For a FOSS enthusiast, this is a total non-starter. We don’t migrate to Linux just to swap one proprietary black box for another. If I cannot audit the code that sits between my binaries and the internet, I am not interested.
That’s hardcore. Are there any network cards with fully open firmware? How does one learn to audit code for how many layers there are to this? Does this person has time for anything other than auditing code? Or is this and other claims a satire?


How much money exactly? Last time I checked it was just salary for a couple of devs. That’s least they can do while taking 30% cut of nearly all PC game sales. That’s the kind of money that goes into significantly subsidising console hardware for comparison. They benefit so much from the work of others that went into Linux, Wine and the ecosystem already that they should be giving way more in return.


How is that relevant to anything I’ve said. It’s like this article, „forget what this news is about, let’s dunk on Denuvo”. I guess they know their audience.


Thank you, I found it - just commenting on how entirely unhelpful this article was.


Correct but irrelevant to what I’ve said, which is that the performance impact of Denuvo is usually minimal. There’s a couple of very bad cases that got a lot of publicity but there’s boatloads of Denuvo games running fine.
It’s cool Denuvo was cracked. It’ll be fixed eventually and the never ending game of cat and mouse continues.


There is 0 details on specifics of how Denuvo was broken. Article goes into detail why Denuvo is bad and not much more (which is also debatable because vast majority of Denuvo implementations do not cause performance impact).


Anthropic claims that. Sucks for them now, but boy did it do wonders for their marketing.


It is Anthropic’s whole business model though.


What if license and copyright was washed by using an LLM to translate Claude into another language?
Either way, Claude can’t be copyrighted because it’s a product of an LLM.


I actually downloaded the PS3 version of DNF off Myrient so I can vouch that’s not it 👀


I’m not worried about backups since all of Myrient content originated elsewhere. The true value of Myrient was how accessible and fast it was and that’s the hard part that this project hasn’t demonstrated yet.


Predictable schedule of stable releases with relatively up to date packages for most of commonly used software and drivers.


They list iTerm2 as affected but list Linux-specific terminal emulators only as replacement even if there are plenty of those on MacOS. At this point I think those lists are prepared by LLM boosters too.


Given that the incompetent leadership is here to stay it’s best to adjust to the situation and not make it worse. Moral victories mean very little compared to getting things done.


Are they pirates if they paid for it? Police working on behalf of corpos for chilling effect. I’m paying for YouTube and watch pirated content hosted there all the time.


Yeah, fair use apparently doesn’t work the same way in France. Regardless of this consumers can still claim they thought they were purchasing a legitimate product. Do you check if YouTube has rights to videos you’re watching there? Am I liable for watching Star Wars Holiday Special on Youtube?


Given that everyone is innocent until proven guilty, an excuse can be all it takes sometimes, especially in a civil suit.


Sure, but the users of the service could also claim they got scammed with a counterfeit product. Those selling the service are the only ones worth pursuing from the practical and ethical standpoint.
Not only copyright is dead but so is licensing of things in general. This means there’ll be less original work from both commercial and non-commercial projects. Commercially there won’t be ways to profit so why bother. On the libre licensing front why would you contribute code to GPL licensed projects or release art under Creative Commons if it’s going to be license washed anyway?
