Cats hunt them sometimes... I mean, some cats 😁.

Americans spend way too much on christmas presents.

Shit, I thought most would point at lemmynsfw.com 😒...

You've messed up partitioning and EFI partitions. There are leftovers from Debian and Windows. Wipe both drives, star fresh. Make one EFI partition on the NVME drive, 512MB, and use the rest for the main OS. Use the entire SATA drive for the other boot option (no need for EFI partition on that one). When installing the second OS, skip the bootloader install. Boot into the main OS, set grub to search for other OSes installed on the laptop and update grub afterwards. The second OS should appear in grub's menu.

Enterprise users with the "ExtensionManifestV2Availability" policy turned on will get an extra year of Manifest V2 compatibility.

Who are these enterprise users 🤨 🤔...

I had a particular project in mind, I should have mentioned earlier, Fraunhoffer's FDK-AAC. It's open source, but the license is... tricky...

Then it's not Open Source. So, which is it?

It is open source, you can find the source on GitHub and other git repos (their repos, not clones made by others).

The only midly-relevant question here becomes: did you use their source code to implement yours, or did you use public knowledge of the algorith etc (up to and including "white boarding") to reimplement it?

Yes, I would use their source code as a reference, as in, study it and try to replicate what they have done, but in the process, deliberately doing things differently (sometimes it may be more efficient, other times it may not) so I would avoid legal consiquences.

Basically, their license says "Here's the source, do whatever you want with it for your own personal use. You can not share binaries of it with anyone, individuals or companies. You can not use it for commercial use for free, you have to pay an implementation license. You can use our source to make sources for other OSes (their source is meant to be used in Android), but the same license has to apply to your implementation, and you can't redistribute binaries, just the source."

If you are selling cheese sandwiches, you can not sue "stolen profits" from someone who is selling bacon sandwiches just because their clients asked you for bacon sandwiches and you said no.

Basically, I'm giving away free bacon sandwiches, while the guy at the stand next to me is selling them. They're not exactly the same, but the end result is the same, mine feed the people just as much as his do.

My main concern is hygene, nothing more (spread of jerms and viruses)... other than that, I have no problem living with all sorts of insects.

I was in Egypt once and stayed in a trailer in the middle of the desert (long story 😂). Anyway, the trailer was kinda dusty, so I decided to clean it a little bit. I pull the bed, a big fucking spider underneath it... OK, I guess we're not cleaning inder the bed 😂. Pull a drawer, a scorpio inside... OK... so, that about sums up my cleaning for the day 🤣.

My point is, I wasn't scared of them. They attack only of you do stuff to them, you stay out of their way, they won't do amything to you ☺️.

Influencers/charmers were always a thing, was it not?

Maybe, but not to the extent they are today.

I think out all of the answers, this one is one of the main reasons why people might feel more fake nowadays than before.

What if, let's say, that person has something to hide... nothing dangerous or that might cause harm to others, something that society frowns upon. My reasoning is that, it would be OK to be "fake" in those circumstances.

Mhm... OK, in that case, let's say I reimplement Fraunhoffer's FDK-AAC. It's open source, but you can't redistribute binaries of it, you can only compile it for your own personal needs and you can't commercially use it for free. So, let's say my reimplementation is licensed under BSD or GPL and I allow everything, even commercial use for free. That would cut on the profit Fraunhoffer is making from their product, but they can't legally persue me because none of their code is in my reimplementation 🤨? That seems kinda off...
