The biggest issue is that there isn’t a universal agreement on what causes harm. There is agreement on the basics - murder, violence, etc - but they’re already illegal anyways, no need to ban them by license.

upcoming EU AI Act that regulates open source systems differently, creating an urgent need for practical openness assessment

So when they say “openness” they do put it in the context of open source rather accessibility.

Because FOSS shouldn’t add burdens. You publish your work and let everyone else use it. That shouldn’t add extra obligations on you. Usually, you’d also write some docs - after all, without them nobody will know how to use your program, so why bother publishing - but it shouldn’t be an obligation. Make it easy for people to open up their code without this attaching strings.

Documentation is nice, but it’s kind of different thing that open source: a program can be open and undocumented, or closed but well documented - and I don’t see why we’d want it different for models.

A bunch of these columns are outright absurd TBH, to the extend I’m not sure the author really knows what FOSS is about. What’s open API access even supposed to be - API access is closed by definition.

Also there has never been a requirement that open source software needs to be documented - and for good reason - so I’m not a fan of the documentation column as well.

However, it also uses halium and libhybris. That means you can’t just install your favourite distro and upstream tools. Everything that needs GPU acceleration needs to be patched for libhybris. For example, that means no upstream wlroots - and the latest patched version I think is 0.12 or so.

Actually, no, this seems to work on a very different principle.

Not really. It seems to use a very different technology from termux.

15 hours for what period of time? The article mentions they’d refill in two days…

It has AI elements already, such as a page translator.

I like the idea, but I really hate that they’ve hardcoded the provider.

On the one hand, doas is simpler. Less code means less bugs, and lower chance someone manages to hack it and gain admin rights. On the other hand, sudo is more popular, and so has a lot more people double-checking its security. Ultimately, I don’t think it matters - when someone unauthorized gains admin rights, usually it’s not due to bug in sudo or doas, but other problems.

AI that can auto generate all those command line arguments I keep forgetting? Sure.

Closed source terminal that requires account? No way.

I see there an access violation…

Because it’s not a very easy case. In fact, there is no real case.

1. It’s not just a stretch, but a huge leap, to claim that using “he” or “she” counts as “instruction […] on sexual orientation or gender identity”.
2. And even if you did manage that, you also have to argue that it’s also “not age appropriate”.
3. And if you managed that as well somehow, you have the problem that judges can take into account things like the intent of the lawmakers, and what’s reasonable, not just the raw text of the law.

Because judges are people, not robots mindlessly applying legislation. To succeed in such case you need the judges on the trial and all appeals to all decide to maliciously comply with the law.

You obviously consented that your data can be shared with all Lemmy/Fediverse instances federated with yours, and they can distribute it to Lemmy/Fediverse users - because that’s the basic premise of Lemmy.

Now, I can host a Lemmy instances of my own and get all your posts that way. No need to bother buying them.

What social contract? When sites regularly have a robots.txt that says “only Google may crawl”, and are effectively helping enforce a monolopy, that’s not a social contract I’d ever agree to.

We had Ansible, containers, ZFS and BTRFS that provided all the required immutability needed already but someone decided that is is time to transform proven development techniques

Just so you know, NixOS is older than all of these, actually. And for that matter, no less flexible.

Well, Columbus himself didn’t conquer much. He established a few settlement, but the real conquering was done by others.

More accurate comparison would be:

Yea, no, the biggest server not showing federated content by default is just pseuso-federation - being able to say you have it, while not really doing it.
