The government.

The internet was fine before adtech and data hoarders. I don't know why you think this is the fault of the government. New things pop up and we need regulations to protect citizens.

If he accepted the name then that means he found it funny at least.

Okay, don't worry then. I'm sure some people will come around with high quality counter arguments.

If they can't come up with counter arguments, then certainly that person is right.

Guess this is what they mean when they say we are in a "post truth world".

Personal experience as a high school attendant back in the day.

The upside is us getting the iPhone or the PS4, for example.

I think it's a good licence for an OS or for any software because it gets more products pushed out there which all in all gives society more stuff to play with, which is kind of the point of writing free software, at least for me.

I'm sure the teens that use weed or carry guns are not the same ones that get swamped with homework and tests.

They probably wanted to use an official logo with text, which Apple doesn't seem to have.

I don't understand how can someone argue "your licence is too free, you should make it more restrictive so fewer people can use your software", but what do I know

>BSD is not copyleft, why?

Really? People are going to complain because a licence is too free? ...

This is virtue-signalling. It's easy to ham-fistedly fix issues that give them publicity while ignoring stuff that needs real work to fix.

>and i live in europe

What do you mean by this? Because I live in Europe too and it's rare to see a homeless person, even in the bigger cities.

In their effort of calling it a line they made it complicated to see. They should've just highlighted the zone or something.

prablenha | 7 years ago | on: Germans don’t do tech startups – more access to capital might change that

I haven't. Where are you from? I live in Southern Europe and I have never heard of them. I looked at their website and everything is stupidly expensive.

prablenha | 7 years ago | on: Germans don’t do tech startups – more access to capital might change that

I'm European and I have never heard of any of those.

prablenha | 7 years ago | on: Germans don’t do tech startups – more access to capital might change that

As a southern European I'm very happy about this situation. I don't want my country to be like the Scandinavian countries, the GP summed it up pretty well. Everybody knows English and American culture is literally swallowing the local culture. I'm happy with my language and my culture, thank you.
