4·9 days agoNothing in the licensing scheme changed, at all.
This statement is incorrect. The SDK had specific source files placed exclusively under the SDK license, and the remainder of the repository dual licensed between GPL 3 and the SDK license. So the licensing scheme did change.

I get why you’d suggest the previous commenter is out of touch with what users want, but what does that have to do with being a software engineer?
I’ve had this one in my images folder for at least a couple of decades. No idea where I saved it from:

GLIM is an alternative that’s much simpler (it just uses Grub configs) so it is easy to audit:
Please don’t continue to recommend Ventoy. It has serious and unanswered security questions hanging over it, and the developer seems to be completely AWOL.
Did you read the article?
If you think that I’m misunderstanding something and arguing from a false premise then please feel free to engage with the discussion.
I thought passkeys were supposed to be a hardware device?
This is typical embrace/extend/extinguish behavior from the large platforms that don’t want their web-SSO hegemony challenged because it would mean less data collection and less vendor lock-in.
The whole idea of passkeys provided by an online platform should have been ruled out by the specification. It completely defeats the purpose of passkeys which is that the user has everything they need to authenticate themself.

Sorry, there’s no way Qualcomm is buying Intel as is
At the end of its third quarter of its fiscal 2024, […] Qualcomm had $7.8 billion in cash and […] just over $23 billion in total assets. That means Qualcomm, […] is almost certainly looking at a stock-for-stock transaction. As of writing, Qualcomm’s market cap is $188 billion, just more than double that of Intel’s at $93 billion.
In fact, Chipzilla may not be worth much to Qualcomm unless it can renegotiate the x86/x86-64 cross-licensing patent agreement between Intel and AMD, which dates back to 2009. That agreement is terminated if a change in control happens at either Intel or AMD.
While a number of the patents expired in 2021, it’s our understanding that agreement is still in force and Qualcomm would be subject to change of control rules. In other words, Qualcomm wouldn’t be able to produce Intel-designed x86-64 chips unless AMD gave the green light.
The amount of advertising for this tool in recent times is starting to look a lot like astroturfing.
I used Ubuntu from version 8.04 to 18.04 and not once did I have a successful upgrade between major versions. There is always something that gets broken to the point that a reinstall is necessary.
Got a link to that?
Can’t wait to read about it telling someone to put glue on pizza.
