    I'd further argue that it would be important if your program does anything useful without the GPL parts; if so, you can probably argue that it is not a derivative work. If you howe…

    Yes, all of the above is on the condition that some distribution happened (and you can prove that). However, distribution also happens in places you might not expect. As a business…

    The end result will most probably violate the GPL. However, this is only realized by each user; you could probably argue that you never test your software and only look at API docu…

    I'm not entirely sure if this is even possible the way copyright in the EU works today. Be that as it may, at least from my perspective what really prohibits me from actually enfor…

    I was simplyfying. What I described is unified in the European Union; however, the outlined distinction is common across the roman-germanic law system whereas the US copyright inte…

    Copyright in Europe fundamentally does not work like Copyright in US. More precisely, the law does not govern the monetary gains possible from copying but rather the author's artis…

    Trademark law always hinges on the question if a reasonable consumer with reasonable knowledge could be expected to distinguish those trademarks or not. HDMIY would most probably n…

    Someone needs to reverse engineer and publish the spec ASAP. This is ridicolous.

    Telephone Line Voltage is anywhere between 48 to 90V DC, depending on where in the world you are and which standards apply.

    Give MediaMonkey a shot. If you play local files, it’s the best player I ever had the pleasure to use.

    Wow, thank you. Of all things I considered happening when posting my snarky winamp remark this was not something I expected. Will check that out.

    I like how they fail to mention that the Apple Music App on Windows is hot garbage riddled with bugs. A few weeks ago they broke reordering of upcoming songs, the "play next" featu…

    Exactly the reason why I am rocking a Broadcast Headset (Beyerdynamic DT-797PV, to be specific) for work calls. It has XLR for the microphone and 1/4" for the headphones. All goes …

    If so, I'd much rather have miniDP. Better connector, better standard, it talks HDMI anyway if you want to, and you will need an adapter anyway.

    That would probably be fine by me if and only if: a) the source code of the secure enclave is 100% open source b) I can compile my own version of it c) I can run my own version of …

    Write first, layout second. Layouting is an entirely different job than writing. For long and very long textual content, I have yet to find automated results that give me control a…

    I still have my local NAS and will in fact be upgrading it sometime this or next year. I don't trust cloud computing with my data, even tough I'd rather forgo the complexity and el…

    Proposing a layout based on US-ANSI is the definition of madness. We can discuss what's on the keys, but my ISO layout stays.

    If it doesn't solve the problem (which it doesn't! Many glaciers are already gone, there's nothing we can do about it), it's not even a bad way, it is just no way to _solve_ the pr…

    I have a few more revolutionary ideas for this. First off, we need to get this environmentally clean. Obviously, this must all be electric. For last mile, battery electric is the o…
