Mozilla wouldn't be struggling if another monopoly (Microsoft) hadn't destroyed their company.

As I recall, the guy who makes Pixelfed (dansup?) is also working on a vine clone called loops. It looks like the site is https://loops.video/ Doesn't appear to be operational yet.

The phones are run by private companies. Should they be allowed to restrict what you say over the phone (or sms)?

Isn't the phrase they use "up to" the promised speed? So if it is 300bps, that is not above 5Mbps, so they technically met their promise.

Isn't there an infamous Usenet post where someone did that to the creator of Perl?

I am no lawyer, but I suspect what will be considered either fair use or infringing will probably depend on how the programmed AI model is used.

For example, if you train it on a book of poetry, asking it questions about the poetry will probably be considered fair use. If you ask the AI to write poetry in the style of the book's poems and you publish the AI's poetry, I suspect it might be considered laundering copyright and infringing. Especially if it is substantially similar to specific poems in the book.

I think it comes from the article seeming to be oblivious to all the other alternative android OSes.

I think they may be talking about the "discount" tracker cards. The ones which you fill out an application to get, so you can get the special "discount" (really what the price used to be).

Not a lawyer and it has been a while since I studied this, but when one open source project uses another, they aren't really transforming the others code into a new license.

When GNU/FSF says a license is compatible with the GPL, they mean you can legally use the code with the GPL. More or less, the FSF says if you use a GPL code the entire project has to give end users all the freedoms in the GPL. The LGPL is slightly different in that it can be a separate library. They consider even dynamic linking a GPL project to require both projects to be covered under GPL.

This is why proprietary developers call the GPL "viral." GPL code "infects" all other code with its license. This is the deal you make when you use GPL code, and I think it is a fair one. You don't have to use their code.

I suggest you read the licensing bits of the Free Software Foundation's website. fsf.org and gnu.org

AntennaPod allows streaming podcasts. I don't think it shows that option by default though. You have to view the individual podcast or change the default in the settings for streaming.

It isn't very accurate. I live in Idaho, and my phone's geoip shows up all over the United States. Currently it says Utah, last time I checked.
