Happy to report that my first PCB layout is barely started and already an unworkable mess. It's quite fun to figure #KiCad out on my own with no tutorials though, the only thing I had to look up so far was how to move a component to the other board side 😁

@godotengine @nixCraft Now all you need is to drop gdwlroots onto it to make it an actual functional desktop environment 😄️

@floooh @mcc @PsySal It doesn't necessarily have to be linked dynamically - you can for example link statically and distribute compiled object files with instructions for user how to relink.

@mcc @PsySal GPL does not forbid commercial usage.

@pecet@pol.social Na PC: pierwszy kontakt to też któryś Knoppix, ale chyba tylko bootowany z płyty. Potem po kolei: Mandrake 10.1, Mandriva 2006, Ubuntu 6.06, Debian sid, Arch.
Na telefonie: OpenMoko 2007.2, SHR, Maemo 5, PureOS 9.
Na serwerach: zawsze i tylko Debian 🤪️

@b0rk #1 doesn't make any sense and easily falls apart at edge cases, if you think this way you'll sooner or later make yourself confused; #2 can be useful when reasoning or talking about repo topology as a kind of mental shortcut (and actually applies to any commit, not just those pointed to by branches); #3 is the truth.

@foone Designed for single density, but can be pushed to double density under right conditions

@williamtries @LeoDJ @techbeard @dylanvanassche 15W is enough for that

@alex @touk I don't think they would have much trouble depicting a steamboat regardless of the eponymous cartoon's copyright status 😁

@panic @colingourlay It's an interesting hardware that I'd definitely spend time making fun games for, as that's just what I do with other platforms. I've been eyeing this one since the very beginning, it could be neat for game jams. However, this platform lacks an essential feature - that feature being "an acceptable license". Life is simply too short to waste on proprietary platforms, for many reasons - both philosophical and practical.

@panic @colingourlay For starters, not making the platform essentially dead when the rights owner goes down would be nice. Nobody else can host a copy of the SDK.

Then, not having to require my users to use non-free software in order to modify, compile and deploy my projects would be appreciated as well.

Last but not least, all software is buggy and SDKs are not an exception. When I stumble upon a bug in it, I should be able to inspect it, debug, fix and share the fix with others.

@panic @colingourlay So yup, it's sadly still non-free: non-redistributable, non-modifiable and prohibiting development of other SDKs.

@colingourlay @panic Is their SDK still on a weird non-free license?

@hrw @haeckerfelix You can't fight the Bunny. You must embrace the Bunny.
