Your small glimpse into what old school YouTube could've been like if FuwaMoco was around at the time.

Afaik this got a shoutout from the doggos at some point but I haven't bothered to track down where.

The main screen is being streamed for free into a VRChat world (and a VR headset isn't strictly required to use VRChat):

The main stage stuff "needs reservations" but that might just be for the in-person stuff, idk. Probably best to check the VRChat and HoloEN socials or your local sapling if you need more deets.

Between when this was first posted (which is when I saw and saved it), the artist decided to change their handle, which is why the one in the pic won't get you to the artist's pages anymore. Not really sure why the sudden change lol.

  • A court has ruled a Hungry Jack's burger did not infringe on McDonald's trademark.

  • McDonald's argued its rival's product could confuse consumers and eat into its profits.

  • A scientist was brought in to weigh the two-patty burgers over the three-year trial.

McDonald's has lost its legal dispute with fast-food rival Hungry Jack's over its Big Mac lookalike burger the "Big Jack".

The American giant had claimed that consumers would confuse the Big Jack with the Big Mac and this would eat into McDonald's profits.

But Justice Stephen Burley ruled against the claim in the Federal Court today.

"Big Jack is not deceptively similar to Big Mac," Justice Burley said.

The MMD models have truly been a blessing.

In addition to not qualifying by most definitions of open source (as already mentioned), CC is not recommended for use in software: https://creativecommons.org/faq/#can-i-apply-a-creative-commons-license-to-software

We recommend against using Creative Commons licenses for software. Instead, we strongly encourage you to use one of the very good software licenses which are already available.

[...]

Unlike software-specific licenses, CC licenses do not contain specific terms about the distribution of source code, which is often important to ensuring the free reuse and modifiability of software. Many software licenses also address patent rights, which are important to software but may not be applicable to other copyrightable works. Additionally, our licenses are currently not compatible with the major software licenses, so it would be difficult to integrate CC-licensed work with other free software. Existing software licenses were designed specifically for use with software and offer a similar set of rights to the Creative Commons licenses.

Welcome to the statistically-likely club!

Honestly I was pretty content with the fees involved when I used it for Euros a couple years back. Afaik the fees aren't trivial but at least they're not steep (unlike e.g., using PayPal to do the same thing) - I didn't really feel robbed but it'll depend on what your expectations are!

I've used Wise (formerly TransferWise) for international transfers a couple of times. They use "mid market" exchange rates so tend to be on the cheaper side as far as total loss of value on a transfer (fees + exchange rate losses).

Admittedly it's been a couple of years since I last looked around at these services though!

It's still worth calling out and recording the lie :(

Regarding Fedia.io, it’s currently inaccessible as I’m working with developers to debug the problems and sadly symfony exposes way too much in debug mode

This instance does have its own !worldnews@aussie.zone community if you wanted to resubmit - should fit better in there!
