My understanding (IANAL) is that the GPL restricts how you /redistribute modified versions/ of the software. So I'd argue that it passes all requirements.

Can you copy and redistribute it without restriction? Sure.

Can you modify it and install the modified version on your computer without restriction? Sure.

The only thing you cannot do is redistribute the modified version. If you do that, there are some restrictions in place: you have to provide also the source of that modified version.

Didn't HN have a "no clickbait titles" rule?

Please provide a link to this post you found, so I can tell which one you think is a citation to a source. If you want some examples of recent posts that should have a source but don't, here they are:

How far down do you have to scroll on https://grapheneos.social/@GrapheneOS to find a citation to a source for one of their claims?

One of the main criteria to differentiate "rants" from "correcting falsehoods" is proper citing of sources. In the case of Grapheneos, unfortunately I often see very few sources in what they post online.

(But, if you ignore the rants, that's a fantastic OS.)

You have a point, but it is very ironic that this sounds a lot like the old argument "you must still learn to compute by hand because you won't have a calculator with you all the time".

As the OP discusses, the current state of the standard formally disallows it: the SI specifies that hertzes are only to be used for periodic phenomena, and becquerels only for radioactivity.

Excel still translates keywords in 2026.

I don't recommend tennis balls for a beginner: they bounce everywhere, and you'll spend most of your time chasing the balls rather than juggling. Cheap juggling balls are around 10$.

Why would only incompetent users expect something that "just works"?

Jolla had ties with Russian state companies, I wouldn't be surprised if they planted backdoors all over the place.

And in any case if you use Jolla without the Android emulation layer (so Google again), the app ecosystem is as barren as the Siberian wasteland.

This is still very mild opposition, the equivalent of a "strongly worded letter". What we should expect from a serious pope is excommunicating [1] those who start wars.

Writing prompt: On June 1, the ministry for defense stops issuing these permits. No one knows why, but wild speculation ensues.

In principle, one could train the AI to insert ads in its answers. So no, if you only do inference locally with an open-weight model you are still not in control.

Despite the shortage, RAM is still cheaper than mathematicians.

This pipe dream will soon be replaced by "let's have the first degree of judgment be ChatGPT; human judges should only deal with appeals".

Can you use git's Copilot from the command line? If you can't, then you have nothing to opt out from.

By that logic, you can't use any user input to train an LLM, because what if they decide to write their own name.

Let me add that the typical GrapheneOS user will probably prefer to install the OS themselves rather than trust what comes preinstalled.

It's still less space for other things in the L1 cache, isn't it?

If your goal is reducing the number of multiplications, I imagine it would make sense to factor that polynomial into degree-1 and degree-2 factors.

It's abs(x) only over the reals, for complex numbers it's more complicated.

So basically a homing missile?

We don't really know yet, that's just speculation.

Malus is also Latin for "apple tree", coincidentally.

Are these "entities" named and shamed somewhere? I just scanned the paper but couldn't find explicit mentions.

Contactless payments work in Graphene OS. Not with Google Pay, but with other apps like Curve and Paypal.

I paid for my lunch with Curve Pay on GrapheneOS today.

A bio is not proper disclosure: it is hidden behind a link that you have to click, and it can be changed at any moment without leaving traces.

Surely you mean phone operating system landscape? There are plenty of phone manufacturers.
