You see, when #OSI people talk about "license proliferation" they means "#copyleft proliferation" that is, in fact, the proliferation of licenses that protect the work from appropriation.

In fact, OSI approved over 100 mostly equivalent permissive licenses, among which some masterpiece like the #FairLicense https://opensource.org/license/fair just because they were backed by the right corporation.

They cry about license proliferation only when a #copyleft license conflict with the interests of their largest sponsors.

Indeed the #MongoDB #SSPL was not approved while #Amazon was one of the biggest OSI donor, while #CAL (that was even more "dangerous" as a copyleft according to the same arguments that got SSPL refused) was approved, because no #BigTech ever gave a shit about blockchain stuff (for obvious reasons).

The OSI behaviour over the years shows that they cry about license proliferation only to justify their refusals. So if they don't care, you shouldn't either.

Sure, conflicts among licenses exists (for example, you cannot mix code under the #HackingLicense and code under #GPL), but right now we need first and foremost to widen the overton windows that OSI gatekeepers try desperately to keep closed.

We have urgent need of new licenses that can protect the commons that we create without restricting their spread and evolution.

Code is Speech.

Finally finished all 24 squares for the #CAL blanket I’m working on. This goes with the squares I shared eons ago… still need to do three other types of shapes and then putting it all together. So will be a while longer. Love the colors though.

Well, the expert in the video explains how he tries to spot it, but warns it is now so hard that he needs his digital tools. We can't just eyeball it anymore. Please be careful what you share, and enjoy the video.

Tunisian #crochet - a new rabbit hole?

I learned the basics in the 1970ies, but didn't do much with it. A pillow cover a few years ago was a bit of a fiasco, so again, I put it away.

But today I saw this #CAL (which I mistook for a KAL initially).

I now I want to try again - but with less splitty yarn than last time. And with much more attention to keep an even gauge.

Irgendwie ist #WindowsPro doch ein ziemlich komisches Produkt:
Der Unterschied besteht ausschließlich im Preis und in der Fähigkeit einer #Windowsdomain beizutreten aber:
Um einer Windowsdomäne dann auch wirklich beitreten zu können, muss auf dem Server eine kostenpflichtige #CAL vorhanden sein...

Und dann wäre da noch das Problem des #Autodiscover Setzt man einen W-Pro ohne Domäne ein und versucht Outlook zu benutzen, kann man auf ernsthafte Probleme stoßen für die es keinen workaround gibt.
