Abused the Senate traditions to advance his party for decades, culminating in a refusal to see dem nominations to the supreme court and then fast tracking repub nominees resulting in the lopsided court that has accelerated the collapse of equal rights in the usa and the speedy rise of corpofascism

"No right to relicense this project" - on changing the license of Mark Pilgrim's chardet from LGPL to MIT after a vibe-coded rewrite in c/technology@lemmy.ml

If the llm they used was trained on the original code, the result was not legally rewritten. To change licensing without buy in from all original authors, the new code must be fully original from spec. Ignoring the legal definitions for convenience opens the door for corporations to steal open source and copyleft materials and strip away the licensing requirements.

What happened to my wood glue? (europe.pub)
 

A few years back I bought a big jug of Titebond2 glue, figuring it'd last me a decade fulfilling my occasional need to make some wood stick together better than nails or pocket holes. I store it on my back porch, which is indoors but only gets climate control from the blower return in the room, so the room hovers between about 50F (10C) and 90F (32C) depending on the season.

I keep it capped when not pouring it into a smaller bottle that's easier to manage.

I didn't use it last year.

This morning I had a need, so I opened the cabinet and the attached picture is what I see. The glue has gone from an off-white to this translucent reddish-brown, and it won't flow out of the bottle.

I was able to squish a decent amount onto a piece of scrap wood, and smear glue into the joints, then wipe off the excess - but it looks like I need to go buy more glue. I'm not happy about it, but I'll own that I messed up and should have bought a smaller bottle, it's on me.

Can anyone tell me what might have happened? I tried to be careful with it, but clearly something happened that I didn't plan for. What can I do to prevent this from happening in the future?

Thanks!

If Gemini is so harmless and helpful, why not make it opt-in instead of opt-out, and why is opting out so awkward? Every few months I have to log in and opt-out from new crap I didn't want and didn't agree to. I'm very close to putting on my tinfoil hat and going full homeserver.
