I put it to you that ideals may constitute a scratchable itch.
Uniquitous
Hey look! A valid military target!
I suppose the thing is, I personally wouldn't care much if anyone else used it or not, my itch has been scratched. If someone else finds it of use, great! If they need changes, they've got the code and can get crackin' on it themselves. Or, they can pay me to do it if we can agree on a price. Outside of that I have no expectations.
As I understood it, one of the foundations of open source development is scratching your own itches, then putting what you made up for grabs in case it scratches someone else's. There shouldn't be any expectation of support on your part beyond an email or two. The code's out there if they want to scratch the itch a different way. It's kind of a homesteader ethic.
I see no compelling reason to accept this "upgrade."
DM should have rolled for the player secretly if they didn't want to call attention.
LOL, I knew this sub was digging for old memes but bringing back actual red-baiting? chef's kiss
They're definitely part of the future, but Millenials and X'ers aren't quite done being the future yet either. We're all part of the future until we aren't anymore.
Rail infrastructure costs money to maintain. So do roads, for that matter. If this is the first step towards ubiquitous pollution-free air taxis, we should be cheering, not grousing.
