Unless you cause harm to others (like accidentally starting the next pandemic), how could you ever punish someone for treating themselves? 🤣

We don't, as far as I know, make cutting your own arm off illegal and I fail to see how this is different.

PS: I'm not arguing against you, just noodling philosophically.

But you couldn't release your own projects based on this under pure MIT or Apache-2.0. Presumably you'd need to include the same restriction about selling on Atlassian's marketplace.

Arguably Thomas Riker is the evil one.

Gifs that end too soon.

Absolutely. GOG has a much better license and distribution model, but it's still a license.

That's not true. You still only receive a license to play the game, you do not own it. Directly from GOG's website:

We give you and other GOG users the personal right (known legally as a 'license') to use GOG services and to download, access and/or stream (depending on the content) and use GOG content. This license is for your personal use. We can stop or suspend this license in some situations, which are explained later on.

Practically this means you cannot resell your GOG installer in the way you could resell a physical book.

Don't give them any ideas.

Being old means you have the knowledge of what was. Whether you look at the past objectively or with rose-tinted glasses is irrelevant.

Split meaning equal shares, or split as in each person pays for what they ordered?

Canadian checking in.

Biggest oddity to me is that the default for restaurants is one bill, and waiters get annoyed if you ask them to split it by person.

Like why would I want to either:

  • do math correctly splitting the bill while trying to leave; or
  • be worried I ordered something more expensive than the average and unfairly make others cover it?

It's complete insanity to me.

Two questions: are you still on Gentoo, and have you tried LFS?
