right, but you understand that people go other places besides the supermarket right? hence why I said "toy vehicle". If you are only using this for a single destination, then its not a general purpose vehicle, its a "toy vehicle" or "single purpose" vehicle.

> 28mph top speed

please no one buy this. I purchased a vehicle similar to this years ago, and while fun, the top speed was ALWAYS an issue. Even on surface streets, its too slow, so you end up essentially redlining for the entire trip, and even then its too slow. Unless this is purely as second "toy vehicle" for you, don't buy this. Get something that can go at least 40.

> once a single can is made, has an infinite supply at zero cost

The point is, the businesses are abusing the social contract. The unspoken agreement is, that the item is for people who cant afford it. The businesses can afford it. They just see that its free, so they are taking advantage of that fact.

Yes, some licenses explicitly allow the business to do that. However I don't think some developers take the time to actually think about what their license means, and they end up giving up more rights than they would if they had a better understanding. If you told an open source developer that even AGPL allows commercial use, some might be surprised by that fact.

> volunteering in a soup kitchen and then complain you didn’t get your money back or paid for your time in the soup kitchen

No, its not like that at all.

It would be like if you volunteered in a soup kitchen, where every single day, half of the patrons were individuals that couldn't afford the soup, and the other half were businesses that were taking the free soup, putting their name on it, and selling it. The first group of people I am fine with. Thats why soup kitchens exist, and pro bono exists. But once someone gets the ability to pay, they should pay. Thats why I support non-commerical licenses:

I don't like it when the sun comes up early. Unless you have really dark curtains, then you don't get to choose when to wake up. You wake up when the sun comes up. So if you stayed up late, fuck you, here's some bright sun at 6am.

Oh, and you're coming home for the day at 5 or 6p? Fuck you, here's some darkness. I can't understand how anyone would be against DST.

Looks fine to me:

    [[a.b]]
    c = 1
    d = [
       { e = 2 },
       { f = { g = 3 } }
    ]

You seem pretty quick to disregard TOML. I switched all my JSON and YAML for TOML. Do you care to detail what is missing?

I have to log into Gmail just to pass captchas. Every time I do it I die a little inside.

The war on drugs has ruined literally millions of lives:

with all due respect, I hope you fail miserably.

I think a big part of it is tards like Mark Otto:

that make changes without regard of how useful or disruptive they are:
