Is that really up to some random superintendent to decide. In most countries it would have to be an act of parliament.

Well, the US is set up that way...MOST local power is reserved for the States and the localities within.

The Federal govt is set up to be weak, at least constitutionally it is only supposed to have the limited, enumerated powers and responsibilities listed in the US Constitution.

That has been bastardized greatly over the years, but it also still largely applies.

For the most part, the Feds can't order the states to so jack shit....they can coerce them by trying to withhold tax monies...etc....but that's largely it.

Oh, so you are just going to fly the confederate flag

Why?

Are you trying to start a Lynyrd Skynyrd concert or something....?

If you want "as dumb as possible", the search keyword for that is "static site generator". Then you can redirect /wp-admin/ to Automattic's front page.

People still develop new games for the Master System (which uses a Z80), the Genesis (which uses a Z80 as a sound coprocessor), and especially the Game Boy (whose Sharp SM83 CPU isn't exactly a Z80 but is similar). And they're selling these games both as ROM filess on itch.io and as cartridges.

I mean, will it censor you if you ask about the Chinese premier looking like Winnie the Pooh or tienaman (sp?) square....will it say it can't answer that...or give answers that only praise china?

Genuine question with potential genuine concerns....

I think it's pretty f-ed up to say a company has to give their IP and trade secrets to their competitors (aka, your friends) so they can take their business, and then call it fairness. It isn't, it's theft.

Kinda sounds like China's business model, eh?

However, why couldn't Google just yank their servers out of the EU..and station them all around the EU. Sure, there might be a little performance hit, but at least they'd not be compelled to follow the EU rules, and I doubt the EU will firewall all things google, you know?

The advertising clause wasn't "non-free" as much as a practical problem that was incompatible with the GPL's ban on additional restrictions. It was largely removed when much popular software switched from the 4-clause original BSD license to the 3-clause or 2-clause version.

The appropriate copyright notice clause remained in 3-clause and 2-clause BSD licenses. This clause is also present in GPLv2 and GPLv3.

"She's got huge tracts of land!"

Wait....is that, is that...Sir Lancelot I see in the distance, running towards our castle....?

A life support unit for a cunt.

Unfortunately, the pleasurable part of that equation always comes with the other unpredictable part.

They have personality, and actual affection.
