Reading some comments I don’t know whether some use fallacious arguments deliberately or are simply incapable of logical reasoning.

I don't see censorship here could you enlighten me? It doesn't seem like they are trying to censor specific topics is it?

I'm not sure about that and if it is so, it's very recent. Playing online isn't bad and addictive per say I would argue though. My comment was more in response to someone who seeme…

Chess is healthy you get to go outside and meet people to play with, engage in your local club. Some online platforms make the thing addictive.

It is certainly not open and doesn't compare to ST2110. I was mentioning it for compressed video streaming.

Challenging but certainly doable with kernel bypass technologies and dedicated CPU cores.

It's worth mentioning NDI (Network Device Interface) as well, which is widely used in the Pro-AV for transporting compressed video and audio over IP.

You might also want to mention AMWA NMOS, which is increasingly used alongside SMPTE 2110 in setups like this. NMOS (Networked Media Open Specifications) defines open, vendor-neutr…

Hi! I have been happily using Ardour as a hobbyist since version 5. At the same time I also started learning Pure Data. I was wondering how difficult it would be to implement a fea…

Real communication isn't bound by official bodies, but it also doesn't work by everyone "just saying what they say" and hoping for the best...

Then of course you are free to count 1024 bytes and call that a kB. Pretending everyone else will agree on that is a different thing.

Well at least Microsoft is a platinum member of the Linux Foundation for many years...

It is true that Linux-based distributions have this thing in common: the Linux kernel. There have been some GNU/Hurd variants though...

Joking aside, I often hear people say "they should" when talking about GNU/Linux (for example: "they should just standardize on one audio stack"), as if there were a central author…

Audio latency on Linux was already very low long before PipeWire, thanks to JACK.

That is very true. But because it is open source, one can request for packaging, contribute a package, use a third-party repository, or build it from source when needed.

For distro-packaged FOSS, binary compatibility isn't really a problem. Distributions like Debian already resolve dependencies by building from source and keeping a coherent set of …

Paying makes sense when you actually need/use those services. Paying "because you can" feels wrong to me. If the goal is to support FOSS, there are many more ways to contribute tha…

That's what I like in the US: the servers are so friendly... and yes, I know it’s all for the tip.

I've gotten into the habit of replacing the accented "é" in my first name with a plain ASCII "e" in forms to avoid troubles. The worse part is that the form is usually accepted, th…

You're conflating freedom of use with moral endorsement. FOSS grants freedom, not ethical approval of every use.

You are correct but in the context of free software, the FSF has been explicit about this ("The freedom to run the program as you wish, for any purpose"). Publishing software under…

For a lot of people, FOSS is also very much the why. It’s not just a practical tool—it represents core principles like freedom, transparency, and collaboration. Those values are th…

Wouldn't you want the code generated by those models be released under those permissive licenses as well? Is that what you mean by other derived artifacts?
