Servo has a distinct design goal that sets it apart from its predecessor within Mozilla and has already had offsprings that has made its way directly into Firefox. Its purpose is not to reinvent everything. It’s not a hype project.

Not only is Firefox using it for their CSS engine but Mozilla created Rust to build Servo and sadly only the CSS engine and maybe some other parts is what they kept around when they offloaded Rust. “the Rust ecosystem around browsers is gro

Firefox was special in that Mozilla created Rust to build Servo and then backported parts of Servo to Firefox and ultimately stopped building Servo. Thankfully Servo has picked up speed again and if one wants a Rust based browser engine wha

Sounds like standard terms from lawyers – not very friendly to customers, very friendly to company – but is it particularly bad here? I remember when I was part of procuring an analytics tool for a previous employer and they had a similar c

This goes for publicly traded companies much more than privately owned ones. GOG is now becoming private like Valve rather than publicly traded.

If the implementation gets it wrong that can also be a sign of ambiguity in the protocol / standard and as such result in clarifications and an overall more well specified protocol

sudo-rs itself is not a bad idea, Canonical’s premature shipping of it in Ubuntu was the bad idea. sudo-rs was transparent with how far it had gotten in compatibility and feature parity

If one were to make a iPhone 17 Pro Mini as thick as the iPhone 4 then it would: - Likely still weigh less than a Pro Max - Have a battery with a capacity larger than the Pro Max - Have the pro cameras stick out about as much as they did on

Completely agree! Felt like such a refresh right up until the suggestions to follow on the Musk platform – it’s basically the same as suggesting to follow on Truth Social nowadays, only that Musk has more money than Trump could ever dream o

by VoxPelli 2y ago
+1 on Bluesky, either that or Mastodon, so odd to still have to use a highly political and controversial platform like Musk’s Twitter to follow people and projects like these. Relying on Twitter is a liability, not a feature :/

Not really the same plug and play experience as a Steam Deck offers though. I personally wish that Framework works with Valve to release a version of Steam OS for their motherboards, so one can retrofit an old Framework laptop motherboard a

So you have Contributor License Agreements that enable you to relicense to something like GPL or MIT whenever you want to? Because AGPL itself can not be relicensed and it even needed special wording when created to become GPL-compliant. Si

by VoxPelli 2y ago
Absolutely not. I want to keep the legalese in my setups at a manageable level, avoid needless lock-ins (AGPL is one of the least compatible licenses out there, code from an AGPL project can only ever be used in another AGPL project) and ha

AGPL is often used by startups to achieve the effect of “fair source” licenses while still being able to claim to be fully OSS. AGPL is a poor “fair source” license and a controversial OSS license. AGPL in “fair source” projects are always

by VoxPelli 2y ago
The AGPL license is a no-go for me. While it’s technically true that it’s an OSI license it’s mostly used to scare away competing cloud vendors from hosting the software, which isn’t in spirit of OSS. Have you looked into the more modern ch

We need to start treating “non-commercial” as the ambivalent term that it is. Eg: All “non-profit” and “personal” use likely isn’t necessarily “non-commercial”, but those two can be easily identified based on who it is that makes use of the
