I just learned that Nmap is almost GPL except that they revoked the license specifically for SCO group for their SCO–Linux disputes.

This got me thinking, what do open source programmers think of evil companies or horrible people using their software?

Don't get me wrong, FOSS software by its nature can't be controlled or strictly prevented of being used. But in case of companies like SCO, that is a thing that at least can cause them headache and they risk getting into legal trouble. A programmer for example can modify GPL to make so that his software can't be used by Microsoft or Facebook, but it is GPL for everybody else.

I found out that this tool http://www.convertlit.com/ provides a program with a funny name. I wonder if there are similar programs with offensive names or puns like this one. For example, I remember reading a fortune output saying something along the lines of

man Why did you get divorced? 
man: Too many arguments.

And of course, there is the cliche touch grass.

I found this old project from 2018 that redesigned Reddit into a frontend similar to Outlook. Would be fun to see this on Lemmy especially since we have a lot of frontends.

If your employer forced you to either use Google or Microsoft or some other tech company (Apple, Samsung, etc.) what would be a better choice?

Which company is more compliant in terms of privacy or generally better and why?

I was thinking about Google since there were new regulations enforced by government and at least I don't have to pay for Google Docs, unlike Microsoft where I pay and I'm still spied on.

For me it's Naval.

I wanna get into self-hosting and looking for inspiration.

How would a real gentleman say it?

Muscle memory had me type !Remindme.. what are bots that currently work on Lemmy?

I used to follow on Reddit:

• GetMotivated
• GetStudying
• GetDisciplined
• Productivity
• Etc

are there similar communities or Mastodon accounts that you suggest?

Looks like this is still not implemented. But are there Android apps with this feature?
