Yeah, is there any way, when I am focused on a location, to see the streetview of that place easily?
For example, in this image, there's a red dot marking a location. I want to see the street view of exactly that location. Is there a way I can do that?
Third or all, the goddamn street view dragging never works reliably for me. On my desktop it takes 3 or 4 drags before it finally starts showing the goddamn street view, and it doesn't work at all on my iPad! I should just be able to right-click or press-hold somewhere on the map, select a "Street View Here" menu item and it shows me the closest street view to that point!
Yeah, I've been having trouble using the streetview UI recently, too.
You mean anything which "as a whole represents an original work of authorship" but "based upon one or more preexisting works" is not covered? Are you really going to say that a movie using Klingons isn't based on Star Trek evn in part? haha
Along those lines, I remember when Apple stopped using Samba (because of GPL3) I asked Andrew Tridgell if he was sad to lose users and marketshare. He said, "They weren't really contributing back code anyway, so it's not an issue." For Tridge, the project is what matters, not the raw number of users. He would enjoy working on it even if there were very few users.
Why? You didn't answer the question of the previous post. I'll put it here again for you:
Copyright law is written to be intentionally vague, and covers "original works of authorship fixed in any tangible medium of expression." Why do you think that creating a character wouldn't fit in the category of an "original work of authorship?"
ok, that's a reasonable place to start, desktops certainly aren't as good as they could be.
Do you think the problem is that there is the division of efforts? If Gnome were suddenly the only desktop available, would that make it a better desktop? Conceivably it could also give the project leaders a power-trip, and lead them into the false belief that whatever decision they make is correct, for example. As another possible counter-point, do you think having a single project could cause things to end up like IE6......without competition and thus completely stagnant?
You might not recall it, but there was a time when I would boot my Linux desktop, go downstairs to get myself a drink, and come back upstairs just about the time to login.

No, Linux's strength comes from its diversity and flexibilty. Linux is the dominant operating system in the world right now, and it's because of its flexibility that it was able to easily be adopted on platforms as different as bionic/android, and SLURM/Linux.
If someone tried to enforce their system ideology on everyone, then these variations wouldn't be possible, and Windows phone might very well be the main competitor to iPhone (all the OEMs wanted that....or something, and Google hit first with Android).
Oh, you're either deliberately misunderstanding copyright law, or your just haven't researched it very well.
Words, names, and short phrases may not be copyrightable, but a portion of a work can still be copyrighted. Character copyright is fairly well established, although it makes me smile when you insist so fervently that the courts follow you. You're cute.
Flatpak’s (Redhat's preferred alternative to Snap) developers have been communicating with technical conference presentations and blog posts and trying to build a dialog with application developers and distributors
That explains how systemd worked, too. Systemd talked a lot with the people who write startup scripts, at both redhat and debian. They tried to be responsive to their concerns, and give them what they wanted, which is why systemD succeeded.
Just as notable is who is missing from the dialog: the actual users. Which explains why systemd made startup-script writers happy, and a bunch of users upset.
Real unemployment (as measured by taking the inverse of the labor participation rate) is at levels not seen in this country since the great depression.

I don't think many compilers will emit a warning on that code because the assignment is surrounded by parenthesis.
Making something repairable also makes it more complex, more expensive and probably less reliable.
Yeah whatever. They can start with not using patented screwdrivers so people can't get them. A lot of this has nothing to do with reliability.
Any other user errors I can help you with?

On the other hand, Samba is a solid, portable, excellent project. As for me, I've been writing my own critique of systemd, looking at the benefits and drawbacks.
Claiming copyright here is misuse.

I think the amount of fragmentation on Linux tends to dilute efforts at fixing some problems.
Which problems specifically?
You might not recall it, but there was a time when I would boot my Linux desktop, go downstairs to get myself a drink, and come back upstairs just about the time to login.
Liar.

btw, although single words cannot be copyrighted, paramount owns the trademark for Klingon, too.
everything else typically associated with a Linux distribution has been thrown away.
Not really, run "adb shell" and you have a familiar unix environment.
Unification is what linux desperately needs

I don't know why you think that. Characters can be copyrighted, for explanation see here or here
oh, must have been someone else playing with your handle, then. Oh well.
If you were able to steal 10% of all the US dollars in circulation, it would cause the value of the currency to drop sharply.
Why? Wouldn't removing the dollars from circulation cause deflation? (Or if you spent them, to cause them to remain in circulation, of course)

Uh, it looks like it's at 1980s levels, to me
What's wrong with the standard pthreads API?
Not a joke, just a flamebait distorted title.
I realize there are some economic and technical hurdles
That's why.
It seems like this kind of fallacy.
To be honest, neither is coal mining.......
Big Pharma is one of the greatest evils the world has ever known,
Um, your evil measurement tool has serious issues and needs to be recalibrated.
