And I was just asking yesterday what would you feel if someone evil used your FOSS software: https://lemmy.world/post/16898871

FOSS programmers, what do you think of horrible people using your software? (lemmy.world)
 

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.

Commandline memes (lemmy.world)
 

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.

Reddit Outlook-style frontend to make you look like you're working while browsing (github.com)
 

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.

Great prompt OP. It's great to reflect and share those moments.

For me it's a management trick that I realized after having my files (computer ones and physical ones) all over the place.

You don't have to have a file for everything. Instead create a dump.txt file in every directory instead of having few paragraphs scattered in files.

This way I separate "organizing files" from actually typing out my thoughts.
