Which graphical system utlities you miss on Linux?
  • Thanks. I will try all the suggested options and see which one is more convenient. :)

  • GRUB is confusing
  • Yes, x86 legacy is really confusing. Especially if you are going to write your own kernel or bootloader.

  • [Serious] What non-religious video(s) lights a fire under your ass to get shit done?
  • Maybe one of those videos is "So if you want to change the world, start off by making your bed."(youtube). It's not even a video, but the speech itself. This speech is quite inspirational. And it doesn't even matter who said it. And even usually I don't really like the military.

  • What is the lowest score you have achieved on EFF Cover Your Tracks?
  • It constantly gives me 17.5 bits on several browsers firefox, nyxt, gnu icecat, librewolf...

  • Which graphical system utlities you miss on Linux?
  • Maybe simple and easy to use GUI Firewall.

  • What do you like most about the Christmas season?
  • I like that most people become a little kinder at Christmas.

  • What is your opinion of Joseph Stalin?
  • He is an ambiguous person. He certainly did a lot of good things, but there were mistakes and even from our point of view, quite cruel decisions. It is difficult to assess why he made certain decisions. There is a lot of unconfirmed information and ambiguous accusations around him, although, of course, there are bad decisions, maybe we don't know all the information, or maybe he was wrong. It was a difficult time back then. According to some reports, at the end of his life, even Lenin treated him ambiguously and was afraid of the concentration of power in one hand and even wrote a letter to the congress, but some doubt this, so it may not be true. To truly understand this, you need to be a historian and read a lot of original documents by yourself. But I don't think that we should consider him only a complete villain, as he is often exposed.

  • What advertising slogan would you give for Linux?
  • Linux. The Power of the Community.

    I didn't come up with it and the picture is not mine. I just found it on the internet earlier.

  • What advertising slogan would you give for Linux?
  • You can fix it, really. :)

  • If there are too many of them around, the temptation to become one of them increases... :(

  • I consider Extended Wigners Friend Problem Experiment to be quite fascinating. This experiment has already been performed, but I expect its results to be fully understood by the masses. And I am not proffesional physicist and want to understand it better too by myself. a-quantum-experiment-suggests-theres-no-such-thing-as-objective-reality The results of this experiment call into question one or more assumptions about the existence of objective reality, freedom of choice, or locality. All three cannot exist together. But personally, I think that the second and third points have been checked a lot of times, so no matter how improbable it may seem, the first point is the most likely. But what it really means remains to be understood.

  • Do you use Gnome or KDE Plasma?
  • I use lxqt mostly beacause it's simple and moderately lightweight.

  • What was the last original movie you saw and how did you watch it?
  • It's unusual, but it was a little-known Russian movie from which I didn't expect much, but in the end I liked it. It was Lord of the Wind (2023). Although I usually don't like modern movies lately. It is about Fyodor Konyukhov is a Russian survivalist, voyager, aerial and marine explorer and his round-the-world balloon flight. Unfortunately, I don't know if it is available in English.

  • What item you use frequently would you be least surprised to learn is secretly bad for you?
  • I think sugar by itself is not so bad. The fact it is in amost all types of prepared foods from the store is really bad. But I'm not a specialist.

  • If you had the choice to be born would you have been born?
  • No is not such a pleasant decision in this question, in order to answer this way you need to really feel or witness really bad things. Therefore, a large number of such answers says something...

  • what would you put in space to break the scientists?
  • A large military submarine, and/or Porcupine fish. But I'll be very sad if fish dies. And in order to actually break scientists, you need to put in space them.

  • Help me identify plants in my aquarium if you have free time. :)

    Once I bought a set of plants cheaply, but the disadvantage was that even the seller himself did not know the exact names of these plants. Please help me roughly identify the plants in my aquarium if you have free time. :)

    I know that there is a bit of Java moss in the upper center.

    EDIT:

    Thanks all for your answers. 2.- I think it is Ludwigia Repens. And it's across all of aquarium.

    How can I add a simple requirement "do not train Al on the source code of the program" to AGPLv3 or GPLv3 and thereby create a new license?

    How can I add a simple requirement "do not train Al on the source code of the program" to AGPLv3 or GPLv3 and thereby create a new license?

    Don't know is it a good place for such a question but I try :).

    Why did I come up with such an stupid idea? There have been reported cases where artificial intelligence such as Github Copilot has been trained on many open source and free software projects, and in some cases it can output code snippets from GPL-licensed projects without specifying it. https://www.pixelstech.net/article/1682104779-GitHub-Copilot-may-generate-code-containing-GPL-code

    I am not a lawyer, and I do not know where it is better to insert such a requirement. And how to formulate it in the best and correct form.

    I understand it maybe complicated to check, to comply with this requirement and it may cause other difficulties, but I still think it can be a useful addition.

    How to fit it with the fundamental freedoms of the GPL or it is unfitable?

    I understand that this would make the license non-free, since it puts constraints on what the code can be used for. It's sad that it doesn't combine in some way. Maybe change requirements to do not train "closed source AI"(without code and training data of AI model publicly available).

    And how can I name it? Is it better to name it without "GPL" If this new license cannot be considered free? NoAIFL or your variants :)?

    Is it good to just add a new item?

    For example like this:

    Additional Clause: You may not use the source code of this program, or any part thereof, to train any artificial intelligence model, machine learning model, or similar system without explicit written permission from the copyright holder.

    or

    Section [X]: Restrictions on AI Training You may not use the source code of this program, or any part thereof, to train any artificial intelligence model, machine learning model, or similar system without explicit written permission from the copyright holder.

    What you think about it? Maybe you already know licenses like this?
