  • It was written as part of my work.

    check your contract, you might not own the code and your organization may have a process to determine how to license something.

    to your other questions (IANAL)

    1. prior work wont be licensed, meaning no one but the owner of the work is allowed to do anything with versions prior to the license
    2. you don’t have to, but i can’t see a reason why you should not.
    3. GPL might mean that other work depending on gpl licensed code has to be licensed in a gpl compatible way, depending on how exactly you depend on it and how you distribute your dependencies. MIT/BSD is easier here, if you don’t plan to license everything with the GPL anyway.



  • And no, I have not tested it because I don’t know how I’m actually supposed to do that.

    depends on what you backup and how.

    if it’s just “dumb” files (videos, music pictures etc.), just retrieve them from your backups and check if you can open the files.

    complex stuff? probably try to rebuild the complex stuff from a backup and check if it works as expected and is in the state you expect it to be in. how to do that really depends on the complex stuff.

    i’d guess for most people it’s enough to make sure to backup dumb files and configurations, so they can rebuild their stuff rather than being able to restore a complex system in exactly the same state it was in before bad things happened.







  • It’s absent in the biologist sure, she is driven by curiosity, and the loss of her partner.

    But the Director? She saw numerous highly skilled people enter the are without returning, but still thought she could somehow make a difference and ultimately understand what area x is.

    Lowry still thinks it’s something he could, and only him could deal with, so he keeps messing with the missions and has everyone brainwashed.

    Control atleast starts out thinking he has the reigns in hand, but he atleast begins to understand how ununderstandable the situation is to him.

    But to be honest, i found it really hard to get anything from the books where i could say: “yeah, that’s definitely something this is about” it has many themes and layers and it’s just so thoroughly weird that i am not really sure about anything i experienced reading it.



  • Most clients are web browsers and support for torrents in http is the same as for every other file.

    So that would only give us a use for torrents as a form of content distribution plattform to get the actual files closer to the client.

    In cases where we have actual non browser clients: i like to curate what i am distributing and don’t want to distribute anything i happen stumble upon or would you be willing to store and more importantly share everything you find on 4chan or that might show up in your mastodon feed?
