  • The way I read the tea leaves, the larger union was too divided. The union president spoke at the Republican national convention so make of that what you will.

    The speculation was that the individual union sections can now endorse who they want. Now instead of one big announcement, we’re getting announcements that are getting a lot of press coverage because of the national non-endorsement.

    Trump probably thought he got a win but now it’s day after day of endorsement for Harris and you know that’s got to be eating at him.







  • The Winamp Collaborative License is a free, copyleft license for software and other kinds of works. It is designed to ensure that you have the freedom to use, Modify, and study the software, but with certain restrictions on the distribution of modifications to maintain the integrity and collaboration of the project.

    Oh god…

    No Distribution of Modified Versions: You may not distribute modified versions of the software, whether in source or binary form. No Forking: You may not create, maintain, or distribute a forked version of the software. Official Distribution: Only the maintainers of the official repository are allowed to distribute the software and its modifications.

    Copy left is not a protected term but yeah this is a shit license.

    And how the fuck do you contribute code back without forking the project?!

    EDIT: It looks like an issue has already been created and I absolutely love this thread where the license they are using is in violation of Github TOS.

    They should have just kept the source closed! The speculation is that whomever purchased it wants to crowdsource contributions without adding any value themselves.
