Last week I bought a used car. I got a title. I moved to Missouri in January, and I’ll be moving back out of Missouri in a month. I have insurance on it. I’ve been looking at the papers I still need online, and at reviews of the different office I need to go to. Apparently, I need info from the assessors office to show that...

You’re right, but only to the extent that the capital coming from your users is disproportionate. Some spaces have money coming from mostly those plebeian users.
So, I’ve been using FitNotes for a while as it’s the only app that I found that doesn’t have a nightmare privacy policy. However, the app is rarely updated and there are things I wish it had that I would love to add if it was FOSS. Wondering if there is anything foss alternatives?
It’s actually my main travel computer. I bring it to work with a Bluetooth keyboard and a little nreal glasses display if I need it. I find that the form factor reduces back and neck strain by allowing me to use different muscle groups. I changed the desktopofe controls to map to a bunch of keyboard shortcuts to make it so that I rarely need the keyboard. I mostly do coding and research on it.
What? First of all, Amtrak is often more comparable to air travel as far as alternatives go.
Second, those Amtrak delays are genuinely upwards of 5 hours. I had a trip leaving at 9 pm, and they had me waiting at that seedy train stop until 1am.
Not their fault though, it was Union Pacific’s fault.

Nobody does wildlife conservation better than hunters and fisherfolk. Midwesterners will install hundreds of trail cams and kill invasive species on their property for free, in collaboration with local agencies. Controlled burns, population tracking+management, etc, all for free, out of love for the land and the wild creatures. And to make it easier to catch the stuff they want.
African wildlife preserves that are funded by hunting licenses, just like US land, are more successful because everyone involved hates poachers for their own reasons.
I would be interested in licensing all of my posts, and comments (or any other applicable user-created content) under CC BY-SA 4.0. Is this legally feesible? How would one go about this properly? Is it enough to just state in a bio something like “All of this users posts are licensed under CC BY-SA 4.0”, or would I also have...
It sorta depends on what you hope to achieve. It wouldn’t be profitable to rely on the licensing in hopes of getting money from news companies or publishers, since you’re unlikely to have unique, viral info.
As far as training material for ai, it’s really not worth it. Legal precedent isn’t established enough. They scrape fully copyrighted books and news sites, and we don’t even know if those lawsuits are going anywhere. Other legal precedent for scraping for use in any data analysis or academic use, or even for commercial data analysis, pretty much allows us to scrape anything that’s public-facing.
