Do one for software licenses, would be interesting to see differences between something like bsd and gpl.

[@swordkorn]

GPL effectively calls for everything registered under the license to be fully available, warts and all, for anyone to view, use, change or rewrite. It's effectively a system that simultaneously encourages collaboration between software developers to improve code and programs for end users to enjoy and for no fee of course, whilst effectively stripping it out from under your feet entirely with no say in it. BSD's license is a little bit more of a grey area. BSD is free in the sense of go download it and install it and use it. No one will stop you doing so. But if you're plan is to use BSD for commercial purposes then the BSD guys expect contributions back into BSD be that through some custom or unique system they can freely use with now zero restrictions (ZFS... look into that if you're interested...) or financial funding to support the maintenance of the source code. Sony and the Playstation OS is a good example of that. If you want more information about BSD I recommend Bryan Lunduke talking to one of the key BSD guys here on KZbin. As for GPL... just look around GitHub at some larger free to use software projects. You'll see what I mean. Hope that helps!

[@ShiroCh_ID]

@@swordkorn so theres a diference between GPL and BDD

[@absalomdraconis]

@@ShiroCh_ID : Very much so. There's also the AGPL, which attempts to extend GPL rights to people who e.g. communicate with a web server via a web browser, instead of just the people who directly run the web server.

[@absalomdraconis]

@@swordkorn : The last time I analyzed the GPL it only applied to people _using_ the software, and so there were technically some categories of people who _were not_ covered, and others who _might not_ be covered.

[@swordkorn]

@Jared Maddox : It’s all in the fine print. If you ever read through the developer terms and conditions on the GPL it states a lot about the source code having to be freely available for the purposes of collaboration and or cross platform deployment. On paper it’s more to sound like let’s be open and honest with everything and allow everyone to view it as they deem worthy. In practice that can result in the project spiralling out of control with another key individual working so hard on it that they effectively take ownership of the project and you get elbowed out. I’m not saying that BSD’s approach is any better and I’m also not saying that the system as a whole is fundamentally flawed but it’s swings and roundabouts. Do you sit back and watch the corporate fat cats take away our basic privacy rights or do we stand up and say no even if it’s in these small ways and attempt to get to a better place with technology where no one dictates how you use your machines or what you’re allowed to do with them (not talking criminality in that but hopefully you know what I mean)

[@Carewolf]

@@van-hieuvo8208 Yes, you can in theory charge for free software, but is not a very liable business model as the license gives your customers the right to pass it on, so they could always undercut you. The net effect is that GPL effectively forces the software to also be free as in beer, even if it only literally forces it to be free as in freedom. Contrary to this is the BSD license, which is much easierly abused, and sold for instance for Sony Playstation without contributing anything back the people they copied from.

I finally switched Windows 10 for Ubuntu as a development environment. After a couple of days, I have to say that that Linux-based workflow is just so much better when you are doing anything other than gaming. Doing many things conveniently through the terminal is better in any way, compared to the clunky Windows-way of downloading a bunch of installers to get the software you want installed. I might experiment more with different distributions in the future, but as I have more experience with Ubuntu, it felt like the right place to start from. Of course when I game occasionally, Windows is still the way to go. For that I have Ubuntu and Windows on separate disks, so I can just easily choose which one to boot when powering my PC.

[@EduPascualSaez]

One thing this video doesn't cover and is often missunderstood about the GPL: if you modify a piece of code that you got under a GPL license, you are not required to distribute it. The license defines requirements on how you can distribute your modified code, but there is still the option to not distribute it at all. Many medium and large companies do in-house development that doesn't get distributed outside the company, and that's perfectly fine with the GPL. Such users get to integrate (at their own effort and cost) improvements and innovations from the community into their build, but by not releasing the code they miss on the oportunity to have the community improve upon it. This trade-off actually makes sense in some scenarios, mainly when dealing with very purpose-specific developments, which can be quite common in many such companies.

At 0:08, I assume the ground computers because the rovers actually run VxWorks.

VxWorks OS is used in Mars Rover.

I use Linux mint on a touchscreen notebook 95% of the day. For monitoring multiple web server and VPS. Learning aircrack-ng and python is a skill everyone should have. Python to automate all your task. And aircrack-ng is just well... free wifi anywhere.

Thank you Linus Media Group for sharing and providing knowledge on the Linux Community. 👍😁 have a nice day Linus.

I would like to note that the "Free" in Free and Open Source software doesn't mean free as in free beer. While it is kind of included in there it actually means free as in freedom. Kind of sucks that in english those are the same words

Tech quickie about Linux? Hint at the 10 things better about Linux video they were asking about last year for LTT coming out soon?

Technically Torvalds didn't decide on his own to register the Linux trademark, it was recommended to him by other members of the Linux community as some companies had started to use it in ways they didn't approve of (I don't remember the exact circumstances, the misuse might not have even started yet, it might have been a preventative measure). Torvalds was reluctant but was eventually talked into it.

I thought GPL2 allows the source code to be released under any newer version of GPL including GPL3...

Another use case I’ve seen are inflight entertainment systems. I know this because once my mother had get the one she used to be rebooted and I observed the Linux penguin on the boot screen.

Linux is everywhere. Recently I dissected an Qihoo 360 brand webcam and found that it runs on Linux.

nothing about linux, but is a monitor without a refresh-rate (as in it displays without the need to refresh is technology permits) any good?
