Shinyhunters is an AI masquerading as a teen. Do you want to change your answer?
As "a teen"? The funny thing about stupid people (such as yourself) is that when you post bullshit it is so easily verifiable as such. Even if it was AI, there have already been multiple members of ShinyHunters arrested around the world, some of which admitted to being members of the group, and who thus far have not been teens.
I do want to change my answer:
Before: Fuck all the way off with your crime excusing bullshit.
After: Fuck all the way off with your crime excusing bullshit and be less of a retard.

Which brings me to my point: Python should be frozen as is. No more development. Tinkering with it just because some people want to contribute and get visibility in open source is not a good cost/benefit outcome for humanity.
Because that worked well for Perl right? Nothing like stagnation to secure the firmament.

Because the EMP will go around an AM radio while taking out FM ones?

You are arguing on the level of "you are holding it wrong". Pathetic and marks you as not very smart. Which, incidentally, makes you the primary LLM target group.

Comment Re:You need this for an emergency (Score 1) 145
For all the people saying "hurr, durr, emergencies!", I've been around for awhile and never in my entire life have I needed an AM radio "for emergencies", and that includes in earthquakes, floods, tornadoes, and a (small) tsunami. I carried out an informal poll of a few folks who have been around for rather longer than I have, including one whose life experience goes back almost to the dawn of radio, and none of them could recall ever needing an AM radio "for emergencies" except for the near-centenarian who remembers listening to the radio for warnings about which city the bombers were heading for so they could go down to the cellar. In addition, apart from the near-centenarian, none of them actually owned a radio, or at least new where it was and whether it worked, and the near-centenarian only uses it to listen to Internet streaming because "the AM stations are all rubbish".
Apologies for injecting facts and data into the discussion. As you were.

Translation: We are looking at our options on how to extract as much money as possible from the users of this software.
Or: We eliminated the positions necessary to merge the changes coming from the outside, and we will support the customers in house, if there are any paying customers at all. After that, we will close the project for good.
Comment Hostile forks ftw (Score 3, Interesting) 11
I had an idea a while back of launching an org called "Hostile Fork" that basically gets these hostile de-FOSSings and relaunches them from the last known FOSS commit, stripping out all the anti user shit (user limits for "community" versions etc), de-branding them and trying to find new maintainers. This was in response to almost every non relational database I used succumbing to management bullshit and going closed source, or using the GPL as shareware by locking important functions behind "license checks" (motherfuckers if you put that license check in GPL code I *am* entitled to remove it). Im still bitter about ArangoDB
In the end, I have neither the time resources to put into it, or the money/legal resources to defend it. But I still think it'd be a great idea.
