But if the same thing were done by an AI that learned the work of a new artist who admired Syd Mead and honed his skills, who would protect the new artist?

    EU Just Changed Smartphones Forever
  • Yes, a long time ago it was common for smartphones to have replaceable batteries, but unfortunately, the mainstream models today seem to have built-in batteries. This time it is revolutionary in the sense that the regulation takes into account the right to repair and environmental issues.

    I'm very beginner of Linux server admin. Few days ago I set up snap version of nextcloud server app on my own Ubuntu VPS server, and I found that Snap system might be focused to build original file system hierarchy in /snap directory, and I felt a little weird about that.

    For example, Linux file system hierarchy is defined to set server app config into /etc/app/conf.d or so. But snap version app tend to set it into /snap/app/current/app/config or so. It sounds so complicated for me.

    So I want to know about how Snap is thought by others. I'm happy if you might tell me something here.
