If you were willing to spend money, why not just get it from RH directly.

Bottles is pretty good. It’s available on flathub.
It’s basically how widevine works. The hardware “secure” boots the OS, and the OS only loads signed code. And there is a chain of custody all the way to the hardware, so the software that communicates with the server can attest that it is the same as what they expect.
The simple explanation is that they wish to further erode property ownership by the proletariat by locking down operating systems such that they can’t do as their owners wish, but only what the corporation wants.
The likely retaliation RH/IBM would take is simply banning the account, not starting a lawsuit immediately. However, rights holders may attempt sue before or after such an event, but likely after.
RH thinks they have the right to distribute code in this manner, and they can keep doing so until challenged in court. You can do actions in general without asking the court every time, I think the same applies here as well.
I personally think it is a violation in a strict sense, but at the same time I don’t think it really matters too much realistically. Stream is upstream RHEL, and they are very similar, and at some points in time, should be identical. It’s also not clear what you get exactly by suing RH/IBM. The likely case is that they settle or rule to have that section removed from the ToS.
Maybe, but in practice nothing happens. Microsoft has had numerous issues reported to them before, years ago, and the issue reported to them was never fixed or taken seriously. Then years later, the issue is sometimes rediscovered and they find the report from years earlier, and nothing happens.
Until legislation gets passed to force companies to take liability of their software, nothing will change.
Tbh, just stop using software well past it’s prime, or pay the cost of developing the fixes.
Everything can’t be free, at some point it’s gotta cost something.
I more or less was just looking for a general survey of what other people used.
I agree installing a binary for this small kind of thing might be excessive.
Google and other search engines can crawl lemmy just fine. The only downside is that the information will be split across domains unless google puts in a special case for lemmy/fediverse or something.
Email isn’t that secure anyway (don’t use email if your life or freedom depends on it), so I don’t see that as much as a downside.
Could be a bad dock or usb controller, try a different one. Otherwise just snap the sata connector off, and most people will not bother to get anything off.
Transmission has a proper daemon. The CLI isn’t very ergonomic for manual use, but there are various frontends you can use.
I don’t think NixOS is used by many companies, so it’s not really a skill that will likely lead to employment. Most companies use containers and tools like ansible which is accomplishing something similar to nix.
Hardware encoders are common and “cheap” these days. They may not be as good as properly tuned software based encoders, but they are fast.
It might come down to what is a restriction maybe. Support is not part of the GPL, so putting a restriction to close a users account might not be a violation, but it very well could be a violation.
They can do both, and if their stance is at all ideologically motivated, then it is necessary to focus on more than just the low hanging fruit of doing reviews.
The free software movement is more than just the free software existing. It is also congruent to the laws that permit it and extending rights
Right to repair is about more than simply fixing things. It’s about going after companies and lobbying to get actual rights enshrined into law.
