Technically they didn't make DOS but bought it, rebrand it then had to support it.

I'm just going to acknowledge rather than celebrate.

This is how you treat wanna be despots and dictators. Remove them from power, put them on trial then throw them in jail for their crimes.

Spoilers work like this:

You need the word "spoiler" after the first colons and the colons have to be at the start of the lines.

I looked at them when I was ready to ditch Spotify. The only reason I didn't go with them was because Tidal and Deezer were cheaper.

The right to repair. It's going to require the ability to make changes to the software on the vehicle. At a minimum the ability to replace the public encryption keys used to communicate with the servers. The bootloader and software is probably locked behind signing keys; so you need to be able to disable or add your own keys. I doubt anyone has access to the full protocols used to communicate with the servers. So, the full technical standard need to be released (which is never going to happen) or reversed engineered through unencrypted traffic analysis and reverse engineering the software.

A good right to repair law could require some of that be releasable while the company is still active or all if the company goes belly up. IIRC there was a smaller EV company that went bankrupt and there was a concern that once the servers were shutdown the vehicles would be bricked. Not sure what happened in the end. In any case, cars as IOT is the stupidest idea ever created.

Jay-Z sold most of his majority stake to Jack Dorsey/Square but not all. He retained 20% of his shares and AFAIK is still involved with Tidal.

Qobuz is another music streaming and download service. I haven't tried it yet but have kept it on my radar.

Proton CEO is supporting the fascists.

Does Revolt have federation?

As of right now, Revolt does not feature any federation and it is not in our feature roadmap.

[...]

What can I do with Revolt and how do I self-host?

[...]

You can self-host Revolt by:

• Using Docker Compose and our recommended guide.
• Building individual components yourself from the source code.

It's basically a bunch of islands.

Don't poop for 3 days

Found the article where the screenshot came from, and wow it's even more infuriating! The VideoLAN folks tried to work with them for months, and Unity seems to have cranial rectal inversion.
