It still has one eighth the users of world. World is just absolutely huge compared to the rest.

What do you think the other ones are running on? i386s in someone’s basement?
Yeah, that was my point.
This isn’t Reddit, there’s no account-wide tracking of special Internet points to worry about.
I’d assume they have similar sick fantasies about murdering/torturing humans in a similar fashion.
That is a huge leap. Because of the nature of the work, most people I’ve met who work in animal agriculture just don’t see their livestock as conscious in any way, let alone at all equivalent to a human.
You’d have to ask the developer, but it seems like they did not understand the license they released it under. They complained of people “plagiarizing” their source code after releasing it under the MIT license, which allows people to take the source and use it however they want.
That’s just not what really happens though. Look at Robert Broglia’s emulators. They are open source and paid, and are some of the most popular paid emulators on the play store despite the fact that people could just download the source from his site and compile them.
The point is that with a closed source app your only support for that statement is trust in the developer, while if it was open source we would actually be able to confirm that.
Not at all. Being open source allows the community of users and other developers to suggest improvements to the code base.
And you can still sell an app that is open source.
You can release your source code without making it freely available for people to use. Not every open source app is GPL licensed.
This paid vs open source thing is silly. They are not antonyms. You can still charge for an open source app. But being open source would make it user auditable so that we know what they are doing with our data.
Also out of the loop here, but is the plan for Cassia to truly function as Wine does and only handle system calls, or are they also going to include an x86 emulator?
I don’t know about “ethical” but justified yeah.
Certainly if media is not available for purchase I have no problem with people pirating it. But also if it’s not available in a reasonably accessible format. For example, I wanted to show my son the original TMNT show. I would have happily bought it on Vudu, Amazon or Play Movies, but it’s only available on iTunes. I have all Android devices and don’t even have a personal Windows device, so I would need to jump through serious hoops to get it working if I bought it.
Pink should be a much larger slice.
