@dragonminded I guess with #Autodesk enshittifying their toolchain with more and more expensive subscriptions did force a lot if folks to actually invest time and effort and money into #KiCad.

  • And TBH, they deserve it, because there needs to be real #competition to Autodesk's stuff even if it's just for hobbyists and small-scale projects.

And yes, I still regret not having bought #Eagle when #CadSoft offered a #NonCommercial / #Hobbyist license for €125 one-time, cuz I'd still be rickin' that today.

Dear friends of #noncommercial GAI,

Oh wait, there are none! 🙊

They are all too stoopid to protect themselves, without 'signing in'. Name, email or google account etc. Sign our 'legal' disclaimer, etc. 🤔

PAH! As if!
Pah! Pah! and thrice Pah! :ivory_elephant:

They, (the latest #digital nerd wet dream) then pretend they don't know anything about me, when I ask "What do you know about me?"

Que?

Even a dumb human on Mastodon (me for example) can do better than this. 🦞

This morning I tried 'DDDeepSeek, 'Cluade Anthropic' and 'DDDeepMind'. What a bunch of Bozo's (me included) 🤡

Meanwhile, Real Actual Intelligences (RAI)... of the resistance...🥰

Light shines
birds sing
I am alive
and #GAI is dead as in DODO. 💃 Free as in #FREE the GAI... oh wait! Don't. Just crunch their numb numbers. 👔

Welcome to the Real Whirled ☯️

Have a great day, everyone. Eat food without programmed enjoyment. Breathe real air [lobster top tip]

Does, als alternative to commercial #dating platforms, something like a #fediverse instance or other #noncommercial/ not-centrally-owned platform aimed at finding people for private connections exist which is #usable (↗ reply)?

By "dating" I mean: Not limited to (but not excluding either) #romantic or #sexual encounters, but also to find #friends‍hips, "#platonic"/‍#aromantic #relationships, #buddies for #activities, etc.

And I wish openness for #queer‍ness, #nonbinary, #agender, #lgbt* etc.

Ana María Cetto "thinks #LatinAmerica could…serve as a model for the Global #North [on #OpenAccess publishing]. This would require a change in mentality and #infrastructure, so #universities would take on the work of scientific publishing instead of #commercial #publishers. If universities in the Global North founded their own #noncommercial #journals and publishing #platforms, they would regain control, Cetto says, both editorially and in terms of money saved."

Don't have the spoons today to clearly articulate why the new #Rider #noncommercial #license gives me the heebie-jeebies but, I mean... can't use it now on something that later becomes commercial bc Rider includes some kind of metrics you're forbidden to tamper with...? Eww. 😾 #gamedev #UnrealEngine

German court: LAION’s generative AI training dataset is legal thanks to EU copyright exceptions

The copyright world is currently trying to assert its control over the new world of generative AI through a number of lawsuits, several of which have been discussed previously on Walled Culture. We now have our first decision in this area, from the regional court in Hamburg. Andres Guadamuz has provided an excellent detailed analysis of a ruling that is important for the German judges’ […]

@shaknais Tho #Adobe did so as a.means to kill #UsedLicense market as they had bern forced by a Court in #Germany to allow people to resell their used copies of #CS6 to others.

Same reason why #Autodesk killed #OneTimePurchase #licenses: corporate #greed!

  • And yes I still hate myself for not having bought that "hobbyist #NonCommercial" license for #Eagle when I had the €125 to get it because I could've used that on projects later on. But then again that's yet another readon to learn #KiCAD then...
