@foone Ok dont get me wrong I would like a CRT a week too, but where do you store all these? Im rly struggeling to just put the old thinkpads somewhere that I aquire on an about bianual basis...
#Thinkpad T60 mainboard replacement was a failure. Same symtoms as before the replacment :(
Thats exactly why I'm so concerned with my 20+ year old disc games running in wine. This hardware is dying left and right and there are no real good emulation options...
@faizalr mine does show a power LED when plugged in to the charger. But when I press the on button the LED turns of and nothing happens. Thats why I suspected a broken mainbaord. But now that I put a working (as far as the seller wrote) one in it and the same thing happens... the only thing I can think of is that the DC power jack is somehow broken. Its weird...
@Jain I’m more surprised that they got it in the first place. Open source work (in most cases) in Germany does not qualify for non-profit status as courts ruled some years ago (2015 or 2016 or something). But maybe mastodon is older than that.
@Jain I mean its not impossible but quite hard and depends a lot on phrasing.
“Our organisation wants to support the development of a alternative to SAP databases free of corresponding software patents" -> ruled by a judge to not be non-profit because it excludes the group of ppl wanting/profiting (legaly from) software patents
The german KDE non-profit is doing fine for decades now. I suspect the issue with mastodon lies in some of these little details.
@Jain oh and a german non profit is allowed to finance by other means than donations. You could take Patreons and sell gamer girl pee from your non-profit website all day long. How you use these profits is what counts.
@badlogic remindes me of that one big studio that proudly worked in rust for years but they droped it once their game moved to consoles. No console company is providing a rust compiler so they had to maintain the compiler and std library port themselfs.
