behringer··on Everyone Is Stealing TV
That's because we do feel entitled to it. This century is the first in human history where people in power have decided that once something is created it's IP that belongs to the creator for well over a hundred years and maybe even forever.

Frankly, IP should last 7 years, 14 at the most.

Why are we paying for Alf year after year, decade after decade?

Why are we required to pay for stuff while also being advertised to and having our data sold?

Now when you do buy something, you're buying a revokable license you can't even buy it and own it.

We'll if buying isn't ownership, then pirating it isn't stealing it. Plain and simple.

behringer··on SparkFun Officially Dropping AdaFruit due to CoC Violation
that's not the point as far as I can tell. The parent was saying the remarks were oversharing, not false.
behringer··on SparkFun Officially Dropping AdaFruit due to CoC Violation
Are you saying they're lying? That's a different issue than what I understood him to mean "it's unprofessional". It's flat out illegal.
behringer··on SparkFun Officially Dropping AdaFruit due to CoC Violation
Also it implies that the other side has already made public accusations that sparkfun wants to set straight. What's that info, if any?
behringer··on SparkFun Officially Dropping AdaFruit due to CoC Violation
nobody wants corporate speak. They are saying they are cutting ties and it's not their fault. No harm in that if it's true.
behringer··on Tailscale state file encryption no longer enabled by default
I'm not sure what makes any of this "surprising". Each ticket reads like "we replaced the computer that tailscale was on, it doesn't work anymore" pikachu face.

Yeah, that was a feature and the exact reason why we use TPMs. I guess it should have been better advertised.

I think buyers just understand the value of a battery that they've cared for and babied compared to a battery with unknown history.
behringer··on Are Apple gift cards safe to redeem?
The best thing you can do is ask the distributor or publisher. It shows them this is wanted and gets you answers.
behringer··on Ford kills the All-Electric F-150
The math doesn't work when you calculate the same thing based on buying low mileage used cars or leases.

You're throwing large amounts of equity away every 4 years.

Also electric cars get killed on the depreciation curve.
