they’re actually required to reproduce the data, they’ll get hit with copyright infringement or other IP-related litigation. Whereas if they can just be trusted to very honestly list their sources, they can omit the sources they weren’t authorized to steal and reproduce content from, they can get away with it.

I think that, in practice, this means that the industry standard will be to lie and omit the incriminating data sources, and when someone tries to reproduce the model they won’t actually be able to, but they also won’t be able to easily prove one way or another if data was withheld.

Really, what should (but won’t) happen, is that we should fix our broken IP laws and companies should be held to account for when they engage in behavior that would be prosecuted as piracy or Computer Fraud and Abuse if you or I did it.

AI is pretty much the epitome of companies getting to act with impunity in the eyes of the law and exerting that power over everyone else, and it’s annoying to see it get a blessing from an “open source” organization.

“The new definition requires Open Source models to provide enough information about their training data so that a ‘skilled person can recreate a substantially equivalent system using the same or similar data,’ which goes further than what many proprietary or ostensibly Open Source models do today,” said Ayah Bdeir, who leads AI strategy at Mozilla.

Garbage. What this says to me is that they’re going to allow companies that create models that were trained on data that would be illegal for you and me to scrape and regurgigate, to keep the data to themselves as long as they “provide enough information” for someone else that lacks the resources or legal impunity that companies have to theoretically re-steal the data. Which, you know, means that the models won’t be reproducible by any reasonable standard, and can’t actually be called open source.

But the OSI is just a handful of companies in a trenchcoat, so I’m not surprised by what they would call “open”.

I’m on mobile, but I stand by what I said. Responding to someone that was responding to someone else that was being obstinate with average response when I ask for help is missing the actual point.

The OP that I quoted wanted to be combative, got a combative response, and then someone else you made it about “asking for help”, which is their your fault if they you think that this thread had anything to do with it.

No it literally doesn’t work it’s not compatible. Also don’t be a bitch…

That is a really interesting way of asking for help. Next time I need help, I’ll try being obstinate and predetermining that the thing I need help with just doesn’t work while calling them a bitch and see how that goes.

I usually try actually asking for help and refrain from calling the person I’m talking to a bitch.

And justice was served. I got a whole $12 for their wrongdoing!

Is it? The FTL is restrictive about who is allowed to redistribute and modify anything covered by it. Is this data covered under a different license?

SmartTubeNext is is the good (no ads) version of YouTube for AndroidTV devices.

It’s a temporary ban. That is less of a consequence than what you’d face for airing a little too much copyrighted content or something, except for saying shit that could have come from Hitler’s mouth.

Ah. If we’re talking mobile, all bets are off. FIDO prompts require Apple and Google to provide the necessary APIs for third-party devs to use, and are still somewhat new. It’s likely that since iOS browsers are still just re-skinned WebKit (until the EU stuff settles and Mozilla implements Gecko on iOS), FF on iOS can leverage the OS APIs, but making it work with Gecko on Android requires more work.

I was referring to desktop, where those limitations aren’t a hindrance.

Correct. The spec is about making it easier and more secure to export your passwords and passkeys when you move from one password manager to another. People are misunderstanding this as some sort of federated authentication system to share your credentials between multiple password managers at the same time, which it is not.

It’s gonna work with KeePass and Bitwarden once it’s finalized.

FYI: the people in here recommending the open source competitors for Yubico aren’t mentioning one thing: YubiKeys, being proprietary, support a proprietary protocol called Yubico OTP in addition to the FIDO authentication protocol that the open source competitors can do.

The reason this matters is that some applications, like the Linux Bitwarden desktop app (there are others, but this is one that I’ve had to deal with), don’t support FIDO authentication, but do support Yubico OTP. This means that, for those apps, the open source keys wouldn’t be a valid authentication method.

Granted, the number of applications like this are small, and probably grows smaller by the day, but it’s an important distinction to be aware of.

Midnight Massterpiece is more like it. Anything from Mike Flannigan is great. Also check out Midnight Club. It’s not particularly scary, but more touching and sad, in a good way.

Yeah. I intentionally buy my games on Steam for ethical reasons because Valve contributes to a positive gaming ecosystem by making things run seamlessly on Linux.

GOG contributes to a negative gaming ecosystem by making Windows the “easy” option and not making use of Proton (or similar tech). Hopefully they fix that one day, but they don’t seem to care.
