Yup, Dev replied in another comment and updated it.

The title is from FSFE. You clearly contribute to FOSS, which is fantastic, and while I and many others agree with you, someone who posted a comment about FSFE probably doesn’t need a novel on post-Stallman terminology…

Yea I run my own instance, always fun to see the same people downvote your stuff. I personally think it’s bots in my case.

Hmm, am I missing something in the functionality?

I like that it sanitizes the URL, but I need something that will convert a share of, say:

http://this/ site

To open a URL of http://that.site/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fthis.site

Is there a module that let’s me do this?

Thank you! Just learned URL Forwarder is actually open source, but will take a look at this, too.

Oh nice! I had looked for it and couldn’t find it’s source repo. Just assumed it wasn’t FOSS.

That’s because that’s all they have terms for. This is a company who’s FAQ shows you how to take the device apart and how to flash the firmware. It’s as open as it gets.

Pretty standard stuff.

You should probably stop complaining about FOSS if you don’t understand how it works.

i have no desire to

So? Then don’t, but don’t claim the $20 is your issue. Firmware is easy, you just don’t want to learn it.

they could at some point decide to revoke the license

Nope. They need approval from all contributors to change, and even if they got that, anyone could fork from the time of the current license. This is how FOSS works. Lemmy itself could do the same thing.

It’s just not worth it for me for any open product I purchase.

What open products are you purchasing that you think don’t follow this pattern?

1. You can compile whatever you want into the firmware and load it on the device.

2. The server is configurable, by loading new firmware. It’s just like flashing an ESP32, which you could also build your own TRMNL out of.

In other words, those are not real issues.

This is a really bad way to look at an Open Source project. Want an API for free? Host your own, they have a server you can run. They are providing that service as a hosted platform, that they pay for, so you don’t get that part for free. That’s not what FOSS is.

Ghost Recon. Outriders. There are more. And old games are still fun. (But yes, more would be better)

Hawley introduced the legislation, titled the Decoupling America’s Artificial Intelligence Capabilities from China Act, on Wednesday of last year.

For people who see this, I think they meant “last month.”

I think they mean privacy friendly version of the infrastructure could be developed.

Years and years ago I worked on a project where the logo was the outline of a head and an inward swirl for the brain.

For the website, if you held your mouse over it for 9 seconds, it would spin and flush. No one ever found that one that I know of.
